It all started many many moons ago, in a time of extreme uncertainty and a decade of war, famine, flood, and fire. Suddenly StarClan seemed to have disappeared altogether, the skies suddenly turned a sickly black and brown, and thunder and fire rained from the skies, poisoning and killing everything in its path, until destruction took over and completely wrecked the landscape.

Whose fault would this be?

The twolegs.

The twolegs had fought and fought with each other until they resulted to horrid chemicals, of which they didn't even know the extent of the power of, and enialated each other with. The Clans, however, were caught in the middle. When the bombs fell like a horrid rain of death, nothing seemed to survive, and the landscape was warped forever more.

But the story does not end here.

Almost three hundred and sixty moons later, a mother cat wanders along the landscape that had once been a battlefield. The trees had grown back, the plants recovering, and prey returning. A stream was becoming clear again, the lake beginning to show the sparkling pebbles hidden at the bottom. Konara Forests was reliving, starting over again.

The queen laid down in a soft patch of clover, and gave birth to three kits. One was black and white like his father, the next was a calico like her mother, but the third-- the third was different.

A pattern on his coat like that of a tuxedo cat, but the colors were all wrong. There were dark patches of navy blue, and patches of, almost neon, ice blue. When the odd little tom opened his eyes, they were a bright lemon yellow, unlike the leaf green and dark amber of his siblings.

He would grow up to fulfill a destiny like no other, being chosen of the three to round up other strangely painted felines, join them together, help them remember their ancestors, but begin the Clans anew. This tom would be named Timefire, as it was his strong, undeterring heart and belief in StarClan that drove him to the ends of the earth, to bring back his future clanmates and rivals, to rebuild the forests those before him had padded on, to let Konara Forests be reborn.

And StarClan's gift to him was eight extra lives, so he could continue to help the Clans as needed. Timefire became Timestar. He ended up leading a band of old, forgotten friends from before memory, and fierce, fearless warriors that prowled the night like he did. They called themselves TwilightClan, and he became their leader. Although TwilightClan has earned a reputation of war and fierce, almost savage ways, Timestar has only fought when neccessary, and did his best to keep the Clan under control. Now the borders have settled down, and there is peace at last between the four very very different cats.

But why are cats such strange colors, everything from pink and purple to lime green and neon orange?

What is going on?

Well, whatever chemicals and elements the twolegs had up their sleeve, it's affecting the forests.

Cats are being born with strange, unnatural coat and eye colors, supernatural advantages, and something else hidden deep within the minds of those very few who still remember the days of endless night. Something is not right, and though the forests and the Clans are being rebuilt, redone, relived, there is still a dark storm on the horizon, mysterious voices in the twilight and dark of night.

Something is coming.

Soon.

Will you be the one to forecast this coming doom, the one to warn those you love and those you don't, for the sake of the Clans, for the sake of life as we know it?

Or will you be at the heart of it all, seeking revenge for an ancient crime, not stopping your reign of rage until it's too late?

Listen to the whispers on the wind, to the voices in the twilight, for they are the key to our future...if we will have one.


Think you're up for the challenge?

If so, brave the winds and the rain, and face the ominous horizon.

MEMBER OF THE MONTH:

Congratulations to Shadowfeather for winning the MOTM for July 2009!
Shadowfeather hasn't been here long, but that doesn't mean she isn't awesome. Contributing to the roleplay is always appreciated at Konara Forests, but she goes above and beyond with her graphic shop (full of lovely items might I add.) It seems everyone else thinks so too; I get tons of PM's every day requesting to send payment to her in exchange for a lovely signature. Keep up the great work Shadowfeather!

CHARACTER OF THE MONTH:


Spottedtail, played by Mai, is not the average social butterfly; quiet but friendly and gentle, she has won her way into the heart of Timestar, as well as her four beautiful kits. The most experienced of the Chosen Four, she boldly stood up to share her knowledge of the Clans with the StarClan Spirit, providing a key link in learning the history of the Clans themselves. Here's to you, Spottedtail!

THREAD OF THE MONTH:
