The plot may be subject to change later on.
Many moons ago, in generations long passed the Iceteller of the tribe received a prophecy from the Tribe of Endless Hunting. They told him that
“In countless moons there will be five,
Strangers to this frozen land
To aid you and help keep you alive
Protection from what you don’t understand”
The prophecy was short and Iceteller never managed to figure out what it meant. He didn’t tell the tribe, and he never saw five strange cats. With his death the prophecy was forgotten and never told again. But now the new Iceteller will receive the prophecy, only this time much more urgent. The Tribe of Endless Hunting hasn’t forgotten what they foresaw and are going to make sure that the Tribe of Constant Snow understands the danger.
“Five will come from the lands of heat
With a vast and dangerous force to defeat
Each with a power beyond you belief
They’ll give you forgiveness, and relief
Accept them or your state will be dire
Powers of wind, water, spirit, earth, and fire
In the light of the second full moon
It will be clear what will start so soon
With the arrival of darkness and plight
Only five can stop such a sight”
Iceteller is unsure of what to make of the prophecy, but he knows that whatever it is that happens will not be good. The prophecy made it sound as though the cats could control the elements, but that couldn’t be true. Could it? And this darkness that is spoken of, what could that be?
On the second full moon after the prophecy is received five strange cats are found on the tribe lands. They don’t seem to remember who they are and are very confused. One bright orange, another pure white, a third dark gray, a fourth a brown tabby, and the last a very pale yellow.
The cats are confused, they have lost their memories, but what they do know is that something is following them. It turns out that a group of dark cats, in the sense that they are evil and ruthless, have come from the north, through the Bad Lands. They are searching for new land and an easier life, and they'll shed whatever blood they need to to get this new home.
Some of the evil cats have powers too, they can read minds, and control actions, along with other psychic abilities, but they can't affect the cats with the power to control the elements. When the battle reaches a full-fledged war the newcomer element cats are faced with a choice: flee to survive, or stay and fight with the tribe that took them in. If they stay they could pay with their lives...
