Random Guardians of Ga'Hoole Headcanons I Have That I May Or May Not Have Posted Here Already

Noctus and Marella suspected that Kludd was behind the disappearance of Soren and Eglantine, but they didn't do anything because 1. they were afraid of him and his friends (the Pure Ones) who stopped by whenever they were out hunting, and 2. he was still their son and they loved him and they didn't want to believe he was capable of killing his siblings.

Kludd didn't push Eglantine out of the nest like he did to Soren. A couple of Pure Ones just stopped by one day and took her straight out of the nest. Kludd told his parents and Mrs. Plithiver that she'd fallen and probably been eaten by something.

Kludd killed Noctus and Marella, or at the very least was involved in their deaths. (This might be implied canon, I don't remember.)

The rogue smith, who was also an informant for the Great Tree, who the Band found dying in The Journey, was killed by the Pure Ones because he refused to make weapons for them. (This might also be implied canon.) He was killed before he could get word to the Great Tree about the new evil rising in the owl kingdoms.

Otulissa's parents and aunt were picked off by St. Aggie's forces, who were attempting to kill as many adult owls in the region as they could, in the hopes that when they came for the owlets and eggs the nests would be nearly undefended. Fortunately for Otulissa, a Ga'Hoole patrol found her first.

Silver and Smutty are brothers.

Eglantine was haunted for the rest of her life by the events of The Shattering; the betrayal of an owl she believed to be her best friend, the lost hope that her parents were alive, her being essentially mind-controlled. She has nightmares.

Bell was haunted for the rest of her life by the events of Exile; her father's exile, the vanity cult, the book burnings, the owl burnings, the Striga - an owl who had once saved her life and who she saw as a trusted mentor - threatening to kill her, the loss of Otulissa's eye. She blames herself for all this, since she brought the Striga to the Great Tree. She also has nightmares.

Sometimes, Bell and Eglantine talk about this.

Between Exile and the War of the Ember, Coryn and Bell had a talk about owls you trust (in her case, a trusted mentor, in his case, his own mother) betraying you.

Eglantine always wanted a mate and owlets of her own (she especially wanted to name owlets after her parents) but she never found the right owl to become mates with. She compensated for this by being the best aunt ever to her nephew and nieces.

Pelli is 401-2.

Soren and Gylfie had nightmares about St. Aggie's for the rest of their lives. To their dying day, the sight of the full moon made them uneasy.

Bell: Ah, so you finally hear the call of adventure, eh?

Bash: No!

Bell: The gadfeather song of the unknown?

Blythe: Of course not! I heard MUM say I have to! She said that since YOU’RE going, we have to go along to keep an eye on you!

At St. Aggie’s, Soren witnesses the hatching of a young female Barn Owl chick “named” 401-2. He later describes this hatching as the worst thing he ever experienced.

What if 401-2 grew up to be a good moonblinked soldier of St. Aggie’s? And what if one day while out looking in Ambala for eggs to kidnap her patrol was attacked by owls defending their young?

Several owls were killed, and several more escaped. 401-2 was taken prisoner.

Eventually, the owls of Ambala realized that 401-2 had been raised in St. Aggie’s since birth, and, as if that wasn’t enough, also moonblinked. And that was how they realized what the fate of their eggs and owlets would have been.

They kept her from sleeping under the full moon, and eventually, she was unmoonblinked.

They showed her that owls can be good. That there is a life outside St. Aggie’s. They told her stories.

And eventually, she chose a new name for herself, not a number. She was not an owl of St. Aggie’s anymore. She was her own owl.

She was Pellimore.
