Darkania slunk through the undergrowth, marking out her new territory hurriedly as she thought about all she needed to do. She kept her eyes open for any signs of movement as the early morning light sifted through the fog that shrouded her home. She knew that she would need to get back relatively soon if she wanted to sleep before traveling to the Moonpool to get her leader name.
After several good marks, she hunted for herself and then returned to camp to sleep the after noon away before her evening travel. Soon, she woke up to the late afternoon light filtering through what little grimy glass remained and was not overgrown. She got up and stretched before setting out for the Moonpool.
She soon arrived, her paws aching from the trek, and laid down beside it. She was not sure what she would encounter on the other side, but she hoped that her Great-Aunt, Crescentmoon of Jinxclan, would be there. She knew that what happened to Jinxclan was horrific, and she just hoped that her beloved aunt could find her way to her warrior ancestors after being taken prisoner by Two-Legs.

Clan Tradition:
When an apprentice is ready to become a warrior, they shall go on a week long quest into the Two-Leg territory on the western boarder, where they will look for a monkey by the name of Fitzgerald, and he will make their new clan collar for them. If they succeed then they shall be welcomed back to the clan as a full warrior, if they do not then they will have to train for an additional moon before they are able to try again. If they fail a second time, they are banished from the clan for weakness and a disrespect for clan tradition and law.
