"Okay, territory time!"

Sagehawk set out into the territory, eyes bright with renewed optimism. He had to be the best that he could be for Stonepaw! "So, you haven't been out into the territory before, right?" he asked. Just for confirmation. Glancing over at his apprentice, he added, "What do you smell?"

They were headed away from the cliffs—what if one of them fell off?—and instead padding towards the river. Parting his jaws, Sagehawk breathed in the scents. The prey had to have been returning, because the smell of voles and mice were stronger than usual. No predator stench-- thankfully. If he really focused, he could taste the other Clans in the air, though faint.
