[fancypost borderwidth=0px][justify]Egretstar hadn't been around as much as she had wanted to be. Particularly during the clan's current condition, though she'd been working on foreign affairs that would hopefully aid them. RadicalClan was still close, it seemed as though the Blackheart Rogues were going to be dropped as allies in the near future and there had been a pro-clan gathering. If ShadowClan were going to persist with the fighting, they'd have quite a few groups against them at this point. Still, HawkClan couldn't just count on allies alone. They'd have to strengthen themselves, which seemed more important than it had done in the past. Activity had slipped, particularly with the high positions. It also seemed as though the member count had decreased. Something that would have to be worked on as a top priority.
"HawkClan!"
There was no point in adding anything else to her introduction to the meeting. A single word demanded just as much attention as a sentence. Throat still sore, it also made sense to make things as straight forward as possible for herself. "First of all, activity. I want you guys to try and pick up on things, all of you. Myself included." It wasn't that she hadn't had any reasoning behind her drop in activity, but it was still not enough of an excuse. Leaders had to be easily accessible, Egretstar was aware of this. "High positions, I definitely need you guys to pick it up. Talk to me if you have any questions as well, or jus' need somethin'."
"Twilighttown, yer demoted*. Quickfire, yer on probation. I'm sorry, but as a deputy I need ya around more." It felt bad to put such a long time member on probation, but there was no point in letting the deputy off lightly. HawkClan needed active high positions, as did any group. "I need someone ta hold a patrol for all of the high positions that have gone missing lately." (*in regards to this thread) Yes, Egretstar had said in the past that she would be holding these patrols. Now, it seemed like a bad idea to lead said patrols. Someone else would likely be much better at leading them whilst the avian was ill, though it wasn't as though Egretstar wouldn't be joining them.
Pausing to allow members to listen to what had been said, Egretstar would choose to separate the meeting into multiple sections. Needing a break to try and recollect her thoughts, whilst also attempting to make herself more comfortable. It seemed somewhat clear that the vulture didn't feel her best, though she was doing what she could to avoid thinking about the subject. Not that this was simple.
