Dear Friends,
More has been found. The weather vane had fallen off the roof, but our Sparra friends helped us find it. The weather vane has been placed somewhere safe till we can get it back on the roof, likely the first few weeks of spring.
We have cleared paths to the gatehouse and champion cottage, as well as a small one to the pond, one to the rose garden as well, but a part of the path to the rose garden was messed up...that is ok as we do not need to go to the garden in winter anyways, the only need we had was to get the weather vane and we have that. A path is being worked on to the Kitchen Yard.

Our guest Velm is interesting, seems he had some memory loss but has gotten most of it back through help from various abbey beasts. He is also a healer and has said he can help the infirm. He will stay with us till spring and head back once our Residential hare Elbio is back, which is supposed to be in the Spring.
This winter is colder than usual, but we are warm inside the abbey.

We also recently have a cat as a guest, she mentioned a friend is elsewhere, maybe we will have a couple more guests this winter, guests are always nice and can bring wonderful stories to the abbey of their travels.
Ihave to go, I shall write more later

Dear Friends,
I write this with a heavy heart this evening. My friend Xander Winters is dead. It fills me with my grief, others are sad as well. I know not all the details, I am unsure anyone knows fully what happen to my dear, dear friend. I spoke to a couple of beasts and learned it's possible our guest Esmeray had something to do with it. Is it possible she killed my friend, a friend I had known for very long. Xander helped me and my son Minsc through a lot, Xander was a good friend to all. Xander was also a father to Oz, a husband to our Badger Mother, and a friend to all at the abbey young and old.

Sadly the cat Esmeray is long gone, and snow still makes travel very hard, hopefully for her as well.

Another issue is the missing cub Oz, no dibbun should have to go through being taken, and not so long after the dibbuns had been found and rescued from those slavers in summer and autumn time.

We will have a funeral for Xander in a few days. In the meantime, I will see if my eagle friend Silverwing can keep an eye out for the cat Esmeray, or any clue to where she and the badger cub Oz is. If the cat is not the one who ended my friend's life then she very well knows who did the horrible, dishonorable deed.

Excuse me I need to tend to a couple of things. I will update again when more news is heard.

Dear Friends,
I have not written in the logs in a while. I am sorry so I have a lot to catch up on indeed.
As spring came we finally got the weather vane back on the roof. The Sparra and their Queen Chestnut were very helpful in letting a small group into the lofts. The moles also helped to get the weather vane back on top of the Abbey, though the moles did not like the height at all.

Some sad news also to share, the Log-a-log Vilfred has died, an ambush happened at the GUOSIM camp.A passing band of vermin took over the camp. Vilfred son, Xavier got help from Ferravale and got the camp back and the group of vermin were killed.
The new GUOSIM leader is new Log-a-log Xavier, I know he will do well. In fact we had the Spring Feast at the GUOSIM camp.
As Summer had come the GUOSIM decided to have a river trip and invited me along. It sounds exciting and I will be sure to write about the trip as we travel, but no worries we are back in time for the Summer feast in a few weeks.

Dear Friends,
It has indeed been a while since I have updated, been busy I suppose.During the Summer there was a trip up and down the River Moss with the GUOSIM. It was great fun to explore and have some peace and quiet, even updated a couple maps of Mossflower while I was on the trip. The GUOSIM are indeed a very interesting group.
We had the Summer Feast at the abbey. A surprise was there for us all,Mother Krisha's son Oz was alive and back home , we also had a couple hare guests. One was Zolomon who is no longer in the Long Patrol and may decide to live at the abbey.

Life at the abbey is good

Dear Friends,
A lot has happen. Zolomon is no longer welcomed in the Abbey, or Mossflower. He has murdered the otter Errpeal and a small family of innocent ferrets. His trail was at Ferravale and he was banished from mossflower, if he reruens...it means death for him. Manu were surprised of the hare's change.
Lt Elbio is taking the news to the Western Shores.

But not all news is bad news. There is still the autumn feast and many look forward to it.

Greetings Friends,

We just had our winter feast.
Winter of the Squirrel. I think as the abbot said, it fits nicely.
An old Abney friend, John as returned.
Also the Gawtribe are back and will be spending a few days in the abbey till they can find a new home in Mossflower woods.
The seasons have been peaceful and I do hope they stay peaceful. We still have our peace treaty with Ferravale and that is always good.
A tree fell in the woods. We have decided to use the wood from the tree for any woodwork needed and maybe some firewood as well. A family of 4 squirrels(a mother,father,2 dibbuns) lived in the tree and I have been told an owl may of lived on the very top of the tree,but I am unsure. A Group of beasts plan to go to where the tree is in the next couple days.

Also named spring.

Dear Friends,
It is a couple days after the nameing of the past winter and the new come spring. All is still fairly good but it seems a group of squirrels called the Gawtribe have decided to take over the dibbuns treehouse in the orchards. Now this is still a serious matter as I fear the dibbuns will try and handle this on thier own, and you never know what dibbuns will do once they set thier mind to something and we do not want them to get hurt.

The next couple days after this treehouse taskeover there seems to be an agreement and the squirrels have left the treehouse much to the delight of not just the dibbun but the adults as well. The Gawtribe will have a old maple tree in the northern part of the woods on the other side of the River Moss. We shall visit them from time to time to keep an eye on them so they don't get too mischious.

Dear Friends,
Its been a few days since I have written in the logs.Peace is still here at the abbey and the woods and all is glad of this time pf peace.

Lately my fruiend Dorarose has had odd dreams of possible danger in her homeland. A meeting with the abbot and some elders was done and it was advised that Dorarose and her family head back to thier homelands to help with this time of turmoil there. We will need to think of a replacement for a main Bellringer, a Master healer and a Gatekeeper but Dorarose and her brother, as well as Lillymoore and Angela won't be heading off till the Sumer feast has happen. They will leave the motrning after the feast.

In other great and wonderful news Lt. Elbio is back with us and not just that he is walking again! Yes you read it right he is walking again, sometimes he does need his walking staff but he is once more walking again.He has also brought a small group of hares with him whom will set a old base again in Mossflower woods.A way to help keep an eye on Mossflower and when needed sent a runner or a bird messenger to Salamandstron .This is a great way to keeop more updated with our friends at the great mountain and them keep updated about us. It makes the woods and abbey feel more safe.
I shall update again soon my friends!

Dear Friends
The Long Patrol hares have been in the abbey for a week. There had been fear in the kitchens but it seems under control . I am unsure what Lt. Elbio and Friar Lacota said to them but the hares do not dare set a footpaw in the abbey kitchens and have oddly not complained of needing snacks though out the day. They have been very well behaved and even helped around the abbey, well almost all around the abbey as they still avoid the kitchens.

The summer feast has arrived and the hares are super pleased as they get to relax and jion in with no complaints, or least very few, on what and how much they eat.

The Summer of Fond Farewells.

The next morning Dorarose and her family left. Also young goose Graceie has been adopedted a passsing family of geese and so has also left the abbbey.Also it seems young Docus has followed Dorarose as a sparrow reported this and we have been told she is safe .I am just glad she isnt traveling alone.

Also a visator came in late, Felecity of the long patrol and her sister Julia.Felcity has retired from the Long Patrol and her and her sister had decided to go with Dorarose and her family on thier quest that I hope gors well.

Dear Friends,
Some sad news and proof peace does not always last.

No ill has come to the abbey.It happen in Ferravale. A couple nights after Our friends left for thier homeland a unknown group of beasts attacjked Ferravale and burned down the Town Hall.The town Hall was a complete loss and the Chieftain Blis home was half burned down as well. The Chieftain Blisa was captured and taken away,but no one knows to wheresadly just a direction is all. Most of the beasts who done this foul deed were found and slain,but a small pawful in number are still out there and tracjked down as we speak. In the choas of this the rat Patch was killed by these foul beats as well as 2-3 of the chieftains main bodyguards. The main Bosdyguards and sopme towns beast have jioned in a serch party to find thier chieftain and it is likely they may nerver return. I do not know why me, as well as a couple others, felt this feeling they would never return to Mossfower but at the same time a feeling that even though they will never come back to Mossflower there is a chance they will be found and live any remaining days elsewhere.I do hope they are found,even if it is to live elsewhere far far from Mossflower.

I shall keep you updated on Ferravale as me,Mother Krisha and Matilda will check on the village to see how it is and if help is needed.

Dear Friwends,
Some things are looking up. The Ferravale Recorder has managed to save 90% of Ferravale's history logs and recorders from where he had rewrote some for safe keeping. Sadly some old blueprints were lost, and s couple old log records found I hope to repair as all of this has been given to me to keep safe in my room at the abbey. The Recorder Rupert has also helped update us on Ferravale. A lot of the Ferravale beats have left, out of fear of another attck.Who ever attacked only was intretsed in Ferravale and necver once showed intrest in the abbey. But we of course still want to know what happen and why such a strong intrest in just Ferravale,hopely we will figure it out some day soon I hope.
Other news is the Mossflower Defenders Base was burned down as well, the base has rarely been used since Xander died. A couple defenders at the base were killed.

Also leaveing Ferravale, and likely why the recoreds of the village was placed in my care for safekeeping, are Recorder Rupert as well as Mergleton the town ambassator. It was said the Under taker Markalaway may way still libve in the creepy house in the graveyard, or maybe he is a ghost that stays around to keep the dead safe and tend to the dead and the graveyard.No one seems to know as the undertake Markalaway was rarely seen for the past few seasons and when he was he seemed to vanish just as quickly. I myself think he is just an old hermit that prehaps likes no one ,but who knows as no one really ever knew his age and some clained he was hunderns of seasons old.I find that silly but again,who knows as I ahve never meet the village undertaker. I only know he is a old one eyed rat that rarely ventures from his creepy cabin at the far far edge of the Ferravale graveyard.

Dear Friends,
It's been a couple weeks and things had calmed some. Sadly the village of Ferravale is a ghost town now as some would day as very few have stayed.The Redthorn Tavern still stands though, not many visite it now but it still is open to those who wish to come,run by the two staots Otis and Otto that had been the tavern boucers and guards..

Signed Brother Gorvenalus

Friends,
I write a little more.With a sad heart I have to mention the death of Lt. Elbio. No one is sure what happen as no struggle was seen when he was found dead in the woods.It was all a great shock to the abbey as well as the Long Patrol. He is buried in the abbey graveyard and of course word of this sad event was sent to Salamanstron.

I myself am in total shock of this.His own daugfhter had even come to visit only to be meet with this sad news. She decided to step away from the Long Patrol and travel with a couple otters from the Western Shores. I wish young Cianna well and I hope all goes well for her where ever it is she goes.

Dear Friends,
We are now planing for the Autumn feast. Harvest has gone very well indeed and we are very well ready for winter comes.

In other news we are fixing a hole in the roof that the Sparra updated us about. Hard work is being put into fixing the hole before winter hits as it is affecting the Sparra loft and Queen Chestnut wants it fixed ASAP. The GUOSIM had said they would help but no one has seen the GUOSIM, not a one.Prehaps they are once more wandering around a it seems they do not stay in one place too long, hope they are well where ever they are.

We also have a Master Healer now, Brother Jaison is our new Master Healer. We have yet to get a premit Gatekeeper or Bell Ringer buyt beasts at the abbey has been helping with this.

Also it seems young Oz, who has gone though a growth spurt, is intersted in the Bee Folk of the abbey and gets along very well with them,prehaps we may get a new Beekeeper soon but we shall see as Elder elmef is helping the badger learn of the bees and thier proper care.

That is all for now my friends

Dear Friends
The Autumn of the roof! As the roof is now fixed and the Sp Sparrs are very thankful and even jioned us for the feast.
In some other news we also had the snow badger come and had a small winter party with cookies and hot coca.Coco is very rare and we use to get it from chief Blisa of Ferravile.
Sadly there is still no word on weather she was found yet or how our friends who went on the mission to find her are.I hope news is soon
In some good news Oz, son of our Badger Mother, has jioned the order as a novice and is learning about the bees.He also is getting very good with singing and playing the lyre.
That is all for now I need to get to a meeting to discuss the name for this winter season.
