Breezeheart, Birdflight, Wildfur, Boulder, Red, Ice, Pool
Marsh Colony Mentors have it rough. Not many in the Colony are interested in Mentoring full time. Even if they just had a few more cats in their ranks, Breezeheart and Birdflight wouldn’t have felt so strained. Luckily, there’s always Rangers available to help with the bulk of a New-Claw’s training, but Mentors are supposed to be able to supervise all aspects of their training. And it’s become clear that some cats have slipped through the cracks…
Breezeheart spoke with Captain Hawkshell to try to remedy one such case. His nephew, Wildfur, who was always struggling to find his place and be part of the Colony, should be tested to become a Mentor. Breezeheart’s own motives were plain to see: as someone who was born a Renegade, an outsider, Breezeheart always took great pride in being the best he could be for the Colony, and seeing one of his own blood take his colony for granted stung his own ego.
But Breezeheart reasoned that maybe making Wildfur a mentor could go a long way into correcting this issue. Giving Wildfur responsibility, accountability, and hopefully community with Birdflight and himself would not only fulfill a need of the Colony, but also give Wildfur another chance.
“The original plan was to have Breezeheart monitor your training of Pool and decide afterward if you would be a good Mentor. Now, there is no choice; Birdflight cannot do all of a Mentor’s duties by themself. They will need help, and despite your…hesitance, I think additional responsibilities will serve you well,” (Hawkshell to Wildfur)
