Looking up at the sky, Snowybreeze remained silent, sending a quiet prayer up to the unseen stars. Maplepaw had died too young, and under the worst of circumstances. To have been caught in ShadowClan territory when fleeing from the fire. He wished to hate ShadowClan for their taking away such a young life, but... if they had not known of the fire, he supposed it could not be helped. It was their way. The laws they had placed on their territory had been clear.
Dawnstar was not Twilightstar. The two leaders had very different views on how to guide their clans. Dawnstar had obviously done something right, considering how stable her leadership had been compared to RiverClan's and ThunderClan's... so he couldn't judge. He couldn't understand it, but perhaps there was a reason why ShadowClan was the way they were. Why they seemed to be cold hearted and void of empathy.
Surely they weren't really all that bad. It must be a ruse, a face they put up for the other clans. He just couldn't see how cats so uncaring could remain together, so he instead chose to believe in the better alternative. There was little else the gentle giant could do now. Only let sorrow rest in his heart, and hope that Maplepaw was now at peace hunting with loved ones amongst the stars.
