Updateing The Abbot

* Got on as Benar...and Benar chated with Velm to try and get some news of recent events. Like What Happen to Xander and on a missing dibbun ***

WHO:

Benar- Abbot of Redwall

Velm- LP Healer, Lt. in LP

LOG:

Benar was half asleep when the news came. Upon listening to the gatekeeper he became more awake. Still, the news was a shock and maybe he was still somewhat dreaming. He went to speak to Matilda, she and the Abbot soon found where Xander had been placed, an area in the open ground, away from where anyone would see him. The abbot quickly went to Great Hall in hopes of finding Velm, hear his side of what happened.

Velm was sitting down with lunch, a late lunch, and being very unhare like..not eating his lunch. The hare sighed, upon seeing the abbot he sat up "Hallo sur...umm suppose ya been.."He frowns "Updated?"

Benar walks over "I want to hear your side of all this? What happen? Why...how were beast outside the abbey? How far...explain. I have a.."He takes a deep breath "A novice is dead, a dibbun is missing..also where is Krisha, she is in the abbey right?" He frowns "Oh my, does she even know....."

Velm held up a paw, whoa too many questions at once, he feels like some Private being grumbled at by a Major. He clears his throat"De..clearing, just north of de abbey and..."He frowns "I had me snowshoes, had an extra pair I gave de Badger Mother, also Dorarose got snowshoes off that grumpy old grandma of her's. De guest we had...that cat Esmeray..or something like that, anyways she mentioned a friend needin' help...my guess is Xander helped her and that was last night...and either Oz snunk out with him or some reason he just let the cub tag along." He frowns as he goes on..."Which led ta this morning..me, Mother Krisha and that Dorarose, with snowshoes, went to de clearing as I had noticed no smoke from wot assumed was a small hut...camp or like a den and smoke been coming from that fer like past 3 or so weeks..suddenly stopped after last night."

Benar sat down as the hare spoke, a deep frown but motions for the hare to keep speaking as some he heard from the gatekeeper and the hare seemed to add a little more to what happened.

Velm nods " Well..thar was a tunnel, and a hut..empty, not sure who lived thar but...anyways they were not thar. there were a couple dead ferrets, signs of a fight.....and we saw Xander, he was..dead and sadly been dead a few hours. The cat and likely her friend..unless de ferrets were her friend...be long gone, some prints were mostly buried in de fresh fallen snow."He frowns"Me and de mouse lass found Xander first..tired ta not let Krisha see him but...well we failed, she saw him. Sadly no signs of de badger cub just a knock out dart...whoever slain Xander..likely has de badger cub. Xander likely de one that killed the ferrets..maybe injured the cat some too" He only knows of the cat Esmeray...no clues lead to anyone else being around or if Esmeray was working alone, with someone or maybe even for someone. "Tis all I know sur, I am sorry"

Benar closes his eyes, then reopens them as the hare relates what he also heard from the gatekeeper. He takes off his glasses and wipes his eyes "No....no need to be sorry, there was nothing more you could do Velm."He frowns "Where is Krisha?"

Velm frowns "Infirm sur....she.." He sighs sadly " This is gonna take a while to recover from, she insisted on carrying Xander back...she did most of de way and then me and Dora helped. Krisha passed out at the entry..poor lass and was taken to de infirm. I am unsure where ..Xander was taken."

Benar puts his glances back on "I was told where he is.."He says quietly as he looks at the stairs and stands "I will be in my quarters...let me know when Mother Krisha wakes up." He then heads off to his room, deciding after a short while to just go to the infirm and sit in a chair by Krisha till she wakes up, he will be there for comfort. He also will have to tend to makeing plans for Xander's funeral, but that could wait, for now, no need to try and make plans today.
