Gowa's Story
Many made up characters to add to redwall series,: Outcast of Redwall
* Prologue *
In Cavern Hole, an old badger sat in an armchair surrounded by dibbuns.
" A thory miz Aroni! Pweez! " A mouse babe asked of her. " Well, if that's the reason all of you came down here for, why not? This is the story of how my great grand mother came to Salamandastron to meet Sunflash the Mace. It is a long story which I will tell only parts of it at a time, one part each night to make it last all winter. " The dibbuns leaned close to hear her story.
* 1 *
Mother and father were dead, killed by Tsarmina's creatures. Kassandra has disappeared. I wished to raise my little brothers in peace, but that would be impossible. Even now that we had heard of Tsarmina's defeat, Vermin still roamed the woods. Four seasons later I decided it would be best if we left Mossflower Woods.
* * *
A score and a half of day's travel south away there were a cave that within had suprising contents. There was a badger, an otter, and a kind rat. The kind rat, Yiso, had found the badger and otter and had been watching over them for quite a while.
* * *
We had been traveling for three seasons during which we had found some lost creatures. They were an otter and a squirrel, both were less than a season old from their talking I figured out they were just born when their parents were killed since then they had been orphans with no guardians. I named them Malbre and Seriba.
One day we were heading east and we heard a screech. It had come from a pit to our left. I went over to it and looked down. There was a kestrel laying with broken wings. I climbed down an picked it up and climbed back up. We stayed at that spot for about a season letting her heal. Her name was Carane. She decided to stay with us for the rest of her life.

Kassandra and Caron left the rat and went traveling around the countryside looking for Kassandra's family to stay with for the time being. All Kassandra remembered of her family was their were 3 other young badgers, one her age. She decided she would do anything to find them. Also she remembered another badger, and she somehow knew he would be at Salamandastron, the fire mountain of hares and badger lords.
* * * * * * * *
I knew we were close to the mountain, but how close? Then, movement. A weasel and a slave line
" 'Owa! Elp! " I took a swift count.
" Where is Seriba? " But I knew.
I drew my saber and went after the weasel quietly, telling my brothers and Malbre to stay still and quiet. As I came up to the slave chain's camp I noticed there were young leverets among the chain. The vermin were argueing over food by the campfire I decided that it would be the best time to attack. I brought down my saber between two leverets, breaking the chain with a loud clang.
" Eulaliaa! " I yelled, the war cry of badgers and hares.
The vermin jumped up drawing their weapons. Then we heard an answering war cry.
" Eulaliaa!" Across the clearing a badger and hares jumped out of the bushes. The vermin started attacking. The hares surrounded the vermin in one swift move and started to kill them.
AN:this is the second try at the redwall story, I probably would have written more on this one but I didn't.
