A new Blacksmith

From Redwall MUCK Wiki


-Somewhere by Ferravale Path-

Scioto is patrolling and making sure the guards have water to drink and are not getting too hot, least its later in the day so less heat.

Belindo seems to have no problem with the heat, maybe even likes it, course he is cold blooded and yes they can also get too hot, but not as fast, he walks along the path.

Scioto catches sight of the large lizard and so do a couple guards who are now on high alert, the cat walks a little closer carefully and keeps his sword in view.

Belindo looks at the feline and snorts, “What fuzzy feline wantzzzz…izzz against law of town to walk on de pathz?”

Scioto shakes his head, “No, just being careful, Last time I seen a monitor, lots of monitors it wasn’t for a good reason, they were evil and was led by a crazy fox to take over the village but they were stopped and slayed”

Belindo snorts, “I am not savage evil lizard” He crosses his muscled arms as he stares down the feline.

Scioto looks the monitor up and down and nods, “Then, what do you require or just passing through?”

The lizard answers, “Heardzzz need Blacksmith, izzz that correct?” He waits all the while he keeps an eye on the feline.

Scioto nods “Yes we had one but he left, it would be good to have one again, you are welcome to the job.”

Belindo nods and goes to follow the feline inside “Izzz good then”

-Blacksmith shop-

Scioto leds him inside and shows him around “It can be worked on and the sleeping quarters fixed to your..likening” He rubs his head and sighs.”

Belindo nods, “Yezzzz, think will take offer and be town Blacksmith.”

Scioto sighs as he shows him around; he rubs his head a little feeling a headache coming again.

Belindo scans the room, "Not perfect but will...do...” He watches the feline closely, “zomething wrong?"

Oakenpaw walks up and taps Scioto on the shoulder very gently with Matilda

Scioto frowns, "Headache, it’s the heat and...” He turns slowly to see Oakenpaw and half nods to him. "G..Greetings"

Oakenpaw hands him a packet of headache powder, "Ello Chief Chap..um..did you know ya got a Monitor problem in yer smithy?" He says with a wry smile.

Belindo snorts, he looks at the hare and walks closer, "Problem bunny?...I am zee blacksmith fuzzy."

Scioto nods, "Let’s just go to the tavern, not so hot there, course could be hotter suppose if the Smith was working, been a little empty for a while, luckily not needed it"

Oakenpaw chuckles with a sparkle of mischief in his eyes, "ohhh Looks to be a real bad one here Chief Chap” He walks up to the Monitor and looks up at him..."Bunny huh? well if you let me call ya Monitor" He sticks out his paw, "Oakenpaw some calls me”

Belindo shows his fangs once and studies the paw, he snorts “After today no one izzzz allowed in ere'..tis underztode?" He walks past the hare and feline "I require food and the feline requires a cooler place" He walks on towards said tavern.

Scioto keeps a watchful eye on the monitor and raises an eyebrow, “Hope I did not make a mistake"

-tavern-

Belindo looks at the hare "The name izzz Belindo not lizzy"

Scioto walks in slowly and sits down, he gets a glass of water instead of ale for now and sips it slowly.

Oakenpaw eyes the Monitor "Fair enough...Don't want to be unsociable, I wouldn't want to do something like walk pas a beast wot has his paw out hmm? he smiles

Belindo snorts and sits down, yeah he is not a paw shaker it would seem, "What izzz on de menu ta eat or drink?"

Oakenpaw says, "Well as I said My Mate makes all the food and I serve the drinks....so wot say we be friends...Wot do ya say mate?" He asks the monitor "And I do have a question for ya"

Scioto just sips his water and lets them talk, he then sighs as a guard taps him on the shoulder, "Fine...." he growls slightly and stands, exiting the tavern, he has a guard stay behind, just in case the monitor is a problem.
