Ravensong's den was empty once again, lungwort had since been distributed and their clanmates cured and back to their duties. It was almost as if a plague had not descended upon them at all, everything was in order and none would be the wiser to the trial they had undergone. His fur prickles as it dries, river water and blood stiffening his pelt into bristling points and he settles down to sit, forepaws sliding out from under him until he was laying down more comfortable and finally; off his paws, he felt the exhaustion seep in.
"...they killed me..." He said suddenly, the hollow feeling in his chest he could not identify now very clear once he had a moment. The adrenaline of the visit to StarClan and his panicked return had left him quietly refusing to face what was so obvious but now that he could simply rest there was nothing stopping the realization from rolling out violently. A current thrashing against the shore.
"I almost bled out before I got my lives...and then I did after..." And then immediately after recieving the last, a sharp pinprick of horror, he'd faded. Woken up. Realized where he was and dashed home. He thinks of Willowroot, so adamant she go with him that they briefly argued at the border, he thinks of WindClan ripping her into pieces. He shouldn't have gone alone, but he would not regret doing so. It was pure will and luck that kept him alive and any other cat would not have been so fortunate. A smirk formed on his maw, uncertain, the leads would probably be furious that not even an escort would have avoided this and how unapologetic he was that he didn't listen. Smokestar knows he should have, but his stubborness was the winner this once.
He grits his teeth, momentarily fighting himself on something before he utters a heavy sigh and the memory of the cats he had seen among the stars filters back. Be honest. Trust...
"...Ravensong, I....killed him. I killed Cicadastar..."
