== Story ==
-
Lilykit, Snowkit, and Frostkit were born in OasisClan. They were kits for six moons.
Then they became apprentices and were apprentices for another moon. But then their parents died. They were all sad in OasisClan after that, so Lilypaw, Frostpaw, and Snowpaw left and joined HorizonClan instead. They lived there for the rest of their apprenticeship. There, Lilypaw became close friends with the young Aspenpaw, who had just recently lost his brother and father, and was struggling with the grief. She helped him as much as she could, and they were able to bond over their losses. She ended up getting a lil bit of a crush on him, but she kept it to herself, because she knew Aspenpaw wasn’t looking for that sort of thing. She also managed to sort of befriend Aspenpaw's sister, Crowpaw, although she mainly just spent time with Aspenpaw and her siblings. The rest of their training was pretty chill.
By the time they were both warriors, Aspensting was starting to return her feelings, although he was very hesitant about it. She encouraged him to let them take it further, and they eventually started ‘dating’. Unfortunately, Snowbreeze had returned to OasisClan a few moons prior to be back with her new mate, Blackbite, and Frostroot disapproved of Lilyspring’s relationship with Aspensting. They started getting into a many disagreements about it, and it was finally Lilyspring who demanded that Frostroot leave the Clan if he didn’t like it. He did so, albeit angrily, and joined Snowbreeze in OasisClan. Lilyspring was sort of torn up about this, but she decided it was worth it - she got to be mates with Aspensting, after all.
They lived for a while longer. After the death of Aspensting’s apprentice, Irispaw, she proposed that they try having kits of their own. He didn’t want to at first, fearing that something would go wrong and he wouldn’t be a proper father, but Lilyspring managed to persuade him to give it a try. She got pregnant. and she and Aspensting were pretty delighted, and they would stay up all night thinking up name ideas and stuff. It was cute. But - unfortunately - when she was two moons pregnant, a greencough epidemic swept through the Clans. Lilyspring got sick. Like, super sick. It was bad. When she finally gave birth to her kits, she was too weak, and she died from the strain. Her two sons, Smokekit and Weaselkit, got stuck midway through their birth, and in the end, neither of them made it. Aspensting named them anyways, though, for Weaselkit and Smokekit had been Lilyspring’s favorite tom names. The two she-kits, though - Featherkit and Dapplekit - survived. When Aspenstar received his nine lives, she gave him his first one: the life of love.
