The Plains (locked)
Summary: The survivors have been traveling the strange flat lands for nearly a moon's time now and known prey has been lacking.

Shelter (locked)
Summary: The survivors prepare to gather more supplies now that they've had some rest. While Bloodmane and Sunsleaf gather healing herbs and ClearIce goes fishing, a hunting party is gathered to hunt long-runners. The hunting party consists of the wolf pack, Branchwalker, BrightStar, Dawngazer, Eveninglight, Riv and Silvereyes. Longsong stays behind at the shelter to watch the cubs (Quicksand and Lizardstalker) as well as see to the injured (One-Edge, Childwolf and Treebreeze(injured?)).
While the hunters get caught in a stampeed, those back at the shelter hear a strange noise. They go out to investigate, only to find a blue crystal that feels like it has been Shaped by an elf. One-Edge follows the elfin tracks that lead away from the crystal, but they lead nowhere. Longsong keeps the crystal.
Back at the hunt, it turns out the stampeed was caused by strangers also hunting the long-runners. The hunters introduce themselves as members of the Children of the Oaks. With the help of the strangers, the hunters get help moving their injured back to camp (Riv got caught under a fallen longrunner, Eveninglight fell into a hunting trap and BrightStar got his arm, chest and ribs hurt).
On the way back it turns out Eclipse has been staying with the Children of the Oaks' hunters. The reunion is less than happy. Cloudbird is also found on the way back to the shelter, and that reunion is brief but less hostile.

Year 0, day 27-31 (0.02.24-0.02.28)
The Children of the Oaks (locked)
Summary: The new elves are of great help, though there are a few culture clashes. As the hunters heads back to the shelter they find a wounded and feverish Eveningsky, who has found her way back to the survivors despite her injury. Sunsleaf tends to her and she is soon well enough to travel, with help.
The strangers start leading the survivors back to their tribe's main camp. On the way there they come across another part of the Children of the Oaks - the Branch of Stars - where the survivors meet three other wolf-bloods, Bloodcut, Firecry and Rainblossom. They are all from the now destroyed Holt Riverbench.
As the group begin to close in on the main camp of the Children of the Oaks, an exhausted Haze and Redstreak catch up with them.
Characters: Bloodmane, Branchwalker, ChildWolf, Claw, Dawngazer, Dusk, Eveninglight, Eveningsky, LizardStalker, Longsong, One-Edge, Riv, Sunsleaf
NPCs: Arrow, Claw, Cloudshadow, Clover, Dusk, Firecry, Redfur, Silvermist, Skyflare, Stormcall, Wind
Returning: Eveningsky, Haze, Redstreak
Year 0, day 32 (0.03.01)
The New Turn Feast (locked)
Summary: The survivors are overwhelmed by the huge bonfire, the loud music and the wild dances that the New Turn Feast turn out to entail. The survivors try to blend in, but there are some clashes. For one, Sunsleaf and one of the Children's herbal healers have a strife about how the injured survivors should be treated.
Characters: Bloodcut, Bloodmane, Branchwalker, Cloudbird, Dawngazer, Eclipse, Eveninglight, Eveningsky, Haze, Quicksand, Rainblossom, Redstreak, Riv, Silvereyes, Sunsleaf, Treebreeze

Year 0, day 33 (0.03.02)
Day of Knowing (locked)
Summary: The survivors are less than pleased to find that the Children of the Oaks are away during the day, but they adjust. Some scores are settled as Waterfall and Sunsleaf make truce. One-Edge's bond Softpaws gives birth to a litter of cubs in one of the storage tents, which causes quite a commotion. Then the wolf Copperears smells something on the wind and Dawngazer rides out to investigate. She finds Greyspear and Squirrel who've recently met the wanderer Sureshot.
While she is away the survivors are called to introduce themselves to the Children of the Oaks officially. Longsong, in his role as Lore Keeper, performs the Howl of the Chiefs that sums up the history of the Tall Tree Holt. The revelation that the survivors share blood with their bonds isn't well received by many of the Children of the Oaks.
The survivors withdraw, cautious around the Childen of the Oak now. They discuss their own need for leadership and some survivors suggest Dawngazer for new chief since she's taken on a leader role during much of their flight (which Dawngazer herself thinks is a mad idea).

Reunion (locked)

Unbeknownst to the survivors, Gale has been tracking Squirrel and Greyspear. He sends and Dawngazer rides out to meet him as well. While she is gone this time, Sureshot is introduced to the group and it turns out he knows Sunsleaf. She is not happy to see him. Gale's reunion with the tribe is a much happier one.
A Howl for the Dead is discussed among the survivors. Meanwhile, the Children of the Oaks' chiefs are in a discussion of their own, regarding the wolf-blooded strangers. Their First Chief Keensight decides the wolf-bloods can stay, but that no one needs to interact with them if they do not wish to. This "weak" decision is met by some uproar and a chief's challenge is issued, to be acted out the following day.
