i'm honestly curious if someone will ever venture into this particular AU; after all, it seems, thistleclaw's ambition to become leader could have led to a couple of things, not just him 'ruining everything and making the forest run with blood'. after all, we've seen a couple of battle-hungry leaders, and they've all managed to seal their names in the history of the clans without becoming known as the 'big bad'. i mean, what was the worst thistleclaw could have done as leader? try to bind all four clans into one like tigerclaw? i doubt that, considering he seems to hate other clans and is ferociously protective of borders. tried to take over the forest? i doubt he'd succeed if the three other clans bound together to fight back. bring rogues or loners to the clan? that would actually better the bloodlines, as long as they were loyal.
...honestly, this au is very interesting and one i would greatly enjoy to see detailed out. there's so many interesting possible variables to come from a single change. bluestar wouldn't have to give up her kits. maybe she could have joined riverclan with them and become a riverclan cat. maybe oakheart would have become leader after crookedstar. maybe thunderclan would become allies with shadowclan during brokenstar's reigns. there is a multitude of things that could occur, and a variety of cats who may never even be born or enter the clans - firestar one of them. with thistleclaw as leader, firestar would never have even entered the clans, considering thistleclaw's hatred of kittypets and his lack of morality in attacking and nearly killing a small kit-sized kittypet.
aaaand i've gone on a tangent. this is a great art piece, and a great idea!
