Moon 13 - Jokes and Stealing

A small page as there wasn't a lot going on this moon. Wormface keeps the toy in her nest as it reminds her of one she had as a kittypet

Moon 15 - Arguments...

...and a close brush with death

--

After three weeks, I post once more! Some interesting developments that Sootrain tries his best to believe were just from lack of sleep

CW for a dead cat/blood

"Thanks." Moonshade answers in a distracted fashion as she rolls up the rest of Brokenbellow's temporary nest. She'll have Wormface help her take it out later.

It's silent for a moment. Sootrain pads further into the cave, placing the freshly gathered herbs nearby. Moonshade's eyes flicker up when instead of leaving, he settles down onto his haunches.

Her whiskers twitch in barely contained amusement. It was always easy to tell when something is on Sootrain's mind.

"They're really keeping them, huh?" Sootrain turns his head to look outside. She follows his gaze to the young kits wandering about on stubby legs. Elmstar is meowing encouragingly to them.

"Where else would they go?" Sure they could send them to another Clan but they were far less welcoming to outsiders. On top of that, neither Elmstar or Skyminnow were sure who attacked their mother. Could've been anyone.

Sootrain grunts. "We might not have enough prey."

"It's warming up. They don't eat that much." Moonshade can't keep the slightly sharp tone out of her voice. She knows where the concern comes from though it's still a little frustrating. "Stop letting your dreams affect you so much."

Moon 14 - Kits and Worries

Wrote a little for this moon as my energy for making pages dipped after I made the second page :P

The kits were adopted when they were newborns but I made them look closer to one moon old so it'd make more sense that they'd remember what their mother called them

Moon 11 - Danger and usual Clan business

--

Skyminnow could've died from that dog but Sootrain doesn't care and complains about her anyway

I had to redraw the sketch for the last panel three times before I was okay with it

Moon 12 - New Beginnings

-

This marks the end of Year 1! And the start of me using a new brush, which is making it much more fun for me to draw!

I'm honestly proud of myself that I managed to get this far as usually I get bored easily with personal projects but taking breaks whenever I need is helping a ton with keeping me motivated

Moon 9 - Change

-

EelClan finally has a leader!

Originally Skyminnow was going to be the next leader as this is a legacy challenge but StarClan cats kept wanting to send signs/speak to Elmfur, so I decided they felt that Elm would be a better leader than Sky would

Though Sky gets to be Elmstar's deputy

Moon 8: Another member

--

Not much happened this moon! Wormface still has a lot to learn about being a warrior.

Moonpaw is worried about Elmpaw telling her of the strange dreams she's been having and Wormface is not helping her mood at all

(Moon is 12 moons and Elm/Sky are 10 moons. I forgot it in the page lol)

Moon 7 Part 1: Admiration and Training

--

Fun fact this is the first time I've tried to draw a proper fighting scene!

I have a ref for Skypaw yet I still can't draw her spots consistently besides the ones on her head and tail lol
