Pike sells his swords

From Redwall MUCK Wiki


Pike walks back into the great hall, his hood up as he stops at the entry, he is walking slowly than he usually does and then goes to sit back down.

John asks, "wor've ye been?"

Tristan has gotten up and is leaning against the far wall of the Great Hall, his hooded form in shadow. He gazes at Pike from under the edge of his hood.

Pike stays quiet before he speak, "I went fer a walk....and then got something out of a knapsack I had,..and..."He pauses, "Got rid of....well they be elsewhere now."

Flicktail asks, "they are?"

Pike stands and walks over to Flicktail, "Had a hard decision ta make...and made it, maybe de abbey can put sumthing ta good use."

Flicktail asks, "What soumthin would that be?"

Pike pulls out a small red pouch and lays in by Flicktail, "40 gold coins.."He takes off his hood and then slowly his cloak showing his change of outfit and even shoes, "I...sold me blades..dont need em' anymore."

Flicktail says, "As you will Pike that’s a very serious matter but..The coin should go to Father Abbot...for the Abbey"

John says, "w...wot? ye sold yer swords?"

Jamie slips in the front door still shaking off some water, her tail wiggling outside as she shakes the last bit of excess water off, before entering into the great hall, she just loves the pond nearby, this time however she has a nice small fish just enough for herself in her paws, fish still flapping some.

Flicktail says, "aye he did...Makes me very proud o him"

Tristan is still watching from the other side of the room, his interest drawn to the conversation. He steps over towards them, "So... this means a life of peace?" he asks Pike.

Pike nods "I can...give em' ta him then Flicktail, need to talk ta him now too." He smiles a little. "I.."He looks at John, "Yes..don't wanna be a warrior no more and want ta get my anger isssues dealed with too and...and this will help, being a..a novice and if stay with it a brother in de order."

John says, "hello Jamie. I cod never sell my sword, it wos my fathers"

Flicktail says, "Pikes were important to him too..."

Jamie stands up tail looking around, "wot wot my FISH!" she leaps about here and there before settling down looking at the kitchen before she wonders over closer to the kitchen before she slips into the kitchen, soon the smell of cooking fish flow out of the kitchen into the great hall.

Pike listens, "My twin blades were....passed down, but I have no...family really and a novice don’t need blades....Martin de warrior even laid down his sword too, I read that in the library."

Flicktail says, "Aye he did"

Tristan glance over his shoulder at Jamie, raising an eyebrow curiously. He looks back to Pike, "I hope you're happy with your choice. The abbey's got a lot to offer, and I’m sure they'll need you."

Pike nods, "I still plan on helping de abbey best I can, but in other ways now, maybe learns a new skill...who knows"

Tristan nods, "Well, there's always plenty of work around here it seems, so I bet you'll learn something."

Flicktail has left.

Pike nods, he yawns and smiles some, a smile he hasn’t had in a long time "I think I need some sleep...got a feelin' gonna need all de sleep I can get." He heads to the bunk room.
