Ok so I ditched Reborn a long time ago, cuz I suffered from art block and I still am, but I promised to post how it was supposed to be liek, so here I go! (And for once this is a story I actually pre-planned before launching it lol. Anyway take a deep breath and brace yourselves, bc im abt to rant about a lot of stuff that doesn’t make sense :OO) ok, so basically—here’s the base lore for reborn. So if you’ve read the epilogue called Stormpaw's secret (which I prob ditched too idk: https://scratch.mit.edu/projects/1288178703), yk how Stormpaw always ventures out at night? That’s not cuz he’s exploring, it’s cuz he’s meeting with the REAL Pyritestar. The one rn is the real pyritestar's twin called Sparkstar, except the real Pyritestar is evil, and manipulated the clan for his own benefit (oh ye this is unrelated but if ur wondering why its a clan of rogues it’s cuz rogues who were unjustly banished / exiled blah blah joined PyriteClan). As a result his GOOD twin Sparkstar k'oed him and bc he knew the clan thought pyrite was good, he kept it a secret and pretended to be Pyritestar and balanced the clan. When Pyritestar went into the dark forest, he was put on trial and sent to the underwood, but there was a cat that was actually a Dark Forest cat that found out how to go to StarClan, making him a half dark-half-star cat, and bc of that, the cat was able to make a special type of “deal” with pyrite, and temporarily let him live every now and then, and when his solid form wore out he would be a ghost. So in ch 1 of https://scratch.mit.edu/projects/1288178703, the solid form of da evil twin aka Pyritestar was talking to Stormpaw. The reason Stormpaw is forced to go out and pretend everything is ok and slowly help Pyritestar get back into the clan is cuz when pyrite was alive, and storm and leaf were newborns, yk how their dad d13d? Guess who k'oed him? Pyrite. He k1ll3d him very unfairly just cuz he protested against pyrite after finding out the truth. and bc pyrite also later figured out how to make cats temporarily alive with solid + ghost forms like himself, he made a deal (that he didn’t plan on keeping) with Stormpaw. Anyway enough yapping abt Stormpaw’s secret, let’s talk about why reborn's called reborn. Well. Ravenfang was reborn as Wrenpaw, with none of his memories to atone for his “sins.” And yk how Ravenfang said his leader forced him to k1ll ppl? That leader was pyrite. (Omg everything connects) And…hm…wow leafstar and Leafpaw have the same prefix…well that’s cuz they’re the same cat. To watch Raven when he was reborn, she was reborn, too, but can also temporarily return to her norm StarClan form. But wait…why does she seem evil? Well, based off a bunch of lore art I released, u can guess she’s evil. Well. That’s bc she is. Turns out she’s the cat that was in the dark forest but found out how to cross borders to StarClan and make those “deals,” and made a deal with pyrite! She wanted to get revenge on StarClan bc she was a med cat that didn’t do her duties. The reason she didn’t heal the cats in her clan (I forgot the name) and let her whole clan die cuz of green cough was cuz she hated her leader that was even crueler than pyrite, and when her whole clan died, she k1ll3d her leader, but they both d13d. And so she sw0re to get revenge by manipulating the DF and StarClan to destroy all the clans, even if it meant risking her own sanity. So she decided she'd start her path of vengeance by being Leafpaw and making Ravenfang reborn, then slowly tearing apart relationships between clans and somehow making pyrite slaughter the clans on her behalf. So! When wren got hurt cuz of the eagle, his mentor was taken off the job, and wren got depression, and his mentor was spark (Pyritestar to him cuz he didn’t know the truth) himself. And one day while training, Sparkstar trusted wren so much that he revealed he wasn’t Pyritestar. He revealed the whole thing, how he k1ll3d his own evil twin and led the clan with his name. And wren believed him and sw0r3 he’d never tell anyone. but…pyrite's ghost was stalking them. I forgot what else happened but somehow wren and storm figured out leafsong's plan and wren was Ravenfang, and when they found out Leafpaw was leafsong, Stormpaw was HORRIFIED his own sister was a returned DF cat, and unable to process how everything was bc of his own “sister,” he went crazy and k1ll3d Leafpaw. And went he came to and saw Leafpaw's d3d body, he went into depression and secluded himself in his den, and pyrite noticed his anguish and proposed a deal, if he brought back Leafpaw without leafsong's soul, storm would k1ll Wrenpaw, but storm declined and said he’d rather d13 than face the twisted reality. But somehow they defeated leafsong in the DF a by using the power of tEaMwOrK and outsmarting leafsong idk In the end, however, Stormpaw became a k1ll1ng machine (cuz leafsong manipulated (Cont in notes)
(Cont from desc) all of the DF and some StarClan cats, and during the final battle, Stormpaw, Wrenpaw, their mentors, and all of PyriteClan, Stormpaw became a k1ll1ng machine after going crazy cuz of k1ll1ng his own sister Wrenpaw began hallucinating his past self (Ravenfang) Sparkstar felt nothing as he faced his own twin and banished him forever in the underwood And all of PyriteClan still somehow became once more peaceful, slowly rebuilding everything…although they all knew the heart of the clan was lost. Yes ik the ending is depressing. That’s the point. I was hoping I could finish it and let ppl notice the real point of the ending, but anyways the real point is that even if ur reborn, u will never always have a happy ending or the best golden path. Enjoy. Scroll down Wow u actually read all that lol- Type banana if you got to here
