Berryshine hummed in thought, looking a bit grim, assessing Frostkit's answer. The kit really wasn't responding to any visual stimuli...
She gave Oakblaze a solemn look. "L-Like I said earlier, it's hard to say since kits take awhile to develop proper eyesight, but... i-it doesn't seem like Frostkit can see much of anything. N-Not even just blurry shapes, if I had to guess."
There was a pause. The medicine cat furrowed her whisker brow, contemplating. Then she sighed, keeping her voice low and gentle. "I-I'll come check in on Frostkit and monitor her from time to time, t-to see if this improves at all. If we're lucky, she'll keep developing and improve as most kits do. B-But if not... we may need to consider trying alternate forms of learning and training," she mewed slowly. There was an indirect implication in her words: that Frostkit may be permanently blind. She didn't want to say that so early, only at two moons — but it was a possibility.
Oakblaze nodded.
How am I going to tell Splashloud this? He wondered.
Well, I guess I'll take her back to the nursery now. He mewed.
Thank you so much, Berryshine. He picked up Frostkit, and padded out of the den.
