nani parted her jaws with a yawn, getting to her paws. the kit fox had been called upon by the stars to create and build a
powerful skulk, so she had done so. the skulk of the gentle earth was created that same cold night she was found by her
fox ancestors. padding out of her den, nani headed to the camp exit, stopping for a small drink at the stream. she was
headed to the earthstone, a spiritual place she had found on her journey to the camp. bounding over the grass, the
vixen took in a deep breath, smiling as the scent of flowers passed over her. as a cave drew by, nani began to
pick up her pace, excited. arriving at the earthstone, nani looked up at the single hole in the ceiling, the afternoon
sun just directly above it. squinting from the bright light, the leader padded up to the glowing earthstone and
curled into a ball, her nose touching it.

' ' the skulk of lilypad's judgement resides in a large forest, nearby a large pond. this pond has — like the skulk's name suggests — lots of lilypads, where water lilies bloom every new-leaf. these water lilies are considered sacred to the skulk, and must never be touched by any fox, including the leader — if they did, it would have serious consequences. if a fox was to accidentally touch one of these flowers, they are (normally) forgiven, but must hunt for the rest of the day to prove they are still loyal to their skulk.

' ' the leader is meant to wear a lilypad on their forehead, to seek guidance (the foxes of lilypad's judgement believe lilypads and water lilies have sent from the stars) from the plant whenever they are in need. when a fox becomes leader and they pick their lilypad, they must not choose a lilypad with a water lily on.
' ' leaders are also allowed to take off their lilypad, but they have to keep it on for any ceremonies. if they lose their lilypad, they must choose another one at moonhigh.

the skies acknowledge the skulk of lilypad's judgement and have sent a leader

next visit to the star-tree: now / wenesday july twelfth

Song never dreamed that she'd be chosen. That she would be put in charge of creating and sustaining an entire group of foxes. Yet, here she was, in the thin wood where she felt in her heart her skulk would live. No, live wasn't right. They would thrive! Song sat, her fluffy tail laid delicately over her small paws. Taking a deep breath she lifted her head, eyes closed, and listened to the sounds around her. A river ran to the south, birds sang from every tree and the thin wood rustled as the breeze lifted and dropped the leaves. This small clearing in the middle of the clearing would suit her and her skulk just fine.

Song stood and stretched her legs, reluctant to leave her new home, yet desperate to find another fox to join her. The vixen set off a steady pace in search of something she knew only her heart would recognize. It was a daunting task but one she knew must be done.

Eventually she found in. When she did, she stopped dead in her tracks, jaw parted ever so slightly in awe. There stood a tree unlike any other tree she'd seen in the whole wood. There, near the eastern border, was her star-tree. A gnarled, ugly thing it was, bark peeling and roots that left the ground only to dive back under. The branches all swayed under their own weight, some even touched the earth and Song knew that this tree was how she'd speak with her ancestors. At the roots of the ancient tree was a bowl, protected perfectly by roots and branches alike, and Song curled up within the little cup, eager to sleep. Song fell asleep quickly and awaited the voices of her ancestors.

Next Visit to Boneyard: now / wednesday july 5th

It wasn’t a rather unusual occurrence for the loner to stop by the Boneyard. He’d always gone exploring in it ever since he’d found this strip of land – he’d just never really had a purpose for going there. Sometimes it was because there was an abundance of prey there. Usually it was out of sheer boredom. But last night… Last night his purpose had come to him in the form of a dream.

It’d started out with the stars. The stars, those beautiful light-creatures that everyone in any skulk would die to meet – he’d met them in his dream. They spoke to him. Told him to create his own skulk, to make a home for foxes who’d otherwise not have one, to help them flourish, to thrive. In all honesty, Zagadka was completely and utterly convinced he’d eaten some bad berries the night before. Certainly the stars wouldn’t choose him to take on such an important task… Right?

However, when one of the stars touched noses with him, granting him his nine lives… He suddenly knew this was the real deal.

He’d awoken with a start at the crack of dawn, out of breath and shaken up from that strange, strange dream. But he didn’t stop to ponder it, didn’t pause to mull over its credibility. Instead, he’d ran. Ran straight to the Boneyard and closed his eyes, pressing his nose against one of the particularly larger stone tombs as he awaited to hear the sweet, sweet voices of the stars yet again.

The Skulk of Dappled Petals
Number of Foxes: 001

Post:
A young sun glow vixen picked her way through the forest, grumbling to herself about how she was better off without them, she didn't need them anyway and they just didn't want to accept the truth. She paused at the edge of the forest, staring out into the lake nearby. "This preyland will make good homeland," she murmured, smiling and showing her canines. "They say I'm disobediant, ha! There is none to disobey here. It is all for me. Mine!" The vixen snapped at a butterfly that had strayed too close to her muzzle. It was powdery and tasteless, and the vixen wanted to spit it out as soon as it touched her tongue. "Maybe some forage-hunting," she swiped her tongu across her lips to try and rid herself of the butterfly residue.

She took off into the woods, bounding over logs and sticks, reveling in her newfound freedom. The vixen spent so long. pressed beneath the rules of her father's skulk, but now she was able to do whatever she wanted. She could do everything for herself-- anything she wanted to do! She didn't have to ask for permission or bring another fox along. The vixen paused to chuckle to herself. "Those fangthroats don't know what they're missing." Then she took off again, inhaling the clear air and dashing through the territory she would claim for herself.

So wrapped up in her selfish thoughts, the vixen did not see the ditch ahead of her until it was too late. She fell headfirst, hearing a crack as her hind legs smashed into the walls of the hole. Her skull collided with the hard dirt, and everything went dark.

The vixen didn't know how long she lay there, the small creek running past her muzzle and wetting her whiskers. She could hear it, and feel the cold water against her nose. It was annoying. Opening her eyes, the vixen was shocked to see that she was no longer in her beautiful forest. Bolting upright, she stared around, not recognizing a thing. A transparent, glittering, fox-like form, descended in front of her, dipping its head in greeting. "Vainiklapis," it said, its voice coming from everywhere and nowhere.

The vixen, Vainiklapis, trembled in fear. She didn't know where she was. She wanted her forest back, her lake, her marsh. She did not like this strange land with starry foxes and disembodied voices. "Who are you and where am I? Take me back to my homeland at once!" Vainiklapis demanded, stamping her paw.

The voice laughed. The starty fox didn't move its mouth when it spoke. "I am afraid you can't go back, foolish vixen. This is the place of stars. You have passed on from the living realm and are joining us here."

Vainiklapis shook her head, stepping back. "No, I can't be dead. I just found my perfect forest, where I plan to live forever. Send me back right now!" Her voice was almost a growl.

The starty fox's face contorted, as if it was narrowing its eyes. "Your mother named you aptly. They weren't exaggerating you're blind vanity."

Vainiklapis crouched, her gaze turning cold. "I am not vain!"

The starry fox cackled, obviously not believing the puny mortal in front of him. Hethought for a moment. "Prove it." Vainiklapis looked puzzled, but the starry fox continued. "There is a skulk that is in dire need o-"

"I'm not joining another skulk. I'll make my own. You'll see, you'll see! It'll be the strongest, most loyal and more beautiful skulk in all the land."

Amusement filled the starry fox's voice. "Perhaps. Good luck, then, Vainiklapis."

The vixen opened her eyes, seeing the dirt walls in front of her. She jumped up, shocked to see that her hind legs-- which she was sure she had broken in the fall-- were whole once again. She circled once, making sure that she was fully healed of any injuries from the fall. Vainiklapis' eyes widened in amazement. She was flawless once again! Not even the scar on her wrist from when her older brothers had played too roughly remained. Pride surged in her chest. Her endeavor was supported by the stars-- surely it could not fail. The vixen raced off again (although this time watching for ditches), excitement filling her bones as she looked for foxes to join her skulk

Oisin poked his nose out of the den, sniffing around. He had discovered this odd clearing the previous night and immediately fell asleep; the young tod had been traveling for days. He sniffed the air once more, feeling quite timid, before pushing his whole body out and glancing about curiously. This was where he would start his skulk. This was the place he had been searching for. Briskly leaping up onto the lowest part of the cliff-face that surrounded the den-site, Oisin looked around in awe. The forest seemed to stretch on for an eternity and it seemed their camp was atop of hill so they had an advantage of sight. It was then Oisin's stomach let out a desperate rumble and the waking thought reminded Oisin that he hadn't eaten in days. He decided he would hunt while he explored.

Leaping off the ridge, the silver tod frolicked through the trees. Oisin stretched out his lanky body, his senses alert for any sign of prey. He was walking for what seemed like an eternity before he found the glassy pool of water. Immediately intrigued by the randomness of it, he touched his nose down to drink from it and was surprised when he was filled with a sudden sleepiness. A few more minutes of sleep would do no harm, right? The tod crawled into a ball before closing his eyes.

When he opened them again, Oisin was welcomed by darkness illuminated by starlight. Where was he? He felt presence all around, but saw nothing. Whispers caught his attention, preaching of his skulk, his future. Curiosity got the better of Oisin and he puffed his chest out, if there were others here, he might as well ask for their help. "If there's anyone there, please acknowledge my presence and gift me with a fellow fox; preferably with knowledge of herbs."

Peach tried to steady herself as she walked across the slippery lilypads. The night before, the stars had sent her a dream telling her to go to the Starfall. At first, Peach has no idea where this 'Starfall' was, until she went out to look at the pond. Across the pond was a tall, rocky waterfall that was so shimmery it looked like the stars were rushing through it — it was obvious what they meant now.

Luckily for her, she was incredibly light, so she didn't weigh down the lilypads at all much. When she got there, she realised there was no way of passing through to the other side of the waterfall except going through it, so she held her breath and braced herself for the ice that was the waterfall that was going to crash down onto her small body. Peach took a few steps back, careful not to slip into the pond, and ran through to the other side of the Starfall.

Suprisingly, Peach didn't feel much at all — but as she looked at her grey and white pelt, she realised she was soaked through. Peach shook her pelt, getting rid of the droplets of water that hung onto her fur. As she looked forward again, a brilliant sight met her eyes that she didn't notice before.

An almost perfectly circular pool lay in the centre of the cave. Looking closer, Peach saw that a small lilypad with one small, white and pink flower sprouted from it. She shook her head — it wasn't New-Leaf! How could a water lily be in here, with barely any sunlight? Curious, Peach padded up to it. She dipped her paw in the water, and swished it around a bit. This water felt... weird. She felt... ..sleepy. Peach soon dozed off.

Suddenly a bright light appeared before her— she had to squint to make out the shape that was producing such light. Peach's jaw slightly dropped in awe. A fox was the creature that was standing before her! She soon realised that this must be the star that gazes over her skulk. She breathed out, trying to remain calm. The fox before her just smiled warmly. Peach then yipped,
"Please, may I ask for a second? Of course I have the stars to guide me, but I want something more direct to help me with my troubles. Thank you so much for your time."

Kanuka squealed in surprise as a gull emerged from the heather in which she had been playing, taking off into the sky with an urgent flapping of its great wings. The vixen leapt away in shock, bushy tail bristling and eyes wide as her gaze swivelled around her, nervous of any immediate danger. When she was sure that there was no threat, Kanuka allowed herself to relax, smoothing down her pale coat with several harsh licks. The encounter had sparked an idea in her mind: the skulk would need a mending vulpe. Kanuka couldn't have her foxes dying from every little scrape and injury they managed to collect, that wouldn't do. So, the young leader set off. Kanuka weaved her way through the clay formations, ducking into a narrow crevice concealed by briar and brambles. She had stumbled upon this cave by happenstance when exploring the territory, but its spiritual significance was instantly obvious. Sunlight illuminated the cave from hundreds of holes in the ceiling; marks decorated the walls, telling stories of foxes long before Kanuka's time; somewhere, she could hear the trickle of water, but she had yet to be able to find its source. Despite the fact that the sun was at its highest point in the sky, entering the cave Kanuka could feel the fatigue set into her immediately. Her paws were heavy to lift, her gaze blurry. With a yawn, the vixen curled herself into a tight ball in the centre of the cave, curling her tail over her muzzle as she prepared herself to speak to the stars.

She paused at the edge of the forest, staring out into the lake nearby. "This preyland will make good homeland," she murmured, smiling and showing her canines. "They say I'm disobediant, ha! There is none to disobey here. It is all for me. Mine!" The vixen snapped at a butterfly that had strayed too close to her muzzle. It was powdery and tasteless, and the vixen wanted to spit it out as soon as it touched her tongue. "Maybe some forage-hunting," she swiped her tongu across her lips to try and rid herself of the butterfly residue.

She took off into the woods, bounding over logs and sticks, reveling in her newfound freedom. The vixen spent so long. pressed beneath the rules of her father's skulk, but now she was able to do whatever she wanted. She could do everything for herself-- anything she wanted to do! She didn't have to ask for permission or bring another fox along. The vixen paused to chuckle to herself. "Those fangthroats don't know what they're missing." Then she took off again, inhaling the clear air and dashing through the territory she would claim for herself.

So wrapped up in her selfish thoughts, the vixen did not see the ditch ahead of her until it was too late. She fell headfirst, hearing a crack as her hind legs smashed into the walls of the hole. Her skull collided with the hard dirt, and everything went dark.

The vixen didn't know how long she lay there, the small creek running past her muzzle and wetting her whiskers. She could hear it, and feel the cold water against her nose. It was annoying. Opening her eyes, the vixen was shocked to see that she was no longer in her beautiful forest. Bolting upright, she stared around, not recognizing a thing. A transparent, glittering, fox-like form, descended in front of her, dipping its head in greeting. "Vainiklapis," it said, its voice coming from everywhere and nowhere.

The vixen, Vainiklapis, trembled in fear. She didn't know where she was. She wanted her forest back, her lake, her marsh. She did not like this strange land with starry foxes and disembodied voices. "Who are you and where am I? Take me back to my homeland at once!" Vainiklapis demanded, stamping her paw.

The voice laughed. The starty fox didn't move its mouth when it spoke. "I am afraid you can't go back, foolish vixen. This is the place of stars. You have passed on from the living realm and are joining us here."

Vainiklapis shook her head, stepping back. "No, I can't be dead. I just found my perfect forest, where I plan to live forever. Send me back right now!" Her voice was almost a growl.

The starty fox's face contorted, as if it was narrowing its eyes. "Your mother named you aptly. They weren't exaggerating you're blind vanity."

Vainiklapis crouched, her gaze turning cold. "I am not vain!"

The starry fox cackled, obviously not believing the puny mortal in front of him. Hethought for a moment. "Prove it." Vainiklapis looked puzzled, but the starry fox continued. "There is a skulk that is in dire need o-"

"I'm not joining another skulk. I'll make my own. You'll see, you'll see! It'll be the strongest, most loyal and more beautiful skulk in all the land."

Amusement filled the starry fox's voice. "Perhaps. Good luck, then, Vainiklapis."

The vixen opened her eyes, seeing the dirt walls in front of her. She jumped up, shocked to see that her hind legs-- which she was sure she had broken in the fall-- were whole once again. She circled once, making sure that she was fully healed of any injuries from the fall. Vainiklapis' eyes widened in amazement. She was flawless once again! Not even the scar on her wrist from when her older brothers had played too roughly remained. Pride surged in her chest. Her endeavor was supported by the stars-- surely it could not fail. The vixen raced off again (although this time watching for ditches), excitement filling her bones as she looked for foxes to join her skulk
