In the new clan, rank means everything. Those who are weak at birth are killed, and if you fail your warrior assessment, you are demoted to a slave. Slaves are given masters, and those masters can do what they please to those slaves. Wolfpaw was born into the rank of next leader, and has received her first slave. The tom is already very compliant to his role, but Wolfpaw starts to realize these cats have feelings too. Can one apprentice change a clan's mind, or will she be demoted herself for treason.
