WHAT A PRIVILEGE IT IS TO LOVE — The idea had occured to Jacob when he'd been wandering around in the tunnels. He'd come to a section with ancient paintings spread across them of all sorts of different events and creatures. It occurred to him it'd be nice for Snowbound to make notes of it's own history so he'd gone out of his way to gather some paint. Now that he had enough of it, he was setting it all out in front of a blank wall in the main entrance to the tunnels. There was plenty of light and space here so he supposed it'd be a nice place. Besides, all their visitors would be able to see a visual representation of their history which would be interesting to share with the many creatures he anticipated would come in and out of these caves. There were endless possibilities for what could be painted on these walls, much like how there were endless possibilities for Snowbound and the new groups that surrounded it. So, Jacob determined that he'd make this a nice little event every month to celebrate their accomplishments and learn from their mistakes.
When the paint was all set out, he waited for a few members to gather. He'd given out notice that they were to meet around this time in this particular place. When it seemed there were plenty of members gathered, he began to speak, "Thank ya' all for comin' down 'ere. So I decided that we're gonna' start a new tradition the first week ah' every month. These different paints represent different ranks n' different accomplishments. Every month, I want ya' ta' dip your paws or claws or whatever ya' may 'ave n' put it on this wall. When we 'ave real important events, we'll also put up some representations ah' those but we're gonna' keep it simple this time. Once you're done, feel free ta' either stay n' relax for a bit ta' chat or head back ta' camp. I've got some hot coco out n' ya' can stay n' talk if ya' would like to," he explained. He then paused a moment before continuing, "If ya' wanna take a note of your time 'ere or your rank, each ah' the different colors represent somethin' different. Dark blue is meant for a Chief, light blue's for a Snowseeker, white shows you're a Frosthealer, orange is for a Snowstriker, green for Tenderfoots, yellow for Lionhearts, n' black for any new members. If ya' wanna' put a representation of events that ya' thought were important, feel free ta' make those too but make sure ya' keep it... ya' know, keep it appropriate for kids n' all that since it's so close ta' the entrance." —A GREAT HONOR TO HOLD YOU UP
