Each time she laid in her nest her eyes would flutter closed but they would only stay that way as long as her mind would stay quiet. Images from that night would flash through her mind and she’d startle herself awake. Even though there was no blood she could still smell the metallics lingering in the air. At some point in the night she’d simply tire of awaking and refuse to lay back down though her nest beckoned to her more and more. In the dead of night the medicine cat would leave her den to be greeted by the guard who sat to ensure the she didn’t slip off again to cause more trouble. Though she didn’t like the prying eyes, she’d rather it only be one set rather than the entire clan. Since that night she hadn’t left her den more often than needed, even bringing all of her meals to her den to enjoy on her own. The fireflowers that had lined the ceiling had been pulled down to leave only the darkness behind. As the sun began to rose Frecklefern had pushed her way through the small crevice that divided the two dens into the space where all of her patients typically rested. Now that many had regained their strength they had left the den to go back to sleep elsewhere. Once they had left Frecklefern had gotten what she so badly craved. To be alone. Alone with her thoughts, alone with the reminders of what had happened that night, alone with the ghosts that haunted her. Slowly the medicine pulled at the herbs that were tucked away in the crevice, attempting and sort them and trying to figure out what was left after all that had occurred. There were still small splashes of blood scattered throughout her pelt in the places she wasn’t able to reach and now she was nearly numb to the fact that they were even there. The motion of her pulling herbs was slow and repetitive, almost enough that if someone watched her long enough they would have sworn she picked the same herbs up simply to put them right back. Don’t live in the past Frecklefern. Find a way to keep going and not to kill another. Feeling: Guilty @xy 392 NOTES: Wow this hurts ⒶⓀⒾ of Adoxography

Oh this was a fine day! Yes indeed! Somber sorrows tottered elsewhere from both Plumpetal's mind and her mates, now with a month fleeting by the two shared their new found information discreetly. First up was Milkdapple's sister, their very own Medicine Cat. One would be stupendously anxious to speak with such a being close to Helios, but neigh Frecklefern would be the most understanding right? For after all the femme was a extension between both worlds, and if she any questions or concerns their glorious God would clear them up without a doubt.
Pap pap pap
Plumpetal's regular entourage clung haphazardly to fine fibers of her chocolate pelt, monarchs were always flitting about mistaking her scent for wild flower. One day they appeared just as her pregnancy had, sudden but fully welcomed. A few monarchs found themselves too lethargic to keep up with the femme's pace so they leisurely trailed after in pairs. "Ah you'll all be leaving soon right? Off to wherever it is you all roam in LeafBare, I will always be here waiting your return." She murred to the insects as she passed the nursery, "See that den? It's our Nursery, I thank Helios I will lay inside there in the upcoming months," tilting her small cranium backwards she squinted at the fiery orb above, "Thank you Helios so are looking beautiful this morning."
Pap pap pap
Plumpetal's toes tapped along the clearing's bare terrain, it was a tad bit chillier than it was the day before but the femme paid no mind to it. The recently mated pair were due for a winter litter after all, *I wonder if they will like snow, how pretty my lovelies will be playing in the gifts of Helios* Plumpetal's sugary words laced the humble headspace she relaxed into as she then neared the Medicine Cat's quarters. "Oh dearest sister-in-claw~ I come bearing wonderful news!" but no one seemed home, "Frecklefern? Where on earth are all you lovely decorations?" Plumpetal was scanning the domain before landing her bubbling eyes over to her family member, the molly seemed to be muddied in the head. "Frecklefern my dear, you do not seem well...like yourself how are you?"
