Description Go now, little one, and walk with warriors.

Nothing like a sad speedpaint binge on YouTube to make you realize how much you miss drawing Warriors.

Poor little Badgerpaw. Without a doubt, this scene ranks as one of the three saddest moments in the entire series. I realized I'd never drawn it and just had to fix that before my impulse control could stop me. (I now realize this is a pretty bleak way for me to start the new year. Sorry about that.)

So, here's Badgerpaw, killed at three moons old on WindClan territory because he was simply too young to survive his first battle. His grieving mentor, Flintfang, sits by his side and assures him he fought brilliantly; Badgerpaw's dying wish is that StarClan will let him choose the warrior name Badgerfang after his wonderful mentor. Thus the littlest warrior reminds us why we must honor the warrior code.

I debated putting a mature content filter on this; I decided against it because I figure Warriors fans are probably pretty desensitized, but I'll add one if anyone thinks it's necessary. Because, you know, dead kitten.

I too have been caught on a bit of a Warriors nostalgia trip~

This looks great, Tazie! Love the way you did the lighting and atmosphere; tbh moments like this make me want to pick up and read the books again

Ahh, thank you! I'm pretty proud of the lighting, if I do say so myself.
I know, the temptation to jump back in is becoming kinda hard to resist. I'm waaaay behind on the books now . . . maybe it's about time to do something about that

You and me both lol
The last book I read was the last one in the fourth arc like four years ago; that's a lot to catch up on ^^'

I've fallen behind on so many other book series too because I just don't have the time ;w;

Same here. I thought I would lose interest after the fourth arc, and for a while I did, but I keep seeing art from the newer books and I'm getting curious again

Ain't that the truth. It's really upsetting. Glad to know I'm not the only one with that problem . . .

I keep seeing people draw this scene but I have a question and it may sound stupid ;w;
What book does this take place? ;3;

To be more exact it does take place in Yellowfang's Secret, but the entire scene is only mentioned after Flintfang returns with Badgerfang's body after the fight. If you want to actually read the scene the field guide(code of the clans or ultimate field guide) are your best bets. It's actually quite sad and folks on YouTube have even animated it. After Badgerfang's tragic death Flintfang vows to never mentor any kit that should still be in the nursery, snuggled by their mother and playing with their littermates and suckling.

This doesn't actually take place in any of the main books. It's in Code of the Clans, one of the field guides.
