Ivypools Heart - Blog Posts

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

Can’t believe I haven’t seen a single mention yet of that scene where Ivypool steals that guys cheeseburger (edit:) (turns out I misinterpreted a sandwich for a cheeseburger but a burger is just so much funnier)

I've been thinking of StormClan with the release of Ivypool's Heart, and now I'm curious about other possible clan combinations.

So I made a whole list.

I'll try to explain my naming reasons, just know I tried to keep it to the canon vocabulary so they aren't super unique.

ThunderClan

ThunderClan + WindClan - StormClan (the canon one)

ThunderClan + RiverClan - FloodClan (storms + bodies of water result in flash floods, think of Mapleshade's river and the lake in Bramblestar's Storm)

ThunderClan + ShadowClan - StrikeClan (lightning strikes and stealth attacks)

ThunderClan + SkyClan - BranchClan (lightning branches and SkyClan's tree climbing)

WindClan

WindClan + RiverClan - MistClan (water vapor lmao)

WindClan + ThunderClan - StormClan

WindClan + ShadowClan - GustClan (strong winds - this one was a little hard)

WindClan + SkyClan - QuickClan (running and tree climbing - also a hard one)

RiverClan

RiverClan + WindClan - MistClan

RiverClan + ThunderClan - FloodClan

RiverClan + ShadowClan - IceClan (I wanted to do something like AbyssClan or TrenchClan, but it just didnt fit right with warriors vocabulary, so... cold dangerous water)

RiverClan + SkyClan - DriftClan (drift wood lol)

ShadowClan

ShadowClan + WindClan - GustClan

ShadowClan + ThunderClan - StrikeClan

ShadowClan + RiverClan - IceClan

ShadowClan + SkyClan - PineClan (the pines being the main tree in ShadowClan)

SkyClan

SkyClan + WindClan - QuickClan

SkyClan + ThunderClan - BranchClan

SkyClan + RiverClan - DriftClan

SkyClan + ShadowClan - PineClan

And, that's it lol. I found it fun.
