The Elders' Quest/Chapter 10

==Chapter description==
:As Birchfeather says his farewells to ShadowClan, Tawnypelt fetches Tigerstar and Dovewing from the leader's den, scolding them for hiding instead of saying goodbye to their son. Tawnypelt criticizes that she did not know Birchfeather was originally intending to leave ShadowClan, reminding Tigerstar how he also fell in love with a cat outside his own Clan. Tigerstar and Dovewing briskly wish their son good luck on his trials, and Tawnypelt walks Birchfeather to the border. While Birchfeather is upset that his parents were so formal with him, Tawnypelt reminds him of the importance of finding his own happiness, something only his heart can tell him. Birchfeather thanks her for everything, and the two bid farewell at the border.
:The next day, Tawnypelt meets back up with Owlnose, Crowfeather, and Bayshine. Instead of Leafstar, Palesky arrives and offers no explanation for her leader's absence. They first trek to the Moonpool, though the younger cats complain about the purpose of their mission. Crowfeather reminds them of the Great Journey, though Owlnose insists they will not have to move ever again. Tawnypelt hopes he is right. At the Moonpool, the patrol discovers the brightly colored smears on the stone and and odd stones covered in brownish-gray pelts filled with powder. Crowfeather and Tawnypelt are worried about the strong Twoleg presence at the Moonpool, wondering what the Twolegs might have planned for their sacred site. However, the other cats are unconvinced.
:They head towards the Twoleg building site. Realizing nothing much as changed, Owlnose, Bayshine, and Palesky return to their own camps, though Tawnypelt and Crowfeather decide to investigate further. As they approach the big blue wall, a huge dog chases them, causing the warriors to climb the half-built Twoleg nest. After escaping further up the structure, the two warriors laugh in delight. Crowfeather compliments Tawnypelt's bravery. To her surprise, Tawnypelt begins to feel something for the WindClan deputy, though she pushes those thoughts to the side. Crowfeather points out heaps of Twoleg trash choking the stream, concluding it must be the source of the tainted stream. However, Tawnypelt wonders what else the Twolegs might be capable of.
