Autumngossamer turned to them, her heart skipping a beat to see the unfamiliar faces, but the surprise quickly left her as she pointed to the deep side of Endless Falls large pond, "There's a kit just barely keeping its head above water," She said, her head flicked to the tiny grey and white kit splashing, I can't swim," She explained quickly, already doing her best to just stay afloat on her own without her paws touching the bottom, but it was clear she didn't have the experience to get the kit without her and the kit drowning. "Are you two able to get to the kit?"

(Shadowbladeღ Pinging you because it's an old rp and it's true! And this is just a random NPC kit)

Autumngossamer's eyes were glued on the kit as Lilysoul brought it to shore. "Thank-you for saving the kit."

"Hey it's you-"

Her strawberry blond head whirled around just in time to spot Enigmaheart. His swirling black and white marbled fur catching in the sun like illuminated shadows. "Trouble must really have it in for us, always pulling you and I into the same set of circumstances," She remarked, her brown gaze glittered with interest, but ultimately turned her head to focus on keeping the kit with a few licks. In between cleaning the kit up she spoke, "You know, DayClan's land is free for all to roam. If you're interested you can explore around here for a bit. If you want that is."

(No problem! I double check back on DayClan threads the most)

"Ah y'know, just being lazy these days. I didn't notice it back in SunClan, but I think clans like that create their own drama while here things are peaceful until someone else comes in to disrupt the peace," Autumngossamer remarked. Leaning back from the kit once it was warmed up she looked up to Lilysoul, "Not one of mine, in fact, DayClan hasn't been able to produce a single litter for moons. None of us know what the cause is, all we know is that if someone has a half clan relationship by going to another land they can have kits, but not here. It's pretty strange stuff."

The kit let out a tired, but defiant mew, its little legs still sprawled out on the ground.

"Unless you guys want the kit I'll just drop it off in DayClan. I'm sure the mom will turn up," She supposed.

"Eh, come to think of it they've been pretty quiet. Don't know what to think about that, it would be too much of a blessing if that clan died out and I'm not that lucky," She said with a thoughtless shrug.

She was falling into the lull of standard small talk, discussing clan matters, watch out to not say something bad in front of the kit, normal domestic chatter that once felt boring, now felt relieving to have the luxury of having. That was until she caught the tidbit of, "I could help with any experimenting you or others might need."

Autumngossamer snorted, stomping her white paw onto the ground with muted laughter, a slow amused sigh escaping past her lips, "You're too much. Yeah, I'll definitely send out the word about your charity service, could always use more scientists like yourself, experimenting the new and strange."

"Thanks though for letting us take in the kit. I'll have to see if there's even anyone who can care for the little guy, we only have one queen and her kits are pretty grown up," She remarked. She was about to turn around to bring the kit back to camp when her ears perked up at Lilysoul's offer, "Yeah, sure, I like peace and quiet, it's heavenly, but even the self proclaimed, heaven on earth, DayClan can feel boring someday's," She said, beckoning them to follow her with a motion of her tail.

Autumngossamer took up the lead, her orange tabby body parting waves across the tall stalks of wheat that infiltrated the lightly forested land. Because of the open land everything about DayClan felt so much bigger, it was easy to believe that they had the largest territory from the illusion that wide open space created. Off in the distance was a large two-leg mansion that could be seen far out. Knowing it was an easy eye sore to spot Autumngossamer spoke up, "DayClan moves into the Keepers mansion every leafbare because having wide open land and white out blizzards is a deadly combination. Some years we don't have to make the move, but other times the winter forces us to," She explained before heading into the actual camp site area.

The camp while large given that DayClan always had one of the highest cat populations was a bit empty for a base. There were no dens, it was wide open ruin floors with three waterfalls, pointed stones, and maybe a tree or two. The moment Autumngossamer entered another orange tabby greeted her. With a brief explanation the other orange tabby was already leading the kit off towards the waterfalls.

"Alright, that's taken care of, are you guys all ready for a tour?"

Autumngossamer smirked at Lilysoul before moving past her, "Let's go then," She sang out.

Leading the way Autumngossamer led them out to the small forest they had passed through to get into camp, "So this is Cadence Valley, it's not very big and trees are very sparse, but it contains our main source for prey. Not that it will matter for long. In leafbare we move out, it snows too hard, most of the prey hibernates so we have no choice but to leave. Although the last few leafbares we've been lucky, probably because the Sun God doesn't have a vendetta against us anymore if I were to guess," She said with a tilt of her head, "Actually, Cadence Valley is home to some of the smallest foxes, swift foxes."

Just then a short fox, even smaller than some cats walked by them before skittishly running in the other direction at the sight of them. 

"There's one of them, but I have a fondness to foxes, that's how I was adopted. A DayClan patrol found me and my sisters being nursed by a fox, I can hardly remember, but good times I'm sure," Autumngossamer said fondly.
