An intresting walk
Oz walks into the entry, a little break from the dibbuns and a chance for a much needed walk outside, a warm cloak over him as the air is still a little chilly at times and he is about to go off outside.
Honeyfern walks out into the entry and seeing the badger smiles as she walks over to him "Hey..heading out? May I come along? A walk may do me some good and this way I can say I wasn't alone as seems it’s unsafe to travel alone sometimes."
Oz looks over at the haremaid and shrugs "I suppose, though don't plan to be out too long"
Honeyfern nods as she listens "That's fine I wasn't planning on being out long as the festival is soon."
Oz hmmms "Alright, well I was going now so." He heads out the gate slowly picking up his staff on the way out.
They walk for a little while and soon make it to a market place a little north of the abbey by the roadside.
Oz walking along he comes upon the market area and hmms and he ventures inside, well seems warmer weather has had the market start up as he looks around the different booths and places where some are just using blankets, he mutters "Interesting seems."
Honeyfern smiles as she looks around "Wow, this place is cool and so alive with beasts. I’m looking around." She slips off and starts to look around the booths and smiles, she passes one with fresh fruit and pays a couple copper for some apples and chestnuts and chuckles at a passing juggler as she walks munching on an apple she sees a booth with dresses and walks over, "Whoa.."
Oz shrugs "We should..." he stops as she walks away and sighs, he follows her as he is not one to return to the abbey by himself and besides he would feel bad if something happen to her on the way home if she went alone, he frowns as he walks around and finally finds her and heads over to her.
Honeyfern looks over the dresses and keeps looking out a dark green one, she starts to walk away when the owner of the booth stops her "Interested in the dress, could fit you maybe?," The squirrel smiles at her "Even have shoes, and a ribbon that matches it if interested.." Honeyfern frowns "That would be good but I don't have many coins, even though it is..lovely."
Oz stays close by and looks around; he shakes his head "Way too many beasts around here."
Honeyfern looks over at Oz "I am guessing you’re not use to being in large crowds." She looks back to the dress and sighs, the squirrel watches her interest, "Ya can try it on if like." Honeyfern smiles and nods, going into a tent by the booth she is inside a few moments and comes back out in the dress, a dark green one with some silvery blue sleeves, the shoes are white and the ribbon she places in her headfur is silver and green, she looks at herself in the mirror and ohs, she smiles and sighs at the same time, "Tis jolly well nice but I couldn’t..." she smiles she does like it and seems to be thinking as she looks to her pouch where she placed her dirk and looks at it, a simple dirk she has had for a long time, silver hilt to it and she study’s it as she looks at the squirrel "Do you do. Trades?" The squirrels hmms "I could, but. A dirk, well...tell ya what, I do have a couple summer dresses, not nearly as fancy as that course, that dress is good for something special...a yellow and a light green sun dress, same size.", The squirrel mentions, "so the 2 sun dresses and the one you now wear for the dirk" Honeyfern seems to think on this and then nods she hands over the dirk, the squirrel maid smiles and places the sun dresses into a package, on top of the outfit the hare changed from "Nice dress for something special and simple made sundresses for summer, do enjoy" Honeyfern nods and looks at Oz and ohs, yeah he was left standing.."Sorry just..Don’t have any dresses and..Thought, so think Jake will like this" She spins around and smiles. "As for the dirk, don’t really need it..Only used it for self-defense anyways."
Oz looks at her as she finishes "Its fine,. Like what?" He looks at her and smiles "Well, I think he might but your have to ask him, so we should go now.." he frowns, crowds so annoying..a room of dibbuns he can handle a lot better, "We should go then," He starts to head out, making sure she is following.
Honeyfern chuckles and goes to follow him, she nods "Yes the festival will start soon won't it, and be a shame to miss any of it."
Oz nods and stops only a moment to look at a booth that has different teas, he decides to get some and pays the coppers and then goes to head to the road "Come on then.."
The two beasts walk till they get back to Redwall Abbey.
Oz walks into the abbey and smiles "Much better and much less crowed than that market...not that it wasn't interesting, just..far too many..beasts" He looks at the tea and clears his throat "I need to tend to something, be around later."
Honeyfern smiles and nods "Sorry on the. Crowd thing but thanks for walking with me" she watches as he heads off and smiles as she places her package down and looks over at Silver.
