    "The cold that gripped her seemed at last to let her go. She closed her eyes and in her last moment felt only warmth. Only love."
    My dear Bristlefrost, you will be remembered as one of the bravest and loving warriors.💗💗💗

    Someone finally honored everything Bristlefrost gave away. She was one of my favorite characters until Erin Hunter decided, "Ok, Bristlefrost is dead, goodbye until fall!". I think she gave up a lot to save the clans, so I thank you Blixemi, for making my favorite cat basically a funeral.

      Oh definitely. I was expected a wishy-washy, everyone wins and Bristle and Root get together and have babies ending. But instead we got an emotional, heart-wrenching, bittersweet conclusion to the story; and while the arc as a whole definitely has its flaws, I’m really happy with the Erins’ decision to kill off Bristlefrost, even if it does hurt.

    The symbolism of Bristlefrost’s death… it’s sad. She saved Rootspring from drowing when they were younger. And now that she finally liked him back, he had to watch her drown when he couldn’t do a thing. Its really sad not gonna lie. It was one of the most heroic warrior deaths i’ve seen.

      Maybe instead of going to Starclan or The Dark Forest, she would be stuck as a ghost, but the reason why everyone thinks she's gone forever is because no one can see her spirit. And maybe when Rootspring dies he would finally lead her spirit to Starclan.

    Wow…I can’t believe how deep this is. As a writer, I loved all the metaphors you used and how deep and heartbreaking you made this song! Like, “Love shapes a heartless fate” and “we’ve clawed so desperately for a future out of reach.” Those lines really give the song depth and so much meaning, you can really feel the pain of how Bristlefrost and Rootsprings futures were taken away by Ashfur, a cat who had an obsession on a cat born way before them. They were robbed, and this song really makes you feel their loss! It’s amazing! Definitely one of the best warrior cat songs out there. (Lol I didn’t mean to make it this long oops.)

    This is incredibly done. I was never the biggest fan of Bristle frost, but I always held a huge respect for her. After everything she had gone through, just to do her best for the ones around her, she should have gotten so much in return. But as I read her final chapters, I grew to love her more and more, and even with this song, it just shows how much she cared for the ones who truly stuck beside her. I wish so much that she was given a place in Starclan, and every time I think of what Rootspring has to go through now- But this really captures her noble spirit in doing what she knows is best, for not only her, but the ones around her.

    "The more I swim the more I see, I simply just can never be living all the dreams I planned to make, still I'll fall unafraid. So you don't sink away" ✨it's so perfect. It fits perfectly, she understands she will never have what she wanted with rootspring, and that she will never be in starclan, she accepts it and is happy she was able to save everyone.

    Edit: The only thing that could make this better would be a male-voice cover of Way to You to go along with it, because that song goes really well with Rootspring's experience after the fact.

    Bristlefrost started off a bit annoying. She was focused on one thing only and when she couldn't achieve Stemleaf's love she wallowed in despair. She felt so one dimensional in the first book. It didn't help that instantly Rootpaw fell in love with her, and instead of trying to gently turn him down she was horrible about it. But then slowly, she wised up, after realizing Bramblestar wasn't really Bramblestar. She allowed herself to be scrutinized by not only her former crush and his mate, but her entire Clan. When even cats from other Clans turned against her and accused her of being a spy, she stayed strong! She saved Squirrelflight's life, and so many other refugees. She was insanely loyal to Squilf, even protecting the Imposter for her so that Bramblestar's spirit would have a vessel to return to. Something that even resulted in the death of several cats she loved, like Rosepetal and Stemleaf.
    She worked hand in hand with Rootspring and Shadowsight to defeat the imposter, and she risked her own life *so many times.* When the Imposter tried to make her deputy, she refused at first, and when Squirrelflight returned, she didn't hesitate to step down. She wanted to earn her place in the Clan, not just benefit from other's suffering.
    When Stemleaf died, she was by Spotfur's side day and night to comfort her, and when it was revealed Spotfur was pregnant, Bristlefrost didn't hesitate to promise her that she'd be by her side. It's so, so sad that wasn't able to keep that promise, because we all know she desperately wanted to. Bris never, ever wanted to abandon Spotfur all alone.
    She went to the Dark Forest willingly *several* times, knowing just how dangerous it was. When it was decided the Imposter would be killed, she comforted Squirrelflight, knowing just how hard this would be for her. When Ashfur kidnapped Squirrelflight, Bristlefrost was one of the first to want to take action. She even helped ThunderClan reach temporary peace by suggesting Graystripe be acting leader, a decision nearly unanimously agreed upon, even by temperamental Lionblaze and grumpy Jayfeather! Despite being so young, she's even chosen to be ThunderClan's representative at an all-Clan meeting with Graystripe to discuss how to rescue Squirrelflight and kill Ashfur.
    And when Shadowsight and Rootspring get stuck in the Dark Forest, Bristlefrost bravely goes looking for them. After noticing that Rootspring didn't manage to escape after she saved him and Shadowsight, Bristlefrost instantly went straight back into the Dark Forest! She can't do anything but watch in horror when Rootspring and Snowtuft are made to fight to the death, and she even grieves Snowtuft for his brave sacrifice.
    Not only did she rescue Rootspring for the 3rd time now, she also managed to help some of Ashfur's prisoners escape, and found the source blocking StarClan! Not only that, but after being captured, Bristlefrost managed to convince her three Dark Forest captors to work with the Clans to save the living cats, the StarClan cats, and the Dark Forest cats.
    When she noticed Shadowsight was being attacked by a rogue spirit, she saved him, and only moments later, when Ashfur was dragging an unconscious Shadowsight towards to water, Bristlefrost didn't hesitate. She *knew* what that water was. She was perfectly aware of exactly what would happen if she knocked Ashfur and herself into the water, yet Shadowsight was a dear friend to her. They'd been through so much together, not to mention he was her cousin. And so, Bristlefrost charged at Ashfur and instead of attempting to swim back up, she pulled Ashfur down with her. She had no regrets as she was dying, she only felt love.
    Bristlefrost is a shining example of loyalty. She loved so, so deeply. She loved Rootspring. She loved her family. She loved Shadowsight. She loved Stemleaf. She loved Spotfur. She loved Squirrelflight. She loved Bramblestar. She loved Rosepetal. She loved ThunderClan. She loved life.
    She had so much potential, and that is what truly hurts most. She had so much more life to give; she was so young! And yet, she was more than happy to throw everything away to save the cats she loved. She was so, so brave. She went through so much in such a short amount of time, and stayed strong through it all. She was so strong that not even Ashfur suspected her of betrayal until the moment she did.
    Bristlefrost, truly, is what every warrior should strive to be. She would've been ThunderClan's most amazing leader had she lived.

Her & Rootspring had plans. All that forbidden love drama for nothing. They could never be.
    I barely know anything about her. But I just wanna jump & pull her our of the water & scream "Bristlefrost ! NOOOOO !!!!" First Spottedleaf. Now this cat I barely know, who was just introduced & the main character in the same arc. If I already knew who she is & what's going on, I would totally be ugly sobbing & crying right now.

    This song is perfect for Bristlefrost. The water sounds, sad piano music, and lovely voice only make it more emotional. The part where she sings: "I fade away so you can be living all the dreams you planned to make" made me sad, because Rootspring's dream was to be with her. Now he'll never get that. but when she sings, "I know you'll be okay", she's saying that he can make it through his grief, and she wants him to. That is something that I know Bristlefrost would have wanted for him.

But only now am I truly thinking about how this is the first 'real' death in perhaps the whole series, the first true case of a life being ripped away far too early that will never get another chance. Damn. Maybe it is deeper than just some cat books that make me nostalgic for middle school.

    2- This is when the book Sky has been released, and at the moment when Sunbeam was like, Rootspring is younger than some of us, yet he acts older, something like that anyways she thought I wonder if it was his experience in the Dark Forest that mad him this way or losing Bristlefrost, and when I saw the word Bristlefrost on the page, I literally started crying (yes, I know I have issues 😂)
    3- This song is so BEAUTIFUL! This song is totally worthy of Bristlefrost, it tugged at my heart strings so hard!
    4- Love your vids! (especially your Mouse Brained trivia show) bye!
