Rock Shelter

At the back edge of RiverClan territory, a huge rock rises like a sentinel out of the ground. It curves outwards, creating an overhang of sorts, and vines hang over it, creating a kind of curtain. This rock is also surrounded by reeds, and once one slips into the space made between vine and rock, you find a comfortable, surprisingly spacious hollow carpeted with moss and mushrooms. A hole in the rock above allows a small view of the sky, and at night a single star twinkles there. This place has a peaceful feeling to it, rather like the moonstone cave. In fact, some medicine cats and leaders of RiverClan claim to have had very vivid dreams of StarClan here. It is usually used by RiverClan cats as a retreat, a place for meditation and reflection. When they feel stressed, angry, or just need an escape, they come to the Rock-Shelter. The soothing gurgling of the river is audible in the distance, and the chirping of birds give it both an ordinary and a magical feel. The space is large enough to hold several cats, though there is an unspoken rule that if multiple cats share the space, they will not speak with each other.
