Tall Pine stepped out of his den, his green eyes sunken yet sparkling. A few cats milled around camp, looking lost. He took a deep breath, his tail twitching. There was nothing like a speech to keep morale up.
"Tribe cats!" He yowled, leaping into the branches of the Talltree with an air of confidence.

Oak Dusk's ears flicked when he heard Tall Pine's voice through the camp. He got up from his spot and walked to the Talltree. He took a seat below and waited for the other cats to settle down.

Birch Dapple stayed where she was at. She could easily hear what Tall Pine said so there was no need to move. The multi-colored she-cat looked up curiously but focused.

Cinder Mist walked to the Talltree and made herself comfortable. She wanted to hear what the leader wanted to say. ××××××××××××××× Blossom Storm made it to the meeting tree. She was a bit tired but the she-cat kept herself awake so she could focus on what Tall Pine wanted them all to hear.

Ember's light sat next to Oak Dusk and greeted him kindly. She then looked around for Oak Leaf to join her.

Shadow Feather made her way over to the gathering cats, looking up at Tall Pine. The young cat was still struggling to adjust to the recent changes, but was doing her best to take it all in stride.

The red-furred tom arrived at the meeting place, meeting Ember Light's gaze. With a happy look, all the concerns of the tom about the future of the Tribe seemed to disappear as he trotted to the love of his life. Giving her a lovingly nuzzle, he sat down next to her, greeting Oak Dusk with a quick and energetic nod.

Fallen Shadow padded over and sat next to Shadow Feather.
OOC: should I make the thread after?

Tall Pine leapt up the side of the Tall Tree gracefully, climbing into one of it's branches and resting on his haunches, his hazel eyes turned towards the cats below him. He took a deep breath as his claws gripped the branch tightly. "Friends!" His voice echoed through the trees. One of Tall Pine's greatest talents was the power of speech. His words were as persuading as hunger and as powerful as the Star Cats above. “The path we have chosen is full of danger."
He could feel his heart beating in his chest as memories of the past days ran through his mind, but he pushed them back. "The path we have chosen is full of danger, as all paths are. But it is the one most consistent with our character and courage as a Tribe. The cost of prosperity, protection and strength is always high, but have we not always paid it?
There is one path that the Tribe Of Growing Pines will never choose; the path of surrender or submission. Our goal is not to take all, but to survive and thrive in our new home; not peace at the expense of others, but both peace and safety, here in this land, and, we hope, throughout all tribes. Star Cats willing, that goal will be achieved.”
He paused for a moment and watched the cats below him, holding the Tribe's silence for one, two, three breaths. "We are the ones. We are the ones who will turn from our primitive, savage ways and look for a higher way of living. We are the ones who will turn this forest into something much, much more. We will turn this land into a home for generations to come, a place where our kits and our grandkits and their grandkits will live and prosper. We will move past this, and continue to grow and change. We are the Tribe Of Growing Pines, and we will do what it takes to survive." He fell silent once more, his eyes ever watchful on his Tribe. Now it was time to see their reactions. Were they against him? With him? And most importantly, who would break the silence?

Fallen Shadow broke out yowling his approval.
