Log:

Rudolfo walks along the path and finally sighs "Ya know, tis doesn't have to be a quiet walk, we can chat...sing...something"He grinned some.

Zolomon looks at the other hare and shakes his head but he speaks "Quiet is good at times, as is being alert"Not that an issue had come up, the day was good so far and not a cloud in the sky even. a couple sea gulls but they were leaving the hares alone.

Rudolfo sighs, yes he was alert of course he was "Ya know...you use to like a song or trying to cheer someone up, wot happen ta that?" He looks around "The day is sunny...we are alive....yes it's a little cold but still a clear day"

Zolomon rolls his eyes"Yeah..clear and it's gonna be a little cold for a few more weeks tis winter, its colder further north and east is cold too"

Rudolfo says, "Well....yeah" , the quietly sighed as he looked ahead "We are close, we can rest a little while if you want to"

Zolomon nods "A rest is good."

Rudolfo is fine with rest as he looks around"So gonna be all quiet on the way back as well?"

Zolomon speaks "Maybe...why does it matter? We are to escort them to the mountain and then a dinner..wot ever ok, I will likely not be thar..might be at the archery range or ya know what...Old Pete gonna need someone on watch duty..I think I will be thar."

Sinway makes his way onto the beach turning around and waiting for Ewan to catch up "Well, twas a borin' trip, but I guess that be a good thing." Since he is facing away from them he has not yet noticed Zolomon or Rudolfo

Ewan says, "yes, uneventful is good...maybe wot ever problem is not a problem now...I think"

Rudolfo sighs "Wot ever, guess someone does need to still be on sentry duty.."He does notice the otter and Ewan and grins as he goes to greet them."Hallo!!"

Zolomon looks up as Sinway and Ewan appear in view but only stands slowly and stays where he is adjusting his longbow, he doesn't speak yet.

Sinway ears twitch in the direction of the sound first before he turns around "Looks like the Badger Lord sent us a escort mate." He gives a wave to Rudolfo before noticing Zolomon "'Ello there, tis good to be greeted by friendly faces."

Ewan smiles "He is...good with that yeah..always safe to have an escort"But curious "No....threats around I ...hope"

Rudolfo shakes his head"No threats..Thar was but the issue was taken care of and yes an escort ta the mountain, even a nice dinner should be waiting as well..some fun times hopefully"He smiles.

Zolomon walks forwards and nods "Private Ewan....Brother Sinway. Good to see you have made it safely 'ere. Tis about 1/2 day...maybe an hour or so more to the mountain from here."He keeps it simple"And..yes a sort of welcome dinner."

Sinway hmms a little looking at Zolomon "Every thin' all right Zolomon.......i don' think i have ever heard ye use me full name before......I wasn' even sure ye knew me full name." He gives a soft chuckle before turning to Rudolfo "Aww ye didn' have t' do that, but tis nice that ye have."

Ewan tilts his head and stares at Zolomon quietly but decides to ask later,for now he will be quiet.

Rudolfo frowns, then smiles as he nods "Its good..though the Blackrose was an issue..not not all the way wiped out and any other issue...well was taken care of as well."

Zolomon nods "I am fine"The tone sort of says otherwise,"Yes...other issues."He hmmms but asks "Didn't run into a cat or...well anyone else did ya?"

Sinway frowns and shakes his head "Fine ye don't have to tell me." And he leaves it at that before turning to Rudolfo "Aye Patch was tellin' me the Blackrose was makin' trouble, as fer a cat and any other beast, no we didn' run into a cat or any other beast, twas a rather peaceful trip, gave me time to think and come t' terms with some stuff."

Ewan nods in agreement "Safe traveling, no trouble which is good"

Rudolfo nods, he will let Zolomon mention anything but he does speak some "Yeah the blooming Blackrose cause us some trouble, but they are gone now so no worries and its some cat that if she left...then good ridence"He doesn't mention the other beast, least yet"Anyways we should start back and any news from Mossflower we hope is good but guessing tis like updates or wot ever"

Zolomon frowns "It's...I am well Sinway and safe travels are good Ewan"He manages a..faint smile"They can give any updates to his Lordship when we get thar, I am sure a couple guest rooms been made up for them for their stay how ever long it is"

Sinway looks over at Zolomon "I don' believe yer completely well mate, but i wont press." He looks to Rudolfo "Ewan can give the updates, I'm in the western shores fer personal reasons, needed to get away from Mossflower fer a while." He looks at Ewan before turning back to face the direction of the mountain taking a few steps forward, bringing his arms up in front of him and tucking his paws into the sleeves of his habit "I be lucky Ewan wanted t' make a report so I have somebeast to travel wit and not worry Father Benar."

Ewan nods "Yes some updates...couple other things."He looks at Sinway...well Sinway can share later, but otheriwse"No danger at the abbey..other updates and such, can wait"

Rudolfo says, "Well it's good no danger is around and none here now"He decides to lead the way back"It is good to have guests though"

Zolomon shrugs "We can..talk later maybe. I will be on sentry duty during the welcome dinner then may go to Halyard, the tavern thar is nice"

Sinway just follows Rudolfo, he goes quiet staring at the sea as they walk and if any beast looks at him they will notice the cheerful look in his face he had when he greeted the two hares is gone now

Ewan doesn't say anything as he knows the otter has been quiet a lot and the reason why, but he will not share thats up to Sinway, not himself as he follows them and says "I...never liked the tavern much"

Rudolfo says, "The tavern is fun."He looks at Sinway "Something wrong mate? If ya worried bout any storms...none around right now and not much happens on de sea at all.""

Zolomon stays alert as they walk and ever so often looks back to the others, he is quiet, least for now.

Sinway looks over to Rudolfo "no mate.....I ain't be worryin' about storms.......tis just." He looks back at the sea "There was another suppose to be another beast here today."

Ewan nods but doesn't say who "Ended up being me and Sinway, not sure how long we will stay...not yet anyways"

Rudolfo nods "Well I guess thats ok..trip like this can be long fer some beasts after all"

Zolomon sighs"Yeah...others"He says after a while but clears his throat "So would else was gonna tag along on the trip?" He has an idea but he isn't sure, could of been a couple beasts he knows after all.

Sinway doesn't answer that question or really respond deciding to keep quiet for now

Ewan decides to not share as it's not his place to share as he looks up as they near the mountain "Wonder...if anyone missed me ..."

Rudolfo smiles "I be sure ya were missed and beasts be happy ta see ya again,been some changes though...and thats to be expected after de...well Mossflower fight thing and a couple other promotions happen after that"

Zolomon nods and decides fine and shrugs "Promotions happen sometimes you know"

Sinway keeps walking in silence turning to look at the mountain now before looking over to Ewan and after staying quiet for a long while finally speaks again "Be sure t' tell the Badger Lord to send the sparra back and let the abbot know we made it here safely."

Ewan nods "Of course sur..."He frowns a little staying close to the otter" Zolomon isn't being...Zolomon..it's strange and he could likely cheer you up but seems he isn't''cheery, wonder why?"

Rudolfo is closer to Zolomon than the other beasts so he doesn't hear any speaking, he glaces at them and back to Zolomon."Are you really gonna volunteer for sentry duty during a special dinner?"

Zolomon nods "Someone has ta bally well do it...why not me and I get along with grumpy old Pete better than others"

Sinway frowns and looks at Zolomon before replying to Ewan "I....don' know......I'm sure we will find out once we get to Salamandastron."

Ewan frowns and just sighs as he looks at the other hare and nods to Sinway "Yeah..ya right, maybe he is just tried if they like just recently had that...battle maybe with Blackrose, could just be that"

Rudolfo sighs and mutters before going forwards a little "We are....almost thar by the way"To which he is glad, they been walking a while but made very good time.

Zolomon says, "Yeah almost thar...good"

Sinway watches as the mountain gets bigger the closer they get to it, they are now close enough that even halyard is within view "Goin' to be nice sleepin' in a bed again, the deck of a boat really ain't comfortable......but then maybe livin' at the abbey again has spoiled me a little."

Rudolfo sighs, he slips back to Ewan and Sinway and smiles "We do have soft beds and can't say slept on a boat before"

Felicity goes Away From Keyboard.

Zolomon glaces at the mountain and looks back to the others"So,,any idea how long ya gonna stay and visit?"

Sinway shrugs "I'm not sure about Ewan, but I plan on stayin' till at least summer....like  I told the abbot I  don' think it be the right summer fer a Hullabaloo so there be no reason fer me to stay fer the summer as well."

Rudolfo nods "A ..Hulla.....what now?" Ok he has never heard of one of those before and gives the otter a what the look now.

Zolomon speaks after being quiet a while "Don't bally well ask me Rudolfo I have no clue either...wot is it?"Well least he is talking more now, but hey he is curious so he asked.

Sinway smiles a little "Tis a otter party mates, Hullabaloo is a big ol' otter party that takes place every fourth summer." He smiles and looks at the sea again "Every otter that can follows the rivers and streams to the sea and has a season long party on the beach." He seems to cheer up more while talking about this "There we swim in the sea, play games in the sand, have friendly combat matches, we eat and drink, and every night the beach is lit up with bonfires."

Zolomon nods "Sounds...nice Brother Sinway, I have no idea if there been any otters around, well one I know of but thats one"

Rudolfo says, "Oh...interesting, if it's happen must be more up shore from de mountain as I never seen anything like that, nor has my family spoke of it and ....well my family been in the Long Patrol fer seasons""

Sinway nods his head "If it was to happen, ye wouldn' see otters showin' up till mid spring at the earliest." He then he looks to Rudolfo "Aye must, I'm not sure where they hold it here, the one I have been to was on Green Isle, sadly thinks to a head injury I got, I can't remember how many summers ago that was, guess I should just be glad I can remember the party it self."

Zolomon nods, normally he might chuckle but he only nods "Well still...visiting for Spring is good"He looks up as they are just about at the mountain now "Well...guess we will be inside soon enough, not sure who be on sentry duty"

Rudolfo shrugs "Not sure, not like I ask...and I don't volunteer...now if I am told to, yeah I will do so"

Sinway looks out to the sea before looking back at the two hares "I'm just glad t' be away from Mossflower fer right now.....and it be nice t' see the mountain again, though I don' think any of the hares I  knew the last time i was here, but tis still nice t' see the mountain again."

Zolomon shrugs "Unless you talked to any before they left Mossflower....then again not sure whom all that is not like I carry a list"

Rudolfo shakes his head as he looks to Ewan and Sinway "Don't mind him, he's moody but I am sure he'll be better....later"

Sinway shakes his head looking a Zolomon "I didn't get a chance t' talk to many, was stuck in the infermary after the battle, no the hares I knew, I knew many seasons ago, back when the mountain didn' have a Badger Lord." He seems to remember something and gives Zolomon a little playful shove "Also, I was a little upset I didn' get t' say by to ye when ye left on yer mission."

Zolomon frowns "Well..they needed info here as quick as possible so choose me...didn't get ta say goodbye to anyway really,was in a wee bit of a hurry, was resting in de infirm a good like 3-4 days afterwards."

Rudolfo just listens quietly as they are basically by the mountain now and he looks around, no one outside right now doing any drills.

Sinway nods "i understand mate, still, could of left a note." he looks up at the mountain "still as impressive as ever."

Zolomon mutters a sorry and looks at the mountain "Yeah...big, large...lot of room inside. Base of the Long Patrol as we keep de shores safe from harm."He sits down on one of the rocks quietly."Shores are safe now in fact"

Rudolfo stands quietly off to the side, he nods to another hare and they chat briefly before the other hare heads inside.

Felicity comes walking from the direction of the Mountain, for once without a Recruit or Private in tow. How nice, a day to herself. The cut above her eyebrow has no bandages, so the fact that it's about 2 inches long is visible for all to see. When she spots the 4 other beasts, she waves to them.

Zolomon waves to Felicity "Hallo Corporal" A salute "Our guests are here..Brother Sinway and Private Ewan"

Rudolfo salutes also and stands quietly where he is, I mean Zolomon did update her after all

Felicity quickly salutes them back so they can go back to being 'at ease'. "Jolly good, wot! I 'ope y'all 'ad a good trip, an' welcome back, Ewan. I 'ope the Abbey life 'as been treatin' y'well. An' 'ow are you?" She asks the otter as she offers the 2 visitors a bright, genuine smile and a paw shake.

Sinway shakes the offer paw "I've been better marm, tis not been a easy month fer me....and is the reason why I am here, I needed t' get away from Mossflower fer a while." But he does return the smile "But thankfully the trip here was peaceful, and we made great time."

Zolomon stays seated where he is quietly watching the beach and some sea gulls while the others talk, he got the beasts here safe and sound now he likely will take a nap soon.

Rudolfo says, "Hope nothing too bad happen, it seems thing are good as I am guessing if was trouble again news would of been brought besides hey guests soon""

Felicity's smiles fades just slightly. "Oh, 'M sorry t' 'ear that. I 'ope this trip 'elps?" Turning to Rudolfo, she nods. "Aye, we don't need any more evil vermin things 'appenin' 'round 'ere any time soon. I'm sure we'd've been told much soonah if there was trouble in Mossflowah." At least, she hopes so, anyway....

Sinway nods "Aye." He turns to Zolomon and Rudolfo before back to felicity "I might as well tell ye all no good keepin it in." He sighs and sits down not to far from zolomon looking at him "Kenya is gone." Is all he says at first taking a deep breath "This trip was suppose to be to take her to see the sea, she never saw it before, and a sea otter who never seen the sea is like a river otter who never got to feel runnin' water on his back." He shakes his head "Now I'm here just to get away from everything."

Zolomon looks over"Gone?" He asks quietly and frowns, maybe he has an idea what gone means, but it's unclear and he looks back to the sea quietly.

Rudolfo blinks "Wot ya mean gone...."He stops and looks down"Oh..as in...sorry ta hear that sur...and from wot heard all otters like de sea"

Felicity's smile vanishes. "Gone? Did....oh, my, 'M sorry." She stands there a little awkwardly, but some awkwardness is necessary sometimes, especially in times like this. Can't always have the right answer, y'know? "Do....d'y'need t'talk about it?"

Sinway sighs turning to Rudolfo then looking towards Felicity "Kenya was me adopted daughter...she lost her parents to the Blackrose." He looks back out at the sea "It was a accident.....her and Brother Rick went t' visit Atvi and his grandmother, invite them to stay at the abbey because it was turnin' out to be a bad winter, Atvi grandmother had passed during the night and he ran off upset.....ended up on a creek and the ice broke.....Kenya jumped in to try and save him..Atvi is alive but Kenya didn't make it."

Zolomon frowns deeply as he listens and speaks quietly" I..I hope ya not sad..too long Brother Sinway."He sighs a little "Death can be hard to deal with...and..."He stands as he looks at the mountain "I will inform his Lordship your here...so....yeah"He walks on inside.

Rudolfo frowns and starts to lay a paw on Zolomon's shoulder and then then backs off as he watches him go inside "Well..I be sure Lord Ciocan will be...glad ya two got here safe then"

Felicity sits on a rock near the otter. "I'm sorry. She sounds like a brave and 'ounerable little lass." Zolomon can go inside, it's no big deal. She then turns and adds, "M'name is Felicity, by the way. I've lost most o' m'fam'ly. 'Tis terribly 'ard."

Sinway nods "She was novice age, she was goin' to be a healer when she made sister of the order." He watches Zolomon leave "As fer what been happenin' at the abbey....I don' really know......I  kinda been stayin' in me room only recently started talkin' to beast again....and then we left to come here, so if ye want updates on the goin' ons at the abbey yer gonna need to talk to Ewan."

Rudolfo nods "We had some..issues with the Blackrose..a couple fights, some injuries....."He frowns but then adds "But..tis all peaceful now ."

Felicity looks at the sand at the base of her rock. "Losin' fam'ly is 'ard," she whispers, then looks up at the other hare. "Aye, 'opefully we won't 'ave any issues with th'Blackrose for a while, although with 'Anzi goin' off with that cat....I dunno what's gonna 'appen." She stretches a little. "'M glad you're talkin' to more beasts, an' that y'came t'visit with us. May'ap y' 'll find some solace 'ere by the sea. I know it 'elps me, 'specially when, like Rudolfo said, 'tis peaceful."

Sinway frowns "What happen with Hanzi.....he was the hare who wanted t' join the long patrol, I met him at Redwall.......whats this about him goin' off with some cat" He then looks towards the mountain "well I  mostly came to just get away from Mossflower, see the mountain again, tis been many many seasons since I  last came to visit." He looks towards Halyard "Maybe go visit the tavern fer a drink......been wantin' something a little stronger the October Ale as of late."

Rudolfo frowns, "Hanzi...got banished.....and the cat was called Kalypso if remember right, daughter of Melantha , well , Kalypso sort of got flying lesson so she may be..dead but someone saw her leaving the shore"

Felicity scowls darkly. "Aye, 'Anzi joined up with th'daughtah of a slavah. I dunno why. I only tried t'be 'is friend. I almost nevah pulled rank or anythin' on 'im. 'E just went on and on about bein' tired of bein' ordahed around. From what a couple o' Privates who were there when it 'appened, m'Lord Ciocan 'ad to banish 'im from the Western shores. Didn't get all the details, but that's whot 'appened."

Sinway frowns and shakes his head "That be horrible, after losin' his family t' those slavers and even being a slave.....t' join up with the daughter of the cat who had his family killed. I mean, tis not like I haven' ever seen woodlanders who acted like vermin, but I didn' think I hear about Hanzi actin' this way."

Rudolfo frowns"Yeah....he killed a hare in the tavern and Didn't seem..concerned he just walked away and on the beach...me and another was thar...Lord Ciocan almost...almost killed Hanzi, then told Hanzi to get off his shore and Hanzi left, but...that hammer was like inches from his neck."

Felicity scowls darkly. "Didn't 'ear 'bout 'im killin' that othah 'are. 'Tis a sad and disturbin' business all 'round." Stands up stretches slightly. "Lord Ciocan may 'ave more t'say 'bout it, too. Wanna go try t'find 'im?"

Sinway shakes his head "I wont bother Ciocan right now, I imagine if he could he would of already come greeted us.......so he must be busy." He turns to walk into the mountain "I think I'll just get some rest, like I told Rudolfo and Zolomon sleepin' on the deck of a boat ain't to comfortable."

Rudolfo shrugs "I..don't know he is..somewhere?" He nods "I think I will get some rest as well. Long walk there and back to the sea and river moss place"

Felicity nods. "Sounds good, wot! I'll show y'where y'can sleep." Turning to her fellow hare, she adds, "Aye, I think y'and Zolomon deserved it, wot! Ye'll probably get the rest o' the day off. We can double check t'be sure." She goes to lead the otter to where he'll be bunking for the duration of his stay, then reports to whoever it needs to be reported to that the guests have arrived fully and safely at Salamandastron.

Rudolfo nods "Always good idea ta double check ya be right" He goes inside last and after checking on things he will either take a short nap or a long nap.
