RW Abbey: Pond


The abbey pond is practically the place to go for relaxation. The orchards that settle onto one side of the water hole provide decent shade for the more heated months to come. Various types of wild flowers grow about the edge of the ground that lightly overhangs into the pond. The pond seemingly invites one into its cool depths, which holds its fish life and multiple species of shrimp and other water dwellers.

Spring has come. Due to the rains, the abbey pond is just gently lapping at the edges of the ground. Soon to overflow lightly if the spring rains don't let up soon. Plant life seems to explode here in a variety of colors, sizes and aromas.

Zork walks along the pond edge and tosses a rock into the pond and watches the ripples spread from the circles the rock makes and grins, he tosses another one and chuckles.

Oz hears Zork as he looks over at him, a small group of dibbuns is playing by the pond, he takes off his glasses and cleans them best he can and places them back on blinking a couple times "What are you doing?"

Zork grins widely as he walks to Oz, "Throwing stones into de pond Ozzy, it's all in great fun, ya havin' problems with your glasses?" He asks pointing to the glasses as he speaks.

Oz shakes his head "No, not now they just get dusty a lot lately, they are fine now" He sighs as he watches the dibbuns, a couple a little further than he would like and squints his eyes a little, "You two, back here now" The two mice obey and get closer to where Oz is, "Sorries Papa Oz" They giggle and head over to play with an otter dibbun as Oz looks back to Zork

Zork smiles "They listen fairly well...you sure you’re ok Ozzy?" He sounds concerned.

"Yes they do listen to me" Oz raises an eyebrow, "Of course I am fine Zork, just the sunlight is bright sometimes and....well it's bright leave it at that" He states quietly.

Zork nods, "Just seems, does the sunlight hurt your eyes any? just asking and curious"

Oz says, "Maybe a little, but like I said..sunlight is bright, maybe the glasses making it more bright, I don’t know I really dislike the glasses but lately have needed them more often to read and see things far off, not like way far off just a bit far and yes way far off but what beast needs to see way far off anyways unless your a guard on the wall tops maybe""

Zork listens, "I wouldn’t know why the glasses would make the sun brighter, maybe you need a new pair?" He waits on a response.

Oz shakes his head "No I do not, this is the 2nd pair I have had in the past, well almost 4 seasons now, guess time flies sometimes doesn’t it?"

Zork shrugs "Perhaps but usually when your havin' fun" He laughs as he jokes but then is serious, " But seriously, you never needed glasses till shortly after you were rescued from Vladmir Stormfeather..and that was almost 4 seasons ago."

Oz narrows his eyes at Zork, "That is something I rather not discuss, it was not the best season to remember and what if I have needed glasses since then, what of it?"

Zork frowns "I was just saying, maybe something happen while you were captive, I didn’t even know you were till I was told and I came looking fer ya"

Oz folds his arms over his chest "I did not blame you for not finding me, the place was hidden and well-guarded, surprised any beast found it but that’s the past and just dumb luck that I needed glasses after that"

Zork ask, "Was it? " He sighs "Ya were in a deep faint for almost 2 weeks Ozzy, I know I remember and the Master Healer at the time had ta shoo me away at least once cause ya almost died, and when ya finally woke up you were in de infirm for 2-3 weeks more after that till ya finally was able to walk around...with a walking staff!"

Oz says, "The walking staff was due to my knee, nothing to do with my vision, a dagger went all the wall to the bone and it didn’t get a chance to heal right, even was infected once, my vision was never...well somewhat effected maybe with the darkness and...it’s the past"

Zork frowns "And what?...I mean dark cell fer that long wouldn't help but ya would get better, wouldn’t ya. You had eye problems then too, when ya woke up didn’t you. be true full little bro"

Oz sighs, "Yes but you try and not have any when in a cell that long! And put up with being asked over and over and over again for secrets or info and refusing to give it, once that insane fox slapped my full force with that gantlet paw of his, I was passed out for 3 hours Leon said, he was also surprised it didn’t kill me, it’s why I have the scar by my right eye, it's mostly healed by traces of it are still there."

Zork frowns as he listens, "I..I was never told, figured something happen but you never said what...so never bugged ya ta, maybe it effected ya more than you knew?"

Oz glares at Zork, "Are you a healer?..Are you!. Affected me...just leave" He gathers the dibbuns around, "Snack time soon wash up and be in Cavern Hole" The dibbuns nod and rush off for snacks as Oz looks at Zork, "You still here?"

Zork backs up a little, "Please..Ozzy, I didn't mean ta upset ya I am just concern and trying ta figure all this out, what if it’s more serious than what ya think or..or what else happen in the cell or before, please"

Oz glares more now "How was I captured. Sure, let me relive it for you!!..I was fooled, fooled by a so called changed ferret or weasel, whatever it was..he kidnapped a dibbun, I gave chase to the St Nihms church yard, the dibbun got lose and that’s when I meet Vladmir face to face, he..he had the dibbun vole and I would of pounced him, but little hard when 2 dozen ravens come out of nowhere and attack me, pin me down, more come with chains to tie me up..clawed me and pecked me, I couldn’t get loose"

Zork listens, half way not wanting to and half way wanting to know, he backs up from the yelling, well good thing the dibbuns are inside now.

Oz shakes his head, "Vladmir killed the dibbun..in front of me! Then he had his bolas and..I know they hit me least twice before I started to black out, was at least once more..woke in that cell alone for who knows how long, till he caught Blisa and Leon..he had meant to have the abbot but Leon pushed the abbot out of the way and was caught instead..if Leon wasn’t there probably would of died in that cell but..." He looks away, "Look leave me alone and all by the way thanks...for making me remember!" He is mad and clearly upset as he holds back a growl and kicks a rock into the pond.

Zork looks down, "Ozzy....please don't get upset and I am sorry..just trying to help you" He starts to say more.

Oz glares, "Too late, get out of my sight!" He walks away only to trip over a stray toy sword and stands muttering and throws the toy sword into the pond, he can throw fairly far as he starts storms off, "Leave Zork!...Go elsewhere if your going to bother me!!" He then proceeds to walk off, he bumps into a passing novice and says a sorry before going inside.

Zork watches Oz go as tears form and slowly go down his cheeks, "Ozzy..." He whispers and sits down on the ground as the tears flow like rain and he lets them come.
