Okay so now, for all of you interested in the details of the story I tried to show in this PMV, here's a recap:
As Fogsoul became the next leader of LakeTribe, his mental sickness was getting worse and worse. He was having a hard time controlling his emotions and actions, often bursting into a rage for a mere reason. The only thing that was able to keep him calm was his mate - Honeyleaf. She was always supportive of him and was trying her best to stop him from doing something he would regret later. She was also carrying his kits, which made her even more important to Fogsoul.
Honeyleaf trusted him, that he would never hurt her, which is why she was never afraid of standing up to him to defend her tribemates. But one time Fogsoul had crossed the line. As his sickness was getting worse and worse and the voices in his head grew stronger, he started to believe the Tribes were in great danger. To prevent it from happening, he wanted to unite the Tribes and take control of all of them along with changing their beliefs (up to this time the Tribes believed in The Great Spirits that were taking care of the ones who passed away). He shared his worries and ideas with Honeyleaf but she didn't agree with him, scared of what he was becoming. And that made him furious. The voices became stronger again and he couldn't resist himself this time. He tried to hurt Honeyleaf but stopped himself at the last moment. But it was enough and Honeyleaf couldn't forgive him anymore.
As his mate left him, Fogsoul had nothing left to prevent him from executing his plans. The sickness got the better of him.
Not long after Honeyleaf ran away to hide in ForestTribe, she gave birth to Nettle and Nightingale, to whom she told their father died before they were born. But Nettle, after becoming Nettlepaw, found out the truth and was easily manipulated by Fogsoul. Nettlepaw became Fogsoul's spy in the ForestTribe to make it easier for him to take over. Eventually, they succeeded, Fogsoul became the leader of all three Tribes combined into one - The Tribe of Starry Night and renamed himself Fogstar. That night he also appointed Nettlepaw as Nettlesong - his successor.
But Nettlesong over time started to notice how wrong her father, and therefore she, was, by doing all those things to the Tribes. She was torn but she knew it was already too late to stop Fogstar.
One night, Fogstar asked Honeyleaf to go out with him. She didn't have much choice but she was also hoping that he might've changed and he wanted to apologize for everything. She wasn't entirely wrong but Fogstar, being in that worrying state, was unpredictable. In a whirl of emotions, he killed Honeyleaf, the only cat he ever cared for so much. And even though he was so blinded by his illness, he couldn't stop the racking guilt which was beginning to maul him from the inside.
