LOG:

   

Patch has been wandering cause there is something going on and he aimed to find out, there should be nothing going on in Mossflower he doesn't know, it's so wrong in his mind. He right now had seen and smelled a campfire and made his way closer, and quickly into a tree to look down at them, do what he does best, get info on going ons around the area. Likely not the best plan as he shifts slightly and tries his best to be quiet.   

Caleb would just watch and try to think of what to say. However, his ears twitched and he looked around the area, not seeing anything at the moment. He would only write down some more, showing it to the two. "So... it seems like they are heading north and now could be heading either up or downstream. Do you two have any ideas where they may head. My thinking is towards a shore... perhaps an ocean?"
   
Keldorn shrugs as he reads "Western shore maybe there is Halyard....or Collinsel is Eastern..." He frowns "If they get that far...we would never find them at all"
   
Xander shakes his head and then tilts his head, paw on blade as he tenses up and looks around the small camp, he walks a little and listens. His focus on...noises.   

Patch frowns, great that's all he needs as he scoots back and about falls, he gasps loudly and grabs the branch as he falls, misses and grabs the 2nd branch sending down a lot of leaves and looks down, oh wonderful....   

Caleb was thinking of what to do before he suddenly heard the noise as well. The mouse rolls towards his log and grabs up his own sword, looking towards Xander with a nod as keeps an eye on the trees.   

Keldorn looks up "Some beast is watching us, that can't be a good thing my friends."
   
Xander walks over to the tree, unlike the others he looks ready to find out sooner with a growl " Show yourself!"   

Patch tenses up, he had almost forgot just how LARGE that blade is as he eeps again and goes to crawl to the trunk, should he...come down? He seems to decide and then speaks "Put that blade away Stripy, tell them back off and..ill come down"
   
Caleb only keeps the blade up, watching the trees and towards where the voice came from. He would look towards Xander and wonder what he was going to do but he wouldn't get in the way. It'd be madness to go against a badger at the moment.
   
Keldorn backs up a slight bit and his eyes narrow, he has has a bad past couple days but manages to remain calm,for now.
   
Xander growls and only puts the blade down to climb up, grab the rat by the neck scuff and drop him once he is almost down, he glares down,at him. " why you spying on us Patch?" Seems he best reply.   

Patch eeeks "Let go let go that hurts ya striped moron..."He lands on his tail "Owch.."He then sees the look on the badger and presses against the tree"I..I..wasnt spying...ok ok I was but not fer no beast but me...how ya think I learn things around here...wot tis going on Stripy? I seen ya champion...and...well these beasts, even Dorarose is in the woods..."Yeah he stayed clear of her.   

Keldorn decides to let the other handle this...guest? He is going to sleep at the moment as it appears this is being handled.   

Caleb keeps one hand on his blade but writes down on his pad and shows it towards Keldorn. "Who is this guy?" However, him going to sleep just makes the mouse sigh and keeps guard, watching the rat.   

Xander sees the note, he can handle this as he replies " Annoying...so.." he looks at Patch " A lot Patch and you wandering around." He snorts " Slavers took all but one dubbun grom the abbey and killed sister Ginny and a shrew maid later on." He picks up his blade and puts it away ." May be wise ta go home...least you heard something in the tavern"
   
Patch frowns, but he listens and peers at the mouse, back to Xander" So he doesn't talk and....."He goes silent "They took...kids?"
   
Caleb would just grumble and comes towards the rat, looking him over all around. He doesn't attack but he doesn't let up his guard. However he lets Xander do the talking.   

Xander snorts but nods " Yes. all but a goose that was on the pond, they drugged some beasts too..including Krisha. Look Patch go back to the tavern but if you do here something of interest let us know." He looks at Caleb ."Its ok he..isn't an enemy"
   
Patch backs up and looks between them dusting off "Yeah yeah course...."He nods and walks away, then jogs before anyone wakes up he rather not speak to"   

Caleb just lets off a sigh and sheathes his sword, looking towards Xander before showing his pad. "He's some type of spy then? Are you sure we can trust a vermin?"   

Xander looks at the note and nods " Patch he is...trustworthy most of the time. He owns the tavern in Ferravale now and does a good job" He sits down." But yes he..spies but he hates slavers"   
   
Caleb would only shake his head and sit down for now, looking towards the sky as he thought of some things. At least this person can be trusted... if Xander says they can be then he'll believe it. But Xander can tell he is worried as he looks towards the trees some more.   
Xander sits near Caleb " Don't worry Caleb, I am gonna help protect everyone on the on the trip, trust me. As for the slavers they  all likely on the way to well..somewhere"   

Caleb would blink and get out of his trance before looking towards Xander, smiling. He just gets his pad and shows it to Xander after writing. "Thank you Xander. I hope I will be good to protect the others as well. I do not want to see others fall for any mistakes on my part."   

Xander reads it and smiles, he nods " We will just have to hope all goes well but...when we do catch up its gonna be a big battle, maybe we will gain some help along the way." He softly hums then " I will take watch..get sleep" If he is able he will give the mouse a friendly gentle hug and then after a moment stand to take his turn on watch.   

Caleb would feel a blush cross his face as the badger hugs him but just nods to him and takes up his bedroll, keeping his sword nearby.

==At The Abbey==

Krisha was mostly recovered and decided to do something to get his mind off recent events, one was talk to foremole since she did learn mole over the past couple seasons,she was not an expert at it but could understand enough.She would make some hinges for the door,she could find someone that was better at making a lock and new key...yes for the small wall doors at the other gates. The main gate was fine it was those 3 smaller ones that weren't.   

Patch made his way into the abbey, glaceing around and found his way to the kichen yard.He spots the badger but keeps his distance for the time being and watches her curious.   

Krisha worked at the small forge.It had been a while since she did this as usually she had her dibbun duties, now that was not happening and a coupe chores she had she talked others into doing, a class Brother Rick would do this morning.   

Patch tilts his head, "Ok this is interesting...they got ya doin' this stuff? " He walks closer and fiddles with some ring for a barrel nearby.   

Krisha tries to ignore the rat and just work on the hinges she was making and tiny small bolts for the hinges.She was good with this sort of thing,she never tried to make a blade or weapon and had thought of heading to her fathers shop in Ferravale and maybe...stay a few days, whether she asked or not she had not decided.
   
Patch rolls his eyes "Well least ya not being rude....Stripy was..climbs the tree and grabs me by my neck scuff and drops me and it HURT and had de nerve to ask why I was spying in them...like good grief, things are happening and I have no clue...I am suppose ta knowwwwww things" He would pick now to complain.   

Krisha hits the hinge a little too hard and snorts...she can fix it and had made so far 3 other hinges, she would make 2 for each door. She finally looks at the rat"You saw...Xander? Where?" She had known he left with others just not where and no one had come back so maybe it was a good sign that they found clues.   

Patch mutters "Woods." He leans agaist the tool shed as he speaks"So what's all this on missing dibbuns and such, how that possible..how does one sleep threw vermin, how does one sleep threw someone beside em'" He goes on and on being his rude,not thinking before he speaks self...thats Patch for you.
   
Krisha finished the hinge, she had 4 now. She had started another hunge and listened to Patch and takes a deep breath, ignore the rat and she tries to till he starts talking more and she lets out a growl muttering how he needs to shut the heck up, it then gets to the point where she spins around and throws the small hammer at the rat and goes to try and grab him by the throat.It might be a good idea to run or get out of reach.   

Patch pales and screams barely sidesteping and just barely gets out of reach but it's likely she has a whisker or two.He climbs the closest tree hoping and praying this badger doesn't climb trees!   

Krisha was in a very rare bad news. "Get...Down...From...There" She was far from happy.   

Patch shakes his head and even goes higher "Nope, not coming down, sorry" Yes he was afriad of the badger right now, "I was just curious...no beast tells me anything."   

Krisha glares at the rat, "Fine stay up there you rude rat,I could care less!" She then storms off and goes on inside the abbey building.
   
Patch only relaxes when she is gone, he only climbs down when he knew she was not nearby and did a smart thing, he decided it was a great idea to get back to his tavern as soon as possible.Patch had made the mistake of running, he got grabbed by an otter as he struggled in the otters grasp he yells ." No let me down...I didn't do anything to make her all grumpy...she threw a hammer at me...a freaking glowing hammer!" It did miss him but still he deserved it.   

Benar comes down the stairs to see what all the noise is. Well more stalks, "What... is... going... on... in... here!" He all but shouts glaring at the otter, Patch and anyone else in the hall. "I am waiting..."
   
Patch almost pales again when the otter drops him, he gulps, " I..ummm...she.." The otter just shakes his head and lets the abbot handle it.   

Benar walks toward Patch, "I heard shouting, and I heard the word she... who threw a glowing hammer at you?"   

Patch stands and dusts off. " I only askes how one sleeps threw something like that." He adds " Least she didn't yank me from a tree after climbing, someone else did that"   

Benar walks up to Patch, leans down, "Someone sleeps through something like that when they have been poisoned that is how Patch... I suggest you use some of those brain cells of yours next time you see Krisha."
   
Patch backs up and bumps into a table " Your Badgermother needs talking to, she threw something at me, see I was also curious why she was at ya little forge..makeing hinges looked like, shes moody:   

Benar says, "Krisha just had her son kidnapped, as well as all the children under her care because someone drugged here. Her husband has ran off again to go get them back, so yes... she is Moody.. I suggest you leave Krisha alone"

Patch sits down and just nods,he then speaks " Soooo..am I allowed ta leave, and if ya need a badger found. I could find him."

Benar says, "No, Xander is with Matilda, he should be fine, she will keep him in order," He folds his arms and looks down at Patch, "But thank you for coming to see how Krisha is doing."
   
Patch seems confused, " Ummm...yeah..as fer the beasts that took..kids that's wrong, so wrong and I have heard nothing round the tavern...well on dibbun nappers, that Log..a..thing was looking for a couple of his shrews, took him one was at de inn..no clue where any other one was..then he left."
   
Benar nods his head and sighs, stepping back and taking the rat's arm, "Come have tea..." He says invitingly, "Thank you for coming to check on us, could you carry a message to your Chief for me?"
   
Patch blinks. Ok this is important " I can..." The rat wasn't always..rude, " Sorry...earlier...Abbot sir"   

Benar says, "It is ok... sorry for shouting, I've not been sleeping too well since it happened..." he parks Patch in a seat and sends a novice for tea, "Can you ask Blisa to come and visit me? I need to speak to her, Abbot to Chief formally."
   
Patch nods, "Also sleep is good ya know, ya got enough helpers ta sleep a whole day." He sits politely.   

Benar says, "I don't think I want anyone to feed me something to make me sleep... I will be fine," he shakes his head, "But I do need to speak to Blisa, it is very important"
   
Patch nods " I can tell her to come ASAP. But yeah sleep is..good, clears the mind, your likely not de only one having sleep issues"
   
Benar says, "Thank you Patch, it is quite important we speak as soon as we can"
   
Patch nods " course, hope de little ones are found and all get back safe"
   
Benar says, "So do I... I can only hope the Champion and those who have gone with her will be safe"
   
Patch says, "well...that umm martin helps right? And...well, well you can hope. Always gonna be a large fight with this sort of thing, maybe they  not expecting to be followed"
   
Benar says, "Yes.. Martin is with Matilda..." he frowns and looks up, "His attention is focussed on the champion... so I need to make some arrangements whilst she is away."
   
Patch asks, "arrangements?" He is too curious " They may get like...dream aid or wot ever that mouse does"

Benar says, "Well Patch," he stands up, "I should get back to work... but Martin will give us all the aid he can I am sure."

Patch nods "I shall...get Blisa ASASP" And the rat does so, he gets to Ferravale quickly and tells Blisa she needs to get to the abbey ASAP..Benar needs her, he gives a small summary of slavers and how they took dibbuns, and how Benar needs to get serious sleep.He then went to the tavern
