The four colonies have lived peacefully for many moons, avoiding conflict and even helping each other out during hard times. This peace cannot last forever, though, and their alliances are broken when Shadow Colony is accused of trespassing on Sun Colony territory and antagonizing them.
With tensions rising and a war looming on the horizon, several members of Shadow Colony begin having strange dreams; visions of the forest in flames and a red, starless sky. One cat named Scattered recieves an ominous message in his: "When stars burn and the sky sheds its blood, a shadow will rise with more power than the sun."
It is up to Shadow Colony to decide if this shadow will bring a new light to the forest, or if it will smother them in its darkness.
