The land is covered by a glacier more than a half-mile thick.

Only hostile Pleistocene cats roam the land, driven by their need for bloodshed and survival.

The glacier sheets retreat north, and in its wake, Lake Superior is born. Over time, the waves from the melt slowly form the Apostle Islands.

The Pleistocene animals die with the waves.

The great lakes start to flow into the St. Lawrence River, which forms their current configuration.

Natives from the Late Woodland tradition also occupy the islands and use them as temporary campsites for hunting, fishing, and gathering.

Bobcats, lynx, and cougars roam the Lake Forest in hostile formations unable to form peaceful clans.

European settlers arrive in Wisconsin, and with them, come domesticated cats.

In the Late Woodland tradition, natives tribes -- the Ojibwe and Dakota -- use the islands as resources for food and rest.

The first military outpost is erected in Prairie du Chien and expansion into the state begins.

The domesticated cats follow as the settlers move north. The settlers then start to hunt on the islands, and over time, the bobcats, lynx, and cougars are eliminated and hunted from the islands. The settlers also kill wolves, coyotes, foxes, and black bears in droves.

The great frontier ends and settlements begin. This includs the islands, since trapping and fisheries careen the area into a necessary stop on the trade route. The opening of the Sault Canal in 1855 also increases the already heavy traffic on Lake Superior.

Domestic cats litter the many settlements. Some remain idle kitty-pets, and others disappear into the hardwood forests to form their own colonies.

The first ancestors of the modern clans roam the islands as hostile creatures. Their inability to negotiate or form an agreed hierarchical system causes them to live in eternal bloodshed. 

With the completion of the Railroad, new markets for lumber, fish, and sandstone accelerate development in the region. Families flock to the islands to make a profit and some tourism begins.

The hostile wild cats also accelerate in numbers, as more cats are carried to the island and evade their two-leg homes.

In particular, the cats on Rocky Island and South Twin Island dissolve into an endless war with one another. Their ancestors watch in silence.  

By the 1900s, the resources on the islands are slowly depleted. The fishers decimate the whitefish population. Lumber mills nearly destroy all of the white pine on the islands. Soon the hemlock, hardwood, and cedar follow. The once flourished farms on the islands slowly turn over into summer tourism and recreation.

In 1901, the islands succumb to a horrible flood. The alleged twenty-second island -- Little Steamboat Island -- vanishes completely from unknown natural forces.

The wild cats name this horrific event the Great Waters. In response to their relentless bloodshed, their ancestors raise the lake in a fury and cut them into pieces.

The thin land that once connected Rocky Island and South Twin Island erodes into the water, and the ancestors of the clan and tribe cats come into fruition. The cats that followed the first stone-teller become the tribe. The cats that remained on Rocky island become the clans.

In 1910, the clan cats separate into the clans now known as Redwoodclan, Thistleclan, and Lichenclan based on their ethics and beliefs.

The worst cold wave on record devastates North America. The midwest is hurt the most. The cold wave stretches from Novemeber to March. The lowest temperatures are recorded in February as -58 F / -50 C.

Redwoodclan and Thistleclan lose a large percentage of their kits and apprentices to the cold. The clan cats all move into their respective warrior's den to preserve heat. Starvation hits the clan hard. Thistleclan tunnels into the earth and erects their modern den structures to survive. Lichenclan suffers from a lack of prey but loses few to the brutal temperatures, since the caves isolate them from the cold.

The tribe is also decimated from the cold and all move toward the tribe stone for warmth. Their young also succumb to the cold and several tribe members die from starvation.

Another flood devastates the islands. For twelve hours, intermittent heavy rainfall decimates the area. The water surges into the towns -- some gullies fifty feet wide and twenty feet deep. Large waves from the lake spit boulders and logs up onto the land, which further destroys the settlements. Even unearthed caskets tear up from the earth and carry bodies and limbs through the streets. Astonishingly, there are no reported deaths. 

The three clans -- Redwoodclan, Thistleclan, and Lichenclan -- now established are in the midst of another cross-island war. Their leaders -- Lionstar, Needlestar, and Heronstar -- are ravenous cats with a need for bloodshed.

Disappointed in their actions, their ancestors call on the great waves to remind them of their sin. The flood kills the leaders and many of their followers on the island. In its wake, new leadership is appointed, and the clans return to a short-lived peace.

The death of Heronstar ignits the desire for Lichenclan to rid its pacifist roots. However -- this fire remains largely concealed for some seasons yet.

The tribe avoids the waters, due to the inclination they have for the natural world. Their teller at the time -- a cat named Whitefish -- listens to the lake and leads his cats to the highest point on the island. They come out unscathed, albeit drenched to the bone. 

As tourism flourishes, Rocky Island Air Haven opens on the main island. It comes with a restaurant, rental cabins, and a campground, which caters to trollers and hunters. Some summer homes are also built adjacent to the cabins on the northern peninsula.

The clan cats watch the construction with unease. With the increase in tourism comes more outsiders. Some farm cats become loners, while some kitty-pets  enter the forests, ill-suited to the harsh conditions. Thistleclan suffers the most, as their land slowly succumbs to hunters and stray outsiders.

The tribe remains unaffected by industries or tourism due to its small size. South Twin Island is too small for a consistent two-leg presence. This allows the tribe to become more connected to the natural earth, their existence unbothered by human interference.  

As the commercial industry depletes, tourism became critical on the island. This is when the islands are first introduced as a National Lakeshore in order to preserve its natural shorelines and sea caves. It is also the only way the islands can now make a profit due to the collapse of the fishing industry.

The clan cats -- without constant human interaction -- flourish in an era of peace. However, the summer months are brutal due to the sudden increase in tourism. Thistleclan continues its battle with new loners and consistent two-leg intrusion.

The Apostle Islands are declared a National Lakeshore in an effort to save its natural resources. Tourism becomes the only human interaction on the islands.

The clan cats continue to live in a constant ebb and flow. Some seasons carry conflict, others continue in harmony. The summer months are the hardest, due to the increase in campers and recreational events.

The tribe remains in their own unity. Only the weather and the sudden sickness ever carries conflict for the island dwellers.

Due to climate change, the islands see an increase in disastrous weather and a raise in water levels. This destroys some of the trails on the islands beyond repair. In addition, the appeal of tourism on the islands decreases, and many of the islands lack any funds to maintain their once lavish attractions. Rocky Island -- further out from the mainland -- becomes abandoned and almost devoid of human interaction.

The once popular cabins on the island become desolate and dreary. Their homes no longer support human life, but become havens for rogues and loners.

Without the threat of tourism, the clan cats take control over the island. Thistleclan -- for the first time -- is able to raise as a notable threat to the other clans, since they are not plagued by two-legs and their cats. 

The further islands -- Rocky Island and South Twin Island -- are largely abandoned and only visited by humans on occasion. The once popular trails on the island erode back into the earth and the cabins are run down and inhabitable.

Another era of peace comes to end on the island. Redwoodclan and Lichenclan declare war with one another due to their differences in faith. For the first time since the early 2000s, Thistleclan sees an increase in rogue activity, which leaves the clan restless and uneasy.

To the east, the tribe on South Twin Island turn over their leadership to a young and inexperienced tom: Creek. In addition, a sudden and unnamed sickness claims the island and its cure remains undiscovered.
 

As the new season unfurls, Redwoodclan and Lichenclan are in the throes of a violent war with one another. Lichenclan has extended their territory to encompass the entirety of the Mooncave, successfully banning the other medicine cats from its sacred pool.

Thistleclan still deals with the increasing threat of the rogues, as their scents have started to waft further into their territory. In an effort to combat the rogues, Thievingstar has called a land lock on the tribe, officially barring Redwoodclan from the sandbar.

The tribe has started to heal due to the efforts of Redwoodclan's medicine cat; however, they now have to deal with the looming threat of the two other clans who want them dead.

In the ruins of a violent leaf-fall storm and several, brutal snowstorms, the island enters the new season in turmoil. Redwoodclan enters leaf-bare deeply ill, having caught the sickness from helping the tribe across the lake, while Lichenclan continues to threaten them from the shore.

The two clans are still locked in an endless war, the death count rising on both sides as Minnowstar continues on her desire to rid the island of sin. Redwoodclan's newly appointed deputy, Icesong, however, is able to rally her warriors into a counter-attack and for once, Redwoodclan wins the battle. Minnowstar is reduced to her final life and believes traitors infiltrate her rank. As the season ends, the Lichenclan delivers mass punishments upon her warriors. A rebellion grows in the shadows.

Between the conifers, Thistleclan struggles for survival, their camp in ruins after the leaf-fall storm. Unable to rebuild before the first frost, the pine dwellers move to the Great Owl Tree for shelter, but the cold, blustery moor provides little comfort. With no where else to go, Thievingstar moves her clan to the Abandoned Campground, while the rogues use their weakness to their advantage. It is not until the warmer weather of Green-leaf arrive does Thistleclan reclaim her camp from the rogues.

With the sandbar destroyed, the tribe is once again cut off from the clan cats, unable to cross the treacherous lake on their alone. Marooned, the tribe cats prepare to face another wave of sickness on their own. More tribe cats perish, and as Green-leaf comes and goes, Creek receives an omen and sends a patrol to Redwoodclan to warn them. His own death shortly follows, leaving the inexperienced Fog as the tribe's new teller. Dissent sparks within their ranks as leaf-bare drowns the tribe island in snow.

A viscous cold cuts across both islands at the start of the new season, and with it, treachery and blood-lust continues to follow. Despite multiple warnings from StarClan, RedwoodClan, under the guidance of Icesong, prepares for a counter-strike against LichenClan's camp. Yet unbeknownst to them, Minnowstar has made a dangerous deal with the rogues who occupy the northern shore.

Claiming they were sent by StarClan, the deranged leader welcomes Lily and her rogues into LichenClan territory. Together they strike a deal based on old debts. Lily and her rogues will kill Finchstar, much to the rest of her Clan's chagrin. With the rogues assistance, LichenClan is able to drive RedwoodClan from its camp. Enraged by the attack, Minnowstar sends a patrol to kill the refugees they harbor, but at the last minute, Lily is able to convince the LichenClan leader to send an attack to ThistleClan as well.

Plagued by rogues and the loss of one of their kits, ThistleClan is startled to see LichenClan within their forests, and finally after seasons of tending to only themselves, they are dragged into the ongoing war after the rogues kill Thievingstar. Under Stagstar's new leadership, ThistleClan makes an alliance with RedwoodClan and joins them near the cusp of leaf-bare to end Minnowstar's reign once and more all.

With the aid of the LichenClan rebels and the newly discovered tunnel cats, they are able to defeat Minnowstar and restore peace to the forest in one final, bloody battle. Yarrow, formerly Hemlockheart, becomes the new leader of LichenClan, freeing his Clan of seasons of oppression.

Across the destroyed sandbar, the tribe suffers under Fog's new leadership. Famine grips the twin island as does the constant threat of starving coyotes. Many tribe-mates are conflicted by the young teller's experience. Some believe in Fog and claim their hardships are only an unfortunate coincidence. While others believe Fog was inaccurately chosen, and as punishment, the Tribe of Endless Hunting has sent a plague upon their land. Taking the opportunity, Sumac, a prey-hunter, begins to secure a following of his own, and plans to relieve Fog of his leadership.

During the height of summer, disaster strikes the tribe island. A fire catches the already dried moorland, and during its destructive flames, Fog succumbs to the thunder and ash, his body lost to the lake. Sumac rises in his shadows and enacts a new era upon his tribe-mates, a reign many meet with resistant after he introduces several new rules. Unbeknown to the Tribe, Fog washes ashore the Clan island, where he bides his time, unsure if he should even return.

Leaf-bare begins in a rare season of peace in the aftermath of the Great War. The Clan cats celebrate the lives of their fallen brethren, each practicing their own cultural customs—unaware Poppy and other rogues have escaped to the outlands. Despite the peace, troubling dreams plague the medicine cats.

As the cold season persists, a disastrous blizzard hits the island. Each Clan hunkers down to brave the storm. Across the sandbar, Sumac reigns over the tribe and punishes his tribe-mates by sending them to live in isolation on the isles. Unknowingly, Fog is captured by ThistleClan and kept prisoner. However, he escapes during the storm and finds refuge in RedwoodClan. Tensions begin to heighten between the two Clans.

Cold weather persists until new-leaf. With rapidly rising temperatures, melting snow, and torrential rainfall, a devastating flood hits the islands and forces ThistleClan and LichenClan to find refuge on RedwoodClan. LichenClan happily pools resources with RedwoodClan, while ThistleClan draws harsh border lines and challenges the other Clans to border skirmishes. Many cats are washed into Poppy's land in the north. She keeps them hostage for information.

Sumac demotes Talon as head stone-guard and elects a prey-hunter, Laurel, in his place, further diminishing the stone-guard's role in the Tribe. While in RedwoodClan, Fog meets with the other leaders and vows to return home to his Tribe.

As green-leaf returns, Orchidshade mysteriously disappears and an evil presence returns to the MoonCave. Lilacpaw confers with Coyotecall, the former medicine cat of LichenClan, and promises to do his bidding as the half-moons continue to reveal terrifying prophecies. Icesong leaves RedwoodClan and joins the tunnel cats, compelled by their mission of peace. Tigerpool is elected deputy in her place.

With the water receding and leaf-fall returning, LichenClan returns home to their shores, but ThistleClan refuses to return the land to RedwoodClan. Threats of war linger between the two Clan, despite the tunnel cats and LichenClan's call for peace. Poppy sends out her rogues to spy on the Clans and take advantage of their weakened borders.

Fog returns to the Tribe and challenges Sumac for his rightful place as Teller.

The hostile wild cats succumb to the Great Waters. The cats who follow Tide become the tribe. The cats who remain on Rocky Island form the Warrior Code and try to coexist as one clan under their elected leader: Star.

The clan cats dissolve into chaos once more as their values to account for a new world change. Some believe the code is too outdated, others believe the code should be followed as their ancestors intended. The debates turn into bloodshed, and their first elected leader, Star, old and decrepit, is found dead by the waterfall.

The one clan then breaks into three distinct clans. The cats who believe in the original code become Redwoodclan under their new elected leader: Ospreystar. Peace returns to the island, and it is decided that each full moon the clans will reunite by the waterfall in harmony to honor their first leader.

A mother bear intrudes the redwood camp in search of its cubs. The clan loses three warriors and two kits in an effort to drive it from their territory.

Lichenclan declares war on both Redwoodclan and Thistleclan. Under the guidance of his medicine cat, Coyotecall, Heronstar believes that the other two clans are filled with heretics. He barricades the other medicine cats from the Mooncave and attacks them at the full-moon.

Lionstar retaliates and also uses the Lichenclan threat as leverage to take more land from Thistleclan, since the increase in tourism and war has weakened their clan.

Starclan retaliates and calls a flood to devastate the clans. All three leaders are drowned and lose all lives at once.

Whitestar becomes the new leader of Redwoodclan and returns the land to Thistleclan.

Redwoodclan and Lichenclan move between periods of conflict and peace based on their leadership. Redwoodclan believes that the Mooncave is for all cats, and upholds the belief that an honorable warrior does not need to kill other cats to win a battle. 

Redwoodclan takes in a kitty-pet mother heavy with kits. The mother was driven from Thistleclan territory. When Thistleclan discovers that they had accepted the queen and her kits, it turns into a bloody conflict. Thistleclan believes that all outsiders should be treated as enemies, and that their outsider blood will weaken their ancient warrior lineage. They also believe that if outsiders are treated with any kindness, then they will further take advantage of the clan cats.

A war is declared between the two, which eventually leads to the former kitty-pet's death. This further enrages the Redwood warriors, and and with the arrival of camping season and the two-legs, Thistleclan surrenders due to their weakened state from the tourism.

Redwoodclan and Lichenclan contest for the most powerful clan on the island. The increase in tourism causes Thistleclan to weaken in comparison, since their territory is filled with hikers, hunters, and campers.

The constant war between Redwoodclan and Lichenclan fluctuates between clan leadership. The first half of the decade, Redwoodclan is under the leadership of Bearstar. The she-cat is more hostile than past Redwood leaders and launches several attacks on Lichenclan.

With her death, the more docile Cloudstar comes to power. He is able to make peace negotiations with Lichenclan, and the conflict subsides for the first time in decades.

A massive blizzard decimates the clans from October 31 - November 3. A total of 37 inches cover the forest and landlocks the three clans in their respective camps.

A group of Redwood apprentices and two warriors are trapped out near the southern cliffs in the storm. The leader Leafstar and a band of warriors brave the dangerous storm to save them. Leafstar loses her final life when a tree is dislodged in the storm and trapps her in the suffocating snow. Her warriors can not save her and she dies to save her brethren. She is remembered as a notorious leader for her selfless heart and courageous spirit.

Tourism decreases on the island, and Thistleclan rises as a notable threat within the forest.

In the middle of the decade, Thistleclan attacks Redwoodclan and tries to expand their borders to encompass the entire sandy creek to accommodate their growing numbers. Redwoodclan retaliates, and the two are shrouded in conflict for the rest of the decade.

Peace is not declared between the clans until a resolution is finalized. Both clans decide to share the river resources without conflict and remain on either side of their borders.

Tensions return between Redwoodclan and Lichenclan, as the Lichenclan leader, Sagestar, launches an attack on the forest clan.

The current leader, Heatherstar, loses her deputy Bluetail in battle and Gorseheart is announced as the new deputy. Heatherstar is a diplomatic she-cat, who does not believe in an unjust war. She does not train her warriors for battle, and the clan slowly loses more senior warriors as she refuses to ambush her attackers.

Gorseheart is killed in battle as the tensions between Redwoodclan and Lichenclan worsen. Under the new leadership of Minnowstar, Lichenclan declares their desire for the Mooncave, which echoes Heronstar's  ancient declaration.

More senior warriors die in battle, and without much choice, Heatherstar elects the nervous Finchtail as her deputy. He was once her apprentice, moons ago, and despite his many anxieties, she knows he will lead Redwoodclan well.

Lichenclan retreats with the cold weather.

Redwoodclan enters the winter with few senior warriors, due to the many skirmishes with Lichenclan. The clan falls into a starvation and loses more cats.

When the warm air arrives, Heatherstar loses her last life in the first border skirmish of the season. Finchstar becomes leader of the clan. Minkfur, a former kitty-pet, is elected as the new deputy.

The medicine cat Marsh-heart resigns, and his sister Orchidshade, a former warrior, takes his place.

Redwoodclan slowly regains its numbers as new kits turn into apprentices and the summer returns.

Skirmishes litter the summer months, as Redwoodclan and Lichenclan fight over the Mooncave territory.

Finchstar declares his attempt at peace negotiations during a clan meeting.

Finchstar and Minnowstar meet for an unsuccessful peace negotiation, and an official war is declared between the two clans.

Minkfur dies in a sudden mudslide/cave-in while on a border patrol near the Lichenclan caves. Redfox is declared as the next deputy of Redwoodclan.

Beneath the full moon at the falls, a tribe cat disrupts the Gathering and pleads for help. This is the first time the tribe cats and clan cats have interacted in centuries. Finchstar welcomes the tribe cat into Redwoodclan and promises to help him, while Minnowstar condemns the tom and demands her clan to leave.

The morning after the Gathering, Minnowstar sends Hemlockheart and a band of skilled warriors to attack Redwoodclan's camp and kill the tribe cat they've chosen to shelter. Hemlockheart retreats when he realizes that the tribe cat is no longer in their camp. Two warriors are killed and several are injured.

At the same time as the attack, Finchstar and Orchidshade lead a patrol to the tribe in order to evaluate their sickness. While they are there, Orchidshade begins to treat the tribe cats but realizes she needs Lungwort since the severity of the green-cough has grown to yellow-cough. However, Lungwort only grows on Lichenclan territory.

After promising to help the tribe, Finchstar returns to camp only to find it bloodied and massacred after the attack. He faces civil unrest as his clan voices their concerns about the war and the tribe.

At the half-moon, Orchidshade and Ratwhisker are banned from the Mooncave, as Lichenclan has decided to claim it as their own. Orchidshade decides to ask Cinderface for the Lungwort, but she refuses. Briarpaw, however, decides to help and shows the other medicine cats where the Lungwort grows as Cinderface meets with Starclan.

Orchideshade and a band of Redwoodclan warriors try to cross Thistleclan territory to assist the tribe with the now possessed Lungwort, but a Thistlelcan patrol stops them and a battle breaks out.

Finchstar launches an attack on Lichenclan in an effort to retake the Mooncave. However, Lichenclan becomes victorious when Minnowstar takes Finchstar's first life, and the redwood warrior retreat.

Both Orchidshade and Smallpaw receive mysterious dreams from Starclan.

At the Gathering, Minnowstar refuses to come, so instead Hemlockheart arrives in her place. The rest of the Gathering is rather uneventful for the clan cats. However, Orchidshade discovers that all of the medicine cats have received a mysterious dream from Starclan. She also promises to assist Ratwhisker in his training.

In an attempt to make them stronger, Redfox calls the clan together and orders the senior warriors to train the other warriors in battle.

The senior warriors of Redwoodclan work to train the warriors and apprentices, while Finchstar mulls over the future of his clan, unsure of how to combat Lichenclan's violence.

A violent leaf-fall storm falls upon the island. While Redwoodclan is largely unaffected, save for some fallen trees, Redfox, Orchidshade, and a few warriors discover that the sandbar path has been destroyed due to excessive flooding, cutting them off from the tribe.

Orchidshade and Smallpaw meet with the other Medicine Cats in secret to discuss their mysterious dreams.

Before the season turns, Orchidshade discovers that some of her clan-mates have fallen ill. At first, she mistakes the disease for the usual, seasonal cold or flu. However, to her dismay, she quickly realizes Redwoodclan has been infected with the deadly tribe sickness, which results in the death of several warriors and apprentices.

Despite the cold, the new season starts with a border skirmish between Lichenclan and Redwoodclan, which results in the deaths on both sides.

On a hunting patrol, Redfox loses her life protecting her clan-mates from a starved, ravenous fox. Gutted, Finchstar loses not only his deputy but his mate as well.

Icesong is appointed as the new deputy of Redwoodclan.

Smallpaw succumbs to the sickness, and Redwoodclan loses their medicine cat apprentice, leaving Orchidshade to face the disease alone.

In the wake of Smallpaw's death, a young, head-strong tom named Bouncepaw barges into Orchidshade's den and offers himself as her new apprentice. Orchidshade relunctantly decides to take him on.

As the new deputy, Icesong begins to train her warriors under a new battle regime, hoping to once and for all halt Lichenclan in their murderous tracks.

After moons of training, their efforts pay off when a secret, rebellion patrol from Lichenclan, consisting of Briarpaw and Shadowface, risks their lives to meet with Finchstar and Icesong. They warn the Redwoodclan leader's about Minnowstar's future attack.

As Briarpaw returns to Lichenclan, she suddenly hears Starclan call out to her. At the same time, both Orchidshade and Bouncepaw hear the same call. The three medicine cats work together to follow the mysterious voices into the tunnels, where they are visited by Starclan. All three cats receive trecherous omens.

Redwoodclan welcomes a tribe patrol who risked their lives to cross the sandbar to deliver an omen their teller received about the clans. Sunrise delivers the omen to both Finchstar and Icesong. The tribe cats choose to remain in Redwoodclan for a moon.

A moon after the rebellion's warning, Lichenclan attacks, hoping to infiltrate Redwoodclan's camp once again. However, Redwoodclan is ready and ambushes them from the trees above, for once having the clear advantage. A few tribe cats assist in battle as well. Finchstar is able to take one of Minnowstar's lives and wins the battle for Redwoodclan.

After the battle, Redwoodclan takes in their first Lichenclan refuge.

Confident after their win, Finchstar and Icesong trek to Thistleclan's camp at the Abandoned Campground to ask for an alliance. Thievinstar refuses.

During a leaf-fall Gathering, Redwoodclan witnesses Minnowstar banish a warrior in front of the falls for "sneezing." Finchstar takes the she-cat in as another refugee.

After being banished from their Clan, two LichenClan warriors join RedwoodClan as refugees.

As leaf-bare descends upon the island, Icesong convinces Finchstar to make an offensive attack on Lichenclan. Orchidshade advises them not to because of the omen sent to her by Starclan, fearing the battle will result in too many casualties.

Before the season closes, the medicine cats from each clan meet in secret at the lagoon, hidden under the falls, where Bouncepaw is finally accepted as an actual medicine cat's apprentice. Omens are delivered to each clan.

Despite receiving another omen from StarClan, Finchstar and Icesong continue to train for a counter-strike attack on LichenClan's camp.

In preparation for the attack, Icesong approaches the refugees to gain information about LichenClan's camp.

Just at the cusp of leaf-bare's end, Icesong and a LichenClan refugee lead a battle patrol into the depths of LichenClan's shore and launch a raid on their camp. To their dismay, they discover LichenClan has sided with the rogues, and they are outnumbered. RedwoodClan is forced to retreat but not without deadly consequence. Many are slain in battle.

Icesong returns to camp barely conscious and awakes in the medicine cat's den under Orchidshade's care. They argue over the sign Orchidshade received as it was ignored by her leadership.

Finchstar learns of the rogues and asks his deputy if they should share the new, deadly alliance with ThistleClan. They ultimately agree to keep the information to themselves.

Patchstrike, one of the LichenClan refugees, intercepts Briarfall in the tunnels, where she warns him of another dangerous LichenClan attack. Unfortunately her knowledge is limited. She only knows they are targeting the refugees.

Near the end of new-leaf, LichenClan and the rogues launch another attack on their Clan during a wet, foggy night. With the rogues help, they're able to defeat Finchstar and take one of his lives.

Confidence shaken, Finchstar accompanies his medicine cats to the secret lagoon, where Heatherstar visits him in a dream, convincing the tom he's on the right path. Alongside her leader, Orchidshade gives Bouncepaw his medicine cat name, Bouncefire.

Icesong gives birth to her second litter after the death of her daughter and father of her kits. Instead of resuming her deputy duties, the she-cat agrees to divy up her responsibilities among the senior warriors.

An ominous red moon descends upon the island following LichenClan's attack. Fearing it's a sign, Finchstar decides to remain in camp instead of bringing his Clan to the Gathering.

Despite their harrowing loss, Finchstar and Icesong refuse to give into LichenClan and the rogues. They decide to speak with the LichenClan refugees in their camp and offer them permanent ranks within their Clan.

At the following Gathering, Finchstar learns LichenClan attacked ThistleClan's camp and killed Thievingstar. Using the opportunity, he devises a plan to meet with the newly named Stagstar, hopeful for an alliance.

On the cusp of leaf-fall, the LichenClan rebels rush a message to Finchstar and Icesong. They inform the leader that Minnowstar only has one life remaining. Finchstar and Icesong begin to devise an attack.

A moon later, Finchstar and Icesong meet Stagstar and Firfoot at the Sandy Creek, where they form an alliance, promising to avenge Thievingstar and put an end to the war.

With ThistleClan and the LichenClan rebels on their side, RedwoodClan launches an attack on LichenClan near the end of leaf-fall in the middle of the night. It is a gruesome, bloody battle, but Finchstar is able to stand his own against the rogues sent to kill him.

The aligned forces win the war against LichenClan and end the Heron-line once and for all with Minnowstar's death.

RedwoodClan enters the new season celebrating the lives of their fallen brethren, where Bouncefire lashes out at the clan. Orchidshade attends half-moon without him and receives a vague, dark vision. Tension between Orchidshade and Bouncefire continues to brew. Icesong returns the refugees back to LichenClan.

The blizzard kicks a massive storm into the Redwood forests, and warriors are forbidden to leave camp. The tribe’s refugee teller, Fog, escapes from ThistleClan during the blizzard and is taken in by RedwoodClan.

Bouncefire leaves RedwoodClan and sets out on a solo journey. Orchidshade is left without a second medicine cat to brave the leaf-bare.

After Vega’s appearance at the gathering, Icesong is inspired by the message of the tunnel cats. Together, Icesong and Finchstar travel to the lagoon to meet with Vega. Icesong decides to join the tunnel cats.

New-leaf brings treacherous currents, and a great flood devastates the island. ThistleClan and LichenClan are forced from their homes and find refuge in RedwoodClan territory.

The leaders and deputies from each Clan come together to discuss new borders and rules during their temporary displacement. ThistleClan refuses to share resources and draws harsh territory lines at the Bear Stones.

Orchidshade takes Asterstorm as her new medicine cat apprentice. Together they attend half-moon, where they are unable to speak to Starclan because of the flooded lagoon. However, Lilacpaw has another message for Orchidshade. The apprentice tells Orchidshade of a hidden pool, beneath the earth. There the stars will talk to her.

Skeptical but destined to face her fate, Orchidshade travels solo. Underground she finds a mysterious voice and disappears following it. A search party is sent to find Orchidshade. They discover an empty tunnel filled with water and presume the medicine cat drowned. Asterstorm is left as the sole medicine cat of RedwoodClan.

Icesong leaves for the tunnels and Tigerpool is elected as RedwoodClan’s new deputy. LichenClan returns to their home while ThistleClan persists on Redwood Clan territory. Tensions grow as the new deputy is less tolerant of outsiders and senior warriors echo sentiments, worried that with leaf-bare, their territory will be spread thin.

Finchstar and Tigerpool go to the Bear Stones to meet with Stagstar and Firfoot. ThistleClan is no longer welcome on their land. As tension intensifies, a stray rogue is found wandering on RedwoodClan land.

The hostile wild cats succumb to the Great Waters. The cats who follow Tide become the tribe. The cats who remain on Rocky Island form the Warrior Code and try to coexist as one clan under their elected leader: Star.

The clan cats dissolve into chaos once more as their values to account for a new world change. Some believe the code is too outdated, others believe the code should be followed as their ancestors intended. The debates turn into bloodshed, and their first elected leader, Star, old and decrepit, is found dead by the waterfall.

The one clan then breaks into three distinct clans. The cats who believe the code should be rewritten to account for a shift in values and beliefs become Thistleclan under their elected leader: Ivystar. Peace returns to the island, and it is decided that each full moon the clans will reunite by the waterfall in harmony to honor their first leader.

Two-leg activity in Thistleclan increases as construction on several tourist attractions begins. The usual hunters and trollers still occupy their land, however, this slowly changes as trails are made and the usual predator animals are eliminated from the island. As more tourists arrive to see the attractions, Thistleclan retreats from the north shore and moves their borders back to protect the clan.

Lichenclan declares war on both Redwoodclan and Thistleclan. Under the guidance of his medicine cat, Coyotecall, Heronstar believes that the other two clans are filled with heretics. He barricades the other medicine cats from the Mooncave and attacks them at the full-moon.

Weakened by threats from both Redwoodclan and Lichenclan, and the increase in two-leg activity, Needlestar declares their succession from the warrior code and Starclan. This declaration comes from his belief that if Starclan existed then they would not allow such horror to devastate his clan. He announces their departure to the north.

Starclan retaliates and calls a flood to devastate the clans. All three leaders are drowned and lose all lives at once.

Elmstar becomes the new leader and returns to the white pine forest. She declares their return to the warrior code and Starclan, however, their belief is much weaker than before.

While Redwoodclan and Lichenclan contest for the most powerful clan in the forest, Thistleclan weakens considerably due to the rapid tourism on the island. Campers, hikers, and tourists infest their territory and disrupt their natural resources.

Natural predators, such as fox, bears, and coyotes, either flee or are eliminated from the island. While this is seen as a beacon of hope for the Thistleclan warriors, the sudden increase in two-leg activity eventually leads to their downfall.

Thistleclan drives a pregnant kitty-pet from their land, since their clan is too stressed and weakened to accommodate outsiders. They also believe that any outsider interaction will eventually lead to bloodshed and tainted bloodlines. The Thistleclan cats soon discover that Redwoodclan had taken in the kitty-pet and a war is declared between the clans.

A band of Thistleclan warriors are sent to the Redwood camp over the half-moon, and the kitty-pet is killed. This further enrages the Redwood warriors, and with the arrival of camping season and the two-legs, Thistleclan is forced to surrender. 

The Apostle Islands is declared a National Lakeshore and tourism skyrockets on the island. In an effort to drive out feral cat populations, many clan cats are trapped and killed over the decade.

Thistleclan is affected the most by these efforts, and they are almost eliminated from the island. As a last resort, the remaining Thistleclan cats, under their leader Laurelstar, retreat into the underground tunnels to save their clan. They are absent from the fulls-moon and half-moons for almost a full season at the end of the decade.

Tourism on the island slowly decreases as the seasons go by. Thistleclan resurfaces from the tunnels, as their numbers slowly increase, and their natural resources return. With an increase in storms during the 80s, the many trails within the white pine forest are destroyed, and for a few seasons, Rocky Island is deemed too dangerous for two-leg travel.

In the summer of 1988, a tornado touches down by the islands and sends horrific waves into the sea shore. The strong winds from the storm send several trees into the Thistleclan camp. A young apprentice, named Greypaw, manages to save the leader, Fogstar, from a tree that crashes  into his den.

The apprentice is named Greytornado, and he is celebrated as a clan hero. He eventually is elected deputy seasons into his warriorship, and leads the clan well into the 90s and early 2000s as Greystar.

Tourism further decreases on the island, and Thistleclan slowly rebuilds as a threat toward the other clans. For the first half of the decade, the clan is under the leadership of Fogstar. He is a notable leader that makes strides to establish Thistleclan as a formidable clan that deserves more land. He is the leader that first pushes for the sandy creek as a resource for the clan. His efforts, however, are disregarded, since Redwoodclan still sees them as the weakest clan in the forest.

At the end of the decade, Greystar rises to power and becomes one of the most powerful leaders in Thistleclan history. He leads the clan until the mid 2000s and only retires when he is no longer able to fight a band of foxes injure him gravely. Under his leadership, Thistleclan earns the right to fish from the sandy creek and this strengthens their clan.

Under the new leadership of Froststar, the clan continues to strengthen as the Island shuts down two-leg tourism. The cabins and campgrounds in the north slowly deteriorate from lack of use, and the clan is able to expand their borders back to the cliffs.

In the late summer, a band of haughty apprentices are attacked by a stray porcupine. One takes a quill to the heart and dies from the wound. The others suffer life-threatening injuries, and they are bound to medicine cat's den for moons.

Yarrowfrost is appointed as the new medicine cat of Thistleclan around this time.

Froststar banishes a warrior of his, Bittersong, for indirectly killing a clan-mate out of jealousy. She finds refuge in the outlands as a rogue and starts to attack Thistleclan out of revenge. Unable to have her own children, she attempts to steal their kits several times over the next few seasons but fails.

The banished warrior, Bittersong, finally gives birth to a daughter, Lily. Her rogue daughter is taught to despise Thistleclan by her revengeful mother, and the two attack Thistleclan until Bittersong's inevitable death over the leaf-bare.

From the late 2000s, a band of foxes rages war with the Thistleclan warriors. They are the same foxes that had forced Greystar into retirement. Over the years, they slowly pick off Thistleclan warriors one by one and steal prey from the forest.

In effort to end this terror, a young warrior named Thievingstreak leads a successful patrol against the foxes and seemingly drives them from the territory. When the former deputy, Hawkwing, dies unexpectedly from green-cough, Thievingstreak is appointed as his successor.

Later, the foxes return to the white pine forest and avenge their fallen brethren. They gravely injure Thievingstreak, who is then left with an uneven, labored gait.

Throughout the season, Lily, the rogue daughter of the banished Bittersong, attacks Thistleclan patrols for fun with her mate Sophie and their now stolen, rogue son, Oleander. Lily schemes to finally steal a kit like her mother always wanted.

Near the end of the season, Yarrowfrost takes on an older apprentice named Ratwhisker.

Before the season ends, Lily successfully is able to steal a Thistleclan kit, killing his mother in the process. His sister, Coyotekit, is left behind, while his father, Bramblestrike tries to chase down the rogues and retrieve his son. Bramblestrike fails, but is able to gravely injure Lily's mate before she knocks him unconsious. The stolen kit is renamed Hawthorne and is trained to destest Thistleclan as well.

Near the start of the season, Yarrowfrost dies from old age and Ratwhisker becomes the sole medicine cat of Thistleclan.

Froststar then follows, his death caused by untreated green-cough, and Thievingstar becomes the new leader of Thistleclan. She appoints Foxshade as her deputy.

Near the start of summer, the clan sees an odd increase in loner and rogue activity. Thievingstar addresses her concerns at a clan meeting.

A Thistleclan patrol then makes a strange encounter with a lone rogue near the northern cliffs. 

The lone rogue reveals himself to be Curiosity, an ex-tribe member, who was banished for killing a tribe-mate. Now on the clan island, he moves into the abandoned campground and takes it as his own. He drives out Lily and her family, forcing them into the northern lands, far from Thistleclan.

The foxes return to the territory, however, it is unsure if they are related to the same foxes that had terrorized Thistleclan previously.

Another lone rogue is discovered in the forest and tensions rise within the clan.

Foxshade is mauled by a band of foxes. Her injuries are too severe for her to continue as deputy. Hawktail is elected as her successor.

Beneath the full moon at the falls, a tribe cat disrupts the Gathering and pleads for help. This is the first time the tribe cats and clan cats have interacted in centuries. Thievingstar distrusts the tribe cat and declares him a liar. She believes he is a rogue sent to play tricks. She then asks her clan to leave.

Ratwhisker receives a mysterious dream from Starclan, which he believes is for Thievingstar. However, she remains skeptical and dismisses it.

Thievingstar and a band of Thistleclan warriors run into the same strange rogue from earlier. He demands passage through their territory, and when Thievingstar refuses, he orders his accomplice to break Mistpaw's leg. The patrol attacks but it is too late. Before, Curiosity leaves, he threatens Thievingstar and her clan.

Agitated, Thievingstar decides to hold a mass warrior ceremony and appoints seven new warriors at once. During this ceremony, she also announces her and Hawktail's decision to land lock the tribe, which will prevent Redwoodclan from passing through their territory.

At the half-moon, Ratwhisker and Orchidshade are banned from the Mooncave, as Lichenclan has decided to claim it as their own. Briarpaw, however, decides to help and shows the other medicine cats where the Lungwort grows as Cinderface meets with Starclan.

Redwoodclan tries to cross their territory to reach the sandbar. However, a Thistlelcan sentry spots them and warns Hawktail. She and a patrol quickly meet the Redwoodclan warriors. A battle ensues.

Curiosity continues to threaten Thievingstar and eventually kidnaps one of her apprentices, Nettlepaw, in an attempt to draw out to the abandoned campground. His plan works and he takes one of her lives and gravely injures the apprentice. He also reveals he used to belong to the tribe.

Hawktail orders a rescue patrol once Nettlepaw makes it back to camp barely alive. The patrol is met by three rogues, including Curiosity, and a fight ensues. Both Cederflame and Crowfrost lose their lives in battle, while Hawktail is horrendously injured as well. Blazingstorm and Harechaser are able, however, to safely take Thievingstar back to camp.

Paranoid, Thievingstar enacts a curfew on her clan. No one is allowed to leave camp alone, nor can they leave the bramble barrier from dusk to dawn.

Hawktail decides to step down as deputy due to the loss of her sister, friend, and her injuries. Firfoot takes her place.

Ratwhisker receives a mysterious dream from Starclan and learns at the Gathering that the other medicine cats have received similar dreams as well. Orchidshade also agrees to assist him in his training since he never finished it with his previous mentor, Yarrowfrost.

Mistrustful of the tribe, Thievingstar orders Firfoot to take a patrol across the sandbar to investigate the tribe. Thievingstar wants to threaten them. However, Firfoot returns without conflict, having decided that the tribe is harmless.

Out on patrol, a Thistleclan band discovers a group of young, Lichenclan warriors near the sandbar, who were sent to "destroy it" by Minnowstar. A battle ensues, and Thistleclan leaves the victor, having gravely injured a Lichenclan warrior.

A month of intense rainfall ends with a violent storm, which results in massive flooding. Thistleclan's camp is destroyed beyond repair, resulting in the deaths of few warriors and apprentices. In it's aftermath, Thievingstar demotes Firfoot out of frustration and anger.

Ratwhiskers meets with the other Medicine Cats in secret to discuss their mysterious dreams from Starclan.

Moving to higher ground, Thistleclan relocates to the Great Owl Tree, but the land is cold and unforgiving, providing no natural shelter. Stagflight, Froststar's grandson, is then promoted to deputy.

As they try to settle near the Great Owl Tree, sickness falls across the clan, killing a handful of their warriors and apprentices. Ratwhisker falls gravely ill, leaving a rogue, Aster, as their sole healer.

Unbeknownst to her clan, Thievingstar secretly gives birth to three kits on a patrol. The kits are given to Morningmist to raise as her own.

At the start of the new season, Stagflight sends a patrol to evaluate their old camp in hopes of rebuilding in new-leaf. When the patrol arrives, they discover that their home is infiltrated with rogues. A battle ensues.

Ratwhisker passes due to the sickness, a single name on his dying lips, which leaves Thistleclan without a medicine cat.

Starving and sick, Thistleclan moves to the Abandoned Campground with the help of the healer, Aster. While at the campground, it is discovered that Shadepaw has a knack for healing, and the young tom is appointed as the new medicine cat of Thistleclan.

After moving into the campground, Yewthorn leads a patrol to check out their old camp, hoping the rogues have left. To their horror, a fight ensues and the rogues successfully drive Thistleclan out of their home.

Empowered to reclaim her home, Thievingstar finally ends the curfew and starts to train her warriors to take back their camp once warmer weather returns.

Unbeknownst to Thistleclan, however, Lily has returned from the outlands with her three children. Bent on revenge, she murders Curiosity in cold blood and claims the old Thistleclan camp as her own.

Wanting to carry on her mother's mission to terrorize Thistleclan, Lily sends her three children to the abandoned campground as she pays a personal visit to Thievingstar herself. However, the she-cat is disappointed to find the Thistleclan has no kits to steal.

Shortly after the attacks, Finchstar and Icesong journey to Thistleclan's makeshift camp to form an alliance against Lichenclan. Thievingstar denies their offer, not wanting to get involved in a war while the rogues claim her camp.

After the attacks on her camp, Thievingstar and Stagflight lead their warriors into battle before the dawn. They are successfully able to take back their camp and drive out the rogues.

Batterened and brurised, Lily and her rogues are forced to take refugee on the northern shores where resources are scarce.

Thistleclan begans the laborious task of rebuilding their camp, but for the first time since the flood, the air is joyful and sparked with newfound life.

In the dead of night, Shadepaw receives a visit from Thistleclan's former medicine cat, Yarrowfrost. The older medicine cat leads the young tom to a mysterious lagoon and tells him only the Dark Forest resides over Lichenclan now.

At a leaf-fall Gathering, Thistleclan witnesses as Minnowstar banishes a warrior for "sneezing." Thievingstar thinks the leader is ridiculous but does not intervene. Before leaving, she decides to warn Finchstar about Lily.

Lily's rogues are able to kidnap a Thistleclan kit after Birchsong, a Thistleclan queen, is betrayed by her rogue lover, who steals their child and hands her to Lily.

Thievingstar banishes Birchsong for endangering her child and engaging in a forbidden relationship with an enemy rogue.

Before the season closes, the medicine cats from each clan meet in secret at the lagoon, hidden under the falls, where Shadepaw finally receives his full medicine cat name. Omens are delivered to each clan.

After the kitnapping of one of their own, Thievingstar and Stagflight lead several patrols, intent on finding the lost kit and returning her home. But they only return each time empty-pawed.

Unbeknowst to ThistleClan, Lily and her rogues, including Cedarkit, move from the northern reaches of the island to live on LichenClan territory instead. A dangerous alliance is formed between the blood-thirsty rogue and Minnowstar.

Shadepool receives a mysterious dream of a comforting meadow. He awakes, learning he must take on Meadowpaw as his medicine cat apprentice. She too also received a mysterious dream from StarClan.

ThistleClan continues to search for the lost kit as new-leaf arrives on the island, but with little luck. The rogues are no where to be seen.

During the end of new-leaf, and a particularly wet, foggy night, LichenClan and the rogues launch a deadly attack on the ThistleClan camp. Lily heads straight for the nursery, ignoring the LichenClan deputy's orders. Trying to protect her pregnant sister, Thievingstar rushes to defend the nursery, but is too late. Lily kills Squirreltail and then Thievingstar.

While waiting to receive her next life, StarClan presents Thievingstar with a final choice: she can either return to her Clan or she can give up the rest of her lives to save her sister and children. Thievingstar chooses to sacrifice her lives for her Clan and returns to the Stars.

Stagflight becomes the new leader of ThistleClan and accompanies his medicine cats to the secret lagoon to receive his nine lives and new names. While at the lagoon, Meadowpaw officially becomes a medicine cat apprentice and receives her first dream.

Stagstar appoints Firfoot as his deputy, who immediately puts the Clan under a strict training regime.

While preparing for his first Gathering as ThistleClan's leader, a blood moon rises above the island. Chilled, Stagstar orders his warriors to remain in camp.

Meadowpaw desperately tries to convince Firfoot to make an alliance with RedwoodClan, hopeful to put an end to the war.

During the Gathering following the blood moon, Stagstar announces Thievingstar's death and makes a pointed thread towards LichenClan. Finchstar secretly asks the tom to meet him in a moon.

On the cusp of leaf-fall, Stagstar and Firfoot meet Finchstar and Icesong at the Sandy Creek, where they decide to make a formal alliance and avenge Thievingstar's death.

As leaf-fall comes to an end, Stagstar and Firfoot lead their warriors onto the shore and attack LichenClan in the dead of the night. With the LichenClan rebels and RedwoodClan warriors on their side, they successfully seize their territory and win the war with Minnowstar's death, but not without consequences.

Stagstar loses his first life in a deadly battle with Lily, who then uses the opportunity to escape into the northern territories with Hawthorn and Poppy. Enraged, Firfoot kills Oleander, where he is left to die on the shore.

Furious over his brother's needless death, Hawthorn confronts Lily as they reach the northern territories and attacks her. They grapple visciously, the battle only ending with Lily's death. Poppy witnesses the attack, and then goes after Hawthorn in a rage. She kills her brother, becoming the only sole survivor of Lily's reign.

ThistleClan enters the new season honoring their dead and preparing for the gruesome leaf-bare to come. As part of their preparations, Stagstar and Firfoot interrogate their prisoner, Fog, the ousted Teller from the Tribe, hoping to secure an alliance. Shadepool and Meadowpaw return from the half-moon with troubling visions.

A blizzard strikes the pine forest during the height of leaf-bare. They are barred from leaving camp, but Fog uses it as an opportunity to escape and hopes for an alliance dwindle. They discover at the following Gathering that RedwoodClan took him in as a refugee.

Out in rogue territory, Poppy gathers what remains of her mother's rogues and any wandering souls to join her new group: Celandine.

With the arrival of new-leaf, a flood devastates the island and pushes ThistleClan once more from their home. They are forced to find refuge in RedwoodClan territory. Many of their warriors and apprentices are washed away into rogue territory—straight into Poppy's paws.

The leaders and deputies from each Clan come together to discuss new borders and rules during their temporary displacement. ThistleClan refuses to share resources and draws harsh territory lines at the Bear Stones.

Despite their leader's hostility towards the other Clans, Shadepool and Meadowpaw travel deeper into RedwoodClan to meet with the other medicine cats. They are unable to speak with StarClan with the lagoon flooded.

At the Gathering, ThistleClan is unnerved by Fog's announcement. They adamantly refuse to share with the other Clans and stick to their borders. Tensions crackle, though clouds do not threaten the moon.

As green-leaf persists, ThistleClan is still unable to return home. Most of their territory remains underwater, particularly their camp. Even as the flood recedes, they fear they can lose their camp and land again. Stagstar and Firfoot discuss faking a sign to keep the Bear Stones for themselves.

Shadepool and Meadowpaw journey to the lagoon. They are startled to find Orchidshade missing, and Asterstorm in her place. Again, they receive troubling dreams from StarClan—threats of war lingering on the horizon. Stagstar and Firfoot catch them on the return, hopeful for a sign they can use.

As leaf-fall returns to the island, Stagstar announces the devastating condition of ThistleClan's land at the Gathering. However, boasts about their strength in response to Finchstar's lingering threat. Hostility rises between RedwoodClan and ThistleClan.

Following the Gathering, Stagstar and Firfoot meet with Finchstar and Tigerpool to discuss the use of their land. As tension thickens between their borders, Poppy sends her spymaster, Leopardface, to take advantage of the distraction and gather information.

The hostile wild cats succumb to the Great Waters. The cats who follow Tide become the tribe. The cats who remain on Rocky Island form the Warrior Code and try to coexist as one clan under their elected leader: Star.

The clan cats dissolve into chaos once more as their values to account for a new world change. Some believe the code is too outdated, others believe the code should be followed as their ancestors intended. The debates turn into bloodshed, and their first elected leader, Star, old and decrepit, is found dead by the waterfall.

The one clan then breaks into three distinct clans. The cats who refuse to fight and honor their ancestors return to the shoreline and become Lichenclan under their elected leader: Windstar. Peace returned to the island, and it is decided that each full moon the clans will reunite by the waterfall in harmony to honor their first leader.

The Mooncave is shortly discovered on their territory and turns into a neutral land for future medicine cats.

Coyotecall becomes the new medicine cat in Lichenclan after his mentor, Saltwhisker, dies. Coyotecall believes that the other clans are filled with heretics, who do not worship their ancestors correctly. He uses signs from Starclan to direct Heronstar toward their first declaration of war.

Lichenclan declares war on both Redwoodclan and Thistleclan. Under the guidance of his medicine cat, Coyotecall, Heronstar believes that the other two clans are filled with heretics. He barricades the other medicine cats from the Mooncave and attacks them at the full-moon.

Heronstar is the first leader in Lichenclan to abandon their pacifist roots. Under his leadership, it is declared that only male born cats related to Hersonstar can lead the clan. This creates the modern patrilineal line that still infects Lichenclan.

Starclan retaliates and calls a flood to devastate the clans. All three leaders are drowned and lose all lives at once.

His brother Reedstar is elected as leader. While he is not as harsh as his brother and allows the other clans to enter the Mooncave, he still believes that Lichenclan should abandon their status as pacifist.

This creates the first rift in the clan, where some warriors believe in a more aggressive and religious Lichenclan under the Heronstar rule; others believe in a harmonious clan that honors Starclan in a more relaxed and monk-like manner. They also believe that any warrior can become leader.

Reedstar launches several attacks on Redwoodclan toward the middle of the decade. One particular battle ends with his death. His son, Wolfstar, comes to power and the conflict with Redwoodclan subsides, since Wolfstar is still tied to their pacifist roots.

Coyotecall dies soon after Reedstar and his successor, Honeyfern, becomes the new medicine cat. Honeyfern returns Lichenclan to its more humble roots, and the war diminishes.

Honeyfern takes on a young she-cat named Lilacpaw as her medicine cat apprentice. A few moons into her mentorship, Honeyfern slips into the lake during a sleet storm and drowns.

Lilacpaw is then rushed to the Mooncave and becomes Lilacbite and the new Lichenclan medicine cat. She receives numerous dreams from Coyotecall and coerces Wolfstar to reinstate the war with Redwoodclan for the Mooncave.

Bloodshed returns to the clans.

Lichenclan enters the decade still in conflict with Redwoodclan and their new hostile leader: Bearstar. Eventually, both Wolfstar and Bearstar die in two notorious battles near the Southern Cliffs. Bearstar is slain in battle, while Wolfstar is thrown into the lake and only returns to shore for his final breaths.

His nephew, Stonestar, becomes the new leader, and the hostile Bearstar is succeeded by her much more diplomatic deputy: Cloudstar. Cloudstar and Stonestar make amends and both clans live harmoniously for seasons.

A deadly tornado touches down by the islands in the summer months. The winds from the storm surge dangerous waters into the shoreline, and the Lichenclan caves flood and drive the sea dwellers into the forest. A few warriors and kits die in the deadly waters.

To avoid the flood, the Lichenclan warriors climb into the birch trees above the shoreline, and once the waters subside, they slowly return to their damaged shore.

A few moons after the flood, Lichenclan battles Redwoodclan for the small strip of birch trees above the caves. Their leader, Darkstar, who is Stonestar's grandson, argues that without the treeline, their warriors will die in another flood.

Redwoodclan refuses at first, but then negotiates a deal with the sea dwellers. Darkstar promises to leave the Mooncave as neutral territory for the next indefinite seasons, and the birch trees are won.

Darkstar, and his successor Crimsonstar, who is also his son, lead Lichenclan in the 90s. Both toms stick to their word and do not launch battles for the Mooncave. Redwoodclan and Lichenclan are rather peaceful for this decade and treat each other with a cool indifference.

Near the end of the decade, Crimsonstar and Greystar argue with one another over the sandy creek. As Thistleclan grows in numbers, their demand for resources increases. Crimonstar eventually allows the clan to fish in their end of the river, and the conflict is resolved. The two clans never unsheathe their claws toward one another, and overall disregard each other as formidable threats.

Lichenclan sees Thistleclan as sinful heathens, and Thistlelcan sees Lichenclan as neurotic  lunatics.

During the winter, a group of rowdy apprentices sneak out of camp to play on the frozen portions of the lake. The thin ice crackles beneath their combined weight, and the apprentices succumb to the icy waters. A warrior on patrol, Egretfeather, attempts to save the apprentices, but she only saves three out of the four.

Nonetheless, she is regarded as a hero in the clan, and when the old deputy, Nettlefur, dies from old age, members in the clan advocate for her as the new deputy. Another tom, descended from Heronstar, Sagestrike, is appointed as deputy instead.

This ignites a civil war within the clan, and Egretfeather is mysteriously found dead a few sunrises later. Her supporters grow quiet, and the inner-conflict subsides out of fear.

A few seasons later, Hollythroat becomes the medicine cat of Lichenclan.

Tensions between Lichenclan and Redwoodclan return to the forest. Sagestar launches a few attacks on the Redwood warriors in an effort to regain their status as a threat in the forest and to test their boundaries. The current Redwoodclan leader, Heatherstar, refuses to fight back and loses warriors as a result.

In the midst of the season, Smokemask is appointed as deputy of Lichenclan when the old deputy dies in a rare coyote attack.

The medicine cat, Hollythroat, takes on a young apprentice: Cinderpaw.

The attacks on Redwoodclan increase as Sagestar demands the entirety of the Mooncave. They launch into several bloody battles with the Redwood warriors and several cats are lost in combat.

Smokemask dies in a battle with Redwoodclan, and his younger brother, Molefur is appointed deputy. Other than Sagestar, Molefur is the last Heron-related male heir in the clan. The elders and late Heron supports dissolve into chaos. Minnowleap, the sole live child of Smokemask, refuses to take a mate and have kits.

Hollythroat then passes away peacefully in her sleep, and Cinderface becomes the new medicine cat.

Near the start of the season, Molefur is found mysteriously drowned in the lake. Minnowleap is appointed as deputy, since she is last the live heir. She is the first she-cat deputy since before Heronstar.

Two moons later, Sagestar dies in battle, and Minnowstar becomes the new Lichenclan leader. While she is a she-cat, her cold and hostile nature wins over the traditionalist in the clan. Without a Heron heir, she appoints the devout Hemlockheart as her deputy.

With the cold weather, Lichenclan retreats and leaves Redwoodclan alone for awhile.

The nervous Finchstar becomes leader of Redwoodclan, and Minnowstar uses his meek nature to her advantage. When the warmth returns to the island, she launches heavier attacks on the forest cats for the Mooncave.

In the late summer, Minnowstar calls a clan meeting and warns her warriors to prepare for war with Redwoodclan.

A bloody skirmish occurs between Lichenclan and Redwoodclan on the southern border. 

Redwoodclan attempts to make peace with Lichenclan, however, Minnowstar refuses and war is officially declared between the clans.

Beneath the full at the falls, a tribe cat disrupts the Gathering and pleads for help. This is the first time the tribe cats and clan cats have interacted in centuries. Minnowstar condemns the tribe cat and demands her clan to leave, while Finchstar welcomes to tribe cat into Redwoodclan.

Minnowstar then orders Hemlockheart to attack the Redwoodclan camp at dawn.

The morning after the Gathering, Minnowstar sends Hemlockheart and a band of skilled warriors to attack Redwoodclan's camp and kill the tribe cat they've chosen to shelter. Hemlockheart retreats when he realizes that the tribe cat is no longer in their camp. Few Lichenclan warriors suffer from serious wounds.

At the same time, Minnowstar condemns the warriors that conversed with Redwoodclan warriors during the Gathering. She sends Shadowface to the front lines of battle, delays Redpaw's warrior ceremony, and make Quickstrike bathe in the Mooncave. Cinderface and Briarpaw accompany the warriors, and Briarpaw receives a mysterious vision from Starclan.

Hemlockheart sends three warriors to guard the Mooncave from the other medicine cats during the Half-Moon. Orchidshade and Ratwhisker are not allowed to enter, and only Cinderface receives a dream from Starclan, as Briarpaw is sent away due to her disobedience. Angered, Briarpaw chases after Ratwhisker and Orchidshade and offers to assist them.

Nightclaw is sent on his first hunting patrol since his punishment last season. While he is on patrol, Lavenderpaw pulls him aside to talk about forming a rebellion. Shadowface overhears their conversation.

Hemlockheart and Minnowstar take a band of Lichenclan warriors to the cliffs to test their battle prowess and loyalty. Their lesson is interruptted when Slatestep, as ex-Thistleclan warrior, stumbles into their territory.

Minnowstar interrogates Slatestep in the tunnels, as he is now her prisoner. He promises her information on Redwoodclan and tries to win her trust.

Redwoodclan launches an attack on Lichenclan to take back the Mooncave. However, Lichenclan is able to maintain order over the cave and wins the battle when Minnowstar takes Finchstar's first life. Redwoodclan retreats.

During the attack, Lavendermist and Nightclaw meet to discuss their ideas for the rebellion. To their surprise, they are joined by Quickstrike, Shadowface, and Briarpaw. They all agree to recruit more cats for their cause.

Hours after the battle, Minnowstar promotes six new warriors to celebrate their victory.

Cinderface shares her ominous dream with Minnowstar, which terrifies to the she-cat to her core.

Minnowstar informs Hemlockheart that she does not want to attend the Gathering. Instead, she wants to lead the clan in mass confession as she feels the other clans want her dead. Hemlockheart refuses to appease her, and instead, offers to take the clan in her place.

Briarpaw receives a mysterious dream from Starclan and shares it with Lavendermist.

Hemlockheart attends the Gathering without Minnowstar and Cinderface. Other than this, the Gathering is rather uneventful. Briarpaw, howver, does learn that all of the medicine cats have received mysterious dreams from Starclan.

While Hemlockheart attends the Gathering with the rest of her clan, Minnowstar and Cinderface lead the other half of the clan in mass confession.

To test his loyalty, Minnowstar leads Hemlockheart in confession, a burning request on her tongue.

Minnowstar calls a war council with her most trusted warriors and orders them to explore the underground tunnels, which will hopefully aid them in an attack on Redwoodclan.

Riverblaze overhears a secret conversation about the rebellion between Lavendermist and his brother, Creekshade. He then shares this information with Minnowstar, who does not want to believe it.

Mistrustful of the tribe, Minnowstar orders a patrol of her newest warriors to investigate the sandbar in hopes they can somehow "destroy it." A Thistleclan catches them instead, which results in a battle. Riverblaze is gravely injured and later dies from his wounds.

Enraged, Minnowstar performs a sacrifice with her Medicine Cats at the Mooncave. During the sacred ceremony, she asks for a plague to be called upon Thistleclan. Shortly after, a violent storm descends across the island and destroyed Thistleclan's camp and the sandbar, cutting the tribe off from the clan cats.

Cinderface and Briarpaw prepare to go to the Mooncave alone for the half-moon. However, Briarpaw deceives her mentor, and instead, meets with the other Medicine Cats in secret.

As the season winds down, Minnowstar grows uneasy, knowing that she may not be able to continue the heron line, especially with Cinderface's ominous omen.

With the new season comes sickness. However, with an abundant supply of lungwort, Lichenclan is able to easily combat the disease, resulting in few deaths.

Hemlockheart discovers Nightclaw near the Redwoodclan and Thistleclan border and accuses him of trechory. Enraged, the deputy challenges him and a fight ensues. Nightclaw is chased into rogue territory, but not without receiving horrible wounds. Equally injured, Hemlockheart's scent is last detected near the Redwoodclan border, and he is never found again.

Both of Hemlockheart and Nightclaw's fur and blood are discovered the next morning by the dawn patrol. Confused, Lichenclan belives they were killed in a border skirmish. However, due to extreme paranoia, Minnowstar believes that Nightclaw killed her deputy, and that a secret rebellion is plotting her death as well. Her suspisions of her clan-mates continue.

Bristlefur is appointed as the new deputy of Lichenclan.

As the new deputy, Bristlefur continues Hemlockheart's rigid battle regime and orders his warriors to train in preparation of their attack on Redwoodclan.

In the shadows, the rebellion meets for the first time since their recruitment efforts. A number of Lichenclan warriors attend the meeting, bolstering the rebellion's size. From the shadows, Nightclaw returns and reveals himself to still be alive. With his support, they plan to inform Redwoodclan of Minnowstar's battle plans and Quickstrike is appointed as their new leader.

Briarpaw, Shadowface, and Quickstrike volunteer to risk their lives and warn Redwoodclan about Minnowstar's battle plans. Briarfall and Quickstrike return to camp unharmed, but Minnowstar catches Shadowface and murders her in cold blood. She returns to Lichenclan and announces Shadowface was killed at the Redwoodclan border.

As Briarpaw starts to head back to Lichenclan, she hears the mysterious voice of Starclan calling out to her. Startled, she returns to Redwoodclan and joins Orchidshade and Bouncepaw as they try to discover the source of the voice in the tunnels.

Terrified of dying without a heir, Minnowstar does the unthinkable and chooses to have kits with her prisoner, Slatestep, an ex-Thistleclan warrior in secret.

Newly pregnant, Minnowstar is awoken by a startled Cinderface and Briarpaw in her den. Cinderface tries to warn her about the danger of her pregnancy based on a dream she received from Starclan. Outraged, Minnowstar accuses her of insanity and demotes her. Briarpaw is named Briarfall and elected as the new medicine cat of Lichenclan.

Minnowstar births her kits in secret and forces them upon one of her warriors, Cricketcall, to raise as her own with Bristlefur. She threatens to kill both Cricketcall and Briarfall if they ever reveal her secret.

Unaware of the rebellion's efforts, Minnowstar chooses to lead an attack on Redwoodclan's camp. However, Redwoodclan is prepared and ambushes them from the trees. Finchstar uses the redwood trees to his advantage and takes one of Minnowstar's lives. Lichenclan loses the battle.

During the attack, Bristlefur is forced to remain back at camp, where he catches a defector.

Minnowstar becomes even more of a recluse after her loss and refuses to perform her duties as leader, such as performing warrior ceremonies.

After Bristlefur nearly drags her out of her den, Minnowstar arrives to a leaf-fall Gathering late. She uses the opportunity to launch a tirade on the other clan and then banishes one of her wariors for "sneezing." Minnowstar claims she is a heathen filled with evils from the Dark Forest.

After the Gathering, the rebellion meets again in secret so Quickstrike can deliver their next move. It is decided that some rebels must give up their names in order to protect their cause, knowing Minnowstar killed Shadowface.

Convinced traitors live among her clan, Minnowstar forces her warriors into a mass confession and punishes them for their sins, claiming she is the voice of Starclan. The punishments vary, some cats receiving harsher sentences than others.

The banished LichenClan warriors flee to the tunnels, where some choose to live secretly among the caves, and others leave for RedwoodClan territory.

Before the season closes, the medicine cats from each clan meet in secret at the lagoon, hidden under the falls. Omens are delivered to each clan.

Angry by her recent actions at the Gathering, Bristlefur storms into Minnowstars den to chastise her. They bicker for awhile until Bristlefur begrudingly leaves, but not without informing Minnowstar of the return of an old aquaintance, Lily.

Sparked by an old memory, Minnowstar seeks the rogue out and finds her in the middle of a snowstorm. They strike a deal based on old, unpaid debts. For safe shelter and food, Lily agrees to kill Finchstar in cold blood.

Minnowstar secretly leads the rogues into LichenClan territory. Knowing her warriors will find fault with their arrival, the leader coerces Briarfall into forging a sign, saying the rogues were sent by StarClan themselves. However, they instead find the water-logged corpse of Cinderface floating in the MoonCave instead.

Despite the ominous warning, Minnowstar announces the arrival of the rogues to her Clan. Begrudingly her warriors accept the rogues into their ranks, but even her most loyal warriors have doubts.

A few nights after the rogues arrival, RedwoodClan attacks their camp just after moon-high. With the rogue's assistance, LichenClan is just able to drive them out into the shore and claim victory. Minnowstar learns that RedwoodClan is harboring some of her old warriors as refugees.

Enraged, Minnowstar calls Lily to her den and orders the rogue to launch an upcoming attack on RedwoodClan. However, Lily is able to convince the deranged leader to attack ThistleClan as well, claiming Thievingstar is also harboring refugees. Minnowstar begrudgingly agrees.

Minnowstar calls her most loyal warriors to strategize her next attack on RedwoodClan, keeping the ThistleClan attack to herself. During the meeting, some of her loyalists suggest they should start interrogating their warriors to test their faith.

Quickstrike, who was invited to the loyalist meeting, relays this to Briarfall, who then runs a warning message to RedwoodClan. She is intercepted by Patchstrike, a former LichenClan warrior, now turned refugee, and informs him of what she knows, which is not a lot.

Two exiled, LichenClan warriors are discovered by a strange group of cats beneath the island. They claim to be descendants of Clan cats and believers in StarClan. They are brought back to their home, far beneath the island, and introduced to their leader, Vega.

During a wet, foggy night, Minnowstar sends two patrols out into the forest. Hawthorn and his sister, Poppy, lead a patrol into RedwoodClan camp with her loyalists. While Bristlefur and Lily lead an attack on ThistleClan.

After winning the battle, Minnowstar allows the rogues to enter her camp and rewards them with the same priveleges of her warriors. The Clan is on edge, even her most devoted loyalists start to question her sanity.

A blood moon ascends over the island following the death of Thievingstar and the taking of one of Finchstar's lives. Convinced it is an omen, Minnowstar urges Briarstar to the MoonCave and forces the medicine cat to lead her through confession, where she reveals she only has one remaining life.

Briarfall receives a concerning sign from StarClan, only to wake in the middle of the night to find a troubled Lilacpaw beside her nest. The medicine cat believes the young she-cat is meant to become her apprentice, so she convenes with StarClan to confirm her hunch.

Lilacpaw becomes the new medicine cat apprentice of LichenClan.

Briarfall finds Quickstrike and together they race into the tunnels and share the news with Finchstar and Icesong, urging them to take action against Minnowstar.

Enraged by the rogues within their camp, Bristlefur confronts Minnowstar alone in her den. The she-cat denounces him as a traitor and exiles him from their shores. She then lies to her Clan and claims the tom is missing and refuses to appoint a deputy until he is "found."

Lily uses this as an opportunity to get more power within LichenClan and acts as Minnowstar's unofficial deputy, which only enrages the loyalists more.

Following the blood moon, Minnowstar relunctantly goes to the Gathering and very quickly denounces the other two Clans as sinful heathens before leaving.

After learning about the cats in the tunnels, Quickstrike convinces Vega and his family to join them in the war against Minnowstar and her reign of terror.

Losing her sanity, Minnowstar refuses to leave her den. She only leaves to promise absolution to her remaining loyalists and swears them to servitude.

Minnowstar goes to the medicine cat's den for poppy seeds, where she instead comes face to face with a troubled Lilacpaw. The leader convinces the young apprentice to face her fears and discover StarClan's forbidden secrets.

Near the end of leaf-fall, RedwoodClan attacks the MoonCave, summoning the LichenClan warriors to battle, but as they leave their caves, they suddenly realize that their camp and shores are also under attack. ThistleClan storms the shoreline, while the rebels attack their own home and Vega and his family secure the tunnels.

Lily uses the battle as an opportunity to escape the Clans and go back into hiding, but as she reaches the northern territories, Hawthorn stops her. Enraged by his Oleander's death, he kills his own mother. Witnessing the murder, Poppy turns on her brother and kills him. Unbeknowst to the Clans, Poppy returns to the northern territory.

Holed in her den, Minnowstar only joins the battle to kill Patchstrike, a rebel, and escapes to the tunnels. Quickstrike makes haste to follow, but is horrifically injured by the crazed she-cat. Yarrow, formally Hemlockheart, appears at the end of the tunnel. Together they face Minnowstar and kill her, ending the Heron-reign once and for all, and securing victory for the war.

LichenClan enters the season under new leadership. After slaying Minnowstar, Yarrow journeys to the lagoon to receive his nine lives and new name. Quickstrike is chosen as his new deputy. They honor their fallen with a ceremony at the MoonCave.

Yarrowstar and Quickstrike identify the remaining loyalists and lead them through a confession, giving Minnowstar's former supporters a chance to be exonerated. Icesong brings a former LichenClan refugee back to their camp and converses with Yarrwostar.

Briarfall and Lilacpaw journey to the lagoon, where Briarfall receives a disturbing vision from StarClan, warning her of something evil lurking in the MoonCave, while Lilacpaw shares a sinister vision with Orchidshade.

A devastating blizzard strikes the shoreline, trapping the LichenClanners within the safety of their Caves. Once the storm settles and new-leaf persists, Yarrowstar brings his warriors to the Gathering and announces the MoonCave as neutral land, inviting other Clans to use it—despite Briarfall's growing concerns.

As the weather warms, a disastrous flood hits the mainland, forcing LichenClan out of their caves and into the Birch Forest. Once the chaos settles, Yarrowstar meets with the other leaders and Quickstrikes chats with the deputies. RedwoodCland and LichenClan decide to pool together resources and open their borders, while ThistleClan remains hostile.

Before the half-moon, Lilacpaw is summoned to the MoonCave and receives a mysterious message from Coyotecall. She then journeys with Briarfall to meet with the other medicine cats. They are unable to speak with StarClan with the lagoon flooded, but Lilacpaw shares her message with Orchidshade.

At the Gathering, Yarrowstar strengthens his alliance with Finchstar by thanking them for their hospitality. He also announces the creation of the LichenClan council—a committee to help restore peace and balance. Shortly after, they return home to their shores, no longer needing RedwoodClan's help.

Barred from the council, Lilacpaw angrily requests membership to a distraught Briarfall. They then attend the half-moon, where they discover Orchidshade is missing. Briarfall wakes after her ominous vision to find Lilacpaw missing, who has left to speak with Coyotecall. Briarfall confronts her.

Sensing tension, Yarrowstar reminds the other Clans about LichenClan's commitment to peace at the Gathering.

A mysterious rogue is found wandering LichenClan's shores.

The hostile wild cats succumb to the Great Waters. The cats who follow Tide become the tribe.  The tribe cats make South Twin Island their new home, and under Tide, the tribe learn to listen to the earth and honor the natural world.

Wide-spread disease infects the tribe for the first time. The current teller, Holly, leads the sick to a secluded peninsula on the island. This becomes the sick rock, and due to their isolation, the rest of the tribe is saved.

Whitefish, the current leader, reads a sign from the lake that foretells a horrid flood. He listens and leads his clan to the highest point on the island, deep within the hills. The tribe evades the flood waters and everyone survives. However, the land that once connected the island submerges under the flood and turns them into tiny islands.

Two-leg trollers and hunters flock to South Twin Island in an effort to capitalize on its natural resources. The tribe is forced from the tribe stone and into the forest for the season in order to avoid the two-legs. The island proves to be a poor commercial boon and the two-legs leave. Nonetheless, some tribe members are killed by two-leg hunters.

The tribe enters the decade in a careful state of fear. Since the Apostle Islands are on track to become a National Lakeshore, tourism has increased tenfold on the lake. While the two-legs do not dock on South Twin Island, the tribe still errors on the side of caution due to the brethren they had lost previously.

As the decade comes to an end, the tribe suffers another serious parasitic infection. Several tribe members and to-bes are lost to the disease. The current teller, Sky, then discovers catmint on the island and the disease is eradicated.

The Apostle Islands is declared a National Lakeshore, and for a second time, South Twin Island falls victim to two-leg interference. The two-legs attempt to turn the island into another campgroud, due to their success on the neighboring Rocky Island. However, the high tides and congested forests prove too difficult to create a successful tourist attraction. The project is abandoned.

Sky directs her tribe to stay away from the abandoned two-legs contraptions, and a portion of the island becomes forbidden for a decade.

A tornado touches down on the mainland and surges dangerous lake water onto the shoreline. A few tribe members are lost to the fast currents, including the new teller, Goldenrod. The tom did not listen to the earth, and he was drowned as a result. His young to-be, Fawn became the new teller, and she became one of the most notorious tellers on the island for her efforts to rebuild the tribe.

The abandoned two-leg campground is lost to the flood and washed out into the lake. The entire island becomes accessible to the tribe once more.

The tribe enters the new decade under the leadership of Fawn. The she-cat is able to rebuild the tribe and restore them to their naturalistic roots. Due to the horrific waters from the last flood, their burial grounds are moved to a much more elevated island. This becomes the Stone that Never Ends.

Near the end of the decade, Fawn dies peacefully in her sleep, and her to-be, Black Bear becomes the new teller. Black Bear is a stoic tom and leads the tribe through a horrific drought at the turn of the century.

During the winter, the prey-hunters are unable to find any sufficient prey to properly feed the tribe. Black Bear sacrifices his share of prey to the tribe and eventually dies from starvation. Before his death, he tells his to-be, Rain, to share his body with the clan, so they can survive. Rain horrifically obliges, but disguises his body, and the tribe never learns the truth.

Despite their efforts, other tribe members fall victim to the harsh cold and lack of food, and only a few make it to the next season alive. This period is donned the Great Hunger.

Rain is then appointed as the new teller and works to rebuild the tribe, albeit with tremendous guilt for her dark secret.

Since the Great Hunger, the tribe has grown considerably and increased in numbers. Near the end of the season, Rain takes on the next teller of the tribe, which is a young tom named Jaw of the Wolf. He is an exceptionally smart tom with a knack for herbs.

A moon later, a tom named Lark is exiled from the tribe, because he murders another tribe member named Owl. He is the first tribe member in recent memory to kill another tribe-mate. He is banished from the island and never seen again.

Near the end of the season, both the head prey-hunter and stone-guard retire from their ranks and two new cats are assigned to the position. Moth Guided by Fireflies becomes the new head prey-hunter, and Talon of the Owl Who Hunts at Dawn becomes the new head stone-guard.

Before the season comes to a close, sickness falls over the tribe and Jaw of the Wolf unexpectedly dies. Catmint no longer seems to cure the disease. Distraught, Rain receives a vision and appoints a young prey-hunter named Creek as her next to-be.

The sickness continues into the new season, and as the warmer air arrives, Rain dies with it. Her unexpected death leaves Creek as the new teller.

As the sickness leaves, the tribe slowly recovers and enters the summer months ready to rebuild.

Toward the end of summer, new to-bes are welcomed into the tribe as full tribe members.

On a recent prey-hunter trek, Creek discovers the herbs have been destroyed and did not regrow over the summer.

However, as the cold weather returns, the same sickness spreads across the tribe and infects them in deadly numbers. A cure has yet to be discovered.

Creek loses his first life to the sickness and delivers an omen to n adolescent to-be, Hemlock. The omen sends Hemlock on a trek across a hidden sandbar and to another island. There he meets the clan cats for the first time in centuries.

Hemlock brings the Redwoodclan warriors back to the tribe, and their medicine cat, Orchidshade, treats them with her limited supply of cat-mint. However, the clan cats are too late, as Swoop loses his life to the sickness and joins the Tribe of Endless Life. The redwood warriors vow to assist the tribe and leave.

A coyote attacks a tribe hunting patrol and Cardinal faces injuries from the attack.

The island is ravaged by a severe thunderstorm in the middle of the night, so Talon takes a patrol of stone-guards to clean up and rebuiled the island.

After a skirmish with Thistleclan warriors, the redwood warriors and medicine cat return to the tribe with more herbs. The clan and tribe cats share traditions and parts of their culture with each other.

Orchidshade teaches Iris, the teller's sister, how to tend and care for the lungwort, so they can grow it themselves.

A band of stone-guards patrol the island in an effort to combat coyote numbers after a bountiful pup season.

A Thistleclan patrol is sent across the sandbar to threaten the tribe. However, Firfoot, the patrol leader, realizes quickly that the tribe is harmless.

During late leaf-fall, a violent storm descends upon the island, completely destroying the sandbar path. The tribe is once again cut off from the clan cats.

Before the season ends, a second wave of sickness falls upon the tribe. However, with the lungwort given to them by Redwoodclan, the tribe is able to combat it with few deaths.

Across the lake, the tribe enters the new season recovering from the sickness, and with the sandbar completely underwater, they are alone.

The tribe holds a communal funeral to commemorate the tribe-mates they lost over the harsh leaf-bare. Before the ceremony begins, however, Creek receives a disturbing dream about his friends across the lake.

Inferring that his dream is about Redwoodclan, Creek decides to send a patrol of stone-guards and prey-hunters across the destroyed sandbar, lead by his head-prey-hunter, Sunrise, so they can warn them about his dream.

Sunrise leads the patrol across the lake, consisting of strong swimmers, and is met by a Redwoodclan patrol on the other side. They are taken back to their camp so they can meet with Finchstar.

Unbeknowst to the tribe patrol, however, Creek suddenly dies after the patrol is sent off. Talon discovers him at the tribe stone and hears his final, ominous words. Disturbed, Talon must call together the tribe to announce his death as a heavy fog descends upon the island.

Back on the clan island, Fog starts to receive ominous dreams from Creek, not knowing that his teller is now dead and that the Tribe of Endless Hunting is summoning him to take his place.

Indebted to Redwoodclan, the tribe patrol decides to stay with the clan for a few more sunrises, and Sunrise and Fog both offer to help them fight in the war against Lichenclan.

On the tribe island, a dense fog has covered the land since Creek's mysterious death, making it impossible to find prey, despite the green-leaf weather.

Blackbird is sent to lead a patrol of stone-guards to try and find resources in the northern forest. Unbeknowst to the patrol, a pack of hungry coyotes lurk in the shadows.

Starving, coyotes start to descend upon the tribe cats, attacking them in hopes of a quick and easy meal.

After assiting Redwoodclan in the battle, the tribe patrol returns to home, only to discover the death of their teller, Creek. Fog learns he must become the new teller on his own.

Fog announces his leadership to the tribe and makes the journery to the Stone that Never Ends to receive his four lives. His leadership is met with mixed reviews.

As the season comes to a close and the tribe enters another winter of starvation and unease, dissent starts to unfold within its ranks.

Starvation inches across the tribe island, only worsened by the piling snow and frigid frosts. The tribe cats are also not the only starving animals on the island, but a group of coyotes, strengthened by a heavy pup boon last green-leaf, start encroaching on the tribe cats, killing them as prey.

Fog struggles to gain footing as the new young and inexperienced teller. Many are lost to sickness and coyote attacks during the start of leaf-bare.

Sumac, a long-standing prey-hunter who is wildly respecting, starts casting his disbeliefs upon his tribe-mates, growing weary of Fog's capabilities as his leader. Many are skeptical, but as the tribe's conditions worsen, they start to believe him.

Despite the growing dissent against him, Fog recruits Sunrise and Flame to scout the northern territories, hopeful they can find a way to drive the coyotes from their land and put an end to their ruthless killings.

While Fog is scouting the north, Sumac uses it as an opportunity to climb upon the ancient tribe stone and summon the tribe to him. On the stones, he spreads his message, casting further dissent upon his tribe-mates. He believes Fog is not the rightful teller. Talon must escort him from the stone.

Desperate to prove himself, Fog devises a plan to rid the coyotes from the island, using prescious prey to lead the coyotes to their ultimate demise. But at the last second, the winds shifts and the coyotes descend upon his tribe-mates. A ruthless battle for their lives ensues.

A blood moon ascends over the tribe island following the failed attempt to rid the island of the coyotes. Many tribe-mates see it as a bad omen, a terrible sign of Fog's failing leadership.

Following the blood moon, Sumac calls a meeting for his followers, where he announces his plan to ask Fog to step down as Teller and take his place. Many eagerly await his rise to power.

Near the height of summer, a catastrophic storm strikes the moorland, it's grasses already dried from the drought. Fire catches and decimates the island. Many lives are lost to the flames, including Fog's, whose body is lost to the lake.

Sumac rises from the ashes to take his place as the new Teller of the Tribe of Floating Stones, but his leadership is met with mixed reactions as he introduces strict rules to ensure the tribe's future over the upcoming leaf-bare.

Unbeknowst to his Tribe, Fog washes ashore confused and disorientated on ThistleClan's shores, where a patrol finds him and takes him back to camp.

Under Sumac's new rule, many tribe-mates push their luck by stealing prey without permission, feeding their guard friends, or by challenging Sumac's. Varying punishments are dealt to keep the tribe in line in an effort to survive the winter.

To prove his place as the rightful Teller, Sumac travels to the Stone that Never Ends to receive his four lives from the Tribe of Endless Hunting.

After declaring his position as the ‘rightful teller’, Sumac journeys with Talon and Sunrise to the Stone that Never Ends to receive nine lives. He is denied by the Tribe of Endless Life.

The tribe is hit with the same blizzard that blighted the islands, and on a  patrol in search for food, Sumac leads Sun, Rain, and Icicle into the raging storm. The cats become lost and separated. Sun dies in the cold. Imprisoned in ThistleClan, Fog uses the storm to escape to his friends in RedwoodClan.

Tension grows in the tribe as Stone-Guards are forced to adopt two roles, working as both Stone-Guards and hunting for the clan. Doubling down on rules, Sumac enforces his expectations with a new and terrifying vigor. Tribe mates who contest are punished, sent to solitary confinement. Sumac demotes Talon and elects Laurel.

When the floods hits, the tribe is not as affected. The mainland avoids rising waters while the floating isles are completely or partially underwater. The prisoners at Rock Where All Wounds Heal search for higher land. More cats are banished into isolation. Meanwhile on the main island, Fog announces his plans to return to the tribe at their full-moon gathering, and begins the journey home.

Sumac goes to the isles to address a rising revolt. Gloom is murdered.

The sandbar reappears, bridging the tribe to the main island. Fog travels with Cardinal and Dewcloud. Together they go to the Tribe Stone to challenge Sumac for Fog's position as Teller.
