"Hmmmmmmmm..." Fatekit jumped down from his mother's back and settled down next to her. "Well, you've already told us soooo much about the Sun God, why don't we hear a story about you?" He looked up to his mother's flank and traced his paw along one of the long, flowing scars that almost seemed to be drawn onto her flesh. "How did you get these? They look so cool! Could I get them one day? Maybe get one with a sun on it?" He paused. "Well, after we hear about escaping Bloodystar."

"Nah I think it'll be an exciting story full of twist and turns, betrayal, heartache and it's all okay cuz we know it has a happy ending!"

Who would have thought that Vividkit was so theatrical? It seemed as if he head never left the clouds after the Sun God yeeted her out of the gorge the other day.

"But after that I do wanna hear about your scars too!"

"Whoever he is, surely he's no match for Littlestar!" Lambkit piped up, bracing himself on Lightkit's shoulders as he stood on his back paws to get a better view. It was hard to get a good spot these days with how many kits there were. "Obviously, because Littlestar is here and Bloodystar is gone!" he explained, adjusting his paws so that he was more or less just clambering over his littermate.

"Sounds like Fatekit!" Vividkit giggled, booping her brother gently on the head, "Full of energy and super devoted BUT he did climb to the top of the waterfall without thinking about how he was going to get down..."

She gave her brother the side-eye as if daring him to do or say something to challenge her. She was baiting him, of course, and was already thinking of the moves she'd pull if they started play fighting over it. stardance

“We worked together for many moons, until one day he fell in love with my daughter and your older sister, Satinpaw. He was the age of a young warrior, and she but a young apprentice. I left SunClan in his care for a short time, and came back to find he had not only started a war with MoonClan but that he and Satinpaw were now engaged. Seeing the two of them together, it infuriated me, and I over reacted. I forbid the two of them from being together, and treated both of them unfairly. It wasn’t the fact that they wanted to be together that bothered me, only her age and tiny size. Back then I thought that I was protecting Satinpaw from going through what I had as an apprentice. Falling in love far to early, getting pregnant, and nearly dying trying to bring my first litter into this world. I was so concerned for her physical well being, that I put their emotional needs second. It was cruel of me and wrong ” Littlestar took in a deep breath “but I can not go back and change that now…..”

“The two of them began meeting in secret behind my back, despite my best efforts to keep the two of them apart. Satinpaw ended up pregnant with his kits anyway. This pushed me over the edge, and for time I even demoted him to the rank of initiate. Giving him the name of idiot brother, until he could prove to both me and the Sun God that he was worthy of my trust once more. Not long after he had climbed up the ranks again, the three of us took a walk out to MoonClan’s border to work out our differences. Things were a little better then, I had since apologized for my actions but the damage had already been done. It was that day that Satinlights fell into the river. We never found her body, though we spent many moons searching. I even crossed the border into MoonClan, desperate to find her. Bloodyrondo was never the same after her death, it was the beginning of his descent into madness”

Despite being a Janus, Lacelily was still a kit like her littermates. At least in size and mind. She had already begun her training but loved listening to stories such as this. She listened quietly, waiting for the end of the tale, soaking it all in like the silver she-kit would never hear another story again. This could be important or useful information, right? Regardless, it was entertaining.

"Yeah, I wouldn't do that cuz I don't have a deathwish, Fatekit!" Vividkit giggled, batting playfully at her brother although her blows didn't land. She decided not to mention that just the other day the Sun God had thrown her out of the gorge and into a tree, which was a much greater and more dangerous distance to travel that Fatekit's little stunt with the waterfall.

She then turned her attention back to Littlestar and her canary yellow eyes went wide as saucers. Her smile disappeared and her tail began to wave back and forth against the sandstone, stirring up a tiny cloud of dust.

"Wait... so you let the Moon Goddess into your body and used her power to kill the Sun God!? I'm sorry mama but you really sound like the bad guy here! How is that even remotely OK!? And how is Bravewolf still alive if you already killed him?! I'm so confused!"

Littlestar chuckled, not surprised by their reactions really. They had been raised to the Sun God as good, so the news that their mother had killed him would be quite shocking "It is what the ancients required of me, my sacred duty to ensure that SunClan could continue on long after I was gone. Had the Sun God continued on that path, not only would SunClan have been destroyed but the Sun God himself. The Sun God has an immortal soul, but his true power comes from those that believe in him. SunClan had lost faith in their deity, the from he had taken no longer serving the cats he meant to protect. He has lived for for more years than you can imagine,  and when he remains in one form for to long he begins to loose his connection with his humanity"

The silver queens paused "Perhaps I was the bad guy in this story, at least to those whom didn't understand. The moment I decided that killing the Sun God was what needed to happen for the sake of all those that I loved my life was forfeit. I was willing to give up all nine of my lives, to ensure SunClan's future. Just as in the stories of old, sometimes the only way to ensure life is with with death. However, one can not simply just kill the Sun God. His soul is immortal, what I did was take away his physical form so that he could be reborn. To grow up, and regain his connection with the mortals that worshipped him. To see their struggles, understand their emotions, and feel their pain. For that I was willing to give up everything. In that moment it didn't matte where that power came from to achieve what needed to be done. Only that it was done. The ancients warned me that by taking in the Moon Goddess energy, I to would perish with the God I sought to slay. I accepted the terms, only... I didn't loose all my lives that day"

"Yeah! Do I get to be a god!" He puffed out his chest. "If I were a god, I could climb the camp again and I wouldn't slip! "
