MAJOR SPOILERS FOR A LIGHT IN THE MIST

Chapter 18: Page 267
"I'm sorry. Her mind grew hazy. But we beat him. We destroyed Ashfur. We saved the clans. Thoughts of Rootspring filled her mind. He was pressing beside her beneath a spreading willow, the warmth of him seeping into her fur. Was it a dream or a memory? She couldn't tell. Now they were hunting, running through the forest, side by side, so close their pelts touched. And then she saw herself cocooned with him in a nest. Had they shared one after all? Surely they had, she thought, with a rush of love. Tails intertwined, they were gazing proudly at three tiny kits. Of course it was real. Of course these were memories of the life they must have shared. 
The cold gripped her seemed at last to let her go. She closed her eyes and in her last moment felt only warmth. Only love."

I am upset.
After much thought tho, I do think that Bristle dying was probably the best thing for the arc.

Think about it, at the beginning, was being taken advantage of Ashfur when he was ion Bramblestar's body. He abused her the same way he abused Shadowsight. He took advantage of her youth and drive to be a good warrior. Bristlefrost being the one taking him down once and for all makes the most sense; I don't like her being completely gone but I don't disagree with it. It was super impactful reading her death in her POV, I actually cried rereading that scene and chapters after. 
I actually really liked Root x Bristle and I was really hoping they would get their happy ending. Their visions of their "would be" future with three children really broke me?? They're so young and I will never stop sobbing. 

IVYPOOL!! Her reaction to what happened to her daughter,,,, ouch
Brave, strong, girl-boss, Ivypool absolutely breaks down at the news. 

It's just the fact that,,, she's just gone. She's not in StarClan, she's not in the Dark Forest, she's not a ghost. She's just gone. They'll never see her again and that shit hurts

This part was so sad! To be honest, when I read that part I started crying.
