| Tribe of Mountain Dreams |
| Mountain Dreams
Silhouetted by the sun’s rosy pink and peach rays is a small grove of Weeping Cherry Trees, the hidden camp of the Tribe of Mountain Dreams. Towering trees block out the harsh winds of the surrounding territory, yet cool, less harsh winds pass through the trees branches, cooling the camp. The grove, located at the base of a towering mountain, is only the ‘entrance’ to the camp. The camp itself is located in the mountain, only accessible by a small set of carved steps leading up to a barely visible hole. This hole leads to a dark tunnel, only penetrable by cat’s eyes, which branches off into various chambers.
The largest chamber is really a circular dome, the ceiling just the sky. In the center of the stone is where the DreamStone rests, the mythical stone that glows different shades, varying from a soft pink to a soft peach. The DreamStone is the way of the Tribe of Mountain Dreams cats’ way of speaking with the Tribe of Endless Hunting. The chamber is sacred, only permitting entrance to the Tribe-Healer and a few chosen cats selected by the Tribe-Healer though, on certain occasions such as assigning to-bes to mentors or to-bes moving up ceremonies are when all the Tribe cats are permitted to enter.
Another chamber, farther away from the DreamStone’s chamber, is a smaller chamber, but still large. That chamber is known to the Tribe of Mountain Dreams cats as the Realm Palace. This is where the Tribe-Healer of the Tribe calls Tribal meetings. She addresses them from atop the Dream Ledge, a large slab of stone jutting out over a portion of the chamber. Small pieces of wood are stuck to the side; the wood pieces are the ‘steps’ up the ledge, having to be climb by using strength and claw. Off to one side of the Realm Palace is the Prey Stump where the prey that is caught is placed for the cats to eat.
In another chamber is where the Elders sleep. The stone floor is covered with layers of soft moss and feathers for comfort. In a small corner of the chamber is what looks like a Two-leg hand made creation. A long wooden tube extends from a small hole near the ceiling to a large pit, well pond that’s not too deep, just deep enough for a cat to wade in. When it rains, water flows down the tube and into the pond, refilling it. An adjoining chamber is connected to the Elder’s chamber by a small tunnel. The adjoining chamber is where the kit-mothers and their kits reside. Their chamber is similar to that of the Elders’, only the pond is smaller and not as deep which is fed by the same system as the Elders’ pond is fed. Individual nests scatter around the living space, the nests made of twigs from the cherry trees and lined with feathers, moss, and sometimes fur.
Across from the Elders’ and Kit-Mothers’ chambers is the Prey-Hunters’ and Cave-Guards’ Chambers. The floor is covered with a thick layer of moss and only moss. In the center of the chamber is a small pond directly beneath a circular hole; the pond is then fed when it rains and the rain drops into the pond. Nests are, like the Kit-Mothers’ nests, scattered around, though most hug the walls where the rain cannot get to them. There are some ledges jutting out around the chamber, but only the senior Prey-Hunters and Cave-Guards are permitted to sleep there for they are the only ones that know how to get up there. In a smaller adjoining table is where the to-bes sleep. Unlike most of the chambers, the to-bes’ chamber doesn’t have a small pond; they have to use the pond in the Prey-Hunters’ and Cave-Guards’ chamber.
Farther down the tunnel is another chamber, this one larger than most of the other chambers. This chamber belongs to the Tribe-Healer. The floor is spread thick with moss and feathers while a curtain of lichen hangs down of the entrance. A small hole is located in the ceiling which allows the Tribe-Healer to look through when needing to gaze at Endlesspelt, the star path made up of the passed. (It’s basically Silverpelt.) A small circle of water is located near the rear of the den supplied by the same system in most of the dens. A small stone slab is high above the ground which is used by the Tribe-Healer, her head Cave-Guard and Prey-Hunter when they discuss subjects that other cats aren’t permitted to hear. On the right side of the Tribe-Healer’s chamber is where she keeps her herbs. Stone shelves had been carved out when the Tribe-Healer moved in and now the shelves are filled with herbs and other things needed for a Tribe-Healer’s everyday work.

| Weeping Cherry Tree Grove
Keeping the entrance to Mountain Dreams secret is the job of the Weeping Cherry Tree Grove. Towering trees erupt from the lush green grass and let their pink blossom covered branches bend low so that they provide shade; at times the ground is covered with soft pink petals, a joy to young kits when they experience their first outing with their mothers. Peaceful is what most cats think of this place as, and they are often right. In the early morning, the grove is hidden by a light mist, sparkling pink and peach by the sun’s rays.
Though, when the mist clears, training often begins. Cave-guards often take their to-bes out here to start their training – fighting and fending off unwanted predators. The lower branches and the few rocks used for sunning are often used for practice. The grove also has a small (I repeat, SMALL) variety of prey, mainly birds and mice, and it is used by the Prey-Hunters when to-bes are first taught to hunt. And at the base of each tree, under the dipping boughs of these majestic trees, rest the Tribe cats who have gone to forever hunt with those of the Tribe of Endless hunting.

| Eagle Valley
In a wooded clearing to the east of the grove is Eagle Valley. Trees of rowan, oak, birch and many other are scattered throughout the valley; here, prey is plentiful and the more experienced Prey-Hunters and to-bes hunt here due to the fact that eagles nest in the trees. Mice usually make their homes in the roots of the trees, while the squirrels that are lucky to escape the eagles’ grasp are often nestled in small holes in the tree trunks. A bit of sunlight manages to filter down through the tops of the closely bunched trees, but the cats don’t mind one bit; it helps keep eagles at bay.
There’s the occasional bird to be caught, but there aren’t many for they all have been scared away by the eagles. Sometimes, if a Prey-Hunter will wait long enough, they are able to get two pieces of prey for the price of one – the original prey and an eagle. (Good eating tonight! xD) A few rocks are tucked away in the shadows of the forest and a rabbit or two sometimes hides underneath the small openings…But so don’t badgers, so watch out!

| Lake Lily Stream
Lake Lily Stream is a large lake, clear and blue filled with all kinds of fish. Decorative lily pads dot the surface, a home to frogs as well. The lake is deep towards the center, but shallow near the sandy banks; a stream leads off from the lake and flows into the Tribe of Thundering Omens’ territory,
Cats often come here to enjoy some time with others or by themselves. Prey-hunters come to teach their To-Bes how to fish and Cave-Guards will bring their To-Bes to train in scenarios with water. Some herbs grow around the pond, mainly juniper berries, for easy access instead of traveling to the Herb Meadow.

| Border - Abandoned Beast-tracks |
| Border
Old and unused, the Abandoned Beast-tracks are merely the border between the Tribe of Mountain Dreams and the Tribe of Thundering Omens. Lined with rusted metal, the rotten woods rests upon moss covered gravel. The tracks are slightly elevated off the ground; a small tunnel runs through the base, allowing Lake Lily Stream to pass onto the Tribe of Thundering Omens’ territory.
There isn’t a lot of prey at the Abandoned Beast-tracks, in fact, there’s hardly any. Rats mostly hang around the tracks, so the cats from both Tribes try to avoid it as much as possible. Bushes of deathberries that line the Tribe of Mountain Dreams’ side is another reason the cats avoid this place; yet on the other side, the walls are merely covered with moss and a few vines.
