(it's not no longer you)
While my knowledge of the current series is extremely limited(gained only from youtube videos..) I decided to listen to an audiobook of Ivypool's Heart and felt inspired to try designing some of the main characters! They could definitely use some work but I had fun!!
-SPOILERS-
So I finished it and here are my thoughts!!
Moonpaw: literally everything about her character is so interesting to me. All the stuff with her dead sister and how she doesn't seem to realize the full impact of her actions is a very cool concept!! It almost reminds me of the collector from the owl house. Can't wait to see where they go with her!
Tawnypelt: I love her and her stupid crush on Crowfeather, I hope it becomes canon, please Erin's please it would be so funny. Other than that I actually enjoyed a lot of her chapters and idk why? They were just more active than the other two I think. Also poor Tawny, almost all of her friends are dead and her son keeps disrespecting her when she's just trying to support her grandson πTawnypelt deserves best grandma award for helping out Birchfeather
Leafstar: honestly I'm with her clanmates here, she needed to step down especially after the badger incident. I feel bad for her but its clear that it's time for retirement. Everytime she dreamed of the gorge or Echosong I just got so sad, like she lost her home and her best friend it's so depressing. But I think her tendency to focus on the past and not the future is why she needed to give up leadership. I'm glad she realized it herself instead of getting fully impeached. Also Hawkstar!!! I'm so excited, Hawkwing will be SUCH a headstrong leader, I hope him and Tigerstar get into arguments at every gathering bc you know they would
Other thoughts:
It sounds like the clans might have to make another journey because of twolegs? Which will be interesting. I can't tell if I like the idea of that or not; on the one hand, it's a repeat of tnp, on the other, it could be a fun thing to read. I do think that contrasting Tawny/Crow who were horrified at the idea of making another journey, with the younger cats who don't seem to care much about a potential move was very smart. They don't really realize the impact behind it- obviously because they weren't there. So idk it could be a good idea, it could be an absolute garbage fire, we'll see
I'm gonna try to continue documenting my thoughts as I go through this series! I think it'll be fun to look back on when it's over :D
when they got character staring into their reflection and seeing someone else at the function
I'm very excited to start reading it :D
bylers anytime something even slightly significant happens:
just finished reading Ivypool's heart and I thought it was pretty good! I actually think grief is something that warrior cats usually handles well (at least in super editions), and Ivy's journey throughout this book was believable and emotional. I liked how the group, save Whistlepaw, was basically a bunch of grieving cats learning to let go alongside their journey.
Also lore is real now??? Which is cool?? I appreciate having a less horrifying explanation for what happens to cats after they fade (rather than just "they're gone forever whoops") I also loved the story of Stormclan and the wildcats, I thought I was very unique for a warriors book
Overall I really enjoyed it. I love Ivypool so that helped, but I think its a way better super edition than a lot of the ones we've gotten recently and the lore makes warriors afterlife canon more understandable
