THE BEFORE Far way from mankind's prying eyes lay a forest deep. There lived many animals, some big, some small. The most populated, however, were the canines. Wolves and coyotes - and hybrids of the two - took charge of the forest. They had decided that it was best for every animal for that to happen. The other creatures agreed. Eventually, though, the leaders started to fall out with each other due to their vast differences. It started as trivial disagreements, then arguments, then full out battle and bloodshed. One of the most influential leaders of the time, Leaf the coyote, was killed by his once faithful best friend, River, a wolf. This stirred up much worse fighting. Until one coyote decided to change it. Pine, a solemn and pessimistic canine, found a way to stop the fighting forever. He invited three animals - two wolves, River and Glacier, and another coyote, Petal - to a peace meeting. He gave a choice to them. They could continue fighting, and risk their own lives and that of their loved ones, or split up into different packs in separate places of the forest. It was an offer that no one could refuse. So they chose their territories one by one. Pine, the one who came up with this idea, chose a dense forested area for his Aspenpack. Glacier chose the high mountains for his territory, Frozenpack. Petal decided for her pack to be called Blossompack and reside in the meadow. Finally, River, who masked her bloodthirstiness with fake enthusiasm, chose a river - her namesake - and named it Lilypack. It was like so that the four packs of the forest were formed. The leaders of the packs went to the Outside lands, a dangerous area, and found abandoned and orphaned pups, adopting them into the packs. They seemed in a safe time for now, but that was just the beginning. AGE ONE (current era, ongoing!)
