"That's not... supposed to happen, is it?"
The beginning of Cinderpaw's day greeted her with something especially peculiar -- the ground in an unoccupied corner of the medicine den (alarmingly close to the herb stores) was... starting to sag? She stood confusedly, peering down at the cracked dirt and resisting her temptation to poke at the oddity with a paw.
Now that she thought about it, the same thing had been happening outside of the nursery, which neighbored their den... and now that den had been blockaded. Dammit. Maybe they should scram. She turned and shot an unsure look towards her mentor.
"Could you... uh, help me grab the herbs? Whatever's happening to the nursery is spreading. I don't think we should stick around."
Carefully side-stepping the elephant in the room, Cinderpaw carefully began stuffing as many medicinals as she could into leaf bundles. No way could they afford to lose all this.
