The Isaac stories open (cf. v.11) with a final statement regarding the line of Ishmael, consisting of a genealogy of the twelve leaders of Ishmael's clan, a report of the length of his life, and a report of his death.

And because of that we'll be the most powerful cats in RiverClan one day, and our Clanmates will have to respect us then.
