the code of Narcissus
-:[/center]
Moons ago, before the great clan split into four, a female was banished from their reaches. Her name was Daffodilpool. She was banished for murdering an apprentice; though she was always claimed that she had never done this. Her story was different. Daffodilpool claimed that, while hunting, she had discovered her sister Laburnumheart at the scene of the crime. Daffodilpool was the unfortunate cat discovered over the apprentice's body after Laburnumheart fled. Due to this, she was outcast. Daffodilpool followed the clan for moons, but eventually they drove her away with such a beating that she became crippled, her hind legs useless and lame. Daffodilpool turned in on herself, her kind nature gone. She became twisted and mad with revenge, changing her name to simply Daffodil to expel herself from the clans that hated her so terribly. Daffodil lived alone in an isolated cave, eating only the bats which she caught in its reaches. The clans began to dub her Narcissus, only a darker version of her former name. Tales surrounded the she-cat, which she fed with twisted vigour.
Some moons later, two reckless apprentices ventured into the cave of Narcissus. Mintpaw and Fleetpaw discovered something which daffled them. The mouth of the cave, after several pawsteps, was sealed by rock. Strange markings surrounded the blockage, markings that looked like sets of pawprints yet... Different. Now danger threatens the clans, and in their isolated land the cave of Narcissus is their only escape route.
