Well, as you all know, I am here living in Redwall. But how I got here? Well, if you wish to know, you'd better sit down, it's a long tale!
Past the mountain of Salamandastron, lie a large dwelling of owls,in the kingdom of the great queen Kuna, known simply as the Kuna owls of Lunar connections, or KOLC. Within the group, there was a high and powerful leader, Dusk. Dusk was a kindly owl, who took his position with modesty and sympathy, thus becoming a great keader. His beautiful wife, Dawn, had the same characteristics, but she was a little more argumentative, nonetheless a good lady. Nothing bad had happend to KOLC since the very creation of the organazation. Unfortunatly, the worse was only to come. In most tales, the bad evil vermin try to murder the good, but the good win, and all that junk. Twilla's tale, however, is very,very different. On a cold, breezy night, Dawn perched on the edge of the nest, quivereing with excitement. Dusk huddled up next to her in a comforting gesture. Dawn was to have her first eggchick! At last, in a few minuets, a pure white egg lay beneath Dawn's feathers. Together, Dawn and Dusk watched as they prepared to become parents. A small, jagged tooth popped from the egg. The shell cracked, and a fluffy little chick emerged from it. Dawn gasped and Dusk shreiked with joy. But little did the couple know that after Twilla's birth, only sadness and despair would come. Dawn flapped breathlessly back to the hollow,Twilla enfolded in her wing. In the hollow, Dawn looked Twilla in the eye and told her, " Little owl, I shall name you Twilla, and such you shall forever be. May your life be kindled with happiness, and may the sun forever guide your paths" Dawn hugged Twilla closer to her. The owl's voice in a mere whisper, she spoke softly to Twilla, "And I vow to be the best mother ever, and I will never leave you. Remember, I am always with you, nomatter where I am." And thus, Dawn closed her eyes, and fell asleep, dreaming the dreams of endless eternity. With one finall breath, he chest heaved, her feathers ruffled, her eyes opened for the last time, then closed. A cold gust of wind busted through the trees, and the baby owlet snuggled near her mother for support, but found the body cold. Lifeless. Dusk, unaware of his mate's death, trundled into the hollow. Seeing Dawn, he gasped, his anger raging. Dawn! DAWN! It couldn't be possible, it just couldn't...- but it was. In his fury, he turned on Twilla. "Gaaar! You, my traitor daughter! Could you have done naught more to help my mate! Arrgghh! You are banished from ym lands!!" And Dusk shoved Twilla out of the nest, sending her in a dizzying spiral to the ground. But, for once, Twilla had luck on her side. A lone wildcat was out hunting, but he was the famed Gigere, relative of Gingevere. Scooping the little owlet up, he carried her to the famed Abbey of Redwall. Resting her in the care of Abbess Lycian, who took care of the little chick, and adored her, until one day, Twilla betrayed her. Twilla ran off, and joined DAB, forever torturing the elders. She became known as quite a feind, and hated by the elders. Abbess tried to bribe her DFB, but Twilla resitsed and stuck with DAB! Woohoo!
