The Bat On The Bridge

From Redwall MUCK Wiki


A short role play at the bridge area of the road, Scioto is slightly moody after just loseing a main Ferravale member but gains a beast who is messenger and Recorder in one==

Scioto walks along the Ferravale path and grumbles as he walks, he remembers the talk with his former head guard.

*************************************************************************************

Braen speaks “Sorry Scioto, this is important, they are family and I have to go and sadly it’s fairly far away, they will need leadership, I will be leaving on a boat from Collinsel and it take a little while to get there.”

Scioto nods “Understandable, you are needed its fine, just go”

Brean smiles “Thanks Scioto” And heads off.

Scioto sighs and looks over the bridge and into the icy water below and seems to be thinking deeply.

Alura walks, yes she is walking along the road and looks over at the cat and looks like she wants to try and avoid him as she quickly in a jogging pace gets to the other side of the bridge.

Scioto looks over and raises an eyebrow “Greetings? What is with the slow pace then quick pace on the bridge, dislike bridges?”

Alura frowns “I..ummm, no dislike cats I mean” Oh great that is the way to greet him as she backs off “I mean cats are fine creatures I am sure, long as your not hungry, your not are you? I can catch you a fish or some nice shellfish or watercress greens I can pick them, yes they can be found in winter right along the river edge”

Scioto shakes his head “I do not eat bats or mice, the only creatures I eat are wood pigeon and fish, and sea food at times when find it like crayfish or clams maybe”

Alura nods, “T-That’s good to know sir, I am Alura a bit of a wanderer from my home, well former home as I am sort of without one now”

Scioto nods “Well there is Redwall or Ferravale to live in”

Alura looks interested “I can offer skills either place, I write and read and could be a messenger or write down details of a city, or events or history like history a lot and this area has a lot of it”

Scioto looks interested “Like a recorder? Ferravale needs one of those, I am Scioto chieftain of Ferravale and its just down the path to your west, mostly vermin live there but I keep out slavers and power hungry beasts who may pose a threat.”

Alura nods as she listens “I could be a recorder yes, or messenger or both..I have papers, quills, ink, and even paints and colored papers and wax for seals”

Scioto holds up a paw for her to stop, “Enough..if you want the job it is yours, either job”

“Both” Alura states, “Both please sir and I promise to do a very good job of it’"

Scioto nods “As you wish, let use head back into town, You even get a home of your own if needed.”

Alura asks “Any just one room huts?”

Scioto hmms and nods “Yes we have a couple empty, I will make sure you get one.”

--Not much else happen just telling where the homes are, The bat got home and now Ferravale has a Recorder and Messenger..Yeah!!—
