A/N: Well, Yarin Baskblade here. I hope you've enjoyed the story so far. I've got a few surprises coming later on in the story, but for now, this is what you get, I guess. Plot development, basically. Well, here it is.

Chapter 4

Sarrim's mouth watered. It seemed like they were going to have a fantastic breakfast! Hot scones, apple pie, cherry tarts, October Ale, strawberry fizz, and water. He had never seen so much food for breakfast in his life.

Abbot Farasen was the perfect creature for his job. For such a young age to be Abbot he was also smart beyond his seasons. The mouse was clad in the usual Redwall attire, which was a green velvet robe with a brown belt and a metal belt buckle. Hands in sleeves, he walked over to where the old recorder mouse stood.

"G'day to you, Father Abbot."

"And good day to you, Sarrim Furash. I can tell that you've been writing in your journal."

"Well yes, Father, but how'd you know?"

"I have my ways," the Father Abbot replied. Sarrim just smiled and sat down. Abbot Farasen seated himself down to the old Recorder.

"So, Father, was this breakfast your idea? Are we celebrating anything?"

"Sadly, no, we aren't. I guess we just have a lot of food for some strange reason. Well, I'd best eat up quick and get back to my work!"

"Yes, me too! But until then, we can just have a little chat."

The two friends talked for a long time. Redwallers came to eat breakfast and Redwallers went. What had started out as minutes turned to hours, and soon time had found its place inside the mice's heads.

"Oh dearie me! I must get back to writing!" exclaimed Sarrim.

"And I must get back to my office. There is work to be done. I guess that time flies when you are having a good conversation with an old friend, eh Sarrim Furash?"

"That's right, ol' buddy! Wait, why am I callin' you that? I'm the one that's old here! Ha ha, well, I'll se you at dinner then?"

"At dinner 'twill be! See you then!"

The two mice walked off from Great Hall, a great breakfast eaten with a full day of work and writing ahead of them.

A/N: So yeah, pretty boring, but it's all I have for now! Mwaa haa haa, I'm so evil! Well, until next time, my friends and fans!
