The lioness slowly sat up. Elbows shaking with the effort and the adrenaline coursing through her now. Looking to her attackers with wide ghostly white eyes. Despite the many scars that covered her body and face she had a gorgeous coat of vibrant colors and markings.

Her face came up level and just inches from the nose of a young and dashing adolescent male. His eyes were steely, like frozen water.

Thritt stared for about two seconds before jerking back in surprise. However she didnt cry out or even motion like she wished to escape back to any awaiting pride. Just staring at the new lions face silently.

Thritt didn't get very far. The small movement backed herself right into the very solid chest of the one who had tackled her casting them in shadow.

Thritt looked up. Jaw dropping slightly.

She had been right in making the assumption they were huge but for just how much she couldn't have been prepared for. Her head, even craned upwards in this position between their front legs, just came to brush against the tips of a pair of very formidable fangs that hung from their top jaw.

They looked down at Thritt now with something of disdain in their eyes.

" Sorry - did she hurt you?"

Thritt lowered herself to the ground submissively. Looking over when the male spoke again.

Damn right it hurt-

"N... no. Just surprised me."

" Fryst back off a little-"

The lioness, whose name was Fryst, took one large step back.

"........ Wh.. who are you? This is, is Nazzor's territory. You shouldnt be here-" She stood up slowly again. Tail tucked low against one of her legs and brushing a scar.
"Its not safe-" Hell it wasn't even safe for her.

" Oh we're quite safe, I assure you." He sounded confident alongside cocky. Didn't he know what he was getting into?

" Oh that - sorry I made a dick of myself didn't I? I'm Korol. King Korol."

He really made sure to emphasize the 'king' part, his voice going over the word smoothly.

" And she is Fryst."

Fryst snorted distastefully

"King?" Thritt blinked. Wondering why a pride would be traveling so far out, and with such a young king to top. He could see her thoughts racing as she looked him over. "Thats even more reason to leave.." The thin lioness said with a shake of her head. With a bit of a shaky step she walked off a bit and pointed with her paw.
"You should go that direction, its safest."

His head turned in the direction of her paw for a bit before turning back to her. He didn't move.

Looking at the pair of them, Thritt was able to discern that neither were from here not by a long shot. Both's pelts were longer, of different texture, that made it grow longer in different areas like the tips of the ears for Fryst. Both had a large pair of canines to boast but in Korol's situation that made up for his lack of tail which was just an attached nub. Shameful.

" So, you must be from around here ?" Korol guessed, Wasn't safe for one this young, especially a female, to be out on their own so he was able to make a deduction. " Miss...uuuh...-"
