Wrenheart

> "*It doesn’t matter if I become a warrior if I’m not willing to fight. I may be injured, but my Clan needs me. I can’t let them down. If I go to StarClan today, it will be worth knowing I died in battle, for my Clan.*"

**Wrenheart** is a brown tabby she-cat with a light brown tail and white paws.

Wrenheart was an apprentice of MudClan. She is born as **Wrenkit** to Dappledshadow and Sparrowflight of MudClan, along with her sibling, Graykit. She becomes an apprentice as **Wrenpaw**. Grassfall is her mentor. She does well in fighting, although hunting takes more practice. Soon, she has her assessment. However, she falls out of a tree. Addertail tells her it will only heal with time, and she should rest. When a border patrol comes back, they report a pack of wolves have crossed the border and are heading for camp. Dappledshadow and Sparrowflight beg her not to fight, but she protests. Wrenheart dies protecting the elders.

## History

### Mudstar's Clan

Wrenkit is born to Dappledshadow and Sparrowflight. She and her brother play catch-the-reed by the stream, in the Elder's Garden. It is noted that Wrenkit has powerful haunches. Wrenpaw becomes an apprentice to Grassfall, which Mudstar spends a lot of time considering. He wanted someone who would help her develop her cleverness and curiosity.

She quickly becomes a skilled fighter and tactician, but hunting is not her specialty. Her brother helps her after patrols and training.

Wrenpaw particularly enjoys listening to the elders' stories. She doesn't complain when told to change the elders' bedding for this reason.

Wrenpaw does well on her assessment. Unfortunately, Graypaw is not becoming a warrior with her. When doing the hunting portion of her assessment, she falls out of a tree when a crow fly for her face, scratching at her eyes, because she was trying to get to its egg. However, she had already caught several pieces of prey and done well on her fighting assessment, so she is allowed to become a warrior.

When the border patrol returns, they report that a wolf pack is headed for the camp. Wrenpaw insists on fighting, and dies in front of the elders' den.

When Mudstar goes to the Moonpond seeking guidance from StarClan, she mentions that she is honored as a warrior in StarClan as Wrenheart. She also tells him that *he* lives, not StarClan, but she thinks he already knows that. She asks if he came to see his mate, Cloverflower, and he does not respond.

### Life's End

She is seen when Snowpaw goes to the Moonpond with Rustlefur to get his nine lives.
