"Farewell, and I Love You"

Here were are; the last proper issue of Pinepaw and the Forgotten World. As I've said before, I have a series of ten epilogues planned which will wrap up all of the main characters' lives, so the comic is not quite done yet. Hence I'll save all the rambly, sappy stuff for that final epilogue.

The epilogues will begin posting on January 7th, and will post twice-weekly on Tuesday and Friday until they're finished. The first three are already available on my Patreon if you're interested.

For now, I just want to say - thank you so much to everyone who has read and shared my comic. It's meant a lot to me. I hope you all liked it.

May I blend Cootstorm from the Warrior Cats fan webcomic Pinepaw and the Forgotten World?

Cootstorm from Pinepaw and the Forgotten World is being blended!!

You cannot save her.

Coot propaganda, because she came to live in my head and refuses to pay any rent:

she's her mothers' daughter, in the most devastating way possible.

She took Cypressfoot's stories of Roseclan and Nightberry's right predictions and made herself into a preacher. She genuinely believes everything she says.

She believed she was born dead since she was a tiny kit and that she needed to repent for it. She wanted to help and be useful, and that was why she wished to be a healer!

And had grown so bitter by the end of it all she didn't recognise the same desire in Pine.

She didn't know what was the difference between her and Nightberry, that she simply didn't have the same power her mother had! She realises that she never truly lived for herself, and that maybe she could have been doing something that made her happy instead of repentance in the epilogue!!

She's been miserable her entire life. She knew her mothers had them out of obligation, not love. She cares about her sisters but shows it either by scorn or by doing her duties as a healer. Her storyline is open-ended; does she go away? does she stay? does she find happiness?

Coot prop ‼️

"Our Lasting Legacy"

Finally, our apprentices who were once so small have grown into their warrior names! I hope you give Redstar, Pinewing, Cormorantleaf, Daffodilcloud, and Asphodelshine a very hearty welcome. I won't be changing the tags of any of the characters, though, just to preserve continuity.

I've mentioned it before, and it should already be abundantly clear in the comic, but leaders in this comic do not have nine lives. The leader title and oath is purely ceremonial.

This is the second to last issue of PATFW! However, I've been very busy and haven't gotten much time to work on the last one, so it'll likely be a longer than usual time until it comes out. I will be posting it earlier on my Patreon once it's done, but I don't have a good idea of when that will be yet. Please have patience. I want to wrap this story up right.

"Aftermath"

Bit of a shorter issue, but I wanted to mix it up with a different format. Let's take a second to process and grieve.

The flowers on the cover are mallow (Mallowstar), cypress (Cypressfoot), and asphodels (Rainhaze).

As a reminder, I've begun offering early previews of the next issue on my Patreon, under the $5+ tiers. Issue 41 will be posting there early next week.

"The Death of BarrenClan: Part Five"

And with that, the "Death of BarrenClan" arc comes to an end! Thank you all for reading along and for the wonderful response to each issue.

The comic is not over yet; there are four issues left, plus a series of epilogues, where our cast will have to mourn their losses, pick up the pieces of their lives, and figure out what to do next.

For the last few issues of the comic, I've also decided to offer an early release of the next issue on my Patreon at the $5 and above tier. It'll post in a few days, and if there's continuing interest in this, I'll do the same for the last issues after the preceding one is publicly released.

Here's the link to my Patreon.
