He was glad that Bumblekit was younger than Fallowbird's litter- he couldn't bring himself to hold his son's ceremony. He was relieved of that burden for now, but soon...he'd have no choice. Bumblekit would be six moons, as would Magpiekit. The whole situation would be heart-wrenching, from watching his sons grow to having to see Magpiekit taken away from Ravenstar.
He wouldn't even wish that agony on Lynxstar.
The lean black smoke tom scaled the ceremony place like he'd done several times before, wishing his previous deputies and medicine cats had been as fortunate as he had. Time and time again, one of them had their lives claimed, yet Stormstar was yet to lose a single life. He'd faced war, and even then, he walked out with but minor injuries.
The leader loved his clan- from the lay of its land to its quiet customs. But he loved Bumblekit very, very much- how could a father not be biased of his own son? It was only natural, an innate sense for the sake of ensuring that a parent kept their children safe. Love. How he loved his son...how he loved his mother, and Bumblekit's brother who was temporarily estranged from them.
...So it was only natural that Stormstar would let Bumblekit sit with him during meetings.
"May all cats old enough to run with the wind join me beneath the Tall Tree for a clan meeting!" Stormstar's voice rang out across the vast WindClan camp as he patiently waited for his clanmates to gather. It would be a big day for the clan, as Fallowbird had once again provided them with a bountiful litter of promising young warriors. She would surely be relieved to have less little ones to look after, too. It would be up to their mentors to chase after them now.
He had to draw in a deep, long breath for this one. "Kestrelkit, Brackenkit, Creekkit, Brookkit, and Mothkit, you have reached the age of six moons, and it is time for you to be apprenticed. From this day on, until you receive your warrior name, you will be known as Kestrelpaw, Brackenpaw, Creekpaw, Brookpaw, and Mothpaw. Kestrelpaw shall be mentored by Willowstripe. Brackenpaw will be mentored by NPCface. Creekpaw will be mentored by Poppyleap. Brookpaw will be under the mentorship of Meadowpool. Lastly, Mothpaw will be mentored by Honeyfrost. I hope these capable warriors will pass on all their knowledge."
