| It was difficult to summon the joy that was supposedly synonymous with Warrior Ceremonies. The pressing weight of the strange RiverClan tom's words, coupled with the mounting threat of the ever-strained tensions with RiverClan and the recent passing of one of her youngest sons left Brindlestar utterly exhausted. More often than not, the only companion she could rely upon during these days was the impending pulsations of a vengeful migraine. And yet, she simply pushed herself up from the grandeur-lacking sprawled position she had relaxed into atop the Great Rock and merely rose up to her full height. Imminent destruction upon the horizon or not, a new Warrior was a reason to celebrate. To know that she was able to see a young cat find their true place within the Clan was undoubtedly a comfort to her.

| Hearing Brindlestar's call, Rockpaw trotted over to the base of the Tallrock, where he sat down. Was today the day that he got his warrior name? 'Hopefully so...' he thought to himself, keeping his curious gaze upon the leader. |

| "We gather here today to bestow the title of Warrior upon one of our Apprentices." Brindlestar began once more, only pausing for the briefest inhale. It was quite the uphill struggle to improve her mood, but she was determined to not linger sourly. Reluctantly casting her gaze down towards the familiar features of her Clanmates, the scarred molly's gaze fell upon the wide-eyed, hopeful young tom. Clearly this ceremony wouldn't come as too much of a surprise. "He has proven himself worthy to climb the ranks of WindClan and receive his Warrior name." Phosphorescent eyes glinting with a strange light that gleamed much too brightly amongst the rapidly encroaching darkness, the pale-furred molly paused a moment or so before eventually speaking.

| OOC: oof sorry for short/crapness
IC: Listening to the leader speak, at the call of his name, Rockpaw stepped forward, his pelt tingling with excitement. It was finally time, after what felt like ages. |

| "I, Brindlestar, Leader of WindClan, call upon my Warrior ancestors to look down upon this Apprentice. He has trained hard to understand the ways of your noble Code, and I commend him to you as a Warrior in return." Although Brindlestar did not slow down her spiel to catch a glimpse of the young tom, her thoughts couldn't help but stray slightly. As of late, it had become difficult for her to understand whether or not young cats actually understood the weight of what she was asking. Did any Apprentice ever understand what they were devoting their lifetime to? Teeth begrudgingly grating together with enough force to break bone, the scarred Leader unhappily stifled the unwelcome intrusion- this was a celebration of all of Rockpaw's hard work and dedication, nothing more. It wasn't fair for her to brood over something that cynical during one of the proudest moments of a young cat's life thus far.

| "I do," Rockpaw mewed strongly, puffing out his chest fur and sitting up a little straighter than before. |

| Phosphorescent gaze unreadable in the smokey light of dusk, Brindlestar's only immediate reaction to Rockpaw's confirmation was the slightest twitch of her ear. "Then by the powers of StarClan, I shall grant you your Warrior name." Casting her sharp gaze back out towards the darkening sky, which bled with the richest colors that many saw during this lifetime, the glimmers of starlight seemed to look down upon the proceedings in response. "Rockpaw, from this moment on, you will be known as Rockjaw. StarClan honors your unyielding courage and loyalty, and we welcome you as a full Warrior of WindClan." Rough paws hardly making a sound against the smooth surface of the Tallrock, the pale-furred molly was quick to abandon the ceremonial seat and instead plunged down into the awaiting celebration that congregated around the newly-named Warrior.

| Listening as his warrior name was announced, the newly named warrior soaked in the cheering of his now given warriorhood. So this is what becoming a warrior felt like... it was truly wonderful, not being a meer apprentice anymore. Now he could really help Lichenmask and the others... |

| "Congratulations!" Thornleap was quick to congratulate Rockjaw. He, Lichenmask, and the others might see eye to eye, but his clanmates were more important. If, after all this, he was going to prove that Windclan was superior, he wouldn't be able to do it alone. ______________________________________ |
