"By then I had fallen in love with one of the wildcats who had rescued us. His name was Bound Hunt. I was worried my feelings for him were just gratitude because he had rescued us, but gradually I realized that they were something more."

Bound Hunt is a wildcat tom.

Galestar is a black-and-white she-cat.

notes:

- Spouses of each other, parents of their three kits. Galestar is the ex-spouse of Stripestar, and parents of their three kits.

Ivypool's Heart/Thriftear's Heart

These are very rough notes at the moment

The questing cats are: Thriftear and Needleclaw from Thunderclan (Needle snuck along), Dovewing from Shadowclan, Icewing from Riverclan, Whistlepaw of Windclan, and Wrenflight of Skyclan.

Whistlepaw feels incredibly guilty about going, as she doesn't want to leave Frostpaw. But, she also feels guilty about the thought of NOT going, as she just went on an adventure with Frostpaw, Shadowsight, and Nightheart.

Beach and Slate are not Sister born, but from Stormclan's leftovers. They're all that remains of the regular cat part of Stormclan. Jury's out on if they're GaleStripe kin, but leaning to yes.

More interactions with those 'zoo' animals. This one's gonna be heartbreaking, not gonna lie.

THE QUEST IS A SECRET. This takes place during 5th book of ASC. Mistystar is dead, Leafstar is dead, Brambleclaw is dead, Tigerstar has been voted out, and Harestar is barely still breathing. The Clans are in turmoil.

The Wildcats have a different naming system, kits are given names based purely on appearance at first, then their names evolve as they grow up.

Minor tweak. The River Of Spirits only shows that all afterlife are connected, but that there have been cats to slip out of the River. No one knows what happens to them, but Stalk Purr has theories!

Whistlepaw is wrestling with a LOT of guilt. She's got a lot of weight on her shoulders, and every choice for her feels like the wrong one.

Needleclaw is coming along out of desire to connect with Thriftear, who's been avoiding her for ages.

Dovewing is stressed out, as her family has just had to take refuge in Thunderclan, and she wants to keep her beloved niece safe.

Icewing is grief stricken but a bit stony bout it, her home having fallen apart with seemingly no way to get better. She is also still grieving over lost family: her mate Mintwhisker, and her lost kits: Grasspelt, Pricklekit and, of course, Beetlewhisker.

Beetlewhisker's fate is up for grabs. He may appear during The Last Hope, he may appear during TBC, or he may FINALLY appear during Beyond The Stars: Moonlight Edition. He may get a similar fate to Bristlefrost, he may not. That is up in the air.

Wrenflight is struggling massively in Skyclan. She's more than happy to represent it, and loves giving her journey buddies fun little Slyclan facts, but she feels like she doesn't fit in with Skyclan. Sure, she had the privilege of being Leafstar's granddaughter through her dad Harrybrook, but her own issues and lack of social skills leave her feeling more like a loner in a big crowd.

As for Thriftear, our book's point of view, she is... A mess. She snaps, she's on edge, she's so, so much like Ivypool and Blossomfall, the way they can be when stressed out. She's put pressure on herself to be a perfect daughter and Thunderclan warrior. Flipclaw left for the Tribe of Falling Snow, Plumstone left for Gullswoop (and then almost got killed for it) and her mothers are struggling with their upset.

They're holding themselves together, trying to move past the grief, but Thriftear is holding in all her feelings until they leak out in firey bursts, usually at the wrong cat.

She snaps at Fuzzyleaf for stepping on her tail, fur bristling as she snarls in his face in the middle of camp...

Because of this, she agrees that maybe, MAYBE, time away from Thunderclan could help her out.

Stormclan's ancestors are indeed reunited with Starclan, which gives Thriftear some hope that a faded spirit could be reformed... But how? She tries to get Needleclaw and Rootspring to connect with the River Of Spirits, and figure out a way to find lost cats.

The book ends on a bittersweet, but hopeful note. Sadly, however, as ASC ends the way it does, it's more a spark in the darkness.
