Blazestar retreats to the den he now shares with Bobbie, and although he gives the nest they bed together in a rueful look, he does not go to her now. She stands before him not as his lover, but as a member of his council, and when he meets the soft sage of her eyes, it will be with expectation. This is the first time she and Greeneyes sit before him and Orangeblossom, the first time they will add their voices to those who have served SkyClan for moons. Silversmoke, Slate, Johnnyflame, Twitchbolt, Greeneyes and Bobbie receive a gesture to sit in a half-circle. To his right will sit the ginger-splashed deputy; to his left, fox-pelted Dawnglare, gaunt but recovered, and near him, the apprentice who had stepped into his paw prints during his illness.
“This is a delicate situation, as some of you have already pointed out,” the Ragdoll says, curling his tail around his paws. “The new moon is approaching. All medicine cats go to share tongues with StarClan—but WindClan would prevent them all from going.” His lip curls. “Dawnglare, has StarClan spoken to you about this? Fireflypaw? Are we meant to allow WindClan to prevent us from accessing the Moonstone?”
He sighs, turning to the warriors on his council. “Slate called for war, Silversmoke for waiting until newleaf. I do not know what the other leaders will do, but I do not think we should act without StarClan’s guidance. Nor do I think SkyClan should act alone.” His blue gaze turns thoughtful. “The other Clans all share our outrage.”
