Kestrelstar's gaze saddened. "Oh...I'm sorry," he murmured. "Our former leader, Moonstar, has passed away too. Both were an' are greatly missed." He bowed his head in silence for a few moments before beginning his speech. "Life in AshClan 'as been hard, but good. Prey is returnin' after a long, hard leaf-bare, an' although we've faced many deaths, we've also been blessed with many new lives. Please welcome our newest warriors: Snowstep, Longwhisker, an' Chanceheart. We also have sev'ral new apprentices, most of whom aren't present at the gatherin', but those that are: Woodpaw, Alleypaw, an' Lightningpaw."
My cats chanted the names of the warriors and apprentices.
"In other news, a rabid fisher was found in our territory an' has injured two of our warriors; Creekstorm was foun' to be guilty of murder an' has been exiled; and we were recently attacked by a group of rogues. These're the same rogues that killed Moonstar many moons ago, an' the worst thing about 'em is that they fight with foxes. Not against 'em, but with them. Keep an eye out for all o' those dangers, an' StarClan willing, you'll never hafta deal with 'em yourself. That is all." He stepped back. He didn't want to mention that he still hadn't chosen a new deputy since Bearheart's retirement.
