Hours later that day **EmberSnap** tells her daughter who's carrying an herb bag that she's worried about her. She tells WitherRunner that she's been collecting herbs all day by herself and is awake most of the nights. WitherRunner agrees with her mother admitting that she hasn't been taking care of herself in weeks but winter is coming and she's the only medicine fox so it's her job to help the tribe. **EmberSnap** asks her daughter what good will she be if she dies before winter and asks her to try and
sleep. When **EmberSnap** sees her daughter distraught she tells her that they are all scared about the upcoming winter
saying that despite being the only medicine fox and not having an apprentice she doesn't have to do everything all by herself as she always has them.

Hours later at nighttime she continues to wait with her mate HookChomp besides her. When she's anxious he assures her that their daughter won't give up on SunStrider without making sure he's stable. As she cuddles with HookChomp she then notices WitherRunner coming out of the med den and frantically asks coddles her WitherRunner tells everyone that SunStrider is alive and stable making everyone cheer for joy. WitherRunner tells them sadly he's not out of danger just yet and tells them they'll have to watch him tonight and asks for two others to help her take shifts. **EmberSnap** and RedHeart approach offering to help her. **EmberSnap** goes to the
