Goldenstar had let his quiet worries follow him the entire time up to the seastones. He found it somewhat funny how Halestar had chosen a cat with anxiety to be her deputy, but hey, maybe she had other reasons. Either way, Halestar was gone now, and he was leader. Sure, he was very, very anxious, and slightly uncomfortable, but nonetheless, he was here now, and he couldn’t exactly go back.
Once he finally got to a good place, he saw Blazingstar. He wanted to say hello in some way, but, for whatever reason, Golden thought that Blazing looked a little on edge. That, added with the fact he didn’t usally talk to cats outside his own clan, made him just be quiet for the time being. To make up for that, he thought about the conversation he had with Halfgaze awhile back. He said he would ask Russetstar about her idea, and started to ponder what he would say to the Riverclan leader.
