The NOT Heir Username: Aurrie Beaues
SoA Name: Kuleta'amani
Name Meaning: "Bring Peace"
Rank: Slave
Personality: Kuleta'amani is a proper lady, or at least she was raised to be. She was the first born, the eldest, and was groomed to take the place of her mother and father from an extremely young age. She was expected to be prim and proper, but was anything but in her earliest seasons. She was an adventurer at heart and a troublemaker in general, but her love for her family and pride surpassed this and she was tamed into being a proper representative of the pride as she neared her adolescent season. She is a knowledgable, soft spoken, yet firm creature with a sharp mind and equally sharp claws. She had what it took to lead and lead she did, assisting her parents in running the pride as she became a lovely adult and they were growing older. She made an excellent public speaker and often served as a representative for the royal family and council when dealing with other prides, as she had been trained to do. Her firm, yet understanding touch made her a prime choice to do so and her future in the pride was well received by most all members of her pride and their allies. While fierceness has always been valued, she had a knack for handling situations in a way that kept them from escalating to an all out brawl. The sudden change in her world has shaken her to her very core and, for the first time in her memory, she is truly unsure of who and what she is or what will become of her in the future. One thing is certain, she is furious and while she may act in a subdued manner, she craves the blood of those who stole her precious family from her. Her sudden position on the very bottom rung is difficult for her to process and being a prisoner in the lands she grew up in is nauseating at best. Her only comfort is the companionship of [Marakaraka], her personal bodyguard from cubhood, who found himself demoted right alongside her.
Prompt#: 3 - A combination of 1 & 2
Prompt Reply:
"I'm sorry I brought you in to this, Mara..."
"Think nothing of it, princess." The hyena lowered his voice, the title he had called her for many a season catching in his throat slightly. He still used it, only never when another was close enough to hear. Hell, they hardly had time to speak anymore at all. If there was anything Kuleta'amani admired about Marakaraka, and there was much she admired, it was his unwavering loyalty to herself and her family.
"I must think something of it. I brought you back to this. I was your future leader and I failed you."
"You couldn't have known. The priestesses saw nothing of it and if they did, they did not inform us. It isn't your fault. You can't keep blaming yourself."
"I know, I know..."
The pair spoke in hushed tones, neither offering the other so much as a sideways glance. They busied themselves in the dull, monotonous work that was softening hides to be used as bedding for royal behinds. Both were slaves now. Kuleta'amani had once been next in line to rule the pride and the hyena, who had served as her personal bodyguard since her birth, both had a rude awakening only a few previous nights before and now the pair, who once were inseparable, found it nigh impossible to share a few private words. The heirs, a slew of obnoxious little cubs, had been paraded in front of the pride. Crowley, in particular, had been announced as the little monster that would eventually take the throne in his father's stead... Perhaps hating them was unfair of her. The cubs had not wronged her. They hadn't murdered her parents, nor her siblings. She hoped dearly that perhaps someone had escaped, survived to live another day, but never ending doubt consumed her.
Though it had been easily a cycle of the moon since she had returned to the pride, it seemed like only yesterday. Kuleta'amani had left the pride in the company of Marakaraka and a few other guards, serving as an emissary to a pride that was situated only a few days' travel away. While there was uneasy peace between them now, they had fought tooth and claw in the past and the lioness was determined to keep the peace between them alive, be it through calm negotiation or intimidation. The talks, themselves, had gone over smoothly enough and it felt very much like a victory for the young heiress. What she and her convoy returned to, however, was nothing short of a nightmare. Death had visited her lands and her parents' bodies were on display at the borders, signaling the changing of an era. There had been no time to flee and though her guard had fought valiantly alongside her, many of them were mercilessly slaughtered. Her own life and that of her canine companion had been spared. She had wondered why, but now she knew.
They were examples.
The lioness sighed as the silence between them deepened, her paws pounding away at the soft hides. Her paw pads ached and she was bone tired, but she knew they could not stop until permission was granted. She'd already had her rear handed to her once for resisting. What was worse, they used her affection for the hyena to control her, causing him harm for her misbehavior. Perhaps that was why they allowed her to see him on occasion, to force her to see the new scars he wore, the scars she had caused with her insolence. They had no family to hold over her head, but her friends were the next best thing.
"This can't go on, Mara. I can't let it." Anger burned in her bosom, but she did her best to keep her voice even and low. Though her position within the pride had thus far been one of keeping peace, rage consumed her and indignation stung her. Everyone likes revenge at some level and she was no different. The injustices that had been done to her family, blood-kin and pride-kin, were simply too great for the once-princess to ignore.
"There's the princess I know." It pleased the hyena to hear her words and feel her discontent. It showed in his slightly wagging tail, which he struggled to subdue, yet couldn't completely control. She wasn't going to roll over and take it.
"Oi! Ya'll quit talking and keep working!" The sudden, harsh voice of their keeper caused the pair to wince and grow silent, yet a purpose dwelled in the lioness that found herself on the bottom. She'd have to climb her way back up or die trying.
