Shadepool had found herself more recently soaking in the water close by the stepping stones entrance to the camp, telling those that crossed her path and asked why that spot in particular that it was just the best spot to do so, a nice spot she could rest her head outside of the water and it got warm quicker due to the rocks. She couldn't say for sure if the rocks actually helped with the warmth, but it seemed to please those who had asked so far, and they had continued on their way and no longer asked questions. The bi-colored feline's true reasoning, however, was that it was the best spot for now to see her children come back to camp with their mentors. She knew they would do well, and that if anything were to happen that their mentors would come find Ravensong - and hopefully herself - as soon as they could, but she couldn't help but have that nagging fear in the back of her mind. They were no longer bound to camp, which meant that she was no longer part of their sole protection. How could she not worry when the tiny cats that she had raised for three moons were no longer sleeping next to her every night?
Worries melted however, as Shadepool heard the noise of cats coming back to the camp, and she looked up to see that amongst them was one of her children. Quickly she got out from the water and head back onto the island that RiverClan reside, pretending that she had not been waiting for at least one of her children to come back to camp, and instead quickly moved to her nest to pick out the old plant life that was dying. She couldn't help but look up when she finally heard the reeds parting, and watched as her daughter walked through, and it took all of two seconds before the mother couldn't help but to quickly make her way over to Carppaw, a quick lick planted on her head before she stepped back, a loud purr leaving her as a proud smile tugged at the corner of her lips. "How was training today? Did you have fun?" The questions came quickly before she went to pull her daughter to the side, quickly sitting down next to the apprentice. "Are you learning a lot with Snakeblink?" He was a good cat, and one she was glad Carppaw got as a mentor.
