| "It's really important that you get this right, Earth. Did you do something to offend the land? Is that why it won't talk to you? Did you...make dirt in the wrong place, maybe?" |
| — Ice teasing Earth in Tree's Roots, chapter 1 |
Ice is a she-cat with green eyes.[2]
History[]
In the A Vision of Shadows arc[]
Thunder and Shadow[]
- In the bonus scene, Tree tells Needlepaw that his mother had left him to fend for himself before he could even hunt and had taken his sick sister with her.
In The Broken Code arc[]
Darkness Within[]
- "Sunrise had another littermate besides Tree, called Ice. But she left us to travel with her mate. We miss her, of course, but we're not angry she chose him over us, and if she ever wants to return, we will welcome her without question. You make it sound like loving a tom is betraying your Clan."
- ―Snow about Ice to Bristlefrost and Needleclaw Darkness Within, page 203
In the Novellas[]
Tree's Roots[]
- Ice is a kit of the Sisters and one of Earth's sisters, along with Sunrise. She and Sunrise tease their brother, albeit in a friendly manner, when he fails to connect with the land as Sister-toms are supposed to. When Earth comes of age, Ice becomes very sick and thus is unable to say goodbye to her brother when he is forced out of the Sisters. The next day, when the Sisters move on, Earth sees them stop to let Ice rest and later keep her in the middle of the group.
- Later, Ice, now fully recovered, confronts Earth just outside the Sisters' camp. She is surprised to see him, as their mother told her they probably would not see him again for a long time. Earth reveals that he is lonely, sad, and vulnerable with his kin, and wishes to return to the Sisters. Ice sympathizes with her brother's feelings, but insists that he needs to continue his wander and suggests that he search for other Sister-toms. When Earth accuses the Sisters of not knowing or caring about what happens to the toms after they are cast out, Ice insists that they do care, but that sending away toms is a tradition that must be upheld. Ultimately, Earth admits that he cannot return, and Ice bids him farewell, hoping to see her brother again someday.
- Ten moons later, Earth, now Tree, tells Pebbleshine a false version of his past, in that his mother left him to get Ice to Twopaws and that she thought they would have a better chance with only herself and Ice.
