Blackfoot's Reckoning/Cliffnotes

======
*Scourge dies, and the battle against BloodClan ends.
*Luckily, the worst injuries ShadowClan had gotten were a few scratches. 
*Blackfoot thinks over what to do, and he feels doubtful if he is good enough to lead ShadowClan.
*RiverClan leaves, ignoring ShadowClan to not show any connection to Tigerstar. 
*Firestar warns him to not repeat his mistakes. 
*Runningnose wakes him at morning, and asks if he is ready. Blackfoot replies that he is. 
*He decides that his deputy will be Russetfur, and tells her of his decision.
*Runningnose and Blackfoot arrive at Highstones, and he connects with StarClan.
*Sagewhisker tells him that for this ceremony, he would relieve his past with each life, and he could tell them to stop at any time.
*He agrees, and Blizzardwing and Hollyflower step forward.
======
*Blackpaw is in the medicine cat den, having eaten a rotten frog prior.
*Blizzardwing comes to visit in the middle of the night.
**Hollyflower and Blizzardwing argue about whether he should be allowed to visit.
*Blackpaw discovers that Blizzardwing is his father.
*He is playing games with the other apprentices.
*Clawpaw tells them that they cannot become warriors as they are half-Clan.
**Blackpaw wants to tell the truth, but decides not to.
*He talks to Brokenkit about it, who tells him that it doesn't matter what others think.
**Brokenkit is surprised that Blackpaw knows who his father was, and wishes that someday he become a greater warrior than his father, to teach that cat a lesson.
*Back in the present, Blackfoot reveals that he knew that Blizzardwing was his father.
*Blizzardwing gives him a life for acceptance.
======
*Raggedstar appears, and they greet each other.

*Blackfoot intervenes, reminding the warrior that they cannot harm apprentices.
**Brokenpaw calls Ashheart a coward before going off.
*Ashheart goes to report to Nightpelt.
*Brokenpaw tells Blackfoot that Clanmates were useless if they couldn't do anything.

**The two converse, and Blackfoot promises to look out for Brokenpaw.
*In the present, Raggedstar gives him a life for trust, telling him that Brokentail had killed him at the end, but trust was important.
======
*Badgerfang pads forward, and Blackfoot feels the past taking shape around him.
*Brokenstar calls for a Clan meeting.
**Badgerkit becomes Badgerpaw, and Flintfang becomes the apprentice's mentor.
*Fernshade is concerned about this, because Badgerkit is yet still very young.
*Later on, they battle a WindClan patrol.
*Badgerpaw dies, his final words a request to be named after Flintfang.
======
*Badgerfang gifts Blackfoot a life for perspective.
*Gray Wing steps forward to grant Blackfoot a life.
*In the memory, Tallstar and Deadfoot warily appear.

**He kills Rosetail when she interrupts.

*Rosetail gives him a life for compassion.
======
*Bluestar touches her nose to his, and the vision takes shape.

**They both agree that Fireheart had no business in being a warrior.
*Tigerclaw tells him that Brokenstar was dead. 
======
*Bluestar grants him a life for judgement.

TigerClan cats.
