Dawn, Spring 1953, Meeting place, Ancient White Cats Tribe
Millie went to see her mentor, Frosty Flowers. The princess was sitting there, expecting her.
"Hello Millie" Frosty Flowers greeted the trainee.
"Hello Frosty Flowers" Millie greeted the princess.
"Since this is your first day of training, it's more of an introduction to you" Frosty Flowers said. "Today I will tell you what trainees do. Tomorrow will be a tour of the camp. The day after tomorrow will be a tour of the territory and the kingdoms that border us"
Millie sat up, ears perked. Frosty Flowers let out a soft chuckle. "It's not that deep Millie. You're going to experience it" She reassured the trainee. She padded over to the beginning of the entrance to camp. "Stand right here"
Millie nodded and padded to the entrance and stood where Frosty Flowers was waiting.
"This is the entrance to our tribe" Frosty Flowers said. "This is the way you will leave to enter the territory and this is the way you will come in"
Frosty Flowers suddenly trotted over to the nursery without warning. Millie raced after the princess.
"This is obviously the nursery. This was where you entered and came out of" Frosty Flowers said. "Obviously youngsters and mothers stay here"
Millie rolled her eyes as in "Duh". She followed Frosty Flowers to the next den. A den slightly bigger than the nursery.
"This is the trainee den. This is where trainees like you entered and came out of" Frosty Flowers said. "Obviously trainees stay here"
Then they reached the next den. A den that's way bigger than the trainee den. There were blade weapons like swords in there.
"This is the warrior den. This is where warriors enter and come out of" Frosty Flowers said. "Obviously warriors stay here. You will be one of these warriors some day"
Then they reached the next den. A den that's the same size as the warrior den. The scent of herbs inside filled the den and hit Millie like a collapsing cave.
"This is the healer den. This is where healers enter and come out of" Frosty Flowers said. "Obviously healers stay here. Who knows, maybe you would like to be a great healer instead of a warrior"
"It smells nice in here! Is that mint?" Millie asked with excitement.
"Yes the healer den always has a pleasing scent" Frosty Flowers purred with approval. "The mint smell is probably catmint which soothes sore throats and soaks up blood"
They moved on to the next den. It was the same size as the trainee den. Probably sucks if a cat dies in there and everybody has to smell the body rotting and then flies start getting involved.
"This is the elder den. This is where the retired warriors, healers, princes and princesses go to rest" Frosty Flowers said. "Obviously elders stay here. The elders here are such great storytellers. Have you listened to Tigertooth's tale of Tomoka?"
"No. Who's Tomoka?" Millie asked as she tilted her head in confusion.
Frosty Flowers faked gasped in mock surprise. "You haven't heard of the tale of Tomoka? Why, Tigertooth is one of the greatest elders to tell stories. He tells stories like Tomoka, the Kazilla, Starry Maple and more!"
"I'll give them a listen when I have time" Millie said.
They moved on and stopped at a pile of dead small animals and a bucket next to the dead animals.
"This is the prey pile. Everyone eats from here" Frosty Flowers said. "You will learn how to hunt prey and bring them here. This bucket is where you put rotten prey in"
Millie shivered at this. Hopefully she doesn't have to touch a single rotted prey and Daisy or a warrior would do it.
"Since you're a trainee you will also be responsible for helping put rotted prey in the bucket" Frosty Flowers said.
Millie stuck out her tongue in disgust. Rotted prey smells horrible, and buckets don't play a part in helping.
Frosty Flowers continued her little tour. They explored the meeting place and the ruler den where the king or queen and the prince or princess stayed.
"The tour is over. I'll give the rest of the day a free day for you" Frosty Flowers said. "I recommend listening to Tigertooth's stories or resting up so we can explore the territory"
