Matthias asked the crowd of mice before him, "Does anyone know anything about these new peoples that just came?"
Suddenly, the abbot stepped forward and spoke: "don't ask me, I'm just the old guy that's lucky enough to rule this old pile of bricks!" Glaring back at him, Matthias turned his head as Basil's drunken singing could suddenly be heard from the cellars. "My bum is on the chair, my bum is on the wall! Look at me, my bum is on the chair!"
Matthias looked around at the laughing animals and said, "I think Redwall just fell apart."
Storming back to the gatehouse, Matthias muttered something that sounded a lot like, "I might as well be talking to an, erm, old pile of bricks."
Just then, he felt a sharp pain on his head. "What the?!?!" He looked around and saw a small crumble of brick. The next second, the whole wall came down.
