Sun Mote Copse The power of love of power.

She probably should have done this ages ago—not just to locate @Tegan but also to visit for the sake of it. Towhee hadn't spoken to @Niamh since her departure and she knew Wildfire and @Eljay had recently welcomed a litter. Plus, she wouldn't mind seeing @Finley, @Elwood or any of the gang, really. She still hated that they lived here and not with her at the plateau, though time had done its job to dull her negative emotions about it all.

When she approached the copse's edge, she stopped and deliberated the merits of howling or simply waiting patiently. In the end, she decided it wasn't urgent enough to summon anyone directly. Towhee folded her haunches and waited for someone to happen across her. While she waited, she reached up a hind leg to rub at an itchy spot behind one of her ears, then proceeded to nibble at her toenails.
