Relief flooded through Rhinestone as he watched Stormspine's actions, even though he knew full well that there was little chance of the beast truly getting hurt. The most the fox could've done is injured the other's eyes or more vulnerable areas – which was exactly what it had attempted to do – but the warrior had shut it down handily. Despite this, the leader still felt a knot of worry in his chest as he moved over to where Stormspine was standing, feeling incredibly tiny next to the male as he looked upwards, "Stormspine, are you alright? It seemed like you had it handled, but... if you have any injuries, I don't want you hiding them." Thankfully, it seemed as though the leader's warning had been enough to save Stormspine from any potential sight-loss, something that would have been detrimental to the entire clan. After all, you didn't want a massive prehistoric reptile stumbling around in a half blind state. Not when your camp was so incredibly vulnerable – or in general, really.

After questioning Stormspine about his physical state, Rhinestone turned his pale gaze towards the tree line, watching the forest carefully. He could still see the retreating forms of the foxes, and he found himself shaking his head before he mumbled, "I'll need to send more patrols along the forest border... just to make sure that this doesn't happen again." They were lucky that Storm had been here today, but the warrior couldn't constantly remain within camp.
