Eclipsekit scented the air, shifting her paws awkwardly under her small paws. The smell of wood and tainted water touched her nose, and she briefly took in a large breathe of the crisp morning air. Her pelt was tingling with excitement as she anticipated the coming moment, when she would finally work up enough guts to enter the leaders den to confront him and ask her question. But first, she had to plan what to say, and it was bugging and nudging her until she couldn't stand it and just threw a jumble of mixed feelings and words together.
Rustling the leaves under foot slightly, she rose to her feet and stretched her tightened limbs, starch and tired. She tossed her head to the side restlessly, glancing across the camp before pushing through the thick curtain of lichen, ragged with age, and into the den.
She coughed faintly at the smell of musk and clumps of moss lined the dark dirt roof. The sandy floor felt cool under her paw pads, and she shivered as a breeze ruffled her fur. She quietly tucked her tail tightly beside her cold, ridgid fur. Her blue eyes stared into the gloom, and with a scuffling of her paws against the loose footing, she called out," Hello? Granite? I have a question!"
