Drizzlecloud
Thunderclan
She/her

If Drizzlecloud knew her apprentice–could she even call her that now? Her previous apprentice, she supposed–she could tell that she was pleased by the name. What a relief that was. The blue-grey tabby couldn’t help but sigh, her green gaze lingering on Springlight for a few moments longer. It was nice to relish in the moment, feel the pride, recall the memories and how far this molly had come since the moment that they were assigned their new roles within the clan.

 

There was this odd thought at the back of her mind–odd, yet soothing. Drizzlecloud had no family now. Well, she supposed that she never had much of one in the first place. A mother, whom she adored, from the beginning up until the very end. Even now, with her mother gone, disappeared as if she had never existed in the first place, instead of frustration at her sudden disappearance, she was only sad with the loss, but thankful for the time that they had together nonetheless. Now… What did she have? Her mate. She had her love, Sparrowpelt, which was more than enough to keep her content with this life. However, with Springlight being given her full name, she would be content with leaving this life, too. She would feel that Thunderclan would be safe beneath her watchful eye and her healing. If anything were to happen to her, she would not fret–and perhaps she would not fight it, either. Perhaps she would go willingly, knowing that Springlight was here… That is not to say that she wished to die. No, she just did not harbor a fear for it any longer.

Drizzlecloud blinked the thought away, offering Springlight one last smile before she turned to gaze at the stone before them.

“I suppose this would be our next step, hm?” Drizzlecloud murmured softly as she shuffled closer to the stone, laying down on her side so that she wouldn’t simply topple over. Her gaze drifted to Springlight again, nodding to the space beside her invitingly. She wouldn’t want to touch the stone before she did–she wanted Springlight to touch the stone before her, in all honesty. She felt that in this scenario especially, she deserved to go first.
