[/blockquote][/font]Long ago there were four TribesThese four Tribes seldom lived inharmonyOnly when one cat from each Tribe came together
And roam to a new landDid the harmony begin
Four cats, each with destiny intertwined, roamed the land in search of a better world. One cat, named Bolt, found the land that was to be theirs. A second cat, Dark, found the place where each group of cats could gather. He named it Bare-Roots. Another cat, Prairie, searched over the land that they now owned, and found a tree that was white. Even its leaves were a white-hue. She named this tree Moontree, and with it they could talk to their warrior ancestors. The last cat, Marsh, decided to stake his land. He took all of the marshes, and left the rest of the land for the others to decide.[/font]
Decide they did. Prairie marked all of the prairies for her territory. Dark stole all of the fir-forests and dark areas of the land. Bolt had all that was left: the rest of the forests and a small lake. These four cats moved into their territories and staked their camps.
Then, as if by miracle, rogues happened upon the land. They were searching for homes to stay in, and happily joined the four cats. These were the beginnings of the Clans. The Clans happily adopted the names of their leaders as their Clan names. Thus BoltClan, PrairieClan, MarshClan, and DarkClan were born.Now
The Clans have prospered, and all is good. Harmony reigns over the four Clans, draping the cats in a sense of happiness. But the happiness won't last long. For out on the fringes of their lands an evil is rising. From underneath the bushes one can see dark eyes. Watching. Waiting. The time will soon be right. Then they will strike, their forces large, their strength unparralleled.
Amidst all this evil, a prophecy was given. It stated simply:
In the time of hardship
In the time of strife
Four will be chosen
To lead the Clans to victory

Four will be chosen
To lead the Clans to victory
Are you ready to fight?
