I’m enjoying reviewing the reasons for the warrior code again. And the next short story in this book after this one is one of the ones that shows a code in practice. Those ones are always a fun read.
I got a fair bit done today too, so this post should be up very early. If you’re a paid member, you would have access the moment it went up.
Here is the summary essay for the short story Finders Keepers, from the guidebook Code of the Clans.
The main theme in the short story, Finders Keepers, is seperation. It looks maily at the borders between the Clans. There is a dipute over when they can be crossed. StarClan shows that the Clans are always seperate, evern when right next to each other. The “borders may be invisible and thin as a whisker, but…they cannot be crossed.” pg 23. It was decided by the leaders to add a rule to the warrior code to ensure cats stayed within their borders.
Finders Keepers, from the guidebook Code of the Clans, is told from the point of view of Stonestar of WindClan. All the other leaders are present, but the conflict is between the two other main characters, Whitestar of ThunderClan, and Brindlestar of ShadowClan. Stonestar is often the voice of reason between them, and so also plays a major role. These are all of the three main characters.
The main situations are listed here. The leaders of the Clans meet on the full moon. Brindlestar says his warriors have a right to cross territories to find food. Many other cats disagree and an argument breaks out. A branch falls between the Clan warriors in the clearing. The leaders find that each Clan is safe. The branch is seen as a sign that even when the Clans are close togther they are seperate. The leaders agree to add a new rule to the warrior code about this.
I hope you are enjoying these. Remeber paid members get access the moment I finish them and post them.
Keep on reading.
