Atta walked through Mossflower, accompanied by her ferret friend Vira. She was going to Redwall Abbey to live! It made her excited. Vira left her and headed back to the band of healers she belonged to. Atta waved and looked back after Vira, her mind a whirlwhind of thought. She dimly recalled her otterbabe days, when her parents had been killed when a tree fell on their temporary home in a storm. The otterbabe managed to crawl out of the wrecked hut and sat shivering, awaiting dawn. She was picked up by a traveling band of healers. It was made up mainly of foxes and ferrets, and she was educated in the ways of the healer. It was there that she made friends with Vira, a ferret about her age. In the band, Atta grew strong,swift, and peaceful. Now, she was an ottermaid, and the other healers sent her to the Abbey of Redwall to live with her own species. In the distance she spotted the huge sandstone building, and felt a brief connection. Maybe, she reasoned, her parents came from there. Atta began to run toward the Abbey, where there was hope of friends of her own kind. She was at the great gates by evening, and knocked on the door with her remaining strength. Atta collapsed. When she regained her senses, she was in a clean dormitory with soft sheets on her. As she fell asleep, Atta knew she was with friends.
