Fedha'Kialo was growing fustrated with the days passing by and the results coming to a steady halt. How was it that he couldn't find one measley seer? More troublesome was that his dreams were all normal, and not once had he recieved a preminition. It worried him, to say the least. What if seers could lose their powers? His tail gave an uneasy flicker.
He was lounging on a lone rock, butted up against a thin and rather scragley looking tree. It didn't provide much shade, but not much was often better than none. He was not far from pride rock, it rose up in all its glory and beauty to his right. He didn't know what other lions thought so great about this place, he surely was more favorable to his own homeland.
Well, he didn't actually realize his family had been kicked out. It would be sad news, though he probably wouldn't find out for long months. He had a mission, and he'd be damned if he let home stand between him and his goal.
(Do you need to see him?)

[No, I found him in your journal. x3]
It was a new day for Uten. Today he was going to start acting upon what he felt was his destiny; bringing together the animals of Africa. An end to wars and uneeded killings.. Just the thought made him want to jump around and skip and do whatever else it was that happy lions did.
He was on his way to find Mfuto and Mag, his travelling companions, a let them know just how great everything was and what a good thing he.. no, THEY were going to do for the world, when he came to find a lone lion lounging on a rock. This was his fisrt chance!
"Hello there, brother!" he called out. If Uten had found this lion only a few days sooner, then he would be cowering in fear that he would attack him. Such was his old idea of what other lions were truly like. But today he was a changed man, he was.

Fedha lifted his head slightly and his blue gaze found the target that had spoken to him. His brows rose slowly at the older lion. "I am no brother of yours." He said cooly, tail flicking. He was well aware the other did not mean brother by way of blood. But still, the thought of a stranger being that friendly unnerved the juvenile.
"Though I greet you just the same." Maybe he knew of Na-be? Fedha was learning that it didn't hurt to tone down the 'better than thou' additude. Well, at least a little. Though he was younger than this lion he certainly acted more 'mature'... as in, less friendly and happy-go-lucky. Traits Fedha believed only belonged to fools, and he would never call himself a foold.

This other lion's attitude went right over Uten's head. Today, nothing was going to get him down. "Well, no I suppose not. But I believe that we're all part of some greater family. Everyone." He punctuted his sentence with a wide, friendly smile and sat down a little bit away from the other. After all, he couldn't really get his point accross if he was taking up someone's personal space, could he? They would just become offended.
"My name is Utengemano. My travelling companions just call me Uten, though. And it's my destiny to help spread the word of peace about the lands!" Clearly, he was just DYING to tell someone else about it ever since that lioness Leboya helped him realize it.

He was no god, that was for sure. Unless he had masked himself, some how. Fedha still didn't realize some gods could have no wings, and some could hide these wings. So he judged lions to be gods or not if they had sets of wings.
And he had no way to tell if the other was a seer, either. Really only those two types of beings intrested Fedha. "My name is fedha'Kialio. And I'd hoped that anyone who would meet me would use it to it's fullest." What he ment was, don't shorten it. "Peace, Utengemano? Words are lovely, but often are left with out rememberence. Actions, those are what effect others. Well, perhaps peace gives little to action and more to talk." A slow, amused smile twisted onto his features, his ears flicking forward as he sat himself up. His posture was more like a females than a males, if such things were easy to tell.

"Oh no, peace is more then just a word! It's a state of mind. Of being." Something that this Fedha'Kialio could probably use. Uten couldn't help notice that he seemed a little stuffy.. But it was his job to help fix that!
"I have been across just about every land you can imagine. I've lived with and experienced the lives and cultures of wild dogs, they drove me to abhor other lions up until just recently. And as far as I can understand, it's because those dogs weren't at peace with themselves!" All of it made perfect sense in his head, and of course, that meant it should make perfect sense to everyone else, too.
He looked to the sky above them, always smiling. "You see, if I can spread peace, then no one will ever be predjudice against anyone else again. Ever." Fedha'Kialio had one thing right about Uten; as wonderful as his dreams might sound, they were rather foolish, to believe that just he alone could change something that had been going on forever.

Why had such a cracked up lion run into him? "..." He opened his mouth to speak, but found himself a little speachless. Should he just play along with the quack so he'd go away, or hold strong to his own beliefs?
"Why try and control the minds of others, many do not wish to be at peace. Did you ever wonder what a selfish quest you're on?" Oh Fedha wasn't one of the best cases Uten should be trying out his 'peace' business on. Fedha enjoyed making it sound if other's ideas were stupid. Only his ideas mattered to him. "And do you realize how many others you'd have to get to anyhow?" His head tilted to the side slightly.

Hm, perhaps this might be a little harder then he thought.. If only there were flowers around here, then he could just make some flower crowns and give them out as an offering. This lion looked like he could use one.
"But I'm not trying to control anyone.. I'm only trying to show just how wonderful peace is, and then surely others will make it a part of their lifestyles." He looked back to Fedha, his expression not changing. He was far too excited to let some negativity get to him. "I'm going to try and find others to help me. Surely some will be so moved by what I have to tell them that they'll want to follow."

Fedha snorted lightly and shrugged. "Of course you will gain followers. Some are easily swayed by rosey words. They'll be sorry when the thorn pricks them though." What was that supposed to mean?
Anyways, Fedha decided he better cut to the chase. "Heard of any lions named Na-Be around here?"

"There are no thorns on my flowers, brother." He stated plainly, choosing to ignore that Fedha already voiced his opinion on being called 'brother.'
"Na-Be? No, that name doesn't sound familiar." Uten didn't usually spend enough time in lands to meet too many new animals. "Is he a friend of yours?"

Fedha's brows twitched slightly, as if his face wanted to express anger. He held it back though. "A rose always has a thorn hidden somewhere." He muttered, more to himself than the other.
"A friend... not quite. I am looking for him to teach me his ways." He said slowly. As far as he was concerned he was ready to end this conversation, if Uten knew nothing about what he needed.

"Oh, so he's a teacher, then?" Teachers were good. In fact, Uten felt that he, himself, was a teacher as well. Just probably not the kind of teacher that this lion needed at the moment. "Well, good luck in finding him, I need to go find someone as well!" He nodded, smile brighter then ever, and stood up.
"It was nice to meet you Fedha'Kialio." And with that, he bowed his head a little and went off on hiw own way. He had a feeling that maybe, their paths might possibly cross again in the future. And by then, Uten would be much better at this whole 'bringing peace to everyone' thing.
But now, he had to go to the jungle.
[I figured this would be a pretty good spot to close it. xD Don't want Uten to annoy Fedha even more or else my little boy might get his first scar or something. x3]

Fedha shifted a little and bowed his head good bye, letting himself mull over his own thoughts. Though a fool, fedha had to admit he was a little interesting. "Ah well." He murmered and shifted, curling himself in a laying postion so that he could nap.
(Aye its fine, thank you! They should meet again when Fedha is older xd )
