-The Autumn of the Maple Star-
Recordings of Rosabel, Daughter of Fwirl and Broggle
So, the leaves have finally started to turn gold and the north wind blows stronger than before. Russano the Wise tells us that autumn is just around the corner! He and some of his loyal hares have decided to stay a while longer before they return to their home, Salamandastron. The dibbuns spent the whole day trying desperately to find the mysterious "Oortum"! Haha...those dibbuns just amuse me so with their innocence! Abbess Mhera tells me there shall be a feast in the Great Hall tonight to welcome the coming of autumn and to celebrate the anniversary of Cregga Badgermum's death. Also Filorn has finally taken over from old Friar Bobb as Redwall's head cook! This will be her first feast that she has had to organize. Everyone is looking forward to what Filorn has decided the menu should be! My father Broggle told me that he was making an enormous batch of Redwall honeycomb biscuits! Yum, my absolute favourite! Nimbalo and Boorab been taking lessons from Drogg Cellarhog and learning about making those ice- cold drinks all us Redwallers love, wot wot! I shall probably be busy tomorrow recording the important highlights of the feast into my notebook. I have only just recently finished the story of the Taggerung, my first ever writings! I still wear the tailring that Deyna gave me fastened to my cloak. Oh no... it's those noisy dibbuns again! Oh well, I might as well go help with the feast.
Rosabel stood, corking her inkpot and stowing the bark parchment and quill in the desk drawer. As she reached for the door handle the door flew open admitting several dibbuns riding on Deyna, Warrior of Redwall's broad shoulders. He grinned bowing.
"Recorder Rosabel, please let myself and my mighty friends escort you to the feast!", Deyna said bowing and winking at her, trying to get her to play along with the dibbuns' game.
"Ho yurr, marm, let us'ns be atakin' yurr to de feast!" said Groobly, a small mole, in the moles curious rustic dialect.
Rosabel smiled. "Of course, please escort me to your fine feast!"
As they walked down the corridor, the dibbuns ran ahead letting Deyna and Rosabel have some peace and quiet. Deyna laughed watching the little ones pretend to fight off hordes of fierce imaginary sea rats.
"I wanted to escape from Nimbalo and Boorab, but this vicious lot of beasts is just as bad!" he muttered.
"I heared that!" said a small voice near Deyna's ear. "Don't yous ferget 'bout Amby!"
Deyna laughed again. "No, I didn't forget you my little squirrel friend!" Amby was a special favourite of Deynas' and the little daughter of Rosabel. "Don't touch Martin's sword, OK matey? I don't want you hurting yourself on it!"
Deyna wore the sword of Martin strapped to his back, with the red pommel stone showing just above his right shoulder. He had earned it, only a summer ago when he learned of his true identity as a Redwaller.
As they reached the Entrance Hall, they were intercepted by Rustal and Ryer, the squirrel twins who had only just come to Redwall last summer. Both of them were warriors, Marcus an accomplished swordbeast and Ryer a better archer than anyone, even Deyna, in the Abbey. Rustal's sword was battered with an orange stone on top. It's thin, lethally sharp blade hidden in it's scabbard. The sword hung from Rustal's belt were he rested his paw on the hilt. Ryer held a yew longbow with a red-bound handgrip in the middle of the bow. A quiver of arrows, each fletched with sparrow feathers, was slung on his back.
"On your way to the feast are you Rosabel?" Rustal asked shyly, looking at his footpaws. Both he and his brother were very taken to Rosabel. "Cos' Marcus is waiting for you in the Great Hall..."
"...he was helping put up decorations with Foremole and her crew." said Ryer, finishing off Rustal's sentence.
Being twins they often thought about the same thing, finished each others sentences or knew when the other was injured, sad or scared. It often came in handy. One time when they first came to Redwall, the Abbey was under attack. Rustal had been injured in Mossflower woods, lying unconscious by the stream, an arrow in his shoulder. He had chased after several rats that had fled into the woods. Ryer had felt a sharp pain in his shoulder during the fight and sensed that something had happened to his brother and went with Skipper, Swash and Blekker to look for Rustal. They found him and carried him back to Redwall and Sister Alkanet patched him up.
At that moment Marcus, Rosabel's husband, came dashing up, planting a kiss on Rosabel's cheek and lifting Amby off Deyna's shoulders and onto his own.
"Hi all! Come on, everyone's at Great Hall helping set up all ready!"
'Let's go, Daddy, come on! I want to help!" squeaked Amby bouncing on her father's shoulder in excitement.
The six off them sprinted towards Great Hall just as Abbess Mhera reached the Great Hall.
