"We were tracking that squirrel across SkyClan territory. It only veered into ShadowClan at the last moment. And we chased it for fox-lengths! Why should our hard work be wasted because the squirrel decided to turn in a different direction? […] What did you think? That you got lucky and a squirrel just happened to jump into your paws?" |
— Ridgeglow to Tawnypelt in The Elders' Quest, page 199 |
Ridgeglow is a reddish[1]-auburn[3] she-cat with a white nose.[1]
Ridgeglow is a SkyClan warrior under Leafstar's leadership in the lake territories. She was born to Blossomheart and Harrybrook as Ridgekit alongside her littermate, Duskkit. As a kit, she was stolen by RiverClan under Splashtail's orders. After earning her warrior name, Ridgeglow, she fell in love with Birchfeather of ShadowClan, who joined SkyClan to be with her.
History[]
In the A Starless Clan arc[]
River[]
- Ridgekit is a SkyClan kit born to Blossomheart and Harrybrook alongside her brother, Duskkit.
Star[]
- When Mothwing and Duskfur are brought to ThunderClan, Frostpaw notices Duskkit and Ridgekit chewing on a mouse behind them. The two tell Frostpaw their names, and Ridgekit asks questions as the Clans decide what to do. Soon after, Duskfur explains how she came across the kits, and Squirrelstar sends a patrol to alert Leafstar of Ridgekit and Duskkit's safety. In RiverClan, Nightheart tries to sway Fognose with questions about whether she stole the kits to avoid a cruel name from Splashtail. Sparkpelt finds Sunbeam in ShadowClan and explains that Nightheart stopped RiverClan warriors from stealing SkyClan's kits. When Nightheart finds Sunbeam, he learns that Ridgekit and Duskkit made it safely to Mothwing and Duskfur.
- While in a vision, Frostpaw sees down into the SkyClan nursery where Blossomheart is reunited with and comforting her kits.
In the Changing Skies arc[]
The Elders' Quest[]
- "You try hunting on SkyClan territory these days and then say [you'll find something else]."
- ―Ridgeglow to Tawnypelt The Elders' Quest, page 201
- Later, Ridgeglow and Tawnypelt encounter each other on patrol in an argument over prey. Tawnypelt argues that the prey ran over into ShadowClan territory and was now hers, and Ridgeglow argues back that she chased it over there. As they continue to bicker, Ridgeglow escalates and leaps onto Tawnypelt, pinning her down before Tawnypelt rakes her claws across her and knocks her off. Birchfeather interjects, and Ridgeglow reminds him how much they need prey for the Clan, as they were sent out together to find it for his task to join. She continues to argue with Tawnypelt over the squirrel before they eventually leave.
