Chapter Four: Pre-Feast Activities
Addie revealed her story of why she came to Redwall.
"Oh, I see. Well, uh. I better get going to the feast. You're welcome to come, of course."
"Thank you, Matthias, Warrior, Sir," Addie stuttered.
"That's all right, Addie, you may call me Matthias, if you like."
"OK, Sir, um, I mean Matthias."
"OK, then. I'll see you at the feast." Matthias left and Mattimeo and Addie were left alone, again.
"So," Mattimeo said, finally after Matthias left, "are you coming to the feast tonight?"
"Well, I'm here, so I don't see why not," Addie said, still staring at the doors Matthias walked through just minutes ago.
"Ok, so I'll see you at the feast tonight, I guess. So bye, I guess," Mattimeo said awkwardly.
"Ok, bye, I guess," Mattimeo started walking away. "Wait!" Addie yelled after him.
"Hmm?"
"Uh. Um. Oh, um, I'm not very familiar with the abbey grounds. So do you think you could show me around before the feast?" Addie stuttered.
"Oh, umm. Sure, I guess," Addie and Mattimeo walked through the doors, "So, where do you want to go first?"
"Oh, I think that young Addie has something hidden from your young Matti, don't you think?" Abbot Mordalfus was standing next to Matthias in the doorway, "And I think Matti has something for young Addie, too. That's very odd."
"What's that, Abbot?"
"The fact that Addie is an outsider."
"What does that have to do with anything?"
"You were, too. At one point, that is."
"I see, Abbot. I also see what you're talking about with Addie and Matti. Hmm."
Matthias ended the conversation deep in though.
Addie and Mattimeo toured the building and grounds until the great bells in the bell tower rang. The feast has started!
