╭ ╯The Tribe of Winding Caves╰ ╮
Wise and Unflinching Introduction Before you lies the home of a hidden tribe, stretching from a Karst within the mountains to well under the clan territories and even beyond these borders, the full extent is only known to the Tribe of Winding Caves themselves. The great limestone caverns eat into fairly unreachable mountain sides, primarily notable alongside the gorge where faint shadows can sometimes be seen flickering among the stalagmites, though sound is drowned out by the roaring river below. Meticulously crafted tunnels carve through the ground unknown by the clan cats above, and the cats of this tribe have made sure to keep it this way. The territory provided is limitless and ever expanding but not without dangers of their own.
Current Season
Time of Frozen Water
Characteristics
The cats of The Tribe of Winding Caverns are clever cats, if not somewhat rigid in their traditional values and secretive by nature. They have long lived here, since before even the clans themselves of which they aided in settling into the harsh environments, and take pride in this heritage -- ever expanding and seeking new ways to preserve their way of life independent of the lands above. The Karsts and tunnel systems provide them a unique expanse of territory that ever parallels but rarely meets the the other clans, though they have many ways of keeping tabs on the surface Dwellers. This is often through well disguised openings bearing herbal mixture and prey components to hide any scent of non-clan cat, a clever mastery unique to these cats alone. These cats come in a variety of colors, shapes and sizes, though their duties are often decided long before they are strong enough to venture from their mothers based on the characteristics of their forms and coat colors. The nature of their Karst home also gives them unique access to rare herbs as well as improved senses in the darkness but has also made them somewhat sensitive to bright light.

Tribe History Long before the present clans ever set food on the territories now claimed by Mossclan and Galeclan, The Tribe of Winding Caves had long since existed beneath the earth and within the Karsts that had formed and expanded through the mountain areas now refered to as "The Gorge", the roaring river ever present in splitting the mountains in two. Even back in those days, the cats of the tribe rarely ventured to the surface, that which they could catch in their sunless home plenty to support their tribe, which is to say that the surface remained accessible but always treated as though a strange realm ill-befitting them.
Although, grateful for the lands provided to them, they desired nothing but the lives they lived and perhaps this with the greater need of the cat known as Moss who long travelled for a new home was what led to the signs from their ancestors, imposing upon them the desire to aid these wandering cats. Thus did the Tribe of Winding Caves reach out to their homeless bretheren and aid them in establishing a home of their own.. the only thing they desired was for the Mossclan to pay this good deed forward and leave the Tribal cats in peace. Thus did Mossclan keep this promise until the name of the tribe vanished from the tales told among the clans, but Starclan would not forget their promise and thus was Galeclan formed, ever unaware of the cats that lived beneath their very paws.
Current Plot
"From the ashes of betrayal, a new threat arises and the aid of those below may bear sought redemption and once more lay the roots of a new home."
More Details coming soon.
Tribe Holidays The holidays Mossclan would develop were heavily inspired by the tribe's own festivities, they all too keen to share ideas in the formation of the clan. As such, they have a number of holidays, many similar to those carried out by the clans.
Night of Rememberance
A night during the end of the time of frozen water in which the cats of the tribe pay tribute to important events that occured during that year and pray for good tidings in the next.
The day prior is spent collecting prey for a feast as well as baubles such as smooth stones or flowers, often in rememberance of a fallen cat of grat value to the individual cat. During the night, these gifts are placed within the river just outside the camp's entrance, the belief being that these items will be carried away to where their ancestors await. The cat will then feast and share tales and stories of their ancestors and those they have lost. Elders in particular seem to enjoy regaling kits and apprentices with tales of old.
Tales of the formation of the clans are also popular stories.
Day of Affections
This is a celebration help mid Time of Colored Water celebrating the bonds of love, friendship, and loyalty within the tribe as well as share gratitude to those who have made a major impact on a cat's life.
This is a small celebration in which all clan members are encouraged to hunt for some kind of gift for another cat they care for, whether it's a bond of Romance, Family, or friendship. The gifts can be anything from prey to flowers and so on and are often picked out of sentimentality to the cat, or cats, of their choice. It is also common for kits to be concieved around this time of year.
Day of Competition
An event taking place in The Time of Calm Water meant to allow tribe members to show off their skills in friendly competition and reinvigorate themselves in preperation of the rest of the year.
Cave-Guards, Prey-Hunters, Tunnel-Diggers, Whisper-Seekers, To-bes, Elders and so on will gather for a series of competitive games in which their skill will be tested against one another -- separated by Age groups to prevent unfairness.
Elder sports usually bear some light work outs to allow the old cats to stretch their legs and prove who is still the most spritely whilst the larger majority of their games will be knowledge-based games.
All others, of each age group respectively, will engage in strenuous physical games in the form of races, mock-battles, climbing, fishing, hunting, and leaping will be played to showcase a cat's talent in these areas.
Territory
 The Tribe of Winding Caves is primarily located within a karst deep in the mountains located in the northern part of Galeclan's territory, primarily referred to as "The Gorge" to clan cats. This is also where the Tribe's camp can be located, though deeper inside. Unbeknownst to the clan cats, the tribe expands well under the moorlands in a series of tunnels and small caves dug by paw which allow them to easily travel the territory unknown where they will also occasionally catch the rabbit, hare or mouse that burrows into the earth. Some tunnels lead into Mossclan territory, however the wet earth and numerous lakes have made it fairly unsafe and thus most tunnels have been left to collapse in that territory.
The Tribe Camp
 The Tribes camp is located in a large hollow only accessible through a gap in one of the cave walls. Whereas most cats can easily squeeze in and out, Elders do tend to struggle as they get on with age. Just outside of their camp is a stream that flows out into the mighty river below the gorge.
-- The Teller of Pointed Stones Den; Two fair sized boulders lay over one another creating an entrance into the carefully dug den inside. It is fairly spacious as much of the den houses the Tribes herbs, most of which are planted and thrive in the darkness while others are carefully stored. Heirs between 8-12 moons will reside here as well but will leave to the Adult's den when they reach the appropriate age.
-- Adult Cat Den; A den where all cats above the age of To-Bes will rest, this includes Heirs above 12 moons. The den is partially built into a stone wall but decends into a large space within the dirt.
-- To-Be's Den; Like the Adult's Den, the To-be's den is partially dug into the stone walls but makes a sharp decline into an expansive earthy den.
-- Nursery; Due to the alignment of rocks, the Nursery features only a shallowly dug out den, the rocks above allowing plenty of overhead space. The den is also padded with various soft materials besides moss, mostly including down feathers of birds and fur.
-- Elder's Den; A fairly expansive den that is always carefully maintained to assure the damp natures of the caves do not aggrivate the Elder's old bodies. A small crevice in the back collects water from a dripping crack in the ceiling, providing the elders an easily accessible fresh water source.
Notable Locations
The Karst; Located around the gorge, the mountains are underlain by limestone which has been worn away by sources of water. This has created a large system below the mountain featuring caves, stalagmites, sinkholes and various channels of water.
-- The Gorge; A narrow valley etched into the mountains with a river flowing beneath it. Lower in the valley are open faces that lead into the Karst. They are aware of the bridge that runs above them, and typically seek not to be seen by those crossing it, but otherwise care little about it.
-- Twoleg Mountain Camp; Although located on the mountains, the Tribe cats never travel above ground, let alone this high in the mountains, and though they are aware of twoleg activity, it almost never appears close enough to affect them.
Moorlands; Whereas the cats of the tribe have no use for the moors above, they have a variety of tunnel systems below that alow them easy travel from one area to another and Prey-Hunters will often use the tunnels to hunt burrowing prey such as Rabbits, Hares, and the rare Mole.
-- Heather Beds; A good source of herbs that cannot otherwise be grown in the Karst. However, since this does require coming above ground to collect the herbs, it is very rare and generally based on urgent necessity. Most herbs, however, can be replaced with alternatives or simp;y found closer to home.
-- Sunning Stones; As above ground objects, the sunning stones hold no value for the tribe, however, tunnels have been dug up to small crevices against the stones that Whisper-Seekers will often use to listen in on conversations from clan cats in the area without detection.
-- Galeclan Camp; A carefully guarded secret between the Stoneteller and the Whisper-Seekers, certain tunnels have been dug beneath Galeclan Camp that allow them to hear the Clan in their most secure place. These tunnel 'openings' are located in various locations around the camp but tucked in places naturally unseen.
Twolegplace; Generally avoided save for unique herbs only found in twoleg gardens, the tunnel systems extend under certain known gardens containing these herbs. Tunnelling in the area is fairly uncommon, though, due to the tendency to run into strange twoleg contraptions under ground or hit blocks of stone and wood.
-- Forest west of the twolegplace; Although not as common as the Moors, tunnelling under the forest is fairly common and provides Prey-Hunters access to mice, voles and various burrowing prey that find their ways into the underground. However, Tunnel-Diggers must be careful not to tunnel into Fox or Badger Dens as well as roots of large trees and bushes and Prey-Hunters must be careful not to run into a stray predator that may have dug into their tunnels themselves. A number of herbs can also be found here in dire circumstances.
-- Twoleg Farm; Tunnels under this area tend to have a lot of wiry roots that, although not difficult to cut through, tend to be a nuisance and the dirt can be to soft for proper tunnels closer to the surface; Primarily under the Mouse Fields. As such the possibility of the mice burrowing into the tunnels is often unlikely and not worth the trouble. However, there are certain tunnel systems that lead to a small garden closer to the Farm house where certain special herbs can be collected, much like the twoleg place gardens.

High Ranks Teller of Pointed Stones
[Peak] That Scrapes Sky | Little meow meow | 108 Moons | Tom
A tom with a sand-colored tabby coat with a white patch of fur over his nose and pale green-yellow eyes.
Peak is a wise old tom who has led his tribe for moons and cares very deeply for his tribe while also treasuring the traditional values they have long since upheld. He is known to be a stern but compassionate cat treating his tribesmates with kindness and fairness. Although he's been known to be a bit more forgetful in recent moons, he is still a deeply devoted cat and follows the signs of the tribes ancestors faithfully.
Image | Backstory
Heirs of Pointed Stones
[Flight] of the Black-Winged Beetle | bluewonder | 8 Moons | She-cat
Flight is a mostly black tortishell she-cat with brown and cream ginger tabby markings hidden throughout her long dark fur. Her eyes are a hazel that contrasts against her dark coloration.
A bright and imaginative young cat, Flight is driven by a spirit of inquisition. She loves to learn everything new, from battle moves to herbs to parts of their territory. However, she can also be somewhat... flighty. As soon as her attention span is worn out, she moves on to the next thing, seemingly unable to dedicate her attention to anything for more than a few heartbeats. She also is aloof when it comes to some social cues of her clanmates, often not picking up well on subtlety or reproach. She often doesn't seem to care if she's offended someone- or maybe she just doesn't realize? And she tends to ignore boundaries or rules, not out of malice, just because she doesn't think twice when she has her heart set on something. She tends to just prefer being in her own world of imagination to the present. These things being said, some wonder why the ancestors would choose such a cat for heir, but others believe she can come into her own as she grows... though perhaps with a little extra discipline in her training.

Cave-Guards
[Pebble] That Rests In Stream | 🐦silvermoon2🐦 | 25 Moons | Tom
Brown tabby tom with yellow eyes
Pebble is a calm, quiet-natured tom, unlike his chatty sister. He thinks things through before doing them and only really talks with close friends and his family, though this doesn't affect his contribution to the Tribe.
Backstory
Shadow Cast From Tall [Mountain] | Little meow meow | 68 Moons | Tom
A massive tabby tom with thick black markings and sparce creamy brown fur, his eyes are a distinct hazel color.
Mountain is serious and ambitious with unfaltering loyalties to the tribe, and though his intentions are well-intended, he is not as clever as many of his fellow cats and can come off very forceful and reckless in temperament. Although not fully without humor, his intimidating and stern demeanor can make it hard to tell when he's joking or being serious, and he has more often than not been known to be frightening to his softer-hearted tribes mates by mistake. He tends to keep his feelings to himself, though not his opinions, and sees them as a source of weakness and vulnerability he is uncomfortable bearing even for his closest family members and companions. However, he does seem to have a softer spot for his own children during their younger moons and can seem overbearing in these instances.

He is more than willing to risk his life in order to keep his clanmates safe. He has a soft spot for kits and hopes to have his own family one day.

Prey-Hunters
[Fern] Casting Shadows Below | Little meow meow | 45 Moons | She-cat
A thickly furred she-cat with a pale sand-colored coat and clear green eyes. She has long limbs and a distinctly elongated face.
Fern is a rather proud and assertive cat with a tendency to act with arrogance and haughtiness, partially due to a privilege upbringing as the Stone teller's daughter. As such, she can be a little difficult to get a handle on, being emotionally driven and heavily opinionated as well as equally stubborn and pig-headed. Even so, she does have a kinder side towards tribe mates she feels endeared towards but seems to bear a dislike for the clan cats, feeling as though they have long since overstepped and caused needless violence. It's fairly well known it is only the respect for her father that keeps her in line in many regards and that without his influence she would be very difficult to keep in line.
Image | Backstory
[Sun] That Sets Behind the Mountain | Shadowfire | 17 Moons | She cat
Bright ginger tabby she-cat with amber eyes.
Sun is friendly and nice, and has more boldness than other cats. Maybe that "boldness" make her mean and stubborn to the other cats. She totally refuse and rage if she is not invited to a new journey.
Backstory
[Mist] That Falls In Morning | blu | 40 Moons | She-cat
A long haired she-cat with gentle yellow eyes. She has a softly dappled black & grey coat with a dark face and long legs.
Mist is a rather poised and serious she-cat with little patience for failure or disobedience from to-bes. Having had to prove herself many times over, she has now become an extremely capable and skilled hunter, and she enjoys the thrill of the extreme landscape and mountain weather; at her happiest when she can turn her face into a strong wind and forget everything else. Despite being serious, she is always fair and level-headed, and will rarely lose her temper completely. Her only soft spot is for kits and for her family and mate.
Image | Backstory
[Storm] That Tears Leaf | Little meow meow | 45 Moons | Tom
A slender, long-legged diluted calico tom with white fur and mottled patches of gray and pale ginger, his eyes are a vibrant hazel color.
Storm is known to be an adaptable and level-headed cat, but is equally so a rather easy-going tom with a tendency for playful dramatics to bring up the mood with those around him if a situation is not too dire. As a more sociable tom, he greatly prefers performing his duties along with others but can come off as clingy and even sulk if left to his own devices too long.
Image 1, Image 2 | Backstory
[Eagle] That Rides The Wind | 🐦silvermoon2🐦 | 25 Moons | She-cat
Brown she-cat with white markings, especially around her face, she also has yellow eyes

A large, long-haired Tom cat with a unique marking: one side of his face is ginger and the other is black, split down the middle to form a distinct line.
A happy and eager young Tom, Lightning is a well-adjusted cat with a strong sense of wrong and right. Although occasionally teased for his markings, he mostly ignores these comments and takes pride in his appearance - and is actually quite confident and flirty. The Tom can be serious when needed but is generally quite loud and loves being the center of attention, making jokes and always attempting to impress the other cats.

Whisper-Seeker
Distant call of rushing [Wind] | blu | 10 Moons | She-cat
An almost identical copy of her mother Lichen, Wind has a short-haired brown pelt and a long, elegant tail. Aside from the hazel eyes she inherited from her father, the similarities between mother and kit make it difficult for many to tell the two apart from a distance.
The similarity in appearance between Wind and Lichen means that the young she-cat often views herself as the shadow of her mother, struggling to find a strong sense of individuality and belonging amongst a tribe that sees her as a predictable copy rather than as a unique cat. Strong willed and talented, she has often felt that her worth is tied to her skill, making her jealous of anyone who seems to be doing well. Deeply insecure, Wind also struggles to make strong friendships as she often overthinks her interactions.

Kit-Mothers & Kits Kit-Mothers
[Lichen] that Creeps across Cave Walls | bluewonder | 56 Moons | She-cat | Whisper-Seeker
Sleek and streamlined dark chocolate she-cat with an thin, angled face and eyes the color of green lichen. Larger ears, and a long tail.
Lichen is a quiet, calm, and collected she-cat. She is duty-oriented and brave, and loves to serve her tribe. Her natural calm nature and cunning mind made her role as a Whisper-Seeker seamless transition, and she tended to excel at training in her to-be days. She almost always thinks before she acts, and tries to maintain peace where possible. However, Lichen isn't afraid to unsheathe some claws if needed. Lichen has born two sets of kits in her life, and while she loves them all dearly, motherhood was never a path she desired, and she can often act cold and distant towards them.

Kits
[Shift]ing Ground from Tunnels Below | bluewonder | 2 Moons | Tom
Shift is a broad, dark black and brown tabby tom with very long fur, large fluffy paws, a plumed tail, and tufted ear tips. His eyes are dark amber.
Shift was born to Lichen, a she-cat who tended to care little about forming deep emotional bonds with her kits. That being said, he often felt like he had to fight for attention and love. Shift therefore is a hard-headed, competitive, and often cranky little tom. He likes to challenge others where he can, and tries to prove he's the best through skill. He tends to have a surly personality, and feels like the world is out to get him, even when things objectively aren't terrible.
Image | Parents; Lichen that Creeps Across Cave Walls and Shadow Cast from Tall Mountain
[Bramble] Bush Where Berries Grow | Little meow meow | 2Moons | Tom
A black and brown tabby tom with long, thick fur that makes him appear larger than he is and large, strong claws. He has rather striking vibrant amber eyes.
Bramble is an introverted young tom who dislikes being the center of attention and often seems quite paranoid and secretive. He does have some more pessimistic views and fears that tend to make him a melancholic conversationalist, though his tendency towards being more on the quiet side often spares his clanmates the brunt of his negativity. He is very emotionally driven, as a result, which can make him react to situations rather impulsively and predictably and struggles to let go when it comes to slights against him -- tending to take things to heart more than is often intended -- but he is quick to relent to others in order to avoid excessive conflict.

Sun woke up, with a pretty messy fur. She wanted to sleep more, but her duty it's hunt prey for the clan. She padded outside the den and found out that her brother passed the whole night guarding the camp. She called: "Rock!"
Rock was tired, he was awoke and passed all the night guarding the caves. He closed his eyes but, heard his sister's call and answered: "Huh, Sun?"

(Super happy we're getting started on here! And all good for Pebble to mentor Lightning I'd also love for Mist to have a mentee if any hunter to-bes join ) Lightning (Camp, open)Lightning, who had been sleeping peacefully curled in his nest, was slowly awoken by the sound of voices outside. He groaned in annoyance, still tired from his last training session and willing himself to fall back asleep. After a few minutes he groaned again and got to his paws, padding heavily out of the den. His fur was sticking up all over the place, and as he emerged into the clearing he dropped down onto his haunches to groom himself. Mist (Camp, open)Having just finished her meal, Mist sat quietly at the side of camp, observing Rock and Sun as the siblings greeted each other for the morning. She'd seen the tom sleeping when she'd woken up earlier, but had decided to let him rest, knowing how hard it was for Caveguards to stay up all night. |

Mountain♂ From the dark opening of th Stoneteller's den came the massive dark form of Mountain, his broad shoulders barely seeming to slide through the narrow gape of the entrance. Even despite the sight, he didn't seem concerned his hulking form wouldn't fit, he never did. Nevertheless, freed from the enclosure of the den and off to he side now, he stretched his strong limbs, muscles rippling under his thick tabby fur. Once he deemed himself ready to move on, he headed for the camp entrance, primarily the guard post where he now saw Sun and Rock conversing.
"Rock." Mountain stated directly, his voice deep and as mildly threatening as it always seemed, though it was hardly an intended affect. "I'm to relieve you from guard duty by Stoneteller's orders." he explained, certainly not paying mind to the fact he was very well interrupting the two siblings morning greetings. Storm♂ Location; Tribe Camp
With Mist
blu With morning well and surely past the early marker, the dilute calico form of Storm was finally waking from his own slumber, immediately noticing the long cold nest beside him. It seemed his mate had already awoken that morning and disapeared from the den, truly a tragedy of untold proportions -- or so he'd dramatically tell himself. As he departed the comfortably dark space, he took note of his clanmates among the clearing, including the newly rising apprentice. He'd assume Lightning would be collected by Pebble soon enough for training, though he couldn't remember if he'd seen the Cave-guard if the den or if they'd long since awoken.
Nevertheless, this wasn't his concern at the moment and he smoothly leapt down to the cavern floor, and immediately made his way toweard's Mist. "Oh how cruel of you..!" he exclaimed with the dramatics he was known for, "To leave me poor, poor Storm, among the cold lonely moss..!" as he added those words, he dropped onto his side as if wounded so terribly on an emotional level from such a horrible betrayal! However, the playful expression was clear on his face as he glanced up at the lovely she-cat, an audible purr rumbling in his chest. (I'll be sure to keep Mist in mind for an apprentice when one pops up )) |

Fern♀ Upon a fairly large boulder adjacent to the Elder's den lay the sandy form of Fern, her front paws resting over the half eaten body of a mouse she was still working her way through. The morning had been fairly calm, the Prey-Hunter having spent much of it on the hunt before returning with a few decent pieces of prey, one of which being her current meal. Although the uneventfulness might have been boring to younger cats, Fern enjoyed the quiet, and being able to relax and watch her fellow tribesmates go through the morning motions was fairly pleasant. For a moment her attention was drawn towards the stoneteller's den, curiosity dancing in the she-cat's eyes as she witnessed the large form of Mountain passing through the entrance back into the clearing. With her father's faltering memory at times, she only hoped messages and tasks weren't getting miscontrued, though it was hardly unusual to see one cat or another approaching the tribe's Stoneteller. She couldn't help but overhear the deep voice of the tom relaying his orders to Rock, a guard change it seemed. It was certainly around that time.
Upon the heavy steps from the To-be's den, the pale colored she-cat's head rose from another bite of her meal, ears perked as her gaze difted towards the noise. It seemed the young cave-guard to-be, Lightning, had awoken, though Fern could only assume Pebble was on Guard duty or with a hunter somewhere else, though it was equally likely the tabby was still asleep given the previous training session with the young cat. At Pebble's age, he had a lot to prove, mentoring his first apprentice and all. Nevertheless, she resumed her meal with the crunch of bones as she tore into the meaty remains. |

"Oh, well. You stayed all night guarding the cave? Congrats! But now you need to sleep. Now and then I think you really devote your life to the tribe.." Sun meowed, while looking at her tired, almost sleeping sibilng.
Rock was almost sleeping at his own paws, listening to Sun he answered: "Oh well, I may sleep now. I can sound like a kit now but, I want to be the best cave-guard ever seen." Rock padded into the den, curled up and slept deeply like a real rock.

Mountain♂ Mountain's expression betrayed the confusion he didn't bother speaking as he was all but ignored by the two siblings. Perhaps he'd done something to ruffle their fur? Were they really so bothered by him interrupting them? Or maybe the younger cave-guard's exhaustion had simply made him absent-minded as the cat seemed to have every intention to do as Mountain had instructed, just without any acknowledgement that he'd heard him in the first place. Well, that was all the better for him, one less pointless conversation to sit through.
Nevertheless, with Rock out of the way, Mountain smoothly took up position upon a large boulder commonly used for those on guard. Settling himself on the stone in an upright position, he flicked his tail over his paws and essentially began his task. Even so, he hardly felt that spending his time guarding the camp was a good use of his time, but it was the task he was given and so the Cave-Guard had relented to Stoneteller's will. |

Sun saw her reflection on the stream at the cave. She purred in laughter, seeing her messy pelt. Then she started grooming herself.

Eagle(camp,open) Eagle slowly fluttered her eyes open, blinking sleep out of her eyes. She got up and arched her back in a long stretch. Then she began to head out of camp for an early hunt. The cold scent of rock and the sound of dripping water dripping filed her nose and ears as she padded through the cave towards the heather bed tunnels. Pebble(camp, with Lightning) bluLightning yawned and stretched. Slowly he got up out of his nest, 'I think I'll take Lightning out for some defense practice', he thought. He padded into the center of camp where he found Lightning grooming himself. 'Lightning' he called. 'Today we are going to practice some defense moves' he meowed, motioning with his tail for Lightning to follow. |

Sun, in camp (open)
Sun finished to groom herself, and reflected how much the tribe needs new members. Seeing the few members around the huge cave, the she-cat thought if there is any hope, a thing she would ask to Stoneteller later..

Peak♂ Resting within the Stoneteller's den lay the Stoneteller himself, a yawn escaping the sand-colored tom as he gazed idly at the exit of his den. He had already spoken to Mountain that morning about taking over the cave's Guard post, Peak himself witnessing the dutiful Rock practically ready to collapse out there this morning. Sometimes he worried he pushed some of guards a bit too hard, though a larger portion of that was simply forgetting to handle guard shifts properly. His memory had been deteriorating a bit recently and though he didn't show it, the old tom felt frustrated and helpless against the mercilessness of time. He would soon have to step down... But their ancestors were not yet done with the old tom it would seem.
Their messages were as cryptic as the stone themselves, but that morning had been spent deciphering the newest sign, a surprising one at that for it had been moons since something of importance had been sent to the old cat. Although it wasn't as if he minded the quiet, for the silence spoke of no conflict while signs often foretold of coming tragedy. This sign was hardly different, though not something he could handle with a flick of his tail. No, the trials of the Clans would become a trial for his own once more, and such a thing had not occured since long before his time, back with the founding of Mossclan and in small part that of Galeclan as well.
Hunger rumbled loudly from Peak's stomach, reminding him that in his work and discussion with Mountain, he had yet to pull himself from the den to eat. Amusement flashed in his eyes briefly as he thought about how often his daughter would chide him for forgetting that in particular. Chuckling to himself, the stoneteller pulled himself to his paws and slid out from the confines of his den with a yawn. He paused there long enough to stretch his old limbs, pale eyes gazing across the tribe clearing with a sense of satisfaction to see those that remained away from their duties relaxing, but soon made his way over to the caught-prey pile where he saw the slender from of his daughter resting on a rock above. "Morning, Fern." he purred a greeting, receiving a very similar response from the she-cat in return, before selecting a rather tasty looking fish from among the prey, and beginning to trudge his way back across the clearing with his meal. |

Sun looked at the Stoneteller, worried, she meowed: "Stoneteller, you know if there is any hope?." For moons, their tribe was empty and needed more kits. (psst Little meow meow) |

Peak♂ Peak came to a stop upon hearing a voice addressing him, laying his meal down upon the stone ground before turning to address Sun, though his expression belied a fraction of confusion. As much as he appreciated her direct nature, he wasn't quite sure what the young Prey-Hunter was even talking about in that moment. "I'm sorry, Sun, but what are you referring to?" he inquired, briefly wondering if perhaps he'd forgotten something yet again. It wasn't unheard of for him to discuss topics of importance with his clan mates with the intent to follow up later but then end up forgetting, and he wondered if that was the case here. |

"Like, you know, the tribe is weaker than ever. With few members and prey..." Sun showed worry on her eyes and voice. The young molly turned her face and saw the Stoneteller eating his meal.
