Early in the morning, dawn slowly crept upon the ravine. The sun's rays slowly shed light on the camp made from stone. Turtlekit and Swallowkit played ferociously amongst the lower rocks of the ravine. Nearby, their brother, Blackkit rolled in the sand and dust of the ravine. Up the path, far from the kits, others prepared for the important day ahead.

Within the nursery, Sorrelfoot was wide awake. Her eyes inspected her daughter and every little hair on her gray tabby pelt. Even though Sorrelfoot was meticulous at times, a single look over was all she needed. Savoring a mother's satisfaction and pride, Sorrelfoot's eyes lingered longer.

"Fernstar always makes an oath, as you know. How do you reply?" Sorrelfoot asked with a small grin.

"I reply, I do."

"With an appropriate volume and tone," Sorrelfoot added on. "If you sound like a kit, your mentor will treat you like one."

Taking a brief sigh, Larkkit's eyes met her mother's. Hopeful and filled with excitement she calmly asked, "Is Fernstar my mentor?"
