and this is AFTER the whole incel ghost possesses a leader becomes a fascist and cuts of connection to the ancestors. book series of all timeeee

and the only people who know how to navigate the river are wildcats (like the actual wild species). and we learn this in a side book that is mostly cat pregnancy + grief drama.

as an avowed Warrior Cats Contemplator (im subscribed to their newsletter and everything lol) if people have only read the first few arcs they don't even know how wild shit gets. canonically there are multiple afterlives connected by a river, ONLY the clan cats have a heaven & hell

NEVER APOLOGIZE FOR TRUTH HANK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
