Reflections is a dark fantasy series following the life of Nettle, a kit who dreams of becoming a great leader like both her mothers. But as cats start to go missing, Nettle finds out a dark secret that could change her heart, and the rest of the Colony forever...
She/They
Nettle is a young cat, determined to make her mark within the Colony. She dreams of leading the Storm Watch, just like her mother Flight before her passing. With such large pawsteps to follow in, Nettle often feels the need to impress her other mother and Dusk Watch leader, Ripple, as well as the other Watch leaders. However, she isn’t the most patient cat, and struggles to keep her cool underpressure. Her flowers are Peach Oleanders.
She/Her
Drizzle is a cool and calm Colony cat. Though unsure of where her path might lead, she's happy enough to go with the flow. But don't mistake her attitude to life as laziness, as she is far from that. She is very loyal to her friends, family, and The Colony. Her flowers are Sunflowers.
They/Them
Spark is an athletic and ambitious sam. They want nothing more than to be a Dawn Watcher, and love the idea of racing around the tree tops, hunting and scouting. They always seem to see the good in others, and are considered a polar opposite to their sister Nettle. Their flowers are Chamomile.
She/They
Bumble Bee is a small, short tailed fluffy molly. They are close with their whole family, especially their littermate Apple. Selfless and caring, Bee wants to be a healer for the colony. She is very passionate about her interests, and although usually timid, will ramble on about herbs and flowers all day long. Her flowers are White Double Daffodils.
He/Him
Apple is the twin brother of Bee. He is an excitable and bouncy kit who wants to become a keeper. He is friendly and trusting, and probably a little too gullible for his own good. His flowers are Apple Blossoms.
Far away from the reaches of modern humanity, the Valley of Whispers is a rural pass where the Colony resides, marked by its variety of woodlands. From glens to wetlands, this pass is home to a diverse amount of flora and fauna.At its heart resides an overgrown castle, decrepit and ancient. Located on an island within the lake, the Colony has established their way of living here, bringing life to the old ruins. The Watches themselves reside in the castle, whilst the rest of the colony inhabits the island around them.The Valley is named by the sighting of Whispers-- the souls of cats who have passed on from their lifetime. While it is rare to spot one in their true form, most interpret their arrival from a gentle breeze picking up, where there was once none.
Once of age, young kits travel to The Garden in the Valley of Whispers. Here, many plants grow and thrive in the shadow of the ruins of an old greenhouse, and kits are encouraged to pick a flower or plant they feel a deep connection to.Once chosen, this plant will be carried with the cat for their entire lives. Once they have passed on, they are buried with their flower, and many believe they carry their flower with them as Whispers as well.When a cat passes, their flower is added to The Family Tree, which resides in the castle's central courtyard. It is intricately decorated with flowers since the founders' of the Colony, and it is a living reminder of the Colony's history and those who have lived in it.
