"When the young black birds call, And the fire waters fall, Your allies will turn against you, And the waves of demise will rise. Follow the birds to the ancient land; Where the sands of the past don't live; And look up to where the bird will stand, Or the heroes of young won't forgive." --- The cats of ShoreClan, inhabiting the islands off the coast, have survived on their own for generations, all tales which had once been passed down to the kits, now forgotten among the modern cats. However, when a prophecy demands a summons from the most inexperienced of the Clan, a group of ShoreClan depend on their compatibility. But the tides are rising fast. And the rains are stronger. Time is ticking. And soon, the leap to survival may be too wide to cross.
