[ SAFETY IS NOW ACTIVE ] Delphine gathered all of the apprentices together outside of camp. `I'm very proud of you all,` she immediately began, `for your efforts on the prey hunting this past moon. You've all done excellent and now that it's newleaf it only gets easier-- but as time goes on there will be less kits and more mouths to feed, so don't get /too/ relaxed. Laziness will be your downfall, just like the past cats.` `Regardless. I am proud. But hunting is not /all/ of a warriors duties. While you must hunt, you must also guard your territory from rogues and predators. MossClan has a wide expanse of varying territory that you must be able to navigate with even your eyes closed. I am entrusting you all the responsibility of keeping this territory and land safe.` `You have all likely had a chance to explore the territory somewhat, but it is time you /really/ observe and learn about your own home.` `Please go patrol in any of the cardinal directions, but beware there are varying obstacles for each area. To the north are the ancient pine forests, with trees that stretch far into the skies' grasp. To the east are meadows of many poisonous herbs and wildflowers. The western border holds peatlands and bogs, and of course, to the south is the enemy.` [ flurryclan territory is getting retconned to peatlands eventually so sorry flurryclan ] `Choose one of those areas to explore, and return and discuss with a partner who explored a /different/ area what you learned and gained.` --- oorp instructions go to the border studio, pick a border to patrol and do so. please note you can only roleplay w/ an urchinclan cat if youre doing the southern border, otherwise you should patrol w/ a loner or another mossclanner or whatnot come back and do a roleplay with someone who roleplayed a DIFFERENT border than you chose , you ONLY get the exp if you come back and do the discussion roleplay! deadline is 7/27
