First things first, good job and a congratulations to everyone who posted on the LeafClan battle! SILVERSTAR IS FINALLY DEAD YAY ^^ These ceremonies will be taking place one night after the vigil held for the cats killed in the Major War, which I have not yet posted.
Now, onto the ceremonies!
If you asked for a ceremony, remember that you must also have posted them on the MidnightClan Member List in order for them to receive their ceremony. As I am leaving for the next week, you will have to wait until the next ceremonies for you cat to move up ranks.
Also, feel free to have your cats try to approach Bramblestar with any questions, concerns, or comments after the ceremonies. ;3
And for the moment we've allll been waiting for, enjoy~!
Leafbare was loosening its icy grip on the forest, just as Silverstar had loosened her grip on LeafClan with her death in the Major War, but neither have truly disappeared forever. Leafbare will come again in a year, with its bitter cold and powdery snows; Silverstar has left LeafClan in ruins and will haunt the Clans for generations to come. Everything around them was a circle. The seasons, the days, life and death...
Bramblestar padded out of his den, leaving the uneaten mouse and almost all emotions beside his nest, his face as expressionless and stony as ever as he leaped up onto the Skystone. The death of his son had hit the MidnightClan leader hard. Why did he disobey me? He could have been safe in the camp! Why did you have to take him, StarClan? Why, StarClan, why?! The tom let out a hiss in his frustration with his starry ancestors before remembering that he was not alone, and that cats had probably been watching him since he emerged from the den.
"Cats of MidnightClan, all who are well-enough to listen, gather for a Clan meeting." His voice betrayed a hint of tiredness as he called the Clan together. Of all things, he did not want to do ceremonies now, but it was his duty to name the new apprentices and warriors each moon, and that duty needed to be carried out.
He waited a few moments for the Clan to appear and then continued, although his tone was rather flat. He knew in the back of his mind that most of the Clan was probably happy that Silverstar was dead, but he just couldn't bring himself to act cheery with or for them. but he could still deliver a pretty good speech. "Even with the injuries produced by the Major War, MidnightClan and all the other Clans have prevailed and defeated Silverstar. Hopefully, LeafClan will be able to work it's way back to being a respectable Clan under new leadership--whomever StarClan has chosen--and that we may have peaceful borders with them for many moons to come. but, LeafClan aside, we have new warriors and apprentices to name."
"Fernpaw, under the watchful eyes of the stars, I now give you your warrior name of Fernfeather. I welcome you as a full warrior of MidnightClan. May StarClan guide and protect you for many moons to come, until you retire to the elders' den."
"Silverpaw, under the watchful eyes of the stars, I now give you your warrior name of Silvershine. I welcome you as a full warrior of MidnightClan. May StarClan guide and protect you for many moons to come, until you retire to the elders' den."
"Blazepaw, under the watchful eyes of the stars, I now give you your warrior name of Blazestorm. I welcome you as a full warrior of MidnightClan. May StarClan guide and protect you for many moons to come, until you retire to the elders' den."
"Now, Thrushkit, Brindlekit, Barkkit, and Brightpaw, please step forward."
"Thrushkit, you have come of the age of six moons and are now ready to begin your journey walking the path of a warrior, according to the laws laid down by our ancestors moons ago. Barkflame, even though you are still a new warrior, I believe that you will be able to lead and train your new apprentice Thrushpaw well."
"Brindlekit, you have come of the age of six moons and are now ready to begin your journey walking the path of a warrior, according to the laws laid down by our ancestors moons ago. Featherfoot is an experienced warrior, and I believe that he will be able to lead and train you well under your new name Brindlepaw."
"Barkkit, you have come of the age of six moons and are now ready to begin your journey walking the path of a warrior, according to the laws laid down by our ancestors moons ago. Honeylight, even though you are still a new warrior, I believe that you will be able to lead and train your new apprentice Barkpaw well."
"As for you, Brightpaw, due to your current mentor's...disappearance, it is time to give you a new mentor to continue your training as a MidnightClan warrior. Flintshade is an experienced warrior, and I trust that he will be able to expand and help you improve on what Sagebreeze has already taught and finish your training."
Before the cheers started up, Bramblestar gave a respectful dip of his head to the new warriors, apprentices, and mentors, and managed to add in, a little more enthusiastically, "Congratulations to all," before retreating back into his den.
If any of your MidnightClanners died in the battle, please PM me with their name(s) so that they can be added to the vigil.
