Cindersky
There was much that the warriors of ThunderClan could learn from the youth. Wisdom that seemed way beyond her moons occupied the depths of Softpaw's brown eyes. Something Cindersky wished she had when she was younger, back during her apprentice days. It saddened her to think of a Clan where peace was left in the paws of those barely old enough to fight, but it mingled with hope. Hope that the generation that would come after her, and the generation after that, would be the ones to finally bring peace to the forest.

"That is absolutely right, Softpaw. I am glad that ThunderClan has apprentices like you to learn from." Pride radiated from soft blue eyes as the older warrior briefly touched her nose to the apprentices ear. She knew what it felt like to feel as though the crumbling of the Clan was your fault, and that was a burden she did not want Softpaw to feel. She was young, and there was much left in life to enjoy before she would have to worry about any of that.

Returning her attention to the meeting, Cindersky changed the subject. "I wonder what this meeting will entail. Are you getting your warrior name already?" the gray furred molly teased, light sparkling in her gaze as she smiled towards Softpaw. She hoped she was doing a good job in lifting her spirits, as she tried to do the best she could with her Clanmates.
