#Also StarClan looking at Tall Shadow 'um this is partially your fault' die. just die again StarClan

[bonefall]

how the fuck did clear sky get into cat heaven. he literally:

-killed multiple cats (or attempted to)

-disrespected starclan (the whole drown the stars in blood thing)

-try to start a whole war

-threw out his crippled brother

-tried to kill bumble (later the god of speech)

-and a dozen more that i can’t think off the top of my head.

it would be cool for an au possibly where one-eye dies but never forms the dark forest (like he doesn’t believe in religion thus never makes cat hell) and instead clear sky is the first one dammed and the first cat to walk the dark forest. this could be a great set up for later arcs where maybe in the distant future we see the dark forest fighting starclan (again) but this time it’s not tigerstar and firestar, it’s clear sky and gray wing

StarClan is flawed from its inception. It's the ancestors of all Clan cats, not just the ones from the Forest Four.

And that included Clear Sky, founder of SkyClan, cat who invented and established borders and war tactics. It's him and his followers who set the battle culture of the Clans that would come after, a snowball that would only grow larger and larger until it reached the state we see in TPB.

StarClan is the way that it is because of him. Him and cats like him are what encouraged StarClan to develop into the reactionary, self-righteous entity that it is, doing what they believe is right to 'protect' the Clans while still thinking their ego is something that must be coddled.
