History
In the dead of the cold season (for Soothing Skies was never quite so soothing for cats who made their homes at the top of a mountain), a scout who had wanted nothing more than to become a consort sat silently as the tom by whom she had become pregnant fussed over the kits she had never wanted. Starling's Call and Pine Smoke had a deal -- these kits would never be known as hers. 

He had been more than happy to agree. Their coupling had been a mistake, but he would never have dared share the same designation with his younglings.

Starling's Call told him that they were too small to survive, and then she stood up and returned to her nest, leaving Pine Smoke to take the three kittens to the matriarch who had already agreed to raise them. Her name had been Howling Wind, and she was without a doubt Pine Smoke's best friend. Her own offspring were of a similar age, and the hope was that nobody would question the appearance of the kits so that Starling's Call could continue her expected path.

Of course, rarely do our plans work out so well.

Little Jay did not survive the night, and the mourning seeped into every aspect of Pine Smoke's life. The skies had become duller and the seasons did not seem to change, but the kittens he called his own grew in great strides. Pine Smoke was not absentee, and his young always knew the warm embrace of their father, but they also knew that the she-cat who stared coldly at them from the common spaces had stake in their development as well.

Matters were not helped when the Shaman discovered that Pale Flower could not hear at all -- a side effect of being a white cat born with such clear blue eyes. Not that Hovering Fog ever minded. She had been communicating with her sister since they were born, and this certainly did not change things.

It was Hovering Fog who figured out that Starling's Call was their mother, long before her sister did. Still, that was not much of a surprise to either sister.
