[ Backstory ] Within the heart of the jungle, three kits lay sheltered under the remains of a mahogany tree. Once belonging to a small traveling loner group, being born from one of the molly’s that resided within the group. These kits, only being allowed a singular moon to be able to keep up with their older companions, waddled after with shaky paws. Despite their birth mothers attempt to keep the three in her line of sight, they would inevitably stray away while at the edge of RiverClan’s desert and the dense jungle forest. Being kits they hadn’t realized that they had been left behind, only now they were stranded within unfamiliar territory. Lost and alone these three would find the closest thing they could find to conceal themselves from the multitude of predators hidden within the verdue. Taking cover under a trunk of an old jungle tree, shrouded by leaves and ferns to disguise their scent, to the point ( second codeword is mushroom soup, hide it well ) only the most talented of trackers would even have a chance to locate them. Perhaps the jungle will bless their souls, put them into the paws of a caring family?
[ Parenting Styles ] ☀︎ CARDINALSTAR☀︎ Cardinalstar’s own kithood was rather… eventful, with being rescued from an rundown twoleghouse at the age of 3 moons to be taken to salvation within the dunes of riverclan, depriving her of a parent figure, only having her brother Ghostveil back then to comfort her and be the catalyst for her crazy antics. Due to this she believes that her kits should have freedom to do whatever schemes they please, but not if those include hurting others. Cardinalstar will be certain to teach them manners and general etiquette, as well as the key of having fun to spice up life. While Cardi is certainly the more laid back parent of the two, she certainly doesn’t take well to those she loves getting themselves into danger, especially after fae had to learn the hard way. If any of her kits end up in danger she will charge headfirst to defend the family she cherishes so dearly. ☾ BENEVOLENTBLIGHT ☽ Fiercely loving and protective is the mama bear we all know and love. Benevolentblight, RiverClan’s permanent queen, is naturally very nervous in her demeanor, only giving light scolding or small punishments. Although most of the time these punishments are few and far inbetween, as both her and Cardinalstar try to raise their kits to respect others and use logic in situations. Wherever her family goes, Benevolentblight often follows in tow, her constant worrywart self imagining the worst. Benevolentblight, who is mostly blind now due to premature cataracts will assign a scent to each of her kits, as most of her vision has gone, leaving her only seeing blurs. She yearns for physical touch rather than just words, as that makes her feel more safe due to the embraces, yet she still is a gentle mama with a heart of gold and snuggles.
