After three generations of wandering, nettleclan can finally return to their homeland. Few remember what it was
truly like among their beautiful territory. Before the two-legs came and began to terrorize it. Many criticized their
leader mothstar's decision in leaving, but a recent scouting trip sent out by their new leader held promising news
that the territory was clear of two-legs and habitable again. The clan took no delay in returning to their territory,
its been three days since they have arrived and they've finally begun to settle in again. However, just four days
after they were declared safe, their deputy minkheart was found dead. Could this have been an act by something
in the territory? Or someone of their own clan? This has set the already nervous clan on edge, and is a mystery that
their leader is desperate to solve. The cats have been called home, but is this home the same one they remember?

i. leader ii. fifty two moons iii. roleplay form
loc: in the clearing, holding vigil tags: none

Dawn began to filter between the trees. His eyes were glued to her motionless form, he sat beside it in silence, holding vigil. He didn't want to live anymore, not without her. She had been his light, his motivation, his moon and his stars and now the absence of her warmth against his flank was all he could think about. Anger and sorrow and a whole mess of emotions roiled in his stomach. They lay there festering, he was constantly keeping them down. He wished he could take her place. At least then, he wouldn't have to feel so cold. What he would do to see the light in her eyes again.. he wasn't emotionally stable, and that was the biggest thing he was afraid of. He had to take care of a clan, he had to make sure they all remained safe. Deep down inside he blamed himself, for this decision, bringing the clan back here is what ended her life. Something in these woods ended her life and it was because of him, and his decision to come back. It wasn't fair. He had done nothing to deserve this torment, at least nothing that he could think of.

It wouldn't be long now before he would summon the clan, and then he would announce the hardest thing he would ever announce. The new deputy. He never thought in a million years he would announce something like this, or he would have to go through anything like this emotional strain on his mind. He had to keep his head up however, as his cats were nervous as well. He was a leader, and despite his emotional obligations he has a duty to attend to. Starclan would not have chosen this path for him if they didn't have a reason for it, and though it was hard to accept, it was the only thing keeping him going. Condorstar had given intensive thought to who the new deputy would be, it was a challenging choice but in the end he believed he had chosen the right cat for the job. They would make a fine leader in the end, and were well-respected by most, if not all cats, in the clan. He swallowed as light bathed her once vibrant pelt in golden light. He would bury her himself if he had to, as there were no elders to do so. Slowly, he lowered his head, touching his nose to her pelt in anguish. Crouching down, and closing his eyes to spend one last moment with her in the silence of the new dawn, before he would say goodbye to her forever.

i. warrior ii. thirty nine moons iii. roleplay form
loc: warriors den tags: none

Briarlight lay in the warriors den awake, her eyes on the entrance, and the pale outlines of both her leader and his mate in the clearing outside. She felt nothing but utter sorrow for both what her leader was going through, and what he was about to do. Minkheart had been not only a good clanmate, but also a good friend. She couldn't have brought herself to attend the vigil, not when it was not her place. Condorstar deserved every moment of privacy he could, to say goodbye to her while he still could. The sight brought back many memories of her and her mate. It brought back sorrow, thinking of how she had gone through a similar thing, and pity for what he was about to go through. She could only imagine the emotions that must be rioting through his mind. Briarlight made a mental note to visit cloudtuft, and request that he be given something to null the grief. She knew he would have trouble sleeping as she had, and most likely would be torn apart for the next few days. She would be there for him though, she had no doubts for that, he would need all of the support one could get. She hoped whomever he would choose as deputy would be capable of supporting him and taking charge for a bit while he grieved. He would need proper time, they always did, regardless of what they told themselves. He deserved time to grieve, and a new deputy to take over for a bit was what would allow him that choice. Though she knew he would never admit it, he was softer than he realized. He can take a hit, but this hit is a bit too hard to swallow right away. She continued to lay there and watch them, before turning her head to scan the warriors den, unwilling to get up at the moment.

I.xshe-cat II. queenx III.xtagged: open


indentsoft morning sunlight peered through the leaves of the nursery, washing the queen in gold. blue eyes slowly flickered open to meet the dawn light. dovecloud shifted in her nest with a grunt, staying still for a moment to listen to the chirping of birds outside and the melancholic buzz of boisterous insects. slowly, she got to her paws. it's been a few days since they returned to their old territory. by the sweet blessing of starclan, it hadn't been too much of a tolling journey on dovecloud. she had only found out she was going to have kits not too long ago so she wasn't heavily pregnant and thus, had been able to make the journey with little to no trouble. most of the clan didn't seem to have much trouble during the journey and she was glad for that. well, somewhat. their deputy minkheart had died not too long after they settled. it was tragic, the queen had to admit. her heart went out to their leader. condorstar was minkheart's mate and she couldn't imagine the pain he felt right now. to lose your mate is one thing but to lose your mate merely days after settling into a new territory you thought was fruitful and beneficial to your clan? it was appalling. she couldn't even imagine what she'd do if she lost her mate lostriver, especially now when she was expecting kits. the death of their deputy made her feel dreary, as it did with most of nettleclan.
indentdovecloud stepped out of the nursery after giving her pelt a quick grooming. as she expected, condorstar was in the middle of the clearing, holding vigil silently beside minkheart's cold form. she looked at her leader sympathetically. he was expected to announce their new deputy soon. they would need a new deputy, if they were to possibly organize themselves and begin to set borders and what-not in their new territory. but she wouldn't be surprised if condorstar held off on it. he needed time to recoup himself, gather his thoughts and feelings. he was always dutiful to the clan, though so she also wouldn't be surprised if he announced the new deputy by sunhigh. the clearing was relatively empty right so dovecloud opted to stay by the entrance of the nursery.

indent"ack, stupid moss," thistlepaw grumbled to himself quietly, sharp teeth attempting to pull out a pesky piece of vegetation stuck between his dark claws. the apprentice lay in his nest amongst his denmates, attempting to pull out a piece of moss that got stuck between his claws during the night. this was a common occurrence for thistlepaw. he often got vegetation stuck between his claws or fur stuck between his teeth whenever he was eating fresh-kill. luckily, he managed to dig out the piece of moss, a victorious 'hmph' sounding from the apprentice as he spat it off to the side. the tom got to his paws, shaking out his unruly pelt. he proceeded to carefully leave the den, treading lightly to avoid waking up the slumbering apprentices. when he poked his head out, he hissed as a ray of bright sunshine hit him in the face. his first instinct was to pull his head back into the den but instead he pushed himself out, stepping into the clearing. dark eyes squinted as he got used to the change of light before he caught sight of condorstar in the middle of the clearing. he was still holding vigil for minkheart, mourning over her. thistlepaw had given his respects last night.
indentof course, the apprentice felt sympathy for condorstar but truly, he had no idea what he was going through. obviously, thistlepaw had no mate. he didn't know what it felt like to lose one. he was more wondering who would be chosen as the next deputy. he felt guilt for thinking such but he hadn't known minkheart well enough to feel a strong sense of grief. surely, he felt remorse for her passing but nothing that reached the level of anguish. he felt for condorstar, though. hopefully their leader will be alright. thistlepaw had woken up relatively early; none of his denmates were awake and wheatfur was probably still asleep, too. he sat down beside the entrance to the apprentice's den.

indentgolden sunlight washed over to the red tom, illuminating his fur to the color of flames as he laid outside of the warrior's den. he's been awake for a while now. he tended to wake up early and with their recent move back to their territory, he's only been waking up sooner. however, he felt especially melancholic this morning. dark eyes watched condorstar mourn their deputy in the middle of the clearing. he's been there with her nearly the whole night, holding vigil. while others had eventually returned to their dens as the moon crept higher into the sky, it seemed like condorstar had stayed with minkheart. he wasn't surprised. and he did not blame them. foxheart had no mate but he could imagine the loss of your mate is difficult to bear and comprehend. they had just returned to their territory, too. they were supposed to be safe, living in relative harmony with the disappearance of the two-legs. now? he didn't know. they did not know what had killed minkheart. it was difficult to say. one can only hypothesize. badger? fox? some rogue? they had no idea. foxheart sighed to himself, long tail flicking away an irritable bug as he watched their leader. it was early in the morning but he was sure cats would begin to stir eventually. he wondered if patrols were going to be assigned this morning or if they would wait to see if condorstar announced the next deputy. foxheart was not much interested in being a deputy, although he certainly had some amicable traits. however, it wasn't something he desired. there were much more suitable candidates among the warriors, some who deserved the position greatly. if only it wasn't coming from such a miserable aspect.

She hadn't slept much last night, grey eyes wide open as she stared out at nothing in the warrior's den. Minkheart was dead. That was something she'd never expected to happen. The older she-cat had been one of her favorite cats in the clan, someone she saw as a mentor. Vixensong had always gone to the deputy looking for advice for many things. Training her apprentice, romance problems - not that she had much romance. - and sometimes she would use the she-cat as a sounding board. Part of her had wanted to join Condorstar in the vigil, but the more emotional part of her had told her that she should leave the two alone.
Glancing out of the den she saw the first few vestiges of daylight and sighed. Her body felt heavy, she didn't want to get up. But she had too. The feline would at least need to check on her apprentice and maybe take a patrol. Any strenuous training for Falconpaw could wait another day.

Yewpaw was awoken by the sound of Thistlepaw's grumbling. Something he was pretty used to and was prepared to relax once more and fall back asleep for a short time until his mentor came to collect him. But then he remembered. His eyes snapped open, from their previous half-closed state. Jumping to his paws, Yewpaw padded out of the apprentice's den, uncaring if he stepped on anyone or not as he was much to focused on the fact that Minkheart was dead. Keeping check of his emotions the nearly tailless tom glanced around camp, searching for Brairlight; His adoptive mother. He didn't spot her, but his gaze did find his father; Yarrowfoot. Flinching away from the older toms gaze, Yewpaw desperately searched for something or someone else to look at.

Finding a serious bone in the body of Ravenfeather was a nearly impossible feat. The she-cat was a menace, always joking, playing pranks, dad jokes and horrible puns. She was over-dramatic to some, and that may be true. But her goal was to lighten the load, and help others laugh in times of stress. Like now. Dear Starclan save of now. The black-furred she-cat had gotten a good amount of sleep the night before, but she'd had enough time to plan a few pranks so all was well in her world. Blinking her eyes, she gazed into the back on the cat sleeping in front of her. "Well isn't your back Purr-fect." She rasped, voice thick with sleep.
Shaking her head, Ravenfeather got up before padding out of the warrior's den and stretching a little bit. She glanced around, her copper-colored eyes narrowing in on Condorstar and Minkheart. The feline paused, did she want to risk it? The possibility of incurring the wrath of Condorstar, vs letting him lay there all sad. She let out a hum. I'm gonna risk it. So without a second thought, she padded over to the mourning leader and sat down next to the black and white tom. She pressed against him lightly, in a show of comfort then softly mewed. " What's happened in Claw-ful, no cat can deny that. Minkheart was a fur-midable warrior and a great deputy. Do not drownd in Mew-sery, we shall hold mew up when needed."

From the shadows created by the early morning rays, Yarrowfoot sat watching Condorstar mourn the death of his mate; the deputy. He almost snorted, the previous deputy. Softly shaking his head, Yarrowfoot scoffed then sneered. The whole arrangement was doomed from the start. Though I doubt that either thought about the fact one of both of them would have to die to see a new leader or a deputy appointed. Meaning one would outlive the other, and mourning the loss of a mate. A lip curled back, A flea-brained idea. It made him sick, he'd lost his appetite the moment that Minkhearts death had been announced. He'd seen the look on Condorstar's face. While he understood tom's pain, he somewhat felt that he'd brought it on himself. While this could have been an accident, Yarrowfoot was a pessimist.
He could probably name many reasons that Minkheart could have died of natural causes or at least reasons she wasn't killed by a clan-mate. But part of him felt that might not be as plausible as he wished. After all, he could think of only two reasons to kill Minkheart. Jealousy and revenge.

Tags: open | Mentions: Flickerdawn, Applepaw

The warrior felt odd, she had grown comfortable to being inside of the nursery in their old territory and what they had used while traveling. She only recently returned to her warrior duties a few dawns ago as her kit, Applepaw, had became an apprentice. She saw no reason to still be in the nursery as it was becoming crowded as well, it was good to be having more kits in the clan. She had no ideas on how to deal with her former mate now that they both were once again in the warriors den together. There were still feelings there with her but she felt uneasy and distant about the whole situation. The only time she would speak to him was if their kit was with them.

Mistflower had headed out of the den, frowning as she spotted the leader still sitting vigil as the dawn began occurring. She had seen the few warriors on her way out that had been awake but not wanting to come out to the clearing just yet. She couldn't blame them, she had dealt with loss in the past few moons - two kits. It had been the route of her and Flickerdawn's problems. She frowned as she watched the leader with their former deputy and his mate, it was sad. She had nearly been the same way with the kits until they had been buried.

Dewspots | ♂ | 28 moons | Warrior | Mate/Crush: None | Apprentice: Yewpaw

Tags: Open; Badgerfoot | Mentions:

As the sun had hit inside of the warriors den, Dewspots shifted as he shifted into Badgerfoot who's nest was aside his own. He had been sleeping more than he had been in moons the last several nights. However this past night he had stayed vigil for the deputy who now was in starclan, but had came inside the warriors den a few hours ago. He had been one of the last cats to leave the fallen deputy's side, he had been close to her as he had been her apprentices seasons ago and had remained close following the mentorship being over. The tom had always been proud that his mentor had gone on to become the deputy. He was sad to see her go.

It seemed like they all had been dealing with a lot of loss lately, either a parent or kits depending on the cats. They, himself and his sister, had lost their father not too long ago but that was when they were still traveling. He was sad his father had made it back to their home after being away. He wasn't truly optimistic anymore though he tried, but he was barely social. He mostly talked only to his sister, apprentice and his former mentor but now she had been gone too.

Falconpaw | ♂ | 9 moons | Apprentice | Crush: Thristlepaw | Mentor: Vixensong

Tags: Thirstlepaw | Mentions:

The apprentice was finding the apprentice den odd, he wasn't use to it as they had just came back to the territory where his clan originated from though he personally didn't know the territory. He wasn't sure what was going to happen now that they were back and immediately this happened,were they going to leave? He wasn't sure. It was rough he would imagine being leader, dealing with loss of a clanmate at that rank he would see as hard and would be constantly blaming himself but he wasn't sure if that's how all leaders felt.

Falconpaw was only sure of one thing and that was he was wanting to become a strong warrior to protect his clan by any pretators as much as he could. He already had been protective of his family - his mother, his two brothers and not to mention his cousin, he also was protective of those close to him like Mousepaw and Thristlepaw. He'd be lost if any of them did end up hurt, or worse if one of them too did end up joining starclan. He already had lost his father before they had been a few moons old.

The tom had shifted some as he heard one of the other apprentices that had gotten up from the nest near him. He groaned slightly and slowly had looked to see who it was that was up, seeing as it was Thristlepaw he figured he would use this to his advantage for some time alone. Falconpaw had stretched as he gotten up and slowly went over to the entrance of their den, brushing up against him once. "I think he's taking it quite hard.... I can't imagine how that feels," he murmured to the other apprentice as he saw Condorstar with Minkheart in the clearing still.
