  3. Update time everyone! I'm fairly excited about this update because I feel I can finally start moving along a plot idea I've had for literal months- - CanaryStar slowly blinked open her eyes, quickly noticing that this wasn’t her nest nor even WildClan’s camp. Shimmering stars surrounded her and something akin to clouds made up the ground as she slowly stood to her paws. ‘StarClan…but why am I here?’ She thought to herself as she turned her head this way and that before movement caught her eye. A nicheling covered in stars slowly started to approach her. The first thing CanaryStar noticed was the bright red fur that was broken up by black stripes and followed by a bushy tail. CanaryStar squinted her eyes as she attempted to piece together who this nicheling was before it hit her, the passed down stories of the generations before her played in her head. “SquirrelStar?” She asked as she paid more attention to the starry nicheling then she already was, shocked that she could be having a dream with the original leader of WildClan. The nicheling confirmed with a nod but before CanaryStar could launch question after question the leader spoke. “Soon a whisper will sweep across the wilds to bring about a new era” SquirrelStar spoke but the words only confused CanaryStar though she did realize that this was more than a mere dream. “What do you mean by that? Is this talking of a certain nicheling?” She asked but the dream started blurring and blending together causing her to trip over her paws, only able to watch as SquirrelStar faded along with the dream. = CanaryStar woke from her dream with a jolt as she quickly sat up. She noticed the sky was still quite dark with the moon watching over the island. ‘A whisper?’ She recalled what SquirrelStar had said in her vision and only felt more confused as there wasn’t even a nicheling with a name like that to link it to. She wondered if Mossbeetle had the same vision then decided that she would talk to her brother about it when everyone was awake and active. For the moment she looked at the stars with the hope that this wasn’t a bad sign for the clan’s future. Mossbeetle’s ears pricked at the sound of someone stepping into the medicine den. He internally groaned at the thought of Blossompaw coming into the medicine for yet another thorn because she wasn’t paying attention to her surroundings due to her complete focus on Crowpaw. He turned around with a snarky remark only for it to die on the tip of his tongue as he saw a nicheling he was not expecting. “Can I talk to you about something?” Hearing his sister’s words he simply nodded and watched as she walked further into the medicine den before sitting down a few tail-lengths away from him. “Did you have any odd dreams lately?” CanaryStar asked with an expression that caused Mossbeetle some concern as he shook his head. “No, did you?” He turned the question back to her which made her look away as she wondered if it was just a silly dream. “I saw SquirrelStar and she told me that ‘a whisper will sweep across the wilds to bring a new era’” CanaryStar admitted making Mossbeetle’s face to twist in confusion at the words. “Wish they weren’t so cryptic” He mumbled making CanaryStar snicker, not really able to disagree with that sentiment at least. “But I have a feeling that ‘the wilds’ could be referencing the clan considering our name, but whisper…” He pointed out before starting to sort herbs as a way to clear his mind as he repeated the word a few times under his breath. “I can’t think of what that could mean, maybe in time I’ll think of something” Mossbeetle said making CanaryStar deflate at the realization that her brother didn’t have any more clue than she did. “Well thanks anyways” CanaryStar said as she rose to her paws, getting a nod in response from the medicine nicheling, before exiting the den to go check on her clanmates instead. “Ugh this is so booooring!” Blossompaw exclaimed for the fifth time since starting this ‘lesson’ of sorts. Mossbeetle was heavily regretting letting his sister talk him into this compromise they had made a few sunrises ago. CanaryStar was worried about the clan losing all their medicinal knowledge and Mossbeetle didn’t want to force an apprentice into the role he was so CanaryStar compromised with him by saying that he should teach them the very basics of herb uses and then let them continue their normal training so they would have at least some knowledge in case Mossbeetle died before getting to train an apprentice. “It may be ‘boooring’ but it’s something you need to learn in case something happens to me, and besides it’s not like I’m making you learn every single herb there is” Mossbeetle sighed out as he used a paw to rub his snout, considering physically throwing his niece out of the medicine den. Blossompaw groaned in annoyance as she tilted her head back which Mossbeetle ignored in favor of trying to continue teaching the two. “Now what is this herb?” He asked, grabbing a leaf and holding it up for the two apprentices to see. “A lead from a poisonous berry bush” Crowpaw answered bringing a ghost of a smile to Mossbeetle’s face as he nodded. “Correct, they’re used to cure sicknesses with coughing symptoms” Blossompaw’s head snapped forward after hearing that. “But wouldn’t something from a ‘poisonous’ berry bush make us sicker?” She said with her snout scrunching in confusion. “It was named that because a nicheling got sick eating the berries from the bush, only the berries and stems are poisonous but the leaves and roots are actually helpful” Mossbeetle answered as he set the leaf back onto the correct pile. “What about the roots?” Crowpaw asked with a tilt of her head as her interest was piqued. “The roots are fed to a nicheling when they’ve ingested something bad like poisonous berries to make them throw it up and get it out of their system” The medicine nicheling said masking his surprise at the fact Crowpaw seemed to be genuinely listening to what he was saying unlike Blossompaw who had turned her head to watch the other nichelings go about their lives outside the den. “Now this is a healing fruit flower” Mossbeetle said as he lifted a dried orange flower up to show to the younger nichelings, ignoring the way his leg hurt from the motion as he knew it was simply age. Crowpaw watched with intense interest while Blossompaw’s gaze flitted around the medicine den in search of something to keep her attention. “It’s extremely important, as it prevents wounds from getting infected” Mossbeetle continued as he continued to hold up the flower for a bit longer before setting it down in the correct pile. “This will be the last one, follow me” Mossbeetle said as he rose to his paws with some difficulty before starting to walk to the medicine den entrance. “Woo! Finally we’re almost free!” Blossompaw’s statement earned her a harsh stare from the medicine den that made her nervously laugh before following behind. Crowpaw was side-by-side with the medicine nicheling in an attempt to figure out what Mossbeetle was showing them next. = It only took a small trek for Mossbeetle to find what he was looking for. “What’s this?” Blossompaw asked as she reached her head forward to sniff at the bright orange fruit, quickly taking a few pawsteps back after getting a whiff of the bitter scent that overwhelmed her senses. “It has a strong scent” Mossbeetle’s words sounded harsh but he glanced at Blossompaw with concern as she coughed due to the harsh smell that she just endured. It was only once she stopped coughing, and looked a bit embarrassed, that he went back to explaining what the fruit was. “This is a healing fruit, it can help save a nicheling on the brink of death” Mossbeetle began as Crowpaw’s ears perked. “Why don’t we have a store of it at camp than?” She asked, wondering why they wouldn’t have such a useful herb on paw at all times. “Because the downside is that it loses its effectiveness very quickly once plucked from the plant so someone grabs it fresh during a bad situation” Mossbeetle explained making Crowpaw nod while Blossompaw rubbed her nose with her paw, still able to faintly ‘smell’ it in her snout. “That’s the basics so you two are free to go now” Mossbeetle said as he decided he had taught the basics to the apprentices. Blossompaw’s reaction was immediate, jumping to her paws with an excited exclamation. “FREEDOM!” She yelled out before darting off in the direction of camp, intent on practicing her battle moves as she loved doing that. Crowpaw watched her go, considering joining her, before noticing Mossbeetle wince as he started walking back in the direction of the medicine den. “Do you need some help?” She offered feeling bad as in her time in the clan she’s noticed that the medicine nicheling has obviously been feeling the tolls of aging, though if she thought on it most of the older nichelings were seeming to have more issues going about their lives now. Mossbeetle’s first reaction was to vehemently deny help as he didn’t want to acknowledge that age was catching up to him but a burst of pain in his front leg made him reconsider. “…Fine” He grumbled but Crowpaw didn’t take it personally, from what she knew he was like that towards everyone he interacted with. Crowpaw let Mossbeetle lean so some of his weight was put onto her before helping him make his way back to the medicine den.
