As Lotuspaw approached, Jaystride tipped his head at them curiously. He had hoped Sootwind would be more responsible. It shouldn't be on apprentices to report patrols - and after the Snailpaw and Hemlockfrost fiasco this was just disappointing (and not because of Lotuspaw's contributions to the patrol's failure.) "Relax, kid." Lotuspaw seemed to know they messed up, and Jaystride wasn't going to beat a dead horse. "How'd your lesson go? Where's Sootwind?"

They'd discuss the punishments in a bit as needed. But, Lotuspaw getting the training they needed was more important - it meant they'd handle future patrols better.
