Perhaps if you speak with Daydream they can offer help. Medicine cats are closely linked to Starclan.” Halfgaze was unsure how to solve mystical problems. A prey shortage she could handle, a natural disaster: not ideal but could be solved. For this, the deputy had no answer.

Lightpaw nodded, and she remembered how she had defended herself from Scorndusk, but she looked down. "Anyways, my parents died when I was a moon old." She meowed. "I have no parents now, and have been living without them for a long time."
