She smiled as the apprentice stepped forward, giving a nod of greeting. Her gaze passed over the crowd before she settled on a mentor for Fallenpaw.

"You have gone without training for long enough. From this moment on until you receive your warrior name, Fallenpaw [ @Blissie Bliss ], you will be trained by Ashcloud [ @amber'light ]. I entrust him to teach you well and pass on his eagerness."

Duskstar allowed the two to touch noses before she went on, though she stopped for a moment, looking as though she had just remembered something. With so many warriors going missing, it was hard to keep track of the apprentices with and without mentors- and Mintfrost's death had left another apprentice without a mentor as well. The Torbie frowned for a split heartbeat, then raised her voice once more.

"Two more apprentices have been left without mentors. After the tragic loss of Mintfrost," she cast a glance toward Bluegorse, hoping the name didn't cause any pain to the young warrior, "their apprentice is once again mentorless. And another apprentice was assigned a warrior who did not show for any training sessions, and soon turned up missing. Therefore, Darkpaw [ @Vessel ], Birdpaw [ @Slatepaw ], please step forward."
