prologue

For generations, the dark forest cats have lived in despair. But they plan to end their suffering with a stone that can transfer the dead into the world of the living.

BerryPaw is an apprentice of Shadowclan. His family often looks down on him due to being small, so you could call him the runt of the litter. This leaves the young apprentice with a hunger to prove himself, and one night, he meets a cat that promises to help him do just that.
