Swiftcurrent Creek hell is as full as the devil's ego

'scuse the crappy post — I know we want to wrap Swiftcurrent threads up!

Even though Falwasi trusted her Beta wholly, and she was inclined to trust her word, a part of her mind still thought that Star might have left on her own accord. Her random departure seemed more easily accepted, though. Even if she wanted to leave, she would've mentioned something to someone.

But the news of Galileo's departure shocked her even more. As far as she was concerned, the peppered man had been a part of the Creek for as long as Fox's reign — before that, Falwasi did not know. However she knew that if he'd left, it had been for a good reason.

"Everyone's leaving," she breathed, disbelieving her own statement. It was a strange feeling; one day she'd be hunting or catching up with her peers and the next she would be wondering if they'd ever return.
