A cold gush of wind blew through a grey tortoiseshell toms short fur. He looked up at the grand castle in front of him. He could smell cats. He hoped that these cats could help him. His back leg had been infected by a rat bite. He would cure it himself, but he didn't know how. Weak, he sat down on the hard ground and began to lick his wound and just hoped some cat would find him.

the silver tabby was on her way into the forest when she spotted an unrecognizable tom. he was cleaning a wound. being the sweet-natured she-cat she is, she padded over to him. "hello," she murmured gently, glancing at the weak tom's wound. "would you like some herbs for that?" it wasn't exactly one of her best approaches, but it was all she could think of at the moment. she didn't want to ask him of his business, and she wasn't particularly sure whether he was joining or not.

" oh! Thank you!" The tom looked up in surprise. " who are you?" The she cat seemed very nice and kind. " do you live in that grand castle?"

[he can as long as he proves his loyalty and you remain active]
just then, the she-cat straightened her posture, a smile formed on her lips. "i am regalstar, queen of the monarchy. yes, we live in the castle." she said, nodding towards the castle. "what is your name?"

" Sammie." he replied. " You are head of all the cats living in that castle?" He thought of how amazing that would be, ruling over a giant castle like that. " I was born a loner to an abandoned kittypet. Traveling all my life ever since she kicked me and my brother out of her makeshift den."

"kicked you out, huh?" the queen grinned. "well, you are more than welcome here, sammie." she said more seriously, regaining her authoritative tone, though still remaining kind.

" thank you, regalstar." Sammie replied. " I am very lucky to have found you and your castle." Most other groups of cats he meet were very hostile to him

"and we are very lucky to have you too." she chuckled. "follow me and i will find some herbs for you. we do not have an active physician at the moment, but we do have some left-over herbs in that den." regalstar turned, slowly heading back to the bridge. but one thing she didn't think of was whether or not the tom could travel the last few tree-lengths with a hurt leg.

" Alrighty then." Sammie heaved himself up and limped his way over to the Leader. " I have been traveling a moon with this leg, i think i can make it to the castle." He replied.

she nodded and lead him to the bridge of the castle. "be careful on the bridge, okay? its a pretty deep drop below and the ledge can be pretty frightening for newcomers." the queen advised.

Sammie tried not to look down, but his curious eyes wandered there. The ledge a few tail lengths to his right looked like a bottomless pit. He shuddered, and tried to keep walking. He glanced at Regalstar, who looked purrfectly calm.

Flame met the two crossing the bridge. "Hello Regalstar" he mewed, dipping his head. His gaze then went to the other tom. His first thought was surprise, there weren't many tortoiseshell toms about. "Hello" he said to Sammie, though he didn't know that tom's name. Seeing he was hurt, the knight quickly stepped to the side to allow the pair to keep going, and fell into step beside his leader.

regalstar smiled at the sight of flame, and simply dipped her head to the knight. she opened her mouth to speak, but closed it immediately. she would let him respond for himself.
