History:

Coming into the world a year or so after her brother Kelele (to Imammu and Kelly), Feynuus was lucky to be born during a time of peace. Her parents' pride, the Stone Lions led by Obbler, had ceased fighting with another group of lions after long years of bitter war. The Stone Lions united with the pride of Jafiya and Jet.
But although there was no war there was the aftermath - tense confusion, as opposing sides had to learn to live together without bad feeling, share hunting grounds and sleeping caves. It was a hard time, but it was all for the best.
Feynuus and her brother Kelele had relatives from the opposing side of the ended war;
Their father's brother, their uncle Kudan, was second-in-command to Jafiya and Jet. The brothers quickly resolved their differences (they'd never held much bad feeling to begin with), however Imammu's mate Kelly and Kudan's mate Lilly were not willing to forgive as easily. For a good while, the two lionesses avoided each other. Kelly would not give permission for Feynuus to play or even speak much with Lilly's grown-up cubs, Sakuni and Olea; Lilly would never talk to Kelly and their were cold stares and words from both. There was a terrible air of hostility whenever the lionesses were near eachother and Feynuus was too young to even guess what it was. She soon understood - luckily it wasn't long after that she managed to change things, quite by accident . . .
Fey had a gift for tracking - or rather, a strong streak of perseverance. This was from both her mother and father. From a young age, she was a dogged learner of her favourite thing. Her father, who was a scout in the army but also a part-time prey pin-pointer, taught her all he knew about tracking animals until he exhausted his store of knowledge - Feynuus had such a thirst for it. It was funny she never took to hunting in general as much, like her 'aunt' Sula - this baffled many lions she knew and pestered for tips, such as Queen Kiara (who had become one of the most renowned hunters in the lands). No, the tracking element alone was far more satisfactory to Fey, and she would ask every lion she could for the tiniest scrap of tracking wisdom to add to her collection. Her long, gangly legs also gave her speed so she coulds print along after anything with speed - and quietly.
For practice, Fey would track down almost anything; from beetles to bits of dust. And brothers; her favourite target was Kelele, much to his half-amusement, half-annoyance.
It was tracking Kelele one day that Feynuus made a grave error. She found marks in the dust and deciding these were scuffs made by Kelele's tail, she followed the trail - right into a den of large and poisonous spiders. She escaped with her life, lucky to be found, lying in delirium, by Lilly, who rushed her back to the pride faster than Fey had ever run or would ever run again.
Feynuus was treated for two spiders stings to her foreleg, one to her face. She recovered, after some days in agony, but this was all worth the final outcome: Kelly, grateful for Lilly's speedy action, forgave her daughter's rescuer, and from then on they were on good terms.
Once Fey grew up, she lost interest in her passion of tracking - at least doing it. She would still talk about it no end, especially to Sula, if the subject ever rose. After a few years being a scout alongside her father, she decided she wanted to become a mother; and in time she did, to Zeke, after she paired with a lion called 'I' who had come from an enemy pride and was not wholey a member of the Isu Keeney. Fey found her tracking skills in useful for following little Zeke if he ever wandered off - these were amusing years for her (in ways more exciting and certainly more enjoyable than her cubs years). She missed them when Zeke grew up and joined the Auni.
There were always opportunities for Fey to use her tracking knowledge again, such as
the hunts that take place for the Isu Keeney Pride - and on very special occassions, she goes with her mother and aunts to hunt with Queen Kiara, who is getting on in years. Fey looks for every opportunity to talk to Kiara on the secrets of good stalking . . .
Relation with The Lion King Universe:
She visits the Pridelands to hunt with Queen Kiara and her followers.
