Early Life
Kit
When Gale was young, she was seperated from her littermate Silver early on. She has almost no memory of him, but she know the story her parents tell of it. At the time her father was heavily wounded and her mother had to seek out help. Unfortunately she could only carry one kit with her and once she got help for her mate she returned to where she had hidden Silver, only for him to be nowhere to be found. Much of her early kithood was spent in the company of only her mother since her father was out searching for Silver more often than not. She was always upset when he left, but never held it against him.
Young Life
Young adult
Most of her life as a young adult was spent like it was when she was a kit, though now that she was older they moved often. During one of his trips he came back with an injured leg and was confined to their home. Gale was ecstatic that he had to stay with them for a while, until she overheard her parents talking later that night. Her father was constantly searching to atone for what he believed to be his fault- if he had been more careful and hadn't gotten injured, they never would have had to leave their kit behind. Later, she proposed the idea that she go out instead to search. Her parents were very reluctant at the idea, but did eventually let her go. She spent weeks searching, and wasn't sure she even believed he was alive until she stumbled upon him inside a claimed territory. He was skeptical as she excitedly explained who she was and tried to convince him to come back home with her, but before she could convince him another- very furious- cat appeared. Based on the way her brother reacted to his presence Gale deemed him a threat and attacked. She only gave up her fight when more cats appeared. At some point in the chaos, Silver bolted and was nowhere to be found. Thus, her search started over.
Adult Life

After returning home and reporting what she learned, her whole family became nomadic, never staying in one place for more than a couple of days and searching together as a group.
