The New Light of Hope Book I: The Adventure Begins.

Chapter IV: The Forest Spirits Division.

Aurora:

The next day, we left our homes and went back into the forest. On that same day, the animals would show us around the Forest Spirits Division, which was the division that we entered when we first entered the forest, so we knew how to get there.
…
We soon made it to the Forest Spirits Division, where Chief CrimsonPelt and BlueFire were waiting for us at the entrance of the campus. "Welcome back," Chief CrimsonPelt said, "are you all ready to have a look around our division?"

Amethyst: "Yes, sir. We're ready."

Chief CrimsonPelt: "Good, follow me and BlueFire."

We did so, the inside was very exquisite, more beautiful than any other part of the forest that we have ever seen before. We were brought to a den where a vixen came out of the den and greeted CrimsonPelt. "Hello, dear." She said. "Hello." He replied back. She then looked at us and then looked at CrimsonPelt. "Who are they?" She asked.

Chief CrimsonPelt: "They are the new Heroes of the Seventh Generation."

Vixen: "They are?"

Chief CrimsonPelt: "Yes."

Vixen: "Hello, all of you. My name is FlowerHeart, I am the mate of CrimsonPelt."

Aurora: "Hello, FlowerHeart. My name's Aurora and these are my friends, Amethyst, Sadie, Jemma, Abigail, Bellatrix, Milly, and Summer."

FlowerHeart: "Well, it is an honor to meet all eight of you."

Aurora: "We can say the same thing as well, ma'am."

Chief CrimsonPelt: "I was about to show them the Leader's Den."

FlowerHeart: "Okay. Come on in."

We entered the Leader's Den, which was very spacious. "This is where the leader sleeps." BlueFire said. "So if there is ever a problem, always remember this: The Leader's Den is always in the center of the camp."

This was something that we kept in mind, so that way, if there was ever an emergency, we would run to the center of the camp to get the leader. "Yes, sir. We'll remember just that." Amethyst said.

Chief CrimsonPelt: "That is good to hear."

Sadie: "Sir, if you don't mind me asking, what exactly makes an animal a leader and why?"

Chief CrimsonPelt: "Good question in which I will most certainly answer. It is a duty to lead, of course. But in order to become leader, you first must become the co-leader chosen by the leader if they recently took on the position as leader or if the previous co-leader retires or dies or even exiled if they disobey the Code of Conduct or possibly even step down from their position as co-leader. The co-leader must also complete different tasks that are given by the leader, mainly to give them a basic overview on the responsibility of being leader. When the leader dies, the co-leader his or her place and become the new leader."

Sadie: "Well, that makes sense. Because if there's leader, then there won't be anyone to lead the division."

Chief CrimsonPelt: "Exactly."

Sadie: "But, wait. What if the leader dies before they named the co-leader as the new leader?"

BlueFire: "Then the co-leader will sleep in the Leader's Den where the leader will visit them in their dream and name them as the new leader."

Jemma: "Makes sense."

Chief CrimsonPelt: "But if they feel like they do not have what it takes to be the leader, then they can always change their mind soon after."
