Brackenclan’s Deerstar and Dipsy came across a dead, rotting raven in Lichen Grove. This was Bracken’s omen.
Honeyhaze of Ridgeclan and Darkswan of Breezeclan each received their own ominous omen, signalling trials ahead.
Honeyhaze, Spiderbite, and Littlebristle encountered a cougar while investigating post-landslide damage at Star Cavern. All returned alive, but not unscathed. Falconwing and Badgermask encountered an infected fox while investigating post-landslide damage at Hushed Pines—both escaped without getting infected.
Shadowstep of Breezeclan, infected, turned on his apprentice Fishpaw and attacked him mindlessly. This marks the first known instance of infected cats turning aggressive. Both were killed.
Loss of BreezeClan Leader
Breezeclan’s leader, Sparrowstar, died from the sickness, losing all of his nine lives in succession from the disease.
Infection Within MistClan
Mistclan’s encounter with an infected raccoon within Brackenclan territory; they survived, but Rotstar and Pigeoncry came out of the fight infected.
Rotstar died from the sickness, losing all of her remaining seven lives in succession.
After sheltering post-landslide, Ridgeclan returned home, leaving the Gathering Place behind.
Wispbreath received an omen, a whispered promise of salvation located far North of the valley.
MistClan Deputy Willowstorm travelled to Starfall for her leader ceremony. She received her nine lives and became Willowstar.
Violent Infected and Morals of RidgeClan
Three of Ridgeclan’s sick turned violent: Mudmask, Larkview, and Nettleheart. This was Ridgeclan’s first exposure to the disease that turns cats. This caused disagreements among Redstar, Honeyhaze, and senior warriors over how to move forward. Ridgeclan begins to wonder if killing their warriors who are sick is mercy; others believe they shouldn’t be killed.
Breezeclan has one infected warrior, Heatherwind, who turned violent and attacked her mate, Cedarfall. Heatherwind was restrained by Snakethroat and Stormbreak, before infecting Snakethroat. Heatherwind was killed by Snakethroat following Cypresslark's order.
Wispbreath arrived at Breezeclan to speak to Cypresslark about her prophecy and ask for Breezeclan cats to join her journey North.
Brackenclan’s Tawnydawn and Forestchirp encountered an infected coyote in the territory; they survived, but became infected.
Infection is introduced into Brackenclan with 20+ cats contracting the sickness.
Wispbreath in BrackenClan
Wispbreath arrived at Brackenclan to speak to Deerstar about her prophecy and ask for Brackenclan cats to join her journey North.
Brackenclan’s Dipsy and Twilightsilk encountered an aggressive Black Bear. Dipsy successfully fled while Twilightsilk was killed.
Wispbreath arrived at Mistclan to speak to Willowstar about her prophecy and ask for Mistclan cats to join her journey North.
BreezeClan’s Next Leader & The Loss of StarClan
Breezeclan Deputy Cypresslark traveled for his leader ceremony. He received his name and lives, but the quake drained Starfall’s sacred waters, severing contact with StarClan and their guidance.
Destruction of the First Tree
The Ancient Tree split in half during the quake, and the valley is now left without its Guardian.
Darkness and frost blanket the Clans; Brackenclan’s sacred ravens have left their perches, and Ridgeclan’s eagles have fallen silent.
