Since the first arc? Current Clan cats from the first arc are: Brambleclaw, Thornclaw, Cloudtail, Brightheart, Brackenfur, Tawnypelt, Snowbird (possibly), Oakfur, and Mosspelt.
Barley is still alive as far as we know, and Smudge and Princess aren't confirmed dead.
This seems like a crack theory but what if this new arc is about Barley and WarriorClan...
Or maybe we might see an arc set in StarClan?
And for IH 'a forgotten generation of warriors'... maybe they WILL meet big cats (lions, tigers, leopards)...

Ooo... theories on the new arc :D
- Barley and WarriorClan - A StarClan POV of the modern Clan stories (debates on how to act, etc) - Prequel arc bridging the end of the prequel SEs and Arc 1 (Whitestorm, Runningnose, Deadfoot, and Mistyfoot POVs would be epic) - BloodClan arc (Fury, Gremlin, and Snake/Ice POVS) about its rise, fall, rebuilding attempts, and disbandment - Anthology arc where each book highlights another Clan's POV on major events in TC heavy arcs (Book 1 is WindClan in exile, Book 2 is RiverClan during the Great Journey, etc) - Mosspelt/Tawnypelt/Brackenfur time babyyyyyy

If this is a Tawnypelt pov I'm gonna cry happy tears.

A very interesting tease. A forgotten generation... could be referring to currently living cats, or one of the clan eras that we don't have much material for. The latter seems to fit the phrase better, imo, but we'll see. I wonder if IH will lay groundwork in the present to tell a story set in the past? But aren't both SEs supposed to tie into events of ASC? I can't imagine describing any cats who have lived through the past arcs as "forgotten", unless it's about WindClan.
To me, the tip about one of the Arc 9 protagonists being someone we know from Arc 1 doesn't necessarily mean it's someone still living. We don't know yet whether Arc 9 will be a continuation into the modern day. Plus, I don't think any of the still living TPB characters have any unseen story that would be worth six books. So I would think it more likely that it'll be some sort of pre-TPB series; although, that era has been explored a lot through SEs too, and the writing team likes to prove me wrong about this sort of thing, so...

It says central character so we might not necessarily get an og arc character as a protagonist but in a strong supporting role.

An old friend? Man I really can't wait. Arc 9 might have connections to Ivypool's SE that was also hinted to have animals(?) have close connections to the clans. Might also be connected to the hinted "Terrible wrong" in the Ivypool's SE blurb.
But if Im wrong then Im wrong I quite excited for Arc 9 now.

OK, what if Ivypool goes on a mission that brings her near the old forest. She sees Princess in her elderly age as a side note in the story. When she returns she mentions this to Cloudtail. Cloudtail has lost Brightheart at this point and decides to try to see Princess before she passes. This leads him to have some sort of connection or belief in Starclan as Brightheart visits him as a guide in the journey. Then it ends with Cloudtail passing on happily to Starclan after so much time not believing in them.

Definitely sounds interesting. Looking forward to seeing what happens.

My bet is on Barley and WarriorClan returning ... I think it would be cool if we found out someone from WarriorClan is a descendant of Princess/Cloudtail's littermates (and thus related to Ivypool) :-P

I'm genuinely just so hyped up for Ivypool's Heart this year, then the ASC finale and the 9th arc as well as the 2025 SE already thanks to this article, cannot wait to find out more about the latter two later on in 2024!

Holy hell, they sure know how to tease. Been loving A Starless Clan, so yes, of course very excited to see how Wind and book six wrap up the arc. Epic story sweeping across two super editions...Infinity War/Endgame vibes, anyone? (Jokes). But that's cool that it's "epic". A forgotten generation of warriors? I honestly have no idea what this could mean, and I'm very excited to find out. Forgotten in universe or by readers? So book one of arc 9 is already being written, huh? No surprise there tbh, but nice. One of the central characters will be an old friend we've been following since the OG arc? Dang, who tf? Maybe another Firestar POV..? Idk. I hope it's someone we haven't had a POV from before.

Oooo this sounds so interesting! Maybe Arc 9 will be about WarriorClan, though I'm still hoping that it might be a DotC sequel (though it seems unlikely at this point).

Idk how I forgot him, but there’s also Stormfur! Maybe the arc will involve the Tribe again?

If Stormfur is the old friend— What if the Clans went through a disaster or major conflict, and they had to send for help from the Tribe? And a team of Tribe cats came to their aid?

That would be a nice change from the Tribe always being saved by the Clans. Like, how do these buff mountain cats always need the Clans to save the day for them?

Praying to StarClan that it will be a Firestar-POV from StarClan.

Honestly... a Stormfur related focus could be likely? Or maybe one of his kin, they did get some focus in TBC.

If we're not getting anything between DoTC and TPB, the least I can ask for would probably either be Stormfur or Tawnypelt.

Or maybe one of his kin, they did get some focus in TBC. they did say central, so not necessarily a protagonists but perhaps someone prominently featured. it’d be kind of neat if it followed one of Stormfur’s kin in the Tribe, perhaps going on a journey to the clans.
