Beauty was a relative term that Vienna tried to instill in everyday life. She saw beauty in the birds, the rain, the bog, hybrids, cubs, and the hope of a better tomorrow. In her mind, it was thanks to the Gods that they had such a wonderful place to call home.
After going through her morning prayer ritual, she started off the day under her mistress' orders. Cari was a strict, harsh Leotah who was an excellent huntress in many ways. She was just as proud to drag home a large Water Buffalo as she was a struggling pure breed. It was Vienna's job to clean the kills, as well as to settle the minds of the newly joined slaves. While some snubbed their nose at her, she was pleasantly content to do Cari's grunt work.
At the moment, however, she was at a lose. Cari was off visiting with her father, who was rumored to have a pure bred son, and had yet to give her slave any orders. The lioness stood at the waters edge, her face down cast. Maybe she should talk to someone...? See if they needed help?

Nodding along with him, she set about the search, her paws ghosting over the ground, hoping not to destroy any feathers in the process. "I will have to keep that in mind. I wouldn't want to ruin any project that you're crafting." As curious as she was, she couldn't ask without acting out of her station.
"You haven't found any?" Catching herself, Vienna tamped down on her curious side, but never did she seem any less warm. She wanted to help him because it was in her nature, not because it was expected of it. Her eyes brightened considerably when thanked, and that sweet little smile he gave was more than enough thanks for her, anyway. It showed her was genuine; something that she prized in others. "Vienna. My name is Vienna, and you needn't thank me; I'm happy to help."
As she searched, her eyes caught a familiar shape, and after some careful pawing under wet grass she pulled up a medium sized blue feather. "Will this one do?"

For quite a while Vienna search, pulling out a few more blue feathers, and even a nice shade of tan, tipped with black. From some type of predatory bird, maybe? It was a shame she couldn't track down any of the brighter feathers from her homeland. The birds there were in a vast array of bright reds, brilliant greens and dazzling yellows. Surely he would have been more pleased with those.
"I think my lucks beginning to run out," She mused, moving back closer to him, with the last of her finds still in paw. "I started off strong, but it tapered out, I suppose."

Vienna couldn't help a little flushing blush at being complimented in such a way. It was so good, to have ones work validated! And by such a kindhearted soul, at that! "Oh no, thank you for the opportunity. I adore helping others, in any chance that I get." And it was true, though she rarely got the chance, it seemed.
"You needn't repay me, Chozi. Just allow me to help you out on the next hunt, and maybe combined our eyes can find twice as many feathers." It would give her a purpose, and hopefully help him out as well! Oh, how lovely it would all be.
"If you'll excuse me, I think it best if I returned to my Mistress. She should be returning home form her hunt some time today, and I should see about prepping the den for her arrival." Vienna bowed her head, and smiled brightly. "It was a pleasure working with you this day, Chozi. May the Gods continue to smile upon you."
Straightening her paws, the lioness turned to leave, keeping a little happier sway to her hips than was there before.
