So we all the Great Battle makes no darn sense. Taking the supernatural nonsense to the extreme, with ghost somehow physically appearing in the real world, when it previously established Dark Forest cats can only briefly appear as 'thin shadows'. Yet here they are, with no expectation; ghosts somehow killing living cats, living cats killing ghosts and ghosts killing ghosts. It's very strange.
So how would use of done it? I myself personally wouldn't have this arc exist at all: Cat hell vs Heaven, it too far gone from the more grounded Prophecy Begins. But hey it's here and we're going to try and improve it. So what's a more believable way you would do it?
Here's mine. Though I'm not sure if it's actually more believable then the canon. Reading it back now, it sounds- out there. But here it is anyway. Quick side note, Sol would be the fourth cat and Hollyleaf is in the three in this version:

Here's mine. Though I'm not sure if it's actually more believable then the canon. Reading it back now, it sounds- out there. But here it is anyway. Quick side note, Sol would be the fourth cat and Hollyleaf is in the three in this version:
However, this isn't the end of Sol. Starclan makes the mistake of sending Sol to the Dark Forest. Which deeply troubles Sol, dying too early and in the wrong place, ruining his plans of a long happy afterlife. His instant response after going to the Dark Forest is visiting Breezepelt in a dream, telling him that the three were is his half-siblings. Breezepelt ends revealing this information at the next gathering. However, Hollyleaf was able to avoid exile by revealing Ashfur's former crimes, Thunderclan considering it self-defense.
Sol knew things about the afterlives that very few others did, thanks to his travels. The fact that all the 'Sky afterlives', including Starclan and Dark Forest are the just reflections of the 'collective consciousness' of the Living Cats. The livings' thoughts, become the dead's reality. This was the reason why spirits faded after they're completely forgotten about by the current generation. It was a long shot, but if Sol could somehow convince enough living Clan cats that Starclan/Dark Forest were different to the currently conceived notion, then he could cause the very spirit world around him to change. Then maybe through that, he could make the Dark Forest lose its ability to trap the souls of its residents in which he could make his escape.
However, the other Dark forest wanted to take advantage of Sol's spiritual knowledge for their own goals. Forcing him to help them overcome the tricky of the Dark Forest; allowing them to find each other and visiting dreams of trainees more regardlessly. Also, helping to pick out weak-minded cats who could become trainees, including Breezepelt. To convince the trainees into training, Sol manipulates the Medicine cat, Kestrileflight. Through him, he falsely preaches to all the Clans that Starclan has already decided/'destined' the afterlife for every cat from birth, no matter what they do. Blaming Brokenstar and Tigerstar on Starclan, which causes some Clan members mistrust their spiritual guardians. So according to him, anyone who is 'destined to go to the Dark Forest', will go there regardless if they're innocent or not. So uses this to win the trainees over, using the logic, 'Since you're going to end up Dark Forest anyway, why not get revenge while you still can?'.
Due to the Dark Forest becoming such common knowledge and the new mistrust of Starclan among the living cats, it allowed a shift in power that never happened. For the first ever, the Dark Forest had more influence, being able to visit dreams more and more regularly. Fear of Dark Forest Trainees going rapid, some calling for them to be witch hunted. To stop the Clans breaking down, the three were forced to publicly reveal themselves, to give them a beacon of hope. There were mixed reactions, but in the end, the Clans were desperate, so put their faith into the young cats.
Seeing their mistake, Starclan makes a deal with the desperate Sol, if he helps them, they'll give him a second chance at life. When the three are looking for the fourth cat, they are given this prophecy, "You will find them, in a place hidden from sun and moon. A rouge amoung rouges. A traitor among traitors. They will destroy the destruction and peace will settle among the ruins." It's then discovered that Sol is the fourth cat. Forcing the Three to reluctantly work with Sol, despite how much they hate it.
He becomes a double agent, for the Dark Forest and Starclan. Lionblaze continues his training in the Dark Forest, acting as a spy, working with Sol. Due to not being able to fight, the Dark Forest cats are constantly questioning why they're keeping him around. So Sol has use all his manipulation skill and sharp tongue to constantly come up with excuses on why they need him alive. Which is especially difficult, dealing with other intelligent like Mapleshade and Tigerstar, pushing Sol to his limits.
This causes Sol to break down, showing an emotional side of him we've never seen before, his cowardice really showing through. He wants to give up on serval occasional, making Hollyleaf, who aware of all his tricks by now, to constantly put him back in his place and force him on. Switching their roles, Hollyleaf the one in control now. She has high expectations for the cats around her and he's no different. She won't tolerate Sol's whining, especially since Sol is needed to win against the Dark Forest.
While strolling for time, Sol employs cats such as Clawface, who feel guilty for their crimes, promising if they act as his secret bodyguards, he claims 'he can get them into Starclan's ranks'. When the Dark Forest residents are satisfied with the amounts of trainees, Sol can afford to slip away alone more often, which is when he sets his secret plan in motion - To convince enough living Clan cats that the Dark Forest/Starclan aren't what they thought they were, in order to phyically alter them.
Due to not being able to enter Starclan, Sol finds himself sending more and more time on the border between the two afterlives, inside a large fog barrier. In order to visit someone dreams, they must have no mental barriers, by either not being aware of the spirit or willingly allowing them to visit. So since everyone knew who Sol was, mosts Clan cat had mental defends against him. So Sol visited the Three's dreams, telling them of the extreme importance of him being able to talk to all the living Clan cats, even if he was dead. Knowing his importance in the prophecy, they hesitantly go along with his plan. By now, the Three's powers were public knowledge, so Sol knew they were respected and would be listened to. So in the physical world, they explained at the Gathering, that Sol needed to visit all their dreams, so when they went to sleep that night, they needed to willingly allow Sol in.
That night, serval Clan cats reluctantly followed suit, lowering their mental barriers. That night, they found themselves in the fog barrier, Sol there to greet them all, apologizing to them all about his crimes while alive, promising he was only here to save them from the Dark Forest. Afterwards, the cats who attended were able to confirm to their clanmates, that Sol did nothing to harm them.
This led to more allowing their mental defences to go down, soon the numbers at the meetings growing. This was the start of a long chain of meetings, where Sol would tell the Living cats the 'truth' of their spiritual ancestors. Which in reality, he was making up everything. He told them; 'That in ancient times, that the Clans' were meant to have one fair afterlife. Where all cats would be made to walk through a fog realm, to live through all the pain they inflicted on others, where eventually their souls would be pure enough to move onto a Starry paradise. However, Starclan abandoned those plans, some members wanting to continue getting away with their crimes, scot-free. Using the fog border as evidence, claiming it was the only fragment left of this once planned afterlife.'
To test his theory of the afterlives being based on 'collective consciousness of the living', at the end of one of the meetings, Sol subtly slipped in, 'I'll see you all again at the Gathering stone', despite there being no rock. However, low and behold, at the next dream gathering, the large stone had appeared. He'd been correct. If he convinced enough Clan cats that their afterlives should be something else, that's exactly what it'd become.
Up until this point, the Three hadn't understood what he'd been doing, however, it was starting to become obvious to Jayfeather. Despite knowing Sol was only doing it for his own selfish gain, he still agreed that it was time for Starclan to change, so allowed Sol to carry on. With Jayfeather explaining it to his siblings and convincing this was for the greater good. With Hollyleaf just barely agreeing. Though still warning she'd make Sol fade away if he took a signal step out of line. With Sol getting the message loud and clear, being very careful with each move he took.
Then, carrying on with the lies, Sol claimed that was still a way to 'activate this ancient plan' - That every full moon, this stone within the fog, would begin to glow. Then if four living cats from all the four Clans were to touch it simultaneously, the barrier Fog would begin to expand, turning Starclan and Dark Forest alike, into this 'fair afterlife'. When the Final Battle come along, Sol specifically planned for it to be on the night of the Full Moon, in order to try and make it even more convincing this ceremony was real. As if not enough Clan cats didn't believe it, it wouldn't work.
In my version; Instead of taking place at the Lake, the Great battle will take place in the Dark Forest and Starclan. Each Dark Forest cat would visit their chosen individual's dreams they hated and have a one on one battle with them in an isolated clearing, etc. Firestar vs Tigerstar, to make it a lot more personal. For those Dark forest cats with no one living they'd like to kill, they'd team up with a trainee, to make sure they stay loyal and killed their chosen cat, for example, Brokenstar making sure Breezepelt killed Crowfeather.
Once, their chosen cat(s) are killed, they'd go off to help their fellow residents. So it basically the Dark Forest's planned to visit every cats' dreams individually, slowly killing the Clan cats off in one long night. With those one-on-one fights, they would have the advantage, with a Dark Forest being trained better than any Clan cat. But Sol knew the location where every battle would take place, so ran to each spot. The previous nights, Sol had tirelessly visited every Clan cat, giving them clear intrusions: Once they saw him, stop fighting their opposites and follow him as he would guide them to the Starclan border, where all of Starclan would be waiting.
With the help of the Three and other traitorous Dark Forest like Clawface, Sol rounded up as many cats as possible. Jayfeather would try to detect where everyone was with his mind powers. Hollyleaf would sneak around, scouting the area without being detected. And Lionblaze acted as Sol's bodyguard, effortlessly ripping any Dark Forest cat to screeds if they figured out what Sol was doing and tried to kill him. Sadly, he couldn't make it to everyone in time, but he managed to save the majority of cats, leading them safely to Starclan.
After the three's jobs are done, they head to the border, helping the Starclan warriors fight off the Dark Forest ones. The three alone are able to cause matter damage: Jayfeather freezing cats with fear by bringing their most horrid memories, leaving the open to attack. Hollyleaf able to do surprise attack after surprise, no able to chase after her as she disappearing into the undergrowth again. And Lionblaze- he switches on his battle rage, and Starclan help whatever Dark Forest warrior he got his claws on.
Before Firestar can reach the border, Tigerstar manages to drag him away from the major fight, into an isolated clearing. Sol sees this and heads after them. He's just in time to see, Tigerstar had already taken Firestar's last life, waiting for Firestar's spirit to be exposed, so he cause his spirit to fade away for ever. Sol rushed forward, leaping at him. Luckily for Sol, Tigerstar had already been deeply wounded earlier in the battle, so all it took was a slash to the throat and Tigerstar's spirit faded away. After saving Firestar, Sol lead Firestar's spirit safely to Starclan.
Once enough Clan cats are gathered safely in Starclan, Sol yowls for them to follow him to the Ancient Stone within the fog border, reminding them of the 'ceremony'. Some refuse to go, but the majority hesitantly, wanting to see a change after losing their hope in Starclan.
And there, when they arrive, the Stone was indeed glowing. Without Sol even needing to give the order, the Clan Cats imminently crowded round the glowing ord, trying to reach it. With the Swirling Mist around them starting to shift and change in ways, it had never before. Despite it being all made up, Sol's words had made Clan cats believe it the ceremony would work. They wanted it to work. So that's exactly what happened, the spirit world bending to the Livings' will. By now, confused Starclan and Dark Forest cats had caught up, demanding to know what was going on. But it was already too late, as the Fog began to expand, beginning to the long process of consuming both Starclan and the Dark Forest, ready for the new afterlife.
The crowds of cats, both dead and alive, were starting to panic trying to retreat to their respected territories. The Living disappeared one by one as their spirits returned to their waking bodies in the physical world. Yet it was hopeless for the dead, as soon they'd all be trapped, about the start the long process of their purification. The only ones left at the Stone; were the three, Sol and a few select Starclan cats. Among them, Yellowfang steps forwards, ordering to know what Sol had done. With him calmly replying he'd done what they agreed, saved the Clans, asking for his reward of reincarnation.
Yet Yellowfang refused, claiming that wasn't the deal at all. Surprisingly, the Three start taking Sol's side, now seeing the unfairness of the current system. Jayfeather challenging Yellowfang by reminding her of her own crimes, of lying to her Clan and killing her son, questioning why she should get away those crimes, while others are main to suffer for eternity for theirs. Each siblings admitting themselves, they're all murderers.
With the Fog fast enclosing in on them, Sol then threatens Yellowfang, saying that if they allowed him to remain as a spirit; he could still convince the Clan cats to turn the new afterlife into something much worse, then it already is. Or, turn him into a harmless kit again.
The choose was obvious.
Slowly, Yellowfang steps forward, placing her nose to Sol's, as he then disappears in a flash of light. Just before the Three wake up, they see the remaining Starclan cats are swallowed up by the fog. Yellowfang's final words, admitting it will be a painful process for everyone, but at least they'll all eventually get to paradise - Announcing she couldn't wait to see her son as the caring tom he was always meant to be.
As the last of the Clan cats wake up, it's just past dawn. With some refusing to sleep for days afterwards, scared what sleep could bring them. However, nothing happened, no one visiting their dreams. Starclan seemingly had fallen silent. As soon as it turned the next half moon, the Medicine cats rushed to Moonpool, to see what had become of Starclan. What they found was a large starry purple void, similar to Starclan, but somehow even more beautiful. The only problem it was empty, no one was there to greet them. No spirit purified enough, to make it through the fog realm yet.
The news shock the Four Clans to their core. For at least awhile, they'd have no one to gild them. And what made it even worse for the Three specifically, it turned out Squirrelflight was pregnant, it was obvious who one of those kits would be. Now Sol had truly become kin of Firestar's kin, the cat that had killed Starclan.
Sol knew things about the afterlives that very few others did, thanks to his travels. The fact that all the 'Sky afterlives', including Starclan and Dark Forest are the just reflections of the 'collective consciousness' of the Living Cats. The livings' thoughts, become the dead's reality. This was the reason why spirits faded after they're completely forgotten about by the current generation.
