The Beginning
In the beginning, the first medicine cats were sought out by The Three. Hand selected by Starclan for their affinity with Stars. For Eagleclan, the chosen cat was once called Celeste, and she was the first to make contact with the spirit guardian of the Eagle, Flores. Celeste was renamed Tallwillow by the ancestors of old, and tasked to find the new leader of Eagleclan. She would guide their new leader to the next full moon Gathering, and back to the Starpool to receive their lives.
"I am the wind that can blow over even the strongest of trees in a storm. I am the breeze that carries pollen so that the plants may grow. I am all seeing. All knowing. And my talons will carry away those that are deemed worthy unworthy from this world... I am Flores.... And I am here to give you the first message of many that you will receive.
-Flores, Spirit Eagle
Though blind, Tallwillow was persistent in the search for her new leader. The two met during her wanderings, and even without knowing the color of Sweet's pelt, it was clear that the sweet molly was destined to be leader. Together they arrived at the Gathering of Creation to appoint the first deputy of Eagleclan, and guide the moorland cats to their new camp among the hills.
"Listen to my words, future cats of Eagleclan. I have chosen my deputy and now have a name for them, a warrior name, as you all will soon have."
"The cat I have chosen is optimistic, kind and loyal already. They will make a fine deputy to our Clan and I'd like them to step forward for you now. Caterpillar, you will now be known as Caterpillartoes. And I now name you as Eagleclan's deputy."
