Irisfrost
After the meeting had concluded, Irisfrost took Grimpaw out, only glancing at him as she exited camp to ensure he was following. She led him a fair way from camp, relishing the damp, rich earth beneath her paws, so different from the hard stones in RiverClan's mountain territory. She had missed this, especially in the early days there, where her paws had been soft and fear of rolling her ankle on a loose pebble had been forefront in her mind. There was no need to worry about that here.
Eventually Irisfrost stopped and turned towards Grimpaw. "I'll be teaching you land hunting today." She had chosen it over fishing because the skill could be applied anywhere; from RiverClan's territory to the mountains they had temporarily called home. And the past few moons had opened her eyes to how easily the other clans could team up and drive them out again. They didn't have any reason to at the moment, but who knew what the future held? If
one clanmate messed up badly enough, it might push the other clans to attack them. She had seen it with Dusklion- Stormstar. Granted, Fallownose's death wasn't the only reason for the raid, but it was what had tipped them over the edge.
Never mind. No need to worry about the future. "Copy me," Irisfrost told her apprentice before dropping into a hunter's crouch. She checked that her stance was perfect; she didn't want to give Grimpaw a bad example to follow.
