--This happen right after http://rwmuck.limitless.org/rwmuck/content/ebony-isnt-welcome-abbey-anymore

Thorn sniffs and doesn’t look to see if Ebony left or not "I don’t want to leave...Make her go away" Tears go down her face.

Zork still holds Thorn and looks to Flicktail "She tis upset Flicky, other than that no signs of being injured. Wot be happening?"

Flicktail says, "Apparently one of them Silent Blades Figures Thorn should be with them. She is gone Thorn, I drove her off. I told you I will be here for you"

Thorn sniffs and looks at Flicktail "She went away? What if she comes back?"

Zork says, "I saw that group on de road, not a large one but still not de best beast ta run into..they had a wildcat helping but he were slayed, now tis just a small band of rats""

Flicktail nods to Zork "Thorn if ANY beasts is around you like that, you just start Hollering at the top of your lungs, we have protectors all around and they and I will come a running”

Thorn sniffs and rubs her eyes, "She wanted me to..to go with her and be one of them, I like it here and don’t want to grow up and be like her...not at all"

Zork lets Thorn down if she wants to be "Flicky will make sure she doesn’t come back, and Lee will also be thar to not let her in de gates"

Flicktail says, "Aye and we will make sure you get to stay here and grow up here.....I will never let them have you Thorn, I will always come to your rescue"

Thorn nods "She..she was mean, I never want to see her again, I don’t care who she is"

Zork stays by the steps to the infirm and then sits down slowly on the steps as he listens.

Flicktail says, "Well I will do my best. She was thrown out of the abbey and is not allowed back in...." He holds open his arms "Are you Ok Thorn? Me brave lass? Zork there, he made a strong gate to keep that beast out"

Thorn goes over to Flicktail, she looks still a little jumpy but not as much now.

Zork says, " De gate be almost done Flicky, which is good."

Flicktail offers her his warm protective arms "Your Amazing Thorn" He smiles. He nod nods to Zork "We need it the sooner the better”

Thorn sniffs "I was scared"

Flicktail nods "I know, So was I....”

Zork looks around the open ground and back to them "I would say Ozzy could watch her but he may be asleep and not ta worry Flicky, all de pieces are done and being placed together, I will make sure it be done even if I haf ta sit in a chair and watch fer repairs"

Thorn nods and looks ready to fall asleep any moment, it’s been a long day as she leans against Flicktail and falls asleep.

Flicktail looks to Zork "I am glad I was here to catch that one”

Zork smiles as he watches the young rat fall asleep, "She fell asleep and I am glad too Flicky, you’re a good protector and friend"

Flicktail says, "One day, I will have to pass the sword on....."

Zork nods "I know, maybe ta Lee, he seems de best choice"

Flicktail says, "If lee would be around me more, I would like to. But he seems to keep is distance"

Zork says, "Lee has been around, he helped stop de wildcat at de gate. If it were not fer him...well it wouldn’t of been a good day fer de abbey or..probably me""

Flicktail says, "I really miss my son...."

Zork says, "Well talk ta him then"

Flicktail says, "I try to...he just goes quiet on me....."

Zork says "But he does help protect de abbey, he does a very good job of it, he a very good head guard"

Flicktail says, "Aye I could not agree more...."

Zork nods "So he do a good job, I trust him with me life and you do a good job as well, I trust you with me life as well."

Flicktail nod nods "How is your Daughter doing?

Zork says, "Zinnia is doing good far as I know. Spends time in de library or where de old records are kept""

Flicktail says, "She is a smart beast, I wish I had her smarts"

Zork nods "She seems ta love ta learn, it’s a good thing and she learns quickly too"

Flicktail says, "Well you have a daughter be proud of"

Zork says, "I know"

Flicktail asks, "Does she learn abo0ut your forge?"

Zork shakes his head "She hasn’t really been thar but once"

Flicktail says, "Well I guess it is not fer every beast"

Zork says, "Tis alright, if she wants ta learn sumthing I can teach her maybe..maybe" He frowns a little and shrugs it off."Maybe"

Flicktail says, "Aye Maybe be a big word"

Zork says, "Well she is recorder, she may not haf an interest in de forge"

Flicktail says, "Aye that is true, and Recorder is a lot cooler work, not as much heat"

Zork chuckles some "Well I won’t be at de forge..too much with de gate pieces done”

Flicktail nods.

Zork asks, "So, other than earlier your day been good?"

Flicktail says, "aye very good I would say"

Zork nods "I haf had a..so so day I suppose"

Zork stands slowly "I best get ta sleep Flicky, good night"

Flicktail says, "Night" He then takes Thorn to her bed.

Zork then heads back inside, but to the dorms so he can sleep in his own room.
