As the last of the Avian invaders fled back to their territory, the Volcanites chanted the victory to the sky. They had caught enough prey earlier for a feast, so to celebrate that victory, all will eat well tonight. As the passal was all settling down to eat, Firefly leaped up onto the scorched boulder in the center of the clearing to address the group
"Cats of the Volcanites, the Avians have invaded us for the last time! This time we will bring the battle to them! We raid at dawn!" Firefly shouted enthusiastically
The cats all raised their heads and gave jubilant cries to the dimming afternoon light. We will win!
"Volcanites! Volcanites! Volcanites!" they shouted to the sky
The excitement started to fade as the cats began to feel the wounds that they had received when the Avians raided. As a line formed outside the healer's den, Flame padded over to wait for his turn to have his wounds treated. When it was his turn, Cinder, the Volcanite healer came over to check his wounds. Cinder gave Flame's pelt a quick sniff and turned to face Ash, the Neophyte healer
"Ok, how would you treat Flame's scratches?" Cinder quizzed the young cat
"Um, we would, um, put marigold petals on the scratches," Ash responded hesitantly
"And..." Cinder prompted Ash to finish the remedy
"And then cover the wounds with cobweb" Ash finished more confidently
"Good. now go get the marigold and cobweb" said Cinder, pushing Ash into motion with her nose
As Ash scurried off to get the supplies to heal Flame, he looked around at the clan that was starting to drift to their dens to rest up for tomorrow's raid on the Avians. Ash returned and Cinder started guiding her through how to put the marigold and cobwebs on. When they were done, Flame padded away to get some sleep so he would be ready for the battle that the coming dawn would bring.
