I can’t remember if I made this post but I just hate the idea that StarClan turned Owlnose away. If StarClan can turn anyone away, then why did they give Tigerstar and Brokenstar their nine lives? They must have known how bad those cats were, right? It couldn’t have been because Owlnose wasn’t chosen as deputy by the previous leader and so then technically not approved by StarClan, but Tigerstar wasn’t chosen by a leader either! He was chosen by a medicine cat! So was Owlnose too! An apprentice, yeah, but would that not still count? I know that Runningnose was acting as the temporary leader of ShadowClan but so were Frostpaw and Mothwing. I can’t tell if Owlnose being turned away is new lore an inconsistency. It’s so confusing, I’ll just say inconsistency
