No. No no no no no no no no no. Daylily couldn't be d3ad. Fae /couldn't./ Anyone but Lily. Not her. Wandererbird wasn't crying. She was just numb. Thoughts raced through her. Number one. /I'm alone./ Nobody knew her as well as Daylily did. No one else knew how she felt, knew her story like fae did. Number two. Where was she? Lili had... conflicting beliefs. Was flower in StarClan? The dark forest? Neither? Number three. Memories. Each memory brought another with it. Their first interaction in the graveyard, sharing memories of family who had left them. Lili confiding in her faer worries about the trials, and Wandi offering a home, if she ever needed one. The last thing she ever said to her best friend. "I'll see you soon." Was it true? She was old. She wanted, more than anything, to see flower. To feel her soft pelt, her scent of ocean air, her aura of love. But she couldn't leave yet. She had a kitten. Peregrine. He was only a moon old. What if she d!ed before he could support himself? What if he d!ed because of her mistakes? Like Crabpaw. Like Gullpaw. Like Sparkpaw. Like Gempaw. But she would see Lily again. And Crabfloods. And Immortellespark. And Briniclehaunting. And Sundogforest. And her lost kits. She wasn't scared. She would embrace all she had left. Spend every moment happy. She would d!e happy. Because she had done it. What she had always wished to do. She had lived a life of happiness. She had experienced sadness, yes, but the one feeling that embodied all the others was joy. Joy at what she had. Joy that she had the chance to know these amazing cats, whom she missed with all her heart. Joy that she was a mother, a sister, a daughter. And most of all, a friend. ERP
