The Stick of the Fallen[]
When the fire died,
And brambles rose,
The jay's feather
Found a stick.
Scratching six lines,
That cat said:
"This is the
Stick of the Fallen."
The first scratch said:
I died from
Fighting hard, strong.
Killed by a
Dark Forest tom,
After I had
Done my duty.
Mousefur. I am Mousefur.
The second scratch said:
I died after
I saved one.
I left, but
I then returned.
He was Hawkfrost.
He killed me.
Hollyleaf. I am Hollyleaf.
The third scratch said:
I died from
Wounds I sustained
Fighting for ThunderClan.
I survived, but
Then I died -
I wasn't saved.
Foxleap. I am Foxleap.
The fourth scratch said:
I died fighting.
I fought for
The kits of
Sorreltail and Brightheart.
The five survived -
I was satisfied.
Ferncloud. I am Ferncloud.
The fifth scratch said:
I died after
The ferocious battle.
I hid my
Wounds, but it
Cost my life.
My kits survived.
Sorreltail. I am Sorreltail.
The final scratch said:
I died of
The wounds sustained.
I thwarted the
Cat I hated,
But my flame
Was put out.
Firestar. I am Firestar.
The six mark it.
The Stick of
The Fallen Cats.
Today, all apprentices
Learn their names,
As a tribute
To their sacrifice
To save the Clans.
