Pulling himself from camp was meant as a last-ditch effort to spare them the worst of it. Despite the injuries that plague him and ache in their half-healed state, the lead warrior has taken himself to the far edges of WindClan's territory. Wind and water rage together in the gorge far below, in a rolling thunder so loud that it deafens his very heart. Standing at this edge, not even that is important. His heartbeat, his very life. A tempter's voice calls him ever closer, and Sunstride stands there, his paw sending a clump of dirt off the gorge's edge, into the raging waters. They seem higher than they have before. Not quite so deadly in their depth, but far more in their intent. Were there protective measures to be taken? Ways to keep the young and foolish from these ledges? Or would they always rest so plainly here, tempting others as they have tempted him? Though he is not young and foolish, he is certainly not old or wise. It calls to him, this...void of fate. They have had too much of fate in this last moon. It would do to spit some back out, a bitter pill to a bitter end.
Standing here, listening to this roar...it is a purging, he thinks. An end.

SUNSTRIDE. named for his coloration and his bold chasing of fate.
—— cis male, uses he - him. thirty-four moons old. warrior of windclan and former rogue.
—— cautious of clan life, but an apt learner. encourages close bonds between clanmates.
—— loyalty uncertain, cares for those surrounding him. undoubtedly closest to wolfsong.
sunstride is broad and bold– a creature standing above most of windclan, though not a beast beyond its borders, with fur that flames red at its base and deepens to a burnt amber with every whorl and stripe. his eyes, in comparison, are a pale summer's blue, still as bold as the rest of him. - "speech"
