Story summary: Hoarchaser looks up to Sablewren, his new "mentor". He learns how to fight off dangerous animals and other cats, but when it comes to real enemy - his confidence fails him.
(also i initially used "Digital silence" for this video, maybe I'll upload that version one day!)

edgy orange cat is back. ten times edgier than before
Hoarchaser gets to the camp to see his older brother return deep in genuine grief. Now feeling like a stranger in the Boundless Folk, without his mother, Hoarchaser decides to leave, scared of what Firewatcher could do to him. He dreams of taking revenge when he grows older, and joins a group of former kittypets.

Young Hoarchaser leaves the camp for a stroll with his mother, only for her to meet a deadly fate in the dog teeth. And his older brother Firewatcher has something to do with it.

never treat your kids like this
Short story summary:
The animatic starts with Birdpaw failing on her first training session. She isn't interested in continuing training, until one day she sees her mentor Rainsting returning in the camp with prey.
Birdpaw tries more, but fails anyway; and confronts Rainsting for not even let her try. On a hunting session, she catches a bird feathers, and this little win inspires Birdpaw to start training more.
The video ends with Birdpaw's first "win": she managed to knock her mentor off her paws for the first time.
srsly never treat your kids this way.

- What got changed?
- Now it's a Rainsting's ceremony, not Birdheart's one. I realized that there were many major mistakes in the timeline, making it impossible for Birdheart getting her warrior rank in autumn.
now its a whole minute of Birdheart being the greatest apprentice ever. Great job, Birdheart.
- The headshot icons and emotions were changed to fit the new designs.
- Slight changes in pixel animations.
- W H I S K E R S
I always dreamed about making a fake gameplay video, and finally did.

It's the biggest project I've ever made, and I'm incredibly happy to finally show it! Thank you so much for watching it ❤
took me five months of everyday work to complete, there's nothing human left in me
It's been really long since I started drawing it, so some shots may vary in render quality; sorry for it!

Story:
With "Froggyheart's lullaby" showing the reasons and "Bird song" - what follows, "July" is about the results of this part of Birdheart's story.
The opening scene is the death of Froggyheart: Birdheart is determined to move on, as her clan still needs her, and this is what Froggyheart would want her to do. She helps to bury the body. However, after some time, the healer Blacksilk notices that Birdheart started having serious problems with coordination of movement, and finds out that due to the stress caused by the death of her best friend, Birdheart's head trauma made itself known, and Birdheart's eyesight became even worse than before.
Blacksilk asks her to retire, but Birdheart is reluctant to do so. Her whole life has been built on being useful to the clan cats, and Blacksilk's request is perceived by her as an attempt of ShadowClan to get rid of her.
Birdheart becomes increasingly distant from her clanmates and begins to avoid them. One of the apprentices named Padpaw starts mocking her, and seeing this, Birdheart starts to feel like the whole clan is gossiping about her. She compares their voices to the singing of kingfishers.
Birdheart's weird behavior gradually turns her into an outcast. In her dreams, Birdheart is haunted by nightmares of hundreds of kingfishers chasing her away, and when awake, Padpaw taunts her for Froggyheart's death.
Slowly after, Padpaw in Birdheart's eyes begins to acquire bird features; and Birdheart, frightened by her previous nightmare, decides to get rid of her before it's too late. Birdheart stalks and kills the apprentice on the territory border, where Padpaw was waiting for her brother from different clan to arrive.
Padpaw's death only made it worse. Birdheart seemed to get away with murder, but then she notices Blacksilk being suspicious about her. Her mental problems start to develop into physical.
At one moment Birdheart wakes up and sees a kingfisher - not in a dream, but in reality. She flees from ShadowClan territory, where, confronted with her worst nightmares, she dies.
(some events of the video are portrayed via character eyes and might be at odds with what really happened)

Lore:
Birdkit is very ambitious for her future: she wants to become a great, respected warrior of Shadowclan. Her friend Froggykit, however, is afraid that her friend's ambitions might get in the way of their friendship, and warns her about it.
Later, Birdkit goes blind after gaining a head trauma when falling off the Clanpile. Desperate, she estrangers herself from Froggypaw, who got her apprentice rank. Even after Birdkit got an apprentice rank herself, she still haven't make up with Froggypaw — and her mentor Rainsting noticed that. Rainsting gives Birdpaw an advice, telling a story of how she lost the ones she loved the same way Birdpaw did.
After that, realizing she was wrong, Birdpaw asks Froggypaw for forgiveness.

This MAP concept... My love. I couldn't stop myself from joining it :D
This map part features my another Dark Forest character - Rosewater. She's an old lady with a cool hat, who died in a terrible accident. Well, was it an accident at all? Who can say.

Edit 18.10.22: some events portrayed there are no longer canon, especially the apprentice's death details!
i'm cringe but i'm free
Story:
The main character is Birdheart, a Shadowclan cat. She's almost blind (her eyesight had critically deteriorated after a trauma), but instead of chosing a medicine cat path, she became a warrior.
For the whole life her only best friend was Froggyheart, who was killed before the events in the video. You can see Birdheart visiting her grave in the beginning.
After the death of her friend, Birdheart becomes all alone. The grief starts to affect her warrior duties, and clanmates notice it - especially one apprentice. During the animatic she is presented as a bird, chasing Birdheart over. She mocks not only Birdheart, but Froggyheart too.
Slowly, Birdheart loses her mind. She stalks and violently murders an apprentice, drowning in the river. But Birdheart quickly regrets that irascible act, when the bird contunies to haunt her in nightmares.
