Queens murmur to kits in the nursery den; elders trade low gossip near their shelter. The air is heavy with the scent of soaked earth and crushed pine. A cool gust stirs you's fur as they edge past the entrance boulder. An odd, watchful stillness hangs over the clearing—too quiet for a clan branded as violent. Why have you come to this guarded place at such an hour?
