History[]

Urchin of the Riding Stars[]

I’ll fight you. One at a time. But you’ll have to lend me a sword, or it’s not fair.
―Hope when he is threatened by Husk's mercenaries

Hope is one of the young animals hiding in the Old Palace when Urchin arrived there for the first time. It's mentioned that he's almost old enough to leave, but everyone loved him so much that they couldn't send him away. Later Hope, along with Jig, Fig and Moth, finds and saves Needle when she falls into Gloss's trap.

During the Spring Festival, Hope sneaks away to visit his mother, but he runs into two mole mercenaries in the tunnels, who begin to threaten him. Luckily for him, Urchin hears suspicious sounds resonating from underground when he returns to Mistmantle and goes to investigate. Urchin saves Hope from the moles, and they head further into the tunnels, led by Hope. Urchin shares some berries with Hope, and as Hope eats them, he stains his fur with berry juice. They run into Captain Husk, who, tormented by his nightmares, believes Hope to be Prince Tumble coming to haunt him, mistaking the berry juice for blood. Terrified, Husk begins backing away in fear, and subsequently falls to his death into the pit that would later become the Chamber of Candles.

Eventually, Hope is reunited with his mother Thripple, and they are last seen building sand castles together.

Hope drops the Heartstone

Once Hope finds out that the Heartstone is missing, joins Needle, Sepia and Fingal in searching for it through the entire island. Even though his searching is unsuccessful, he collects the prettier stones he finds to give to his friends and family.

When Urchin, Juniper and Cedar arrive from Whitewings on a ship, Hope is among the animals welcoming them on shore. Hopes begins to pick pebbles for his friends again, and unknowingly finds the Heartstone among the ballast unloaded from the ship. However, when he attempts to give the Heartstone to Brother Fir, it keeps slipping from his hand, making everyone who knew of its properties realize that it was the Heartstone, much to Hope's delight.
