DUSKLION
she/her | riverclan's head lionheart | 27 moons | active purrks

With the day finally winding down and providing her with the ability to rest, Dusklion turned not to the warrior's den, but towards the camp entrance. Pelt dark like a shadow she slunk out into the night and made her way through the territory on quick paws. She was focused, blue eyes narrowed and already adjusted to the dim nightfall around her. The Starcave was too far to travel to without it being suspicious on where she had been, so the dark tabby had elected for a different approach.

The sounds of the river came to her before the sight of it did, paws slowing down after leaping over a fallen branch. There was no scent of predators or threats nearby, so Dusk came right up to the edge of the current. With the light of the nearly full moon above her she caught sight of an overhang in which she could spend the right. "Paws crossed it works this time," she breathed as she slipped underneath the overhanging foliage, finding the ramshackle nest. It would be an uncomfortable sleep, that was for sure, but she was here to dream. And so the dark tabby circled the thrown-together moss nest and curled up, tucking her nose under her paw but keeping her ears perked, letting the sounds of the river drift away with her...

Opening her eyes only a bit, Dusklion had been expecting to see RiverClan's territory. So when she realized it was different - more.. ethereal than the forest below - she scrambled to her paws in excitement. "I did it??" came the shocked discovery as she spun around in circles, eventually looking out around her. This was StarClan! She was sure of it. Joy tingled her paws as the RiverClan warrior spun around once more - a gasp tumbling from her as she spotted a familiar shape.

"Fury!" Now, Dusklion was well aware that the StarClan tom likely didn't know who she was outside of her name. But she knew him, just like she knew Bitey and Lions. "I finally did it! You don't know how long I've been tryin' to get here - 'n now I'm here! 'N so are you!" It was evident the pure bliss she was experiencing. Paws flexed where she stood, tail waving with pride. Who else could say they got to spend their dreams with one of the greatest warriors to ever grace RiverClan??
