Barra BowBeast (Tricky Tribe)

In the Spring of the Babbling Brook, little Barra Bowbeast, a good wildcat, was snoring gently in her Tricky Tribe Dorm. Suddenly, out of the mists of half-dreams and thoughts, a mouse appears.
Barra would recognize him anywhere; the armour, shield, and sword: he was Martin the Warrior.
'Barra,' he told the sleeping Dibbun, 'grow up big and strong. You must defeat your family one day. You are different from your father, WarCat Brokenfang.
'As a tiny babe, you were rescued from them by Long Patrol hares, and sent to Redwall as a hope that you'd grow up strong, brave, and kind. You are kind, but you must be even stronger to save Mossflower.
'Sleep now, and remember to grow strong. Be a warrior, but kind at heart. I will be watching you. Sleep now, and watch for me in your dreams.'
*****
In the morning, the little cat awoke at dawn and went down to teh tapestry of Martin. She looked up at his kind face, then remembered his words. Barra was curious, but knew that she would hear more from the kind mouse.
