༄༄ She had told her apprentice that they would go, and now more than ever they have reason to. The calico wishes that their visit were under better circumstances, but RiverClan has seen to it that she will never again know better circumstances. She will never again know happiness. There is… truly nothing left among the ashes that coat everything she loves. She is grateful to Sunstar, despite the anger that simmers in their bond, for allowing her to take anyone with her—for allowing her to go at all.
The calico’s bones ache from disuse as she rises from her resting spot, but she pays no mind to the pain. The deputy moves to stand under the Tallrock, calling out to the clan in a voice rough and thick with grief. "Pinkpaw." Her apprentice, grieving her cousin and aunt. "Sparkspirit." A warrior who she does not know well, but who has lost the same kin as her apprentice—an aunt and a sister. "Featherspine." A warrior who has fought hard for his name, and who is grieving Bluepool just as Scorchstreak is. He lost his brother recently as well, another cat gone too soon. Scorchstreak wishes that she could offer him some kind of comfort, but she can hardly muster the strength to keep herself upright. Holding up the weight of two cats would be too great a task even for the deputy.
"I would like you three to come with me to the Moonstone. By nightfall… we will return." Her explanation is kept short, but she trusts that her clanmates are intelligent enough to understand what her intentions are. WindClan has gone too long without gathering pristine grave markers for their dead; that changes today.
