The young cat lay with his head down in his paws in front of the medicine den. The process of grief came to him in waves. It reminded him of how thunderstorms could stop and start up again so suddenly. This was a moment where he felt almost perfectly at peace. Maybe, he wondered, for a healthy mind, some sort of blank thought was needed to process trauma. For three moons he had been taught to heal the body, but there was no way to heal a heart or head.
Ravenpaw lifted his chin up when another cat passed by, crossing over his line of sight to disappear into another den. But he had only imagined it, following the phantom image of a cat that had not existed. Unaware that his mind had conjured up this image, Ravenpaw sighed dejectedly, thinking he had been overlooked again. He did want to be alone, but at the same time he selfishly desired company. His life was at a pause. He couldn't move on until he let go of Beesong.
He decided to seek out the last older role model he had, even if he had been mean to her as a kit.
"Hazecloud?" He asked softly once he had located the warrior. "Will you come with me to get some herbs? am afraid to go out on my own..." An accident... that was all it was. Gloompaw and then Beesong.
