- credit for the idea of a riverclan cat dying while hunting a pike fish goes to detective-eli.

- pikeheart is a brown-gray spotted tabby tom with yellow eyes.

- yes, pike fish are huge. i'll add a picture to this chapter of one.

- this story takes place multiple years after alderheart and all his kin are dead.

- pikeheart is slightly reclusive in starclan since he doesn't know many cats.

- silverstar greeted pikeheart in starclan because none of his friends or kin had died at that point.
