I was born in a tiny mouse settlement on the north western shores. My father, my sister Eveline (who is twenty seasons older) tells me, sailed away before I was born. When I was a season old searats came and captured the village. I was lost among the scrabble and forgotten at the village. Almost a season later, while I was held prisoner, Eveline saw me escaping the fortress that they made. She shepered me into the forest and took me to the cottage that belonged to us. I said "De peeple in thu bilding want us to partley." "Parley?"
Eveline asked. i nodded. "Hmmm"

We arrived in the leader house. Eveline murrmered about parlying.

We went to the fortress the next. Our leader, my older brother, stepped out. "What do you want vermin?"
There leader, a wildcat said, "We want you to work as slaves and live in our shadow."
"No" "GET THEM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
Then there was a mass killing. My mother ushered Eveline and I back to the safety of the village. We had left the elders and the young ones there, but I insisted.
The next day we packed. We turned down a long dusty path that led to the southlands. The lands of plenty. My mother took over as leader. It was long and harsh, and I grew very hungry and tired at times. Eveline and I had warriors blood, from my father, so we didn't complain.
Then we arrived. After a summers worth of travel, strife and suffering we came to redwall with less thatn half of our number. But we made it. :-)
