Prologue,
Willowshine shivered as the cool breeze ruffled her gray tabby fur. She was standing in an empty field. There was not even any mist surrounding her like most dreams she had. The medicine cat's spine prickled with suspicion at the dead silence.
Appearing out of nowhere, a gray tom began to stride up to her. Willowshine stood as stiff as a branch, her eyes wide. Who is he? she thought, trying hard to keep from trembling. "I am Stonefur," the tom meowed, as if reading her thoughts. Willowshine gasped. "Mistystar's brother? I've heard stories of you!" She dipped her head respectfully. "It is a great honor to meet you
Stonefur touched his nose to her forehead. "Lift your head, young one. There is something I must tell you." She did as she was told, eyeing his battle-scarred ears. "What is it, Stonefur?" The StarClan warrior sat down, tucking his tail neatly over his paws.
He bowed his head in distress. Abruptly, his head snapped back up, and looked her in the eye. "Darkness shall descend upon the Clans once again. But Silence will conquer the evil."
Willowshine tilted her head in confusion. "Silence? But silence is a bad thing! Isn't it...?" Stonefur stood up, shaking his head. "No." Willowshine was about to ask what he meant when the world around her began to fade.
As she woke, the soft voice of Stonefur wisped through her mind. "Silence is golden."
