"Dad, do you feel that?" Alaz's voice cracked as he stood, tail igniting, though its burn was weak.
"What do you mean?" Nereus could tell his son felt the same pull, but he didn't want to put it into words. He felt fear ripple up his spine as if it were fingers. He shivered and looked around, looking for other cats.
"Theres... something telling me to follow it." Alaz's eyes squinted and he resisted stepping forward, his tail grew stronger as his movements became less painful. "Da-- should we follow?"
Nereus shook his head. "Don't son, it's probably a trick from the enemy, they want us to split up." He stood, coming up to Alaz's side. "Control yourself, you're weak. You should focus on something else."
Alaz grit his teeth and Nereus' heart pounded. He didn't want his son to struggle.
"I dunno if I can da." He took another begrudging step. "Maybe we should follow it?" He looked back, flicking his tail.
Nereus knew that once his son got an idea, he wouldn't let go. The blue tom ducked his head, letting out a heavy sigh. "I won't let you go alone..." He came up beside Alaz, taking a deep breath. Maybe there would be water there? Or hot coals, something to give them the advantage.
