Shortly after speaking with Mossbloom regarding her retirement, Nettlestar made her way to the Highrock.

She could feel unfamiliar, unwelcome eyes following her as she made her way to her normal spot. She was used to having the gaze of the entire clan on her when she conducted ceremonies or made announcements, but this was the first time she really felt like she was being watched.

She scaled the rock, trying not to think too much about the sensation.

"Cats of ThunderClan!" the gray tabby called, very deliberately changing the words she used to summon the clan together, "Please gather beneath the Highrock,"

It hadn't been long since her chat with Daisybloom and Nettlestar, and though the rock in her throat was still present Mossbloom knew in her heart that she was doing the right thing. It hurt, stars it hurt, especially as she had waited patiently in the medicine cat den staring at the nest she had kept for so many moons. Soon it would by Daisybloom's spot, and later her apprentice. It was then that she heard the call from Nettlestar, and with a final sweeping look around the den, taking in the comforting scent of herbs and moss, she stepped out through the ferns to join the quickly gathering crowd.

"Mossbloom, is it your wish to give up the rank of a warrior and go to join the elders?"

Having only recently spoken to the she-cat, Nettlestar knew with certainty what her answer would be. Still, as always, ceremony required she ask here and now to formalize Mossbloom's change in status. There was something comforting in the predictability of the words of a ceremony like this, especially with the how unpredictable the rest of life felt.

Mossbloom had remained standing, as she was almost certain of what Nettlestar had to say, sure enough, it was confirmed when Nettlestar spoke her name. Mossbloom's mouth opened, but it was then that she hesitated one last time. Was this really what she wanted? The answer was no, of course she wanted to remain in the medicine den, she wanted to journey to the Moonstone with the next generations of apprentices, she wanted to greet the other medicine cats at the half moon, but... She couldn't. Her paws shook, and even now she could feel the aching in her hips and hind legs, aches that had plagued her the last few moons, that had been inflamed by the long journeys. Her green eyes turned up to Nettlestar and she nodded, not trusting her own voice for a moment. Tears threatened the corners of her eyes and she finally manage to croak out a solemn, grief-filled response. "It is time." There, she had not lied, as it was not her wish to retire, but it was time for her to leave the herbs and clan she had carefully tended to almost her entire life in the capable paws of Daisybloom.

Nettlestar bowed her head in respect to the medicine cat, who truly had done so much for the clan. The gray she-cat met Mossbloom's gaze.

"ThunderClan honors you and all the service you have given us. I..."

The green-eyed leader paused for a moment. Normally, the final words of the ceremony would be to call on StarClan to give the retiring cat moons of rest. But considering the situation they were all in, would there be any "rest" to be found?

"Perhaps given current circumstances this may ring a bit hollow, but truly, I do hope StarClan will give you many moons of rest," she said finally, giving the elder another nod of respect and acknowledgement. Hopefully someday she would get the peace she deserved-- and they would all be free again.

Not too long after Daisybloom had spoken with her mentor, Nettlestar had headed over to call a clan meeting. She was almost positive thus was Mossbloom’s elder ceremony, so she made sure to settle in quickly. Her blue eyes were swirling with emotion. She was nervous. She didn’t feel ready to take over as the sole medicine cat. But how could she deny the older she-cat her rest? She had served for moons, trained countless apprentices, even just in part. The calico had helped shaped the forest, shaped the clans. And now it was her time to retire.

Still, the tabby wished this could’ve happened in a better time. Without the Asylum takeover. They were cut off from Starclan in nearly every way, how could she expect to train an apprentice like this? Pushing the thoughts to the back of her mind as the ceremony ended. She smiled at Mossbloom, blinking back a few tears. It was truly a bittersweet moment. Their exchange earlier had already given all the words she had needed to say. Perhaps, one day, they would be free again. She prayed that the elder would get to live to see that.
