.~..Boring life of an Abbeydweller.~. « Thread Started on Nov 6, 2007, 9:40pm »
A lone fox sat alone in the Great Hall of Redwall Abbey. Wynn sat at one of the long table looking to the mighty tapestry of Martin the Warrior -builder of Redwall and guiding spirit of everybeast in the Abbey itself. He stared at it and sighed. Being a fox, who lived most of his life at the Abbey until his teen years, and still being here was quite boring. He took one of the daggers he kept in the back of his belt, along with two others and a short sword in a sheath, and stabbed at the wooden oak table with it. He continued this process for a while, just staring at the tapestry.
He needed out. Out as soon as he could get out. He put one of three of his mother's daggers back in his belt and got up to stand next to the tapestry. his orange rusty fur glittered with the fire light against it, and stood out against his black tunic. He touched the bottom of the fine piece of art with a black paw and looked into the warrior mouse's eyes. "What should I do. . . You of all should know." he said to the tapestry. He smiled and chuckled to himself a bit. He was talking to a piece of cloth in a room all by himself. He heard the screech of Dibbuns out in thr grounds through the open windows whom were playing in the good summer sunlight.
He shook his head and sat down on the stone floor, staring at Martin's sword. The perefect blade. Well balanced, finely crafted, keen as any sword could be, and able to cut through anything. Plus beautiful to boot. A leather handle and a fine red pommel stone on the bottom. Made from a star that fell from the sky and forged at the great mountain of Salamandastron and made by the Badger Lord Boar. He felt alont the handles of the two short sword he carried. One thrust through the right side of his belt for his left paw, and the other across his back slanted to the right for his right paw.
If he had a sword right that right now, he'd leave this place and go on hiw own, living the life he was supposed to, if his parents were still alive. He growled to himself slightly clenching a paw into a fist. He swore he'd get the vermin who slew his parents, and he'd do it by any means necessary. Putting one footpaw in front of the other he walked around the Great Hall, deciding on what to do. He pawed at the necklet around his neck with the emerald set in the golden holder, while with the other paw he toyed with the bracelet placed at the base of his tail, where he'd had it since he could remember. He nodded to himself. Tonight at sundown, he'd leave the Abbey for good. With only his daggers, swords, bow, and quiver of arrown with him. . . And maybe some vittles as well.

((Ah...could you refrain from using the colored text, please? I've got sensitive eyes, and that blue becomes even more virulent against the dark red background.))
"Asking Martin, hmm?" inquired Aeoris, stormy blue eyes following the restless fox's circuit. The black wolfess was on a short break, her white apron - surprisingly spotless - still tied about her middle. She padded silently to the scored table, running a paw over the small pocks his blade points had left. "...better'n hurtin' the poor table, I suppose."
The elder Kirru sister seated herself, flicking an ear in his direction. "You don't plan to be leaving on your own, do ye?"

((So sorry!! **bows so nose hits ground** Ow...))
Wynn gasped and turned around just in time to see Aeoris sit down at the table he'd been stabbing. He stared at her and bowed in respect. Returning to his rightful position he stared at the ground and shuffled his footpaws. "Well, if he talks to us, why can't we talk to him, right?" he asked curiously. He shook his head and scratched at the back of his neck. His emerald eyes looked into her stormy blue.
"I can leave when I want to. Besides, I vowed I'd kill the vermin whom slayed my father and mother. And I don't want to do it too late or they'll be killed by some other beast." he clenched his apw again so tight he only stopped when his claws pierced his skin and blood started to dribble. His eyes turned cold and he kept staring at her. "Besides, what could you do to stop me?" He snorted air through his nostrils and crossed his arms over his chest.

((^^; Oh dear, we might have to get Raethiun to bandage you up, eh?))
The wolfess looked thoughtful as she chewed the end of the bone-beaded braid that hung on one side of her face. "Why not? Plenty of beasts talk to 'im. Ye just never see 'em doing so," The thin black plait dropped from her lips, and she turned her distant gaze towards the armor-clad mouse. She gave the younger Redwaller a sidelong glance through half-lidded eyes. "I'm not against ye, an' I do hope ye don't think of me as just another adult tellin' ye what ye ought an' ought not do. I'm against it, in honesty, though I can do nothin' about it," she sighed, "I won't be stoppin' ye, an' I know how it is to be a restless beast, myself ever one, an' all my family ever before. At the least, I can offer ye help, if ye'll have it."

((Yeah, XD))
Wynn smiled at Aeoris and bowed his head again. "If you could help me, I'd be greatly honored and thankful." He smiled and sat down across from her. He put his paws on the table and drummed them. "I'm not sure where t'go, they could be anywhere." he hit his head against the tabetop in frustration.d "Okay, I need as much help as I can get." He admitted. He looked back up to her and smiled. "But you'd seriously help me?"

((LOL You'll have to pardon me. I haven't Redwall RPed in ages, so I might be slipping in an out of things as I try to adjust. ))
"Well, provisions ought'n be a problem, I'd think, though ye'll be needin' a map. Mossflower is expansive, not to mention the lands beyond it. I'm no good with directions, I'll tell ye that much, but--"
"Oi, oi! Sis! I been lookin' from bow t'stern fer ye! 'ungry beasts're about, missy, meself included, eh!" Aeorys' racuous bark sounded throughout the Hall, the younger sibling a stark contrast to the cook. "Chattin' wi-- Whoops!" Tailtip over ear, the clumsy wolfess tumbled, collapsing in a comical heap before the tables. She batted herself over the head a few times, as if to clear her vision before rising.
The cook winced, though her awkward sibling seemed to take no real hurt. "Ach, sit ye down. Ye'd fall whilst standin', Aeo."
Aeo #2 erupted in a wide, sharp-toothed grin, chuckling good-naturedly. "Yore right, I would, wouldn't I? Enny'ow, who's yore mate, eh?" she inquired, gesturing towards the fox as she sat down.

(( 'Tis okay! I've only just strted Redwall Rping! I've Rped on other sites, but not Redwall ones... ))
Wynn chuckled as apparently Aeoris' sister came into the Great Hall and chuckled some more when she tripped. He smiled to her and bowed his head. "My name is Wynn." He looked to Aerois and leaned over to whisper to her. "Is she always that clumsy?" He put himself straight again and smiled to Aeoris. "Yes, a map would be wiseful. D'you know anybeast who can help me with that department?"
He rested his muzzle on the pad of his paw against the table and started to toy with his necklace with the emerald embeded in it which also had his first name 'Wynn' in it. He gripped it tightly and clenched his eyes tightly, as if seeing something he didn't want to. Opening them again, he wiped at them to get the tears out of his eyes from the flashback he had of his parents being killed.

"Wynn, eh? Luvly name there, mate. h'I'm Aeorys Kirru, th' younger, an' ye kin call me Aeo fer short! Er...that is, o' course, iffens ye don't be callin' me sis that already," she trailed off, snout wrinkled in thought. The golden-eyed wolfess tilted her head at her sibling. " 'e don't, do 'e?"
The elder stifled a chuckle. "Nay, he doesn't, fret ye not, Aeo," From the corner of her mouth, the cook replied, "Aye, that an' then some!"
"Ye say summat, Sis?"
"Nah, nothin' - just a note to meself. Say, Aeo, you'd be the grand master o' ships an' such whatnot in the family now, eh? Why not ye be helpin' Wynn here? He'd be needin' a map," the cook suggested. As scatterbrained as her sister appeared to be, Aeorys was quite skilled in navigation and held quite a bit of woodland knowledge.
She squinted an eye, tongue sticking out comically to one side as she contemplated the idea. "Hmm, s'ppose yore right, Sis... Where'd 'e ye a'wantin' to go, eh Wynn?"

Wynn smiled at Aeo, He was liking her already. He laughed nicely at the joke Aeoris playe on Aeo and wiped tears of mirth from his eyes. He sniffed and when he looked back to the two sisters, he had icey eyes with a fire burning in them((Does that make sense? O.o)). "I'll need a map for all of Mossflower Woods... and then some." he added, with a ferm stare and a confident stare. He looked to Aeo is particular. "Would that be possible?" He asked her, now with a slight look of neediness in his eyes.

((I'd be thinkin' so.))
A little puzzled by the laughter, Aeorys blinked, settling back as the fox's determination returned. "Hmm..." The younger Kirru tapped a claw on her chin, mentally reviewing what terrain she knew already. "That'd be quite a map, mate, though I'd be thinkin' we could patch summat t'gether fer ye. Would ye be 'eadin' towards th' sea by any chance?"

Wynn shrugged at Aeo and put on a distant look. "If parent slaying vermin travel by boat, then yes." He ended it with a growl and a dagger in the table again. He rubbed at his temples with his fingers and sighed. "Sorry... I just lose control sometimes..." he smiled meakly and bowed his head to Aeo. "Your assistince for my trip would be greatly appreciated and much valued." He smiled at them both, as if his temper sudden;y dissappeared

The snowy one winced, though her sister seemed not to notice the sudden thud. "Err, vermin travels by all sorts o' means, mate. I'm a bounty 'unter meself, an' iffens ye were raised in Mossflower, I'll be wagerin' me favourite stew 'at they're still ramblin' about th' place. Mossflow'r ain't any particularly bad place - vermin'd be known t'raid forever in 'er," Her scraggly, half-chewed tail twitched, and she hopped up, suddenly, fervor in her coin-like eyes. "Well, mate, we won't be gettin' no maps sittin' on our tails! Up an' at 'em, laddo! T'th' library with us!"

((I will! Don't worry, it'd be my honor!))
Wynn grinned happily and rose up as well taking the dagger and sheathing it. "Yes, to the library!" He grabbed her paw with his and practically dragged her up the stairs and tot he library, calling back to Aeoris: "Thanks for everything! Hope to see you soon!" His laughed echoed as he went up the stairs.

((LOL I can totally imagine this in the Redwall animated series with Aeo being dragged off like that. XD Epic comedy thar.))
The black wolf smiled after them, waving them off. She rose slowly, eyes resting on Martin a moment longer before resuming her duties. Adventure was for younger beasts, and those who never quite seemed to grow out of adolescence. Might as well start cookin' their rations now.
