High Rank Announcement [#hrannouncement]

DUSKLION
she/her | riverclan deputy | 29 moons

Arriving to the twoleg den took pretty much the last bit of energy that Dusklion had. Her wounds had stopped bleeding thankfully but still radiated dull, deep pain within her. She gently slid Cobs down on the springy bed of moss near the den, out of the hustle and bustle. Her chest was still rising and falling as the deputy took more moss and replaced the earlier patch Berrypaw had put there. "You're okay, Cobs, I swear it. No one's gonna hurt you." She stayed next to her for a brief moment before turning around and surveying the scene.

Outsider scent was the first to come to her nose, and despite her exhaustion Dusk sent her claws out and hackles up. Crowglow was holding an unfamiliar kit, which had the deputies eyes narrowing. She'd leave it alone for now - a kit couldn't do them much harm. There were others though that were adults. The first cat had brought enough prey to feed quite a few cats. Though she was still wary, Dusklion flicked an ear in acknowledgement. "...Thanks. if you've got moss, we could use some of that." Whoever this stranger was, it was clear they weren't hostile. She would just... have to trust that for now.

A voice next to her had Dusklion looking down at another unfamiliar face. It made her uneasy, but this cat was young by the looks of it. Swallowing hard, the deputy looked around again. "...Not sure. Sorry we're in your territory, we'll be movin' on soon hopefully." She wanted to get as far away from this wretched battle as possible. "Actually, if you can gather up some moss, our medicine cats will need as much as they can get when they arrive. 'N if you know any herbs, those would be helpful too." She doubted this young outsider did, but it never hurt to ask.

Stepping forward she glanced at the gathered cats. "Listen up! We're waitin' here for the rest of the Clan. There's... there's been prey brought here, thanks to this outsider..." Dusklion hadn't caught a name as she glanced towards Bean. "If you need help, shout for me. Otherwise stay here. Warriors, keep an eye on the kits. I'll have your ears if any of them scamper off."

Upon looking for outsiders though she caught sight of a familiar pelt - one that no longer had a place in RiverClan after what she had done. "Minksplash!" storming over to the cat that matched the description Twilightstar had given, Dusk gave a lash of her tail - wincing as she remembered it was still broken. "Mind explainin' to me what the hell happened at the border with you 'n Cedarfrost 'n a WindClan apprentice??" she snapped, giving a lash of her tail
