Lions of the Outlands
Madoa is first seen playing with Tunu and Wema, until she is interrupted by Jasiri and Kion. She is happy to see her sister, and expresses shock at Kion's presence, realizing that her sister had been telling the truth. Jasiri introduces Kion to her, and whilst slightly nervous, she responds back positively. Kion eventually notices Tunu and Wema, and attempts to gently coax them out. Madoa reveals that all they have ever known are bad lions, hence the apprehension. She then explains the need for their watering hole to be returned for their sake.
After Kion defeats Zira, and returns the watering hole back to Jasiri's Clan, Madoa admits that she had her doubts, but adds that she is glad that Jasiri has him as her friend. The youngsters approach again and at first seem to be okay with Kion's presence. Kion tries once again to kindly reach out to them, believing them to be unafraid of him now. However, they run away again, causing Madoa to laugh Jasiri tells Kion to take it as a compliment, because he really is fierce after all.
