Where does it say that Riverstar ends up with a mate and kits? I must have missed that part. Storm tells him during the ceremony.

Just to clear up since my phone typo’d apparently. Storm is expressing gratitude for Riverstar being the stepping stone to connecting with the living. Not referring to herself. Apologize if there’s been any confusion from that.

I've actually just finished reading the book itself. I got it recently. I can answer any questions anyone has if they don't want to wait for a complete write up.

It may be my favorite arc, but man, the Erins were wildin'. you would think that after years of fans saying about how badly dotc treats the female characters they would learn?(And they absolutely do keep up with the online fandom as evidenced by some of their articles). But no, they give us one of their biggest insults yet in Flutter. A cat doomed to die without ever uttering a single word in the books prior and her death is only to serve Riverstar’s own personal arc. Absolutely nothing else comes of her death(as far as we know so far?). Ultimate fridged warrior cat. It’s actually pretty disgusting, not as bad as some of the stunts they’ve pulled… but this is pretty bad. She never even needed to exist in the first place, there’s plenty of reasons for Riverstar to want to go back to the park rather than retconning Arc’s sister to become River’s perfect doting and tragic love interest.

His mate is Finch. She's one of the Cats of the Park. He has three kits - Smoke Dusk, Arc Shadow, and Ripple Shine.

His mate is Finch. She's one of the Cats of the Park. He has three kits - Smoke Dusk, Arc Shadow, and Ripple Shine. So does he stay in RiverClan then or go to the park? And is there anything in this book about him making the apprenticeship system like the field guides says he did?

Riverstar goes to the Park. Slash drove them out of their original location, so they he goes with Arc and Drizzle. He meets Finch there and they eventually come back to RiverClan.
For your question about the apprentice/mentor, yes, he creates that system in the book. He assigns the young cats in RiverClan a mentor and creates the ceremony, but he doesn't change their name to -paw, for some reason.

Ripple Shine is a silver she-kit. Finch is a black she-cat with green eyes. Yes, Arc Shadow is named after Arc.

Love or hate the upcoming ship, those kit names are BALLER. Here's to hoping Finch has a notable personality.

I find it very funny/ sad how he names a kid after arc, a kid after himself, but poor flutter gets once again kicked to the curb. This poor character, she has nothing.

Ngl, much as I'm not liking what we've gotten so far, I kinda feel like you maybe should've asked Sphinx first since this is still their spoiler thread. That being said... Surprised he doesn't end up with Night, but I like the names of the kits. And we finally get payoff for Slash, weak of a villain as he was. I'm also not surprised the 'paw suffix hasn't been established yet, considering the whole naming system itself doesn't really seem to be a thing yet. The apprentice thing was kinda already established in DotC though, but I guess RH establishes it as an official rank now?

He probably doesn't change their name to paw because they already have full names. I mean, there is literally a Spider Paw in RC at this point in time.

I'm drawing parallels to her and Spottedleaf, but at least Spottedleaf had a larger role while she was alive. This is what we get for discouraging the River Ripple x Flutter ship, I guess. Now I'm curious as to how Finch turns out.

Shooting them a DM would have been fine. I guess they're either going to forget to explain "-paw" suffixes or do that in some potential DoTC 2, but it's hard to replicate the writing style of DoTC. And writing style isn't even their weakness.

Also nice that they're going to address the fact that nobody heard word of Slash since Path of Stars. River Ripple better throw some hands.

Sorry, I was under the impression this was a spoiler thread, which meant that people could post spoilers in here. it is. And everyone’s allowed to discuss what’s been spoiled. Or you’re allowed to create your own thread and spoil as much as you like. It’s just a little disrespectful to go and steal the thrill and thunder of the thread owner. Would be kind of like if you had something special planned for a best friend/family member/SO and then someone else went and spilled everything when it was meant to be surprise. Would take the magic and mojo away from the person, you know?.
