It was midday, and the sunlight that came through the missing pieces of the cabin roof bathed everything it touched in a golden glow. Desertstar glanced around in search for her friend, and eventually she found him at the edge of camp chatting beside his recent apprentice. “Cometchaser,” she called to him, walking over to the pair, “May I speak with you for a moment?” she asked, her golden eyes momentarily flicking to her daughter. She wanted to speak to Orion privately. After everything Desertrain had gone through, she didn’t want to make the fainthearted she-cat any more anxious than she already was. Turning away, she guided him back to her den, and once they were out of earshot, she sat down and said, “There’s been another incident. A couple of our warriors, Dayfall and Cactusbloom, found a body while on a hunting patrol.” Her eyes then met Cometchaser’s, her expression uneasy as she gave him a troubled look. “There was an ‘r’ carved into the skin.”

Desertstar walked alongside her daughter with her tail draped over the grey bengals’ back protectively. Standing tall, her golden eyes scanned the surrounding area as they walked, pupils flicking left-to-right as she kept an eye out for any potential danger. She felt horrible as it was that her daughter had to see something like this so soon after going through something traumatic, so if Cactusbloom was coming with them, she’d at least make sure that nothing else happened to her. Listening to the exchange between Cometchaser and the young warriors, she felt her daughter’s nose gently touch her cheek. She frowned, angry at herself, but then her gaze softened when she looked down at Cactusbloom. “I appreciate your concern for me, dear, but even if you feel like you’re fine, this isn’t something I ever wanted you to experience,” she replied in a gentle, motherly tone before rasping her tongue between her daughter’s ears.
Making their way toward the body, she slowly stepped forward and examined the scene with Cometchaser, her movements wary but confident. Her golden eyes narrowed thoughtfully as she studied the blood splatter and overall damage. Then, when Cometchaser beckoned her closer to speak more privately, she nodded and walked over to him, still keeping an eye on Dayfall and Cactusbloom even as she stepped away. “That doesn’t sound good,” she sighed, her troubled eyes briefly meeting with his before taking another quick glance around. She knew that Cometchaser would notice how nervous she was about having her daughter here by how often she looked around, but in a situation such as this, it was better to be safe than sorry.
