Icefeather
"Sometimes we must get hurt in order to grow; we must fail in order to know. Sometimes our vision only clears after our eyes are washed away with tears."
It was odd.. Camp had been rather silent lately. The cats were getting sick, for there seemed to be something floating around in the air, but he was used to it by now. Surprisingly the visits to his den had been less frequent, so he'd taken to regathering and organizing his stocks. Thoughts touched his mind as he picked up the leaves each individual herb lay in, trying to remember where he'd put them before. He wasn't exactly the most organized cat.. Marigold in the hatch, tansy above.. Chervil root out in the open in case any more sickness came to his den. He twitch his tail and took a step back, icy blue eyes narrowed. More chervil and borage leaves.. With a swift turn on his paws, he trotted out of the den and towards the woods, tail straight up and swaying in the wind.
Icefeather's jaws were open as he noticed the tense, heavy air about camp, eyes looking for any other cats as he walked. When he didn't spy any, he focused on searching for any herbs that could be of use. With a smile, he spotted some chervil right outside camp, and picked it cleanly with his teeth, careful to pull out the roots as well as the leaves. As he turned to take them back towards camp, a shiver ran up his spine as he sneezed, almost dropping his collection. He shook his pelt in annoyance as he continued back into camp. Icefeather would eat some herbs as soon as he made sure his clan was fine.. No sooner.
His pads dragged in exhaustion as he entered his stony den, tail still swaying as he put the chervil away. He plopped heavily onto his side on his nest. There were no cats seeking his attention and immediate care at the moment.. so a nap wouldn't hurt.. Just one.. Icefeather felt numb as sleep began to eat at his mind. He'd only rest his eyes for a few minutes..
