Relevant History :

Born to two BirdClan warriors, Ashkit and her sister Cinderkit were the only two of their litter to survive the night. They were born at a time when there were few other kits in the nursery, and subsequently grew very close. Upon reaching their apprenticeship, Ashpaw was mentored by a rather irascible but competent warrior and Cinderpaw had the prestige of being mentored by the Clan leader. The two had a friendly rivalry, however, with time their mock competitions developed into real ones. The fondness they once shared gradually disintegrated into mutual aversion.

Only a moon before the two apprentices’ warrior ceremony, Cinderpaw came to Ashpaw with a terrible secret – she was carrying the kits of another warrior, in another Clan. Cinderpaw wanted Ashpaw to help conceal her pregnancy and eventually find another queen to give the kits to. And even though their relationship was anything but caring, Ashpaw still found that she wanted to help her sister. However, doing so would mean breaking the warrior code, as Cinderpaw had done. So, at only eleven moons, Ashpaw was faced with the hardest choice she has ever had to make; aid Cinderpaw and risk banishment, or follow the code and report the incident to the leader, thereby leaving Cinderpaw’s fate in another’s paws.

Ashpaw hated herself for her decision. She told Cinderpaw to leave the Clan, that there was no way to cover up such a huge breech in the warrior code, and that she could never return. Ashpaw promised to keep Cinderpaw’s secret till her last breath, and she would tell the Clan that Cinderpaw had perished on the Thunderpath. Cinderpaw was terrified, but Ashpaw insisted that she needed to escape before their leader found out.

The night before her apprentice ceremony, Ashpaw embarked on the customary trip to the High Den to share tongues with StarClan. She was anxious and filled with worry, for her thoughts were constantly on Cinderpaw and whether StarClan would understand why Ashpaw had done what she had done. The she-cat saw nothing when she pressed her nose against the luminous ball, but did hear the voices of her ancestors, swirling around her, speaking in soft whispers. Ashpaw didn’t understand what they were trying to tell her, but awoke feeling far calmer and more settled than she had in the past moon. StarClan had accepted her, Ashpaw was sure of it.

Newly confident in the choice she had made, Ashpaw became Ashfall, a full warrior of BirdClan. Now and then Ashfall feels harsh pangs of worry for her lost sister, but believes that wherever she may be, StarClan is watching over her.
