Folktales

The Hopping Crow

The Hopping Crow is a folktale most commonly told in BreezeClan. The Hopping Crow is a creature that takes the form of a one-legged crow. It is never seen flying, only hopping from place to place. Legends say that cats who hunt on solo patrols are likely to meet The Hopping Crow, and that those who do must not lock eyes with it. It is sent away by saying out loud that there is no food for the Crow, and that the food it seeks is behind it. Those who look into the Hopping Crow's eyes are said to be doomed to wander the Dark Forest forever after death.
