HOLY SHIT I COOKED UP ON THIS SOMEHOW IDK HOW- THE BACKGROUND AND CRYSTAL POSE IS CHEFS KISS
Holy chopped quality bro
anywho lets get to talking abt it since i have motivation.(ima say who she is first then get to why she’s protecting Bird)
Crystal is a FallenSouls cat who was never supposed to be there. She was mates with SunCatcher but never had any kits. She was murdered by Nero, SunCatcher was too. In the Zenith Fates trial, the stars told SunCatcher to confess to a crime he committed long ago, but he blamed Crystal instead out of panic. Crystal didn’t believe in the stars then so the stars couldn’t see her and the truth. They trusted SunCatcher and banished her to the FallenSouls.
When in the FallenSouls, your soul gets corrupted but somehow Crystals didn’t. She dreamed of kits she never had, but when she found Bird, she was like the daughter she never had so she became a mother figure to Bird and ended up helping Bird get away from Nero.
Bird and Nero were training and Bird was getting torn apart by him(like she was being bruised badly because she can’t get hurt in the FallenSouls hence her injuries turn into bad bruises except for one time. Crystal jumped in and tore Nero off her and attacking him, promising that she wouldn’t make the same mistake twice
what was this mistake? Well….
when SunCatcher and Crystal were together, SunCatcher was a highly respected member of a vicious group(for ex: liek Scourges or Darktail’s) one day she was invited to come, and onyl the strongest members survived. She witnessed SunCatcher himself tear appart and kill a mother and her kits. This haunted Crystal even to this very moment.
SunCatcher later left this past behind, but the stars and Crystal never forgot.
Oh and since she js in the FallenSouls land, no spirits are transparent, they inly are in the overworld(jsyk
