Kit was feeling claustrophobic. Less than six hours in the cat mutant's palace and she was ready to go. Although she was used to shelters where her clan would reside, she never stayed home long. Her place was the open spaces of the plains. She liked to be able to see for miles across the flat landscape, with only the great snow white mountains to break up the horizon. The four walls and door of the room where she was escorted to the night before were not to her liking. The bed, which was up off of the floor at least two feet, was impressive but too soft and Kit had not slept. Trying to keep herself distracted, she walked around the room and looked at the pictures hung on the walls. They gave her pause as she examined them. The images were faded but apparently scenes of men and women lounging around drinking and eating. Not particularly realistic in Kit's mind but most of the magazine pictures Kit ran across on her travels were that way too. In the end, Kit explored every inch of the room and found nothing really worth taking. Only the candle and its holder left for her on the nightstand beside the bed ended up in her pocket.

With a sigh of boredom, Kit decided it was time to sneak out of the room and do some exploring. She contemplated trying to find Raven and asking her if she wanted to leave, but somehow thought the woman would not be ready yet. Just as well, Kit thought. Raven was significant and unique, but she was horrible at moving silently. Quietly, Kit opened the door to her room and looked up and down the short hallway. Surprised no one was left to guard her, she slipped out and crept to the first corner. Darting a quick peek to see what was beyond, she saw a small room with an active fireplace. It appeared unoccupied otherwise, and Kit did not hesitate as she moved inside it. More tapestries hung from floor to ceiling and some ornate chairs, plus a table took up half the room as they sat near the hearth. Exploring, Kit walked along the wall, taking in the images of cat mutants and different adventures woven into the fabrics used for both decorations and to help keep the space warmer. As she stood studying on an elaborate scene, the tapestry rippled a bit. Kit froze. There was no breeze which she could feel. Again, the thick fabric seemed to sway and now more curious than ever, Kit looked behind the curtain. Pulling it slightly from the wall, her eyes widened when she saw there was an opening. A secret passage! Kit thought with excitement. The hole was dark, and there was no way to know if it led anywhere, but Kit could not let the opportunity to explore pass her by. Moving quickly to the fireplace to light the candle she carried, she took one last look from side-to-side as she crossed back to the wall.
