Prologue

The pale gray cat made his way up the grassy hill, the sound if waves crashing in the distance. At the top, he stood, unmoving and looked up at the stars. Suddenly the sky seemed to peel away from itself, and the stars fell to earth, arranging themselves in the shapes of cats. The starcats stood on the hill, facing the cloud colored tom.

"StarClan, why have you brought me here? Is the Clan in trouble?" the tom asked, his rough voice breaking the cool silence. His blue eyes stretchex wide as he waited for a reply. Finally, a dark brown tom with a light belly stepped forward.

"Reedfoot, you have served WindClan long and well. I am Onestar. I led this Clan in a new land where no cat was at home. Yoour Clan may face the same, unless destiny prevents it. To that end, I give you these words.

Darkness will burn through the moorgrass

Stars may be covered by smoke

Death may rule all unless, perhaps

The firebird flys on the wind with hope."

The brown tabby started to fade, and the gray tom leaped up.

"Wait! What darkness? When? Who can I tell?". Reedfoot looked at the sky in despair. StarClan had gone.
