He'd always thought Siltcloud and Caterpillarpaw were an odd pairing, even long before the warrior's brother had been thrown out of Chilledstar's den by Smogmaw. Long before the truth had spilled from the gray tom's mouth, before Siltcloud's compliance to Granitepelt's crimes had been known. He'd thought the pairing to be strange, thought it to be a concern as once ever-tired, patchworked limbs returned to camp.
And yet, Spectermask's discovery mourns. She begged for her mentor's forgiveness, for her to stay. She aided in the death of his friends, Siltcloud — aided in the death of too many. And yet, Caterpillarpaw mourns. Would he do the same, if Spectermask did similar?
A dark gaze finds the blind apprentice before she can find him, long limbs pacing toward the apprentice. " I'm sorry, " he marks his presence with, lacking the words to make any of this better. He's sorry that Siltcloud is bad; sorry that he is still an apprentice — that he hadn't become a warrior sooner to protect the kid from any of this. Caterpillarpaw didn't deserve any of this —but neither did Ghostpaw, Poppypaw, Tornadopaw.
