Timeline (Origins)

**Warning: This Page Will Contain Spoilers. Proceed at your own risk.**

**The clans had grown too big for their own good. They turned their backs on the stars, becoming little more than organized groups of rogues. They no longer honored the code. They no longer held gatherings and only a few healers attended the half-moon meetings. In secret, of course, as it was now forbidden. The land was gripped with bloodshed and fear. Their ancestors watched on with sorrow, knowing what had to be done. Stripping the leaders of their remaining lives, there was rage and panic amongst the clans as the leaders all fell beneath a blood red full moon.**

**It was in that moment that chaos swept across the great territories. Some cats embraced this new lifestyle while others had their faith in their ancestors restored. StarClan watched as the great hunger struck the territories. There was little hope left. It was then that StarClan came down from the sky, their starry pelts faded and dull from being forgotten for so long. They said, to those who would still listen, that in order to find peace, they must cross the great sea. It would be there, on the new island that our story begins. The story of the cats that never truly lost hope.**

## Year One

### BayClan

* Ryestar is chosen by StarClan to be the first leader of BayClan. They are guided to a territory by the sea by the twinkling of the stars.
* Antheart is chosen by StarClan to be the first medicine cat of BayClan.
* StarClan tells Ryestar to put his paw on the Moon Tree. The cats he sees will be his new clanmates. He closes his eyes and describes the cats one by one:
	+ He sees Brindlewing.
	+ He sees Quailspeckle.
	+ He sees Frostheart.
	+ He sees Weedfur.
	+ He sees Fernpaw.
	+ He sees Goldenkit.
	+ He sees Nightkit.
* Their first NewLeaf is a struggle for the clan. Many of the clan's warriors are elderly or too young to hunt for themselves yet. This territory is unfamiliar and undesired territory. The clan does not have a deputy for many moons due to the number of elders, apprentices, and kits. Fernbee becomes a warrior and Goldenpaw becomes an apprentice. The only cat who seems to support Ryestar is Fernbee, who becomes his mate. Many of the cats wonder about switching clans or voice their concerns about Ryestar's leadership.
* Their first greenleaf begins and things haven't really changed much. The cats are trying to tough it out in their new land, and Fernbee is the only cat seemingly having a good time by the sea. Antheart brings a litter of kittens into the camp which restores some hope to the clan. Nightpaw is made an apprentice the same moon. Frostheart, the clan's oldest elder, passes away at 182 moons old. She was very close with many cats and the loss is felt throughout the clan. The clan begins to finally begin supplying themselves with a steady supply of food and herbs and things are starting to look up for the clan at last.
* Their first leaf-fall comes, and things have been pretty good for the clan overall. Antheart has begun to form a trusting bond with Ryestar at last and everyone seems to be energetic and well fed. They have learned to efficiently hunt and fish and have begun teaching these techniques to the younger cats. The clan drives away a small group of rogues that were hunting in their territory securing their source of food. Goldenwhisker, who had been acting suspiciously for moons, becomes a warrior and, that same moon, has two kits with an unknown cat. Fernbee and Weedfur are trying to convince Ryestar to choose one of them as deputy, but he denies them both. Fernbee is noted to be performing rather poorly towards the end of the moon.
* Their first leafbare comes quicker than the clan had anticipated. The clan figures out how to keep the cold winds out of their dens by weaving barriers made of driftwood and dried seaweed. This makes the cold more bearable. As the first snow falls, Fernbee has another litter of four kits. Quailspeckle doesn't want to be a burden and refuses to acknowledge the aches and pains in her bones. She even goes as far as avoiding the medicine den when she is injured to avoid 'wasting Antheart's time'. -WIP-

### RainClan

* Tinystar is chosen by StarClan to be the first leader of RainClan. They are guided to the misty wetlands surrounded by mangroves and tropical forest.
* Doeheart is chosen to be the first medicine cat of RainClan.
* StarClan tells Tinystar to put her paw on the Moon Tree. The cats she sees will be her new clanmates. She closes her eyes and describes the cats one by one:

* NewLeaf
* Greenleaf
