Ferretwing's idealistic afterlife is a place among StarClan where he has come to peace with himself and others. He wants all the problems he had during his life to be solved during his afterlife, and have at least some sort of peace between anyone he may have hurt. However, he understands this will definitely be a challenging task and is more than willing to put forth the effort to fix these problems, no matter the consequence.
One problem he wishes to change is an argument with his mother the day before she died. He was a grown male and became very rebellious, stealing from others and then lying about it. One day, his mother found him stealing prey from a she-cat with kits and she told him off for it, explaining how cruel it was and how he must stop or he'll be cursed forever.
Ferretwing didn't believe her and ate the prey, though the next day he found his mother dead and believe it was his fault. He, in a way to redeem himself, caught prey for the she-cat and her kits and stayed with them until the kittens were old enough to go off on their own. That's when the group split up and Ferretwing went on his travels, eventually coming across CreekClan, a group of cats who lived together in a clan.
Taking what he had learned, he did his best to be caring and helpful to his clanmates, but he didn't truly think it was enough. He worked himself to exhaustion for his clanmates, barely took anything from the freshkill pile, and didn't let Snowheart treat any of his wounds. This was until the day Briarstar told him that while it is good to give instead to take, he must also live a life of balance. He must take things that he needs, and be willing to take things he is given as well. Stealing is different. It took Ferretwing a bit to believe Briarstar's words, but he eventually did and became a stronger cat because of it.
