At the edge of the forest that grows on the island lies the Shiro Clan Camp. Times are still hard with the cats still getting used to the terrain. A few rocks piled together with open holes make the warrior and apprentice dens, while the leader and deputy dens are in a wall of bramble. Elders live in a hole beneath a palm tree, and the nursery is next to it in more rocks. The medicine cat den is in an old fox den. They all gather at a strangely shaped rock, which they call "Pawstep Rock" because it looks as though cats have walked on it before.
