the medicine den was slowly clearing, the stream of warriors coming in and out of the den slowly letting up, and only few cats were still bound to the medicine den and minkpaw finally felt like she could leave the den without a cat dying. they left the den, probably for the first time since the raid, squinting against the harsh light of sunhigh. minkpaw briefly considered eating but decided against it after seeing the state of the freshkill pile, she should train instead, grow into a cat that could be more useful for the clan. "fallenwish can you do my territory tour with me?" she mewed after approaching said warrior, she was far too old to be still in need for training this basic but there was no getting around it either way.

Fallenwish hadn't expected to be called. She wasn't going to be very good at many training types. However, she could still walk. "Oh- sure Minkpaw!" She hoped she could remember every part of the territory. "I might be a bit slow, though," She noted. With that, she asked for Minkpaw to follow her as she limped out of camp.
After a bit of walking, she stopped. The trek had been good practice for moving since she hadn't tried much since her forepaw broke. "This is Riverclan territory. I hope you've been out here. Rivers, some trees, willows in some spots. You know, riverclan stuff." Fallenwish said. "Once you're ready, we can go into more specific areas."
[ oml im so sorry this took so long I'm a little forgetful gnome who had visitors over for 3 days ]

"thats okay, ive just been behind on training a bit" she ensured before following fallenwish out of camp, she was at least vaguely familiar with most of the territory from patrols and the territory tour she got many many moons ago but it was better to refresh the memory especially now that she was pretty much old enough to theoretically become a warrior. the thought made her uncomfortable but riverclan needed anyone they could get, and it was her responsibility to do her best for her clan. perhaps fallenwish hadnt been the best cat to ask, she thought, watching the warrior limp infront of her. they made it to a spot further into the territory after all and minkpaw nosed around a bit, checking around the roots of trees and shrubs for herbs and prey holes. "im alright, we can go on" she mewed as they returned to fallenwish.

Fallenwish watched Minkpaw for a bit before they came back. "Alright, we're moving on," Fallenwish nodded.
Fallenwish got up and began to wobble for a bit. She managed to get better, but not by much. "You'd be surprised how much a forepaw that doesn't work impedes your speed. Probably not as much as a hind leg, but still." She said idly.
"This is Haven Springs. I like to hang out here, but there's not much to hunt or gather." She said after trekking over the bridge. "Once your done checking out here, which shouldn't take long, we can go to a different area."

minkpaw frowned at the warrior wobble and struggle to walk properly, she really shouldve asked someone else, "we dont have to go far today, im sure theres another cat that would be willing to show me around" she assured the warrior before leaving to familiarise herself with haven springs. she had been here recently too, once on patrol and once in company of cherryswirl but she hadnt stuck around a long either time, being pressured by her patrol mates to hurry up the one time and cherryswirl taking her to a different place the other time. oh, and she had been here briefly in company of pinefire if she remembered correctly. the water was off limits for now, listening to the dull roaring while pointedly ignoring the water itself. she pawed at the bush she had caught the lizard last time before circling around again to return to fallenwish. "i caught a lizard here last time" they proudly proclaimed before flicking her tail and cocking her head to signal that she was ready to go but wanting to know if the warrior was too.

"No, I can go," Fallenwish said.
After a bit more trekking, she arrived. "This is Sleepy Thicket. There's apparently a ghost here, or something." She didn't wait for Minkpaw to respond, but to take a breath before resuming her slower pace.
"This is Lionsbeach. It's a beach, as you can probably tell." Then she rested while waiting for minkpaw to be ready to continue. She was getting a bit faster now- it was good practice.

another place she been at recently, not just once but twice actually, back to back, once on garlicfeathers hunting patrol where she had encountered the weird presence in the air and also caught a rabbit, and once to look around for herbs. the herb patrol wasnt necesarrily memorable but, if she remembered correctly, that had been the first patrol she herself had lead..and it was also weird that these patrols had been only a day apart. she kept quiet this time, the warrior didnt seem to be overly interested in conversing with her anyway. she took a brief look around, though she had seen enough from her recent patrols so she returned to fallenwish.
--
lionsbeach was actually the first spot on their tour she didnt remember visiting recently, it was too cold and birds were hard to catch anyway so she guessed most cats didnt really seek out this place in the territory much. she went to look around, paws sinking into the cold, wet rocky sand right by the water and harsh gusts of air made her shiver, this was by far her least favourite place so far. watching the water draw back just to flood the sand again a moment later, carrying lots of tiny rocks, sand and shells was nice though. she walked around a bit longer, letting the salty water soak into her paws and bathed in the pleasant feeling of sand being moved around her legs by the waves, before picking out a particularly pretty shell to gift to cobwebpaw later and trotting back to fallenwish. the salty taste and smell made her grimace and feel a sneeze coming on but it was worth it, especially now that she was noticing how much she had already walked today without getting overly out of breath or anything. perhaps she was finally going to be able to get her sickness behind her.

Fallenwish watched Minkpaw before they finished. She noticed her carrying something.
She approached another part of territory after Lionsbeach. "This is Rugged Range. It's far from most clans, but we may as well keep it. You can go in, but there's no way in hell I'm walking on that right now." She noticed what Minkpaw was holding. "Nice shell." She said, paying it no mind.

"its okay, dont worry i was sent up there for patrol recently we dont have to go all the way" she mumbled around the shell. rugged range had not been the best choice for a herb patrol, especially not sending two cats with herbal knowledge up there to kick around rocks trying to find anything of use, during leafbare. "its for cobwebpaw" the apprentice admitted with a smile. hopefully cobwebpaw would appreciate the shell as much as minkpaw would if she were the one receiving it.

"Hm, okay." Fallenwish continued on the territory tour. Even though she was already pretty slow.
"This is the Thunderclan border, Smallpines. I'm going to continue no,w because there are some cats behind that scent line that wouldn't mind, killing us to please Bumblestar," She said, remembering the pain of her leg being bitten so hard.
She left without a thought. Then, she upon the Windclan Border. "This is Windclan border. Windclan is a pretty reasonable clan, but right now I've been seeing some things running around the borders." She said. "You can check out this place a bit, but let me know if you see anything and we can leave."
[omg wco ate my reply im so sorry ]
