Who:

Ciocan- Badger Lord

Velm- Lt and Healer in LP

Vonda- Hare Maid

Kelp- Otter Cub

LOG:

Ciocan decided to come see the two guests Lt. Velm brought in." They are from where?"

Velm replies." The hare maid said an otter holt, seems they took her in some seasons ago.The otter with her is just a dibbun and her adopted little brother sur "

Ciocan nods and knocks on the guest room door before slowly opening it.

Kelp is the first to notice and his eyes go wide. " Vonda….Vonda look, look he super super tall!." The otter cub gets closer." You must of listened to your parents and ate all your veggies."

Vonda looks over and up, she blinks and nods " Hello sir."

Velm waves." This is Lord Ciocan, ruler of Salamanstron. " He then excuses himself and slips out to tend to what ever he may need to tend to.

Ciocan smiles at Kelp and chuckles," Hello young one." He looks to Vonda." I hope your stay will be pleasant,  Lt. Velm mentioned you might need help."

Kelp sits down with a frown, he decides Vonda can tell him, she is an adult and the otter is not.

Vonda feels the tears."Not unless you can change the past and….bring back my holt, I know they are not my real but they took me in after mom and dad...died when our fishing boat sank. I sort of wandered into the otter holt and they adopted me...and now….now..they are gone now too."

Ciocan frowns at this news." A couple scouts mentioned a small settlement that burned to the ground and signs of vermin.  I have yet to know a direction. " But remembering the dream,  he had a very bad feeling he would soon find out where the vermin were headed next.

Kelp frowns.' Bad beasts need...need told go far far away. "

Vonda sniffed. " Why...why would bad things happen to good beasts? First my birth parents and then  my adopted family."

Ciocan goes to give the hare a gentle hug." I wish  I knew sometimes. " He studies her." Who were your birth parents?"

Kelp looks at Ciocan and just how tall he is and grins at an idea...a cool one in his mind.

Vonda tries to remember Jak and Terra Barclay...why?"

Ciocan tilts his head, " I will be right back." He is gone maybe 20 minutes and returns with a slightly old scroll ." I keep records, as do those before me. This...was a couple seasons after a mission .." He frowns, so many lost.He clears his throat and reads." Spring has come but what is normally a happy day is sad. Two hares from the home guard were found washed ashore with their small fishing boat, Jak and Terra Barclay, both Privates will be missed, what is most sad is their daughter was lost at sea….to have one so young lose life, is the safest thing." He looks at her." The child was near 4 seasons old...her name was Vonda Barclay. "

Kelp blinks as he is about to pull on Ciocan's  arm." She name Vonda too!." He points to his sister. " Buts her last name is the same as me, .Swiftstreamer."

Vonda starts crying now.."I...I remember a..little  " This place seemed so familiar, the beach too as she walked along to get here, just so odd messed up memory, she never understood why this mountain just seemed so familiar, she played in its halls!

Ciocan hugs her and nods." Welcome home, Vonda."

Kelp blinks and taps Ciocan's arm." Hey, can me stay too?"

Vonda smiles, but also frowns slightly. Is this still home? She should be happy but she..isn't.

Ciocan smiles. " Oh course...and your?"

Kelp grins. " I is Kelp." He looks up and smiles. " can you lift me up high? I wanna touch celling."

Vonda wipes her eyes." Kelp…..he likely has very important things ta do."

Ciocan chuckles and goes to lift the  otter cub to indeed let the cub touch the ceiling.

Kelp giggles and reaches up and slaps the ceiling, then sticks his tongue out at his sister.

Vonda shakes her head but smiles.

Ciocan places Kelp back on the floor." Dinner is about to start, let me escort you two there."

Kelp grins." Ya...dinner in a mountain, come on Vonda."

Vonda smiles as she goes to follow, but it's only a half smile. A home...it sounded great and this was...her true home, but she didn't feel like it was, something….no someone was missing and could never join her here, a frown forms but she forced a smile and heads on to dinner with the others.

Who:

Zolomon- Archer, Quick Runner, Bodyguard

Vonda- Hare Maid

Kelp- Otter Dibbun

Rufus- LP messager, fighter

Velm( Briefly at end log) Lt., Healer in LP

Log:

Zolomon knew from training to stay where the sand is wet, as tide and just normal waves will erase clues of walking.He would let Kelp hang onto his back and carry Vonda. Right now he rested.

Vonda sighs." Zolomon, maybe you should just let us walk.You done this run and rest for almost 3 days now."

Kelp jumps up and down." He go zoom zoom zoom." A small giggle, least something had cheered him.

Zolomon frowns." Tis better...faster.I...I don't want to see you hurt, or worse."

Vonda gives him a hug and kiss on the check as she smiles." I feel safe with you." She looks upshore." Do you..think that horrible horde will come this way?"

Kelp frowns, then makes a fist." I punch them...alot."

High above the beach, something circles and lands with a loud yark! It's Rufus!

Zolomon sighs and then glares at Rufus." Your loud...shoo."

Vonda gasps and hides behind Zolomon." Oh be careful, gulls can be dangerous."

Kelp just stares at the bird."Its a bird…"

Rufus tilts his head." Friend Zolo bunny.?"

Zolomon snorts, and sighs." Yes..and dont tell the others you seen me."

Vonda blinks. " You two..know each other?"

Kelp grins." Zolo...mon have a bird as buddy ya."

Rufus mutters, puffs up and then smooths out his feathers." Fine..Rufus do."

In the distance, jogging is a hare in a Lt. Uniform.

Zolomon frowns. He looks at Vonda…" I….." He seems unwilling to go, he gives her a hug." You're safe...stay inside Salamanstron. " He then spends off.

Vonda frowns, though a smile at the hug, but so many thoughts, will she see him again? Will he be safe while she is inside this mountain? Why does he believe everyone hates him, unless they do, but has a feeling some likely still like him and maybe are even worried

Kelp frowns." Why he go bye bye?"

Rufus decides to fly after Zolomon.

The hare that was jogging now gets there, he pants and blinks.." wot?...was that...naaa." He turns to Vonda and Kelp." You two alright?" Velm is his name, Lt. Velm.

Vonda let's tears fall." No, not really."

Kelp frowns." Bad beasts …..they...they make holt all gones."

Velm frowns. " Holt….with huts?" He had got one scout to sort of speak, all he got was a settlement with huts burned to ground.He nods." Let's get you two jolly well to and inside Salamandastron,  I
have a bad feeling it's not gonna be very safe to be out too long after dark." He will lead then to Salamandastron,  get them a meal and a room . Let them rest a couple days before he maybe gets some info from them, if they have info on a possible troubling group, the Long Patrol needed to know.

Zolomon had his cloak on and over his head, he watched silent, still as he laid on a sand dunes with some sand on him, he then slide down and sighs, a couple tears fall. Did he do the right thing? He seems to believe he did, they will be safe...she will be safe and you can't follow anyways your not allowed inside and it's all your fault.He frowns, he heads slowly to a sort of cave by some rocks he knows of,  safe from high tide and from unwanted guests, he can even hide the entry a little. He then lays down to sleep, Vonda was right, he was seriously worn out.

Oz had slipped away while they were celebrating. He got a fair distance, then took a chance and ran!

Zoltar stepped out of his tent and when he didn't see the badger  he hisses ears back.He speaks an eerie calm." Someone find my cub….NOW!"

Shadowlight sighs, she jab a horde beast beside." You...new guy, come with me ."

The new beast was a monitor as he scratched his back and shrugs." Finzzzzz " He then went to follow the rat.

Zoltar stormed back inside his tent, he ewewasn't very happy and that was always a bad and dangerous thing.

Oz meanwhile had no clue where to go, he only knew the river lead to home and he could follow that and hope for the best.

Shadowlight looked around and found the tracks, " Let's go.."

The monitor, named Jaws just snorts. " I am mizzzzzing breakfast causzzzz of thizzzzz"

Oz meanwhile made it to the area when the river ran into the sea.He frowned at the swift current and choppy waves.

Shadowlight could walk fast and soon.." Hey brat!!!! Get back here right now!"

Jaws looked towards the badger cub." Can I have him for breakfast ? Please….I worked for a slaver,  he let me eat escaped slaves." Well most of them, a couple did escape.

Oz eyes widen when he sees the monitor and panics. He looks around and soon finds the otters log bridge and goes to run across it. He screams when he trips and falls with a splash into the rapid waters.

Shadowlight quickly goes over and then backs off, the log was seriously slippery where the high tide would wash over it, in low tide one could cross over as long as they walked and didn't run, it was possible for 4 rows of beasts to be on it and still have room to not worry on being bumped into the rapid waters.

Jaws frowns." Well darn...nozzzzzz the fishzzzzzzzz will eat him."

Shadowlight shakes her head." Zoltar is gonna be furious…..unless."

Jaws tail goes back and forth.." Lezzzzzzz wha?"

Rockpaw had gone to check on them but stayed off to the side listening.

Shadowlight smirks. " Here what to.6ite you...so today this...he..bite you so you ate him."

" He bite me earierzzzzz…. but not gonna go into waterzzzzzzz." Jaws states.

Rockpaw edges closer.

Shadowlight rolls her eyes. " Your not gonna really eat him, but if you tell Zoltar .e cub got away or we let him 4...Zoltar will ...US…..both of us."

Jaws nods,and frowns " You owezzzzzz me breakfast."

Rockpaw comes out." I am soooooooo telling Zoltar. Ya both gonna die." He cackles and  walks off.

Shadowlight  blinks." Not...good."

Jaws then shows just how quick and deadly a monitor can be. He is fast as well and gets to Rockpaw, he sinks his fangs into the helpless horde beast. He didn't give him time to react or even scream.Oh and he doesn't need for anyone to owe him breakfast, it sees Rockpaw helped with that as the monitor now enjoys breakfast.

Shadowlight watches horrified. " Well just...don't  clean up afterwards...Zoltar will need proof, he doesn't need to know it wasn't the badger cub." And everyone hated Rockpaw anyways.

Down shore, by some miracle Oz has washed up on shore.  He is very much alive and vomited up like what felt like a ton of salty water.He is soaked and shivers, his ankle is possibly broken but he limps off, he has to get out of here before the wrong best finds him. He limps downshore slowly.

Who:

Felicity - Sargeant, Runner

Zolomon- Sergeant and Runner ( when this icly happen anyways.)..Archer

This Icly happen right before Zolomon learned his fate from  Lord Ciocan

....

Zolomon sat on the cot, the room a plain, just the cot, in the room.No windows just...its plain and here he sits as the Badger Lord decided after lunch be best.The hare snorts and lays down to stare at the very boring plain ceiling.

Felicity has been concerned for her friend, and while she's sad he got himself in trouble, she's glad he's back safely.  She takes a trip to visit him before he is punished...she dreads what will happen to him.  She nods to the guard, then enters the room, closing the door behind her.  "Zolomon, I'm so glad y'alright.  I've been so worried 'bout you."

Zolomon looks over at the doorway "Yeah....back"His voice monotone..."Lt. Velm is seriously annoying...then so is Elbio....like good grief."

Felicity looks sad, but she decides to let it slide.  "It's good t'see you....'lthough I miss y'old self.  Did y' 'ear any good jokes y'wanna share?"  She sits on the edge of his cot, trying to smile, but it doesn't reach her eyes.  "Did y'see any o' y'friends while y'were in Redwall?"

Zolomon rolls his eyes "Jokes? And no real friends thar.."He seems to look to be thinking about this and snorts again."Keep me in some old office  like 4 days,then only  let me out cause  de father Abbot told em' to...well least a couple days till..marched back here..."He crosses his arms"Whatever"

Felicity furrows her brows.  She figures the Badger Mother is alive -- they would've heard if she had died, right? -- but she decides to press Zolomon.  "Wasn't Krisha there?  Isn't she okay?  I thought she was your friend.  And what about DoraRose?  Or even the Abbot?"

Zolomon glaces at her as the names are mentioned "They were thar....spoke to me some." He starts to frown  a little but it's only briefly.

Felicity smiles a little.  "Oh, good.  I don't think they would've talked to you if they weren't y'friends.  Did they seem well?"  She's trying to get through his walls.  She doesn't know if he's listening or not.

Zolomon says, "why ya so interested...not much at Redwall and didn't get ta go to the feast...then again neither did Velm and.."He rolls his eyes "Donica.."

"Because I'm worried 'bout you!  I want t'make sure y'saw some friends while y'were there.  Y'need your friends 'round you."  Felicity is getting a little frustrated.  She just wants him to be his normal self.

Zolomon snorts , he is silent a long while and then speaks"No.."He says..."I..don't.." He seems to have a little trouble with the last word.

Felicity looks sad again.  "Yes, y'do.  We all do.  'Tis the way we're made.  'Tis th' only way t' 'eal an' be whole."  She pauses, then adds, "I'm y'friend."

Zolomon nods slowly as if agreeing with her.He sighs and stands to pace some." I'll probably just be off duty like a...season or something. " well least he is talking a little .
.
Felicity is actually a little surprised, but no way is she gonna show it!  "Prob'ly."  She thinks it's actually going to be way worse than that, but no point in bursting his bubble.  "I wondah what they'll be 'avin' y'do 'roud th'Mountain durin' tha' time, if they 'ave y'do anythin'.

Zolomon just snorts.." Probably keep me in this room , seems popular...keep him in a room." He shakes his head.

Felicity cocks an eyebrow.  "I thought y'said they let y'outta th'room at Redwall.  Whot did y'do thah?"  She thinks for a moment.  "Maybe they'll let y' 'elp in th'kitchens or wi' th'leverets or somethin'." 

Zolomon says, "They didnt want ta let me out..should of knocked Elbio out is wot should of done.."

Felicity purses her lips.  "I don't think y'mean that, Zolomon.  The Zolomon I know is kind an' wouldn't do that, 'tis a fact."  She watches him.  "What did y'do 'round th'Abbey aftah they let y'out of th'old office?"

Zolomon just looks away then speaks. " I had ta stay by Mother Krisha's side..she was in charge of me till...Velm and Donica beought me back, they were annoying the whole way up...oh well, Velm will learn suppose."

Felicity ignores his complaints about people being annoying again.  "Did y' 'ave a nice time wi' Krisha?"  She's trying to keep him communicating.  At least he's actually talking to her and not giving her attitude.

Zolomon shrugs. " Don't call...guarded a good time." He doesn't  mention any talking or where they walked.

Felicity snorts herself.  "Krisha doesn't seem like th'...guardin' type, unless we're talkin' 'bout 'er guardin' Dibbuns from the enemy, wot!"

Zolomon says, "well she didnt let me leave her side. suppose it were...ok, she did make de Lt. back off"

Felicity raises her eyebrows.  "Oh, really?  That sounds intimidatin', 'onsetly, 'specially for the lieutenant.  Badgahs can be terrifyin'."  She'll have to ask someone else what happened.

Zolomon shrugs."Suppose...tough..fearless.." A deep breath " Badgers are.."

Felicity nods.  "Aye....an' really, really big.  But th'ones I've know 'ave always been kind....jus' like Krisha is...right?"

Zolomon hmmmmm.." His Lordship much bigger.." His one ear sort of droops as he goes silent again.

Felicity sits silently for a moment.  "What're y'thinkin', Zolomon?  I'm 'ere t'listen, if y'need it."  The she falls silent again.

Zolomon just speaks quietly." None ya..." He stops,  had it been anyone else  he likely would of gotten rude with most other hares here.

Felicity tries to not be hurt.  But it's hard.  So she changes the subject.  "I remembah when Zinnia was 'ere.  We became friends.  She was kind an' gentle.  D'y'remembah Zinnia?  She was Xandah's mum.  She was Abbey Recordah.  I'm not sure if y'2 evah met, actually..."

Zolomon is silent  as he listens and seena to tense up at Xanders name..." I....yeah...maybe..." He is silent again and sits down breathing deeply a couple times,silent so silent. He finally looks up but one single tear does escape, he looks down quickly and clears his throat...silent now.

Felicity just listens, like she said she was here for.  When she sees his tear, she goes to hold his paw, if he'll let her.  But she continues the silence.  There's not anything she could say to make it better, and she knows it.

Zolomon oddly...lets her hold his paw. He is just silent.

Then the door opens and his head snaps up, he stares and then glares as the random hare backs up." It's...time ta see Lord Ciocan."

Zolomon stands slowly, they go to lay a paw...nope slapped away as a muttered.." I know where  ta go..." He is still follow to make sure.

Felicity holds his paw until he stands.  She stays seated on the cot, watching them go.  A tear trickles down her cheek.  The Sergeant is very worried for her friend.  She can only hope everything turns out alright in the end...

Who:

Zolomon- Archer and former Long Patrol hare

Errapel- old anicent otter, healer

Kelp- otter cub and little brother to Vonda
.
Vonda- Adopted into otter holt

Yeah its short...

Log:

Zolomon stayed unconscious for 2 days.  His eyes slowly opened and pain told him he was somehow alive.

Errapel was beside him, the ancient otter smiled." Ello to you, it's good to see you awake."

" Hes awake?" Kelp came over quickly and waved." Hey ya, I'm Kelp!"

Zolomon blinked and spoke weakly,his throat dry." Otter...holt…?"

Errapel gets him water." Small sips and no...your in my den, vonda and Kelp saved your life getting you to me."

Vonda walked in hearing voices  ." Your awake" She smiles wide as she goes to sit by Zolomon, she has her hooded cloak off and one thing is quickly noticed. She is not an otter.

Vonda is a hare!

Kelp smiles." He did not go dead."

Zolomon is just…" Your..a hare?!" He is confused." But you said your holt " He frowns, tried and sore.

Errapel gets him water and some willowbark tea. Also a bit of warm broth.

Vonda nods " yes. My parents died in a ship wreck and...I sort of wandered onto the holt and they took me in, they are family now and the otters that adopted me had Kelp a few seasons later so  he is my little brother." She adjusts the covers." You should rest Zolomon."

Zolomon nods "Yeah…" He has some tea and broth as well as water and slips into sleep.

Errapel speaks" He will live now, but it will take time to fully recover. In the meantime Vonda, you and Kelp will stay here. Those vermin still are camped close by but will likely leave in a day or two."

Kelp frowns." Bad beasts need go way"

Vonda nods, she gets a  cool rag and lays it on Zolomon's forehead and checks his bandages. She watches him sleep and then beads to bed to rest as well.

Zolomon sleeps a lot the next couple days, sipping water and veggie broth sometimes, he is glad to be alive.

Who:

Zolomon- Archer and former Long Patrol Hare

Vonda- mysterious  cloaked beast.

LOG:

Zolomon had made camp by some rocks and in his grumpiness ate all of his three day rations. Least it was spring so the cold air was mostly gone. He fell asleep curled up, holding his longbow.

While the hare slept he was being watched by a cloaked figure who started a small fire and was cooking something that smelled a little spicy.

Zolomon muttered and sniffed the air with a frown. He curled up more now not noticing anything out of place yet.

" Gee….your odd, let me sleep with de longbow like a blankie" Says a female voice." Like no sleeping bag either matey."

Zolomon was wide awake and reflects he gave the bow and reach for the arrow, not there to notch onto the longbow and then blinks,  narrowing his eyes." Who are you, wot ya doing here?"

The cloaked figure chuckles as she waves, still not showing her ID yet." Sitting...oh ya gonna shoot me with an invisible arrow, how rude. " She stirs the pot she has and gets out a bowl for her and him." Hot root?"

Zolomon stares at the bowl and snorts.He lays his bo down and takes the bowl but then hands it out to her." I want ta see you taste it first."

The stranger rolls her eyes under the cloak and takes a big bite, swallows and hands it back." See no poison...oh wait. " She gasps and grabs her throat and falls backwards…..silent a good minute and then starts laughing,a snort and sits up." Names Vonda….heee...your turn."

Zolomon watches her carefully then jumps when she suddenly gets up, when she laughs he mutters.He does eat the stew but waits before replying. "Zolomon...and you never know when someone could poison you. And didn't anyone tell you to be careful of strangers. "

Vonda dusts off her cloak." Careful of vermin, you're a hare. My papa would like you.My holt is close. "

Zolomon shakes his head." Not gonna hang out with a bunch of otters."

" Ya don't like otters?" Vonda asks. " Anyways why ya out all alone, usually I see other hares sometimes on the beach,but usually like groups."

Zolomon shakes his head." Well like was Long Patrol and I am not part of it….not anymore."

Vonda is curious" Don't hares love th he patrol."

Zolomon stands." Long story...goodby."

Vonda goes to follow." Oh come on...stay longer…"

" Vonda! Vonda lass what in the seasons." It was a tall male otter. " Had me and your mother worried sick."

Zolomon looks over and then to Vonda." Ya best head back to your holt Vonda. I have to get going."

Vonda sighs." I did find clams..and I made a small bit of hot root...papa he said he use to be a Long Patrol hare, and he has no weapons."

The tall male otter sighs and walks over to Zolomon." Wait sur...a moment please, seems you need help and my daughter will get upset if I don't help." He hands Zolomon a silver dagger, and a small craving knife." Here,  dagger make a 2nd weapon and that is a craving knife. I can tell your an archer, archers need arrows ."

Zolomon is a bit surprised and nods his thanks.He then heads on to the river that's a half day away now, he had covered some ground with running,one reason he was so tired.

Little did the hare know, but a certain cloaked figure decided to follow him……

Who:

Zolomon- Archer and now Former LP Hare

Ciocan-Badger Lord

Quinten-Recorder and General of The LP

LOG:

It's been a few days since Zolomon was returned home to the mountain. So far he has been treated with dignity and allowed to remain in a well not quite a cell but a very plain room. Now, however, the Sergeant at arms has escorted Zolomon up to a meeting room high in the mountain.

Quinten is standing next to Ciocan talking quietly as Zolomon is marched in and pointed toward a bench to sit on and wait until they are ready for him.

Zolomon grumbled with the hare at first and then let himself be lead to the meeting room. He slowly sat down on the bench that he was asked to sit on and waits.

Ciocan finishes talking quietly with the General and glances toward Zolomon then turns and walks out of the room. Leaving Zolomon alone with the General, a couple of lower-ranked aides, and the guards.

The general considers Zolomon for a moment then shakes his head and turns back to one of his aides, talking quietly to them. Seems they cannot continue until his Lordship returns. 

Zolomon watches as Ciocan walks off and looks towards Quinten slightly confused. He starts to speak but decides it's best not to speak right now. He crosses his arms over his chest and just takes a deep breath, it's likely very wise for him to just stay quiet right now or he likely just get himself into more trouble than he is in already.

Ciocan returns after about fifteen minutes, he is dressed in a simple bronze tunic and moves to stand at the podium. He nods to Quinten and the hare lifts his voice, "Will the prisoner Zolomon please step forward," He indicates a spot before the podium where the badger lord is waiting.

Zolomon stands and goes to where he is told, he does mutter slightly at the word prisoner and looks at the floor a few moments before finally looking up at the Badger Lord. He straightens up a little and waits to see what is said. He has mostly behaved since he been back..except for when he got annoyed at Lt. Velm and ended up knocking the Lt. out when the Lt. started to lecture him.

Ciocan stands at the podium in silence for a moment then speaks quietly, his voice heavy and full of sadness and disappointment.

"It is a sad duty I do today, I had the General check the records, this has been done only a number of times in the history of the Long Patrol. But Zolomon you leave me little choice, you are accused of assault of a superior officer, deserting, no fleeing your post and the scene of your crime, and then attempting to hide from what you had done behind the good graces and kindness of the Abbot and beasts of Redwall Abbey." He looks down at the hare, "How do you plead to these charges?"

Zolomon takes a moment to speak, wisely letting some anger trying to flare up settle down first."Didn't ...hide" Ok he also didn't tell the abbey why he was there, they found out a little later."As for...."Yes, it shows he hates Varus" The major....if he had gotten out of my way...and yes I did injure him, I did..leave the mountain and didn't always listen to others in...in Halyard, who needs Halyard thar are vermin thar ya know"

"No," Ciocan says, "The beasts living in Halyard are peaceful, friendly, they have proven themselves over the years that they are peaceful creatures who simply wish to live in peace."
 
Ciocan stares down at Zolomon, "Regardless of anything else... Zolomon, as of this day, you are stripped of all rank and all honors. You are stripped of your place in the Long Patrol and you are exiled from the Mountain home of Salamandastron, never again shall you walk her halls."
 
He stares at the hare, "Your actions I am afraid warrant no less, some would have me exile you from the shore itself. But I do not believe that is warranted, I ask you to live your life and remember the lessons you have learned here."

Zolomon listens as his sentence is brought down "Exiled?" He frowns slightly and looks down again as an urge to argue comes over him. He snorts and looks back at the badger." Fine..when does this start?  and thar ARE some in Halyard who hate us, maybe most don't ...."He forces himself to stop and just takes a calming breath.Thar is some anger but also bits of sadness showing as well.

Ciocan shakes his head and motions, the General walks forward and removes Zolomon's rank insignia and steps back, "Imediately," The Badger Lord says, "As of today you are no longer a member of the Long Patrol nor are you welcome within the Mountain. Your personal effects have been gathered, but no weapon or uniform can you take."

Zolomon blinks, he does speak though "The Longbow is mine, it belonged to my grandfather." He is fine with the dirk being taken,he got the dirk at the mountain but the longbow he will have a serious problem with if they say he can't take it.

Ciocan says, "You can take your bow," The Badger Lord says, "But no arrows, I will not arm you from supplies meant for the Long Patrol." He nods to the guards, "Please escort Zolomon to collect his belongings then out of the mountain."

Zolomon glares at the two guards when they go to take him out, "I can walk myself no need to lead me out." He won't fight them he just doesn't want them too close to him. He can manage without the arrows for now,he is a fast runner still after all and he knows how to make arrows,he just needs to find what he needs to do so.

The General makes a gesture and the guards turn to lead you out, seems you won't just be left alone.

Quinten then remains with the Badger Lord to talk to him then follows to catch up with you, "I have arranged for some supplies, food, a water-skin, I am sorry it came to this Zolomon but his Lordship has no choice."

Zolomon snorts, "Whatever....."The mention of some supplies at least is good.He takes a deep breath and nods "Thanks for..the supplies." He will change into his normal clothing leaving the uniform,or well stripped of rank uniform, on the cot. And no he does NOT neatly fold it either..He gets his longbow and the few personal items he has and allows himself to be lead onto the shore.

Quinten departs once he has handed over the supplies and the guards escort Zolomon down and out, leaving him on the beach outside the mountain and walk back inside. It is done... he has been exiled from the mountain.

Zolomon looks back at the mountain one last time,he stands there a long moment before finally bolting off up shore a good way before he stops and sits down. It was a good chance to think and let it sink in what just happen as he snorts "Who needs them..."But a frown forms as he sighs,sits awhile and then stands to walk towards the river, he might wander back to Halyard but not right now, right now he just wants to find somewhere to camp a few hours.
