Mwanafunzi just nodded politely when the cheetahess gave her full welcome. His mind was thinking about rest ever since he mentioned it was a long day. Indeed, since he no longer was is in any danger of passing out from thirst, he realized he would pass out from exhaustion just as easily. His wandering mind picked up a name or two she said, but he didn't quite process the information she was saying. That happened when he was tired. He was about to turn and leave to go find rest when his mind finally registered something she said. Queen? Mwanafunzi looked over at cheetahess, who had given her name as Nasari. His earlier feelings of wariness towards her seemed to have a much more legitimate reason behind them now. Perhaps what he had thought of as a mysterious, fantastical nature was just the queen in her full regality. It would have been just as mysterious and intimidating to an unprepared Mwanafunzi as encountering a spirit. There were no kings or queens where he was from, and so he had no idea how they act. He would often laugh at the idea of monarchies. In fact, he never imagined he'd ever talk to one let alone be offered hospitality. Mwanafunzi realized that he wasn't just indebted; he was indebted to royalty. Did it mean he owed anything different than he thought he did earlier? Mwanafunzi didn't know, and it was a thought that loomed heavily in his mind. He would still pay his debts, but he didn't quite like the idea of being mixed up in the affairs of royalty. "Queen?" Mwanafunzi asked, just to be sure he heard right, but he knew he had. "Oh, my...um...uh..." he stutted. He had no idea what to do. Should he bow? Should he sing praises? Should he grovel? On any other day, if he were prepared, Mwanafunzi would probably act defiantly and treat the king or queen like any sort of commoner just to prove a point, but Nasari offered great kindness to the lion, and he knew at the very least he owed her his respect. "Forgive me, Nasari...um, Lady Nasari...I mean Queen, or Your Majesty," Mwanafunzi muttered out in a frantic manner, wincing at his failure to maintain composure, "I'm sorry. Is there some...protocol or something I need to follow right now? I'm not exactly used to conversing with royalty. Do I need to formally present myself to you or do something? No, I already introduced myself didn't I?" Mwanafunzi decided to shut up right there. He had the feeling he was digging himself a hole, and he didn't want to say anything that would put him on the wrong side of the monarch and take away his opportunity of resting his tired body peacefully. He was certainly doing a well enough job of embarrassing himself in from of the Queen. |

((OOC: Oh no, I don't mind at all. In fact, it felt like it was getting near the time for it to happen, in my opinion.)) Mwanafunzi said absolutely nothing. He gazed attentively and listened to all she said, and when she was done she immediately turned and disappeared into the night mist like the sort of specter he had originally mistaken her to be. For a few moments after the cheetahess was gone, the lion remained as if she had left some sort of impression behind that was still talking. Mwanafunzi blinked and sighed. "Royalty..." he said, his voice trailing off, "as intimidating as any spirit and infinitely more real." Mwanafunzi figured she wasn't trying to be intimidating at all, but with the unexpected realization combined with gravity such a title carried combined with his fatigue made it all intimidating to him nonetheless. The lion turned to face the burrows the Lady of the Valley pointed out, and he started on his way there. On his walk, he turned up to the stars once again. "This place just keeps getting curiouser," he mentioned to the sky, and he shook his head and smiled. He continued on his way until he made it to an empty burrow. He practically collapsed when he got in there, and he was surprised he made it there without collapsing at all earlier. Morning would come early, and with the morning would come Nasari. He hoped he'd at least get a decent amount of sleep by then. It felt as if he could sleep for days. He thought about how he'd have to face the rest of the Nekurans, and he thought if he would be ready for that. Mwanafunzi was too tired to care, though. The full force of his fatigue from his past few days finally hit him, and the lion was out before he could contemplate another thought. [Funzi sleeps] |
