[Faint]

Truly not that long ago, a small group of cats who claimed to be called 'EclipseClan' came upon the land owned by three Clans for as back as anyone can recall. It was the night of a full moon -- a gathering, to be exact. The group approached the Clans, requesting a chunk of land and a permanent home within their ranks. The three leaders denied, none willing to give up precious land to a group of outsiders claiming to be a Clan.

A moon later, EclipseClan approached at the Gathering again, though this time, each warrior was much skinnier. They were starving, the lack of proper land and a decent place to hunt destroying the Clan. Again, they asked for land and a place in their ranks. Through debating, seeing what had become of the poor cats, the three leaders finally agreed. Each would give up a small portion of land until the final result was an equal distribution. StrifeClan and ShatterClan were not too happy about this arrangement, but they, in the end, agreed.

EclipseClan settled into their new territory quickly, becoming highly accepting of outsiders. After all, the other Clans treated them as such, why should they turn away others and sink to the other Clans' level? This, along with quite a few other things, upset the other three Clans.

Seeing their chance, the Tribe stepped forward, offering StrifeClan, AmityClan and ShatterClan a deal. They would form an alliance against EclipseClan, in the end completely driving the Clan from the forest. The four would split the territory equally. With this offer resting on the table, the Tribe returned to their home, planning to come back to the three Clans for their answer in the next half-moon.

With quite a while remaining to ponder this, the Clans go about their lives, EclipseClan oblivious to the possible threat.

This is now moons from the original acceptance of EclipseClan. What will the three leaders of AmityClan, StrifeClan and ShatterClan reply with? Will they take the Tribe up on their offer, removing the nuisance from their territory as well as regaining some land? Or will they turn it down?
