{Alright, I'll start...} Emberblaze stretched in her nest as she woke up. Yawning, she looked around the den and was happy that none of the warriors in her clan were injured or sick at the moment. She walked into the main camp and eyed the fresh kill pile. "I hope there is some squirrel today."

Dewstar, who'd been thus lazily watching camp from her perch on a branch of the hollowed willow that stood off to the side of camp and made up the Leader's den. She spotted Emberblaze and leaped gracefully down, the soft dirt puffing around her paws. She greeted the medicine cat with a wave of her tail as she headed to her at the prey pile. She purred in amusement at what she could only thing to be the she-cat's search for squirrel. "Good morning," She finally mewed, as to not be a lurker.

Emberblaze looked up from her search for squirrel. "Oh, Good morning Dewstar, I didn't see you there." She meowed contentedly as she went back to her search for a squirrel. Spotting one, she snagged it in her jaws. "Squirrel is my favorite she mumbled around the squirrel. "What's up Dewstar?"

Dewstar smiled and led her to a nice spot before settling into a comfortable sitting position. "I've been thinking of the gathering, that's all," She responded, a twinge of worry carried in her words. Then, she added, "But there's no point in talking about that; we have time yet. And, Emberblaze, how are you?"

"Famished." Emberblaze joked with her clan leader. "Is there anything to worry about the Gathering tonight?" She asked as she took a bite from the squirrel. "Besides the border incursion?"

Dewstar's smile was fleeting. She shook her head and tried to regain her smile, "I'm just worried Leafclan will do something. The tensions last gathering were bad enough, I can't imagine what they'll be like tonight," She sighed.
(Since we're already three pages in and it's still morning of our roleplay day I'm moving the gathering to this roleplay night.)

Cherrysting nodded, "Alright." She padded toward the Hazeclan border, since they were nearest there, until she found the clump of Heather and Lavender that were intermingled, growing in bundles in the rocky soil. She could see the river up ahead, but paid it no mind as she carefully went to work. She nosed around the plants, bees humming as the gilded creatures mindlessly zipped around her form, paying her no mind. She found a patch that wasn't so infested and checked the leaves for plant disease and worms. She gingerly nipped an inch worm away and moved it to a harmless, leafy plant nearby before returning to her work. She went to work on breaking the stems and pulling the stalks away slowly so as to not disturb the bees. Once she'd gathered plenty lavender and heather, she began back to where Hawkstar was. She still needed Sweet Sedge, but she'd have to wait to go on down to the forested area on the southmost part of their territory where the soil was wet by the river and Sweet Sedge could easily grow.

Emberblaze nodded as she took another bite of squirrel. "Squirrelheart has become ever more concerned that her warriors will return injured after going to patrol our borders."

Dewstar sighed, "It makes me wonder how the clans have made it even this far." She wrapped her tail around her paws to hide the claws that unsheathed and slid into the dirt with anxiety. She was only two moons a leader and it made her skin crawl thinking about how much could go wrong and how many cats relied on her. She missed being able to discuss ideas with her leader, bouncing ideas off each other and how they made up for each other's weaknesses. She could do that with her own deputy, of course, but there was still a certain, well, certainty missing. Lotusstar had served as leader 36 moons and had lost her last life protecting a patrol bordering the southmost river of their territory where a wolf had strayed. It was old and put up a large fight. Lotusstar had died from bloodloss that night after fighting off the wolf. Dewstar, Dewheart then, had been on the patrol and had watched every. painful. moment. Her claws dug deeper into the dirt with the memory. She took in a much needed breath and fixed her thoughts back to the now.

{Is all good. I spend a lot of time waiting on replies. } Emberblaze felt the tension coming from her leader. "I know you and Lotusstar were good friends." She guessed at her leaders train of thoughts. "You miss her the most of any cat in the clan, but you must realize that you are incharge now and are doing a wonderful job." She ran her tail down Dewstar's back. "She would come to me often to bounce ideas and worries, and you can too."

Dewstar's body went taut as Emberblaze guessed easily at her thoughts and silently urged the tension away until it was mostly gone. "Thank you, Emberblaze. I might just take you up on that offer sometime."

Emberblaze dipped her head to her leader as she finished her squirrel. "I am here for you." She meowed respectfully. "I will always be here to help you." She promised. "I believe this will be an interesting gathering at least."

Dewstar's smile returned, though it didn't reach her eyes. "Thank you, and I suppose you're right." She stood and stretched before angling her ears toward the forest, "Would you like to walk with me to the marshes?" She invited, thinking the peace might do good to clear her thoughts and prepare her for that night.

"I suppose I could take a walk. Our water mint supply is low." She meowed as she stood up. "Is there anything on your mind?" Emberblaze queried, feeling that there was an under laying reason her leader wanted to go to the marshes.

Dewstar led the way out of camp. "I just need to clear my mind, think about what I'm going to announce at the gathering," she replied simply. She paused before adding, "And, I should start thinking about what to do if something happens between clans." As they walked in the direction of the marsh, she tried to organize her thoughts, "I don't suppose Starclan has said anything?" She asked, a twinge of hope intertwined in her mew. Just, a little guidance would be nice.

Cherrysting nodded, the bundle of herbs gripped in her jaws as she padded alongside her leader. She thought she noticed a flash of longing in her leader's eyes, but she couldn't be sure. "To bad we don't have a border with Stormclan," she mumbled, a hint of teasing on her voice. She didn't know why Hawkstar seemed unusually fond of Stormclan, but she could tell it wasn't nothing.

"Starclan chose you for a reason Dewstar." She assured her. "I have not heard anything since you were given your nine lives." She said a little down trodden. "I would say that the prey is running well and that any intruders on our territory will meet the strength of all Stormclan." Emberfrost meowed. "You just need o be confident and all will go well." She promised.

Dewstar sighed when Emberblaze had finished. It wasn't exactly encouraging to hear that Starclan hadn't spoken with Emberblaze, but the medicine cat did make good points. "You're right, our warriors are as strong as ever. If anything happens, we'll be prepared to counter it." Feeling a little better, Dewstar let the sounds of the forest fill her as forest began to change into marsh and pines and oaks were traded for willows and beach trees.
