Siblings Deer and Hare have always been close, but the two have never really belonged anywhere, never had a place to call their home. And, when Hare learned she was pregnant, the two decided it was time to move on and find somewhere a bit safer than their current twolegplace for her to have her litter. The siblings arrive in the territory searching for a safe place for Hare to have her kits, but the two struggle to establish a den and adjust to the fraught relationships between the cats of the area. 

Elsewhere in the territory, Jaybird begs her brother Lakeshore to stay with her and help her care for their aging father Crane and her young son Spiderweb. Jaybird’s previous kits had all died before their first seasonal cycle, and her pleading convinces Lakeshore to stay, if only for a little while, despite his desire to wander and see the world.
