Lee and Marek's Short Chat( Marek's Revenge TP)

From Redwall MUCK Wiki


This happens a few hours after [1] Marek has calmed from being his ealier rage and walks into the infirm to find a sleeping Lee and well..wakes him up to have a chat

Marek has calmed and now comes to the infirm to see how the badger is doing

Lee is sitting by Oz, barely noticing Marek's arrival. He dozes off and on.

Marek hmphs, "Do wake up Mr. Lee and lay down if your tired"

Lee sits up suddenly and peers. "Wot do ye want?"

Marek folds his arms over his chest "You want to chat with me did you not Mr. Lee?"

Lee sighs. "I did, yes. Frankly, I have questions."

Marek sits down "Fine..talk, and I will say the injured badger does upset me as well. One thing he did..does is watch over dibbuns but he is here and not with them now, I also, hate slavers and it seems Hudson is one now...now speak"

Lee frowns. "Oy, ye hate slavers... Anyway, just *wot* am I bein' kept around for, hmm? Wot is me... purpose?"

Marek looks at him "Purpose? You beasts are just living here, whoever is stuck is stuck Mr.Lee..unless if say Hudson was in control your not chained to walls and you still are able to eat and walk around this place with some strict rules yes “

Lee hmms. "I see. Guess we owe ye our lives..." His voice remains calm, though, like a normal chat.

Marek says, "Let me ask you, why did you try to march out..and no weapons or armor, do you wish death cause its..as some say..so bad here?"

Lee shakes his head. "Not that so much. I tried ta leave because Hudson has me wife an' son. 'E hates me. I'm afraid that he'll kill them ta spite me."

Marek says, "Well you couldn’t of saved them without a sword.." He makes a fist "And Hudson stole a sword from me, yes I had it hanging on a mantle at my old base but still he had no right"

Lee shrugs, but a plan quickly hatches. "Ye know, it seems like a lot o' yer minions are not very trustworthy..."

Marek glares, "Well I will say a couple in this place I trust more than them"

Lee nods. "I can perfectly unnerstand why. Ye know... now, ye didn't 'ear it from me, but I over'eard Zarola sayin' she were tryin' ta find the Tapestry ta keep for 'erself..." He acts completely serious, despite his lie.

Marek snorts "No one knows where it is, for all I know you abbey beasts destroyed it to keep it out of my paws"

Lee shrugs. "Per'aps, but if I were in yer place, I'd watch that lizard. She ain't as loyal as she pretends."

Marek says, "Perhaps I will Mr. Lee, was there anything else you wised to speak of"

Lee nods. "Yes, maybe." His voice goes cold. "If ye just let me kill Hudson, ye will have me...Allegiance..." the words are hard to say, but he does, "As Master of Redwall Abbey... forever. On me word. I don't care how, but Hudson is mine."

Marek looks at the otter, he studies his face, "You would...join me?"

Lee frowns, but nods. "I... would." He certainly looks genuinely serious. "I just want Hudson dead, an' me fam'ly safe."

Marek at first looks like he is just going to not listen as he walks off, he returns in maybe half an hour with..well, it’s Lee sword and some padded armor with chainmail for his chest, legs and arms, even a small sort of cap to protect his head and around his neck, he lays them down “There is one thing I will say...I do harm beasts yes but not dibbuns, dibbuns are the future Mr. Lee. Whether they become the abbeys or maybe join me if they wish still...the future. Now I am not sure where to look as I do not know where the badger hid and judging by the wounds he had Hudson is not alone, he couldn’t be alone, he has friends"

Lee takes his sword, somewhat surprised, but he nods. "Ye have me word, as me bond. I never break me word, as ye know...sir."

Marek nods "Good and no talking with beasts of the abbey...now go and if you can bring me back his head" He exits just to let his guards know to not harm the otter as it seems Lee works for them now.

Lee sheathes his sword. This is certainly a new turn of events.

Marek walks into the entry and speaks with his guards to not harm the otter as he grins “The otter Lee..works for us now.” He smiles, yes Lee..Head Guard of Redwall works for him. He places his paws behind his back and heads inside, he will sleep god tonight and he makes sure the guards are doubled at the gates, he has more archers as well, if Hudson returns he gets full of arrows, if anyone comes to the gate that’s against Marek , they get full of arrows. He walks on to his chambers and goes to sleep, two guards at his locked door at all times.
