Nightshade led the warriors into the camp as Sabela had instructed her too. Leaping onto the silver stone, she didn't have to wait long for them to assemble around her. "Dearest Siverians, it is my regret to say that the Yozorans and Sheerans are starting trouble with each other. It does not yet involve us, however, if this evolves into something more, it will. Why? Well, normally it would simply be between the Yozorans and Sheerans, and we'd leave it at that. But with this plague running rampant, if two of the packs start warring, we only have half the chance we originally did of finding a cure. In times like these, injustice is not an option. Sabela has given me strict instructions to keep all neophytes and newly made warriors in camp. Elders, kits, and queens, please remain in your den until our watch is over. The rouges have attacked in many places lately, so now we are facing threats from all sides. Mystic, you will be in charge of the group here until Sabela returns. All shall stay with you except for Stigg, Dashina, Asha, and myself. I will lead my patrol towards the border with the Yozorans, but we won't cross it unless we are given a sign to do so. Watch carefully and keep your senses alert. Let's go!" Nightshade leaped off of the rock and sprinted out of the camp with her patrol.

Dashina lie asleep where Riley once was, her wailing had halted and now evolved to a troubled sleep. She shifted and twitched her ears, her feet kicking out.
"Riley no...!" she would whisper with tears leaking from her closed eyes. "Don't--Don't leave me in the dark!" she would whimper.

"Dashina!" Nightshade snapped. "I don't think Riley would want you wasting away out here," she sighed, voice growing softer. "Dashina, we need you to come on patrol with us. The pack needs you. Your pups need you to do this for their safety..."

"Nobody protected Riley." she muttered her eyes closed as her tears increased. She cracked her eyes opened and she leaped to her feet to glare weakly at Nightshade. "Riley is gone and all Sabela is thinking about is a war that doesn't concern us!" she snapped at her. She stood for several moments, glaring into Nightshade's eyes.
She dropped her head, her tail already resting on the ground. The mournful fae craned her neck up at Nightshade apologetically.
"I'm sorry Nightshade, I just don't think I can live without him. I had no light without Riley, before he entered my life I lived alone and cold, lurking blindly in darkness. He lit up my life... he gave me a reason to live, Nightshade. Now--Now what am I?" her eyes closed and her shoulders lowered.

Nightshade raised Dashina's head with her paws. "What are you? Why, Dashina, you are a brave warrior, a strong spirit, and a beautiful mother. We will stop this war, and protect your children. Yours and Riley's children."

How can I live on if I look at Palenia and see only Riley? she thought desperately. I'm nothing without Riley.
Despite her own thoughts she blindly nodded. Nothing..

Nightshade nodded to the warriors, and was off once more, heading towards the border. She hoped to Twilight there would be no trouble in camp while she was gone. That would be the last thing we need at a time like this...

Asha touched Dashina with her nose, "Dashina, Riley doesn't want you to be like this, I can feel it. Don't let him down, take care of your pups, they will bring you light darling," she murmured. She licked the back of her head like a mother would. She stepped back and stood by Nightshade.
