You have been travelling through Mossflower woods for days. Your paws are numb from walking, and your food supplies had run out ages ago. Your destination is Fort Broadstream. You had heard the legends surrounding the place. Vermin were terrified of the thought of it. Countless Hordes of badbeasts had perished at it's gates. It lay next to to the Broadstream, where it split into two smaller rivers, one heading south into Southswards, the other heading towards the West coast of Mossflower. You had been following the course of the Stream ever since you had left your home. As you round a bend in the stream, you see it. Fort Broadstream! It was built with the same red sandstone as Redwall Abbey. There was a deep ditch around the perimeter wall and when the stream flooded it turned into a moat. The Fort was well built and it's founders couldn't have chosen a better site. It was surrounded on three sides by the stream, so Vermin could only attck properly from one side, and that side was always heavily guarded. A noise from behind you makes you turn around. You are surrounded! There are squirrels in the trees, hares, mice, shrews, hedgehogs, voles you can even see some foxes and a Stoat. You look behind you and see otters, still wet from coming out of the stream, moles standing next to freshly dug tunnels, but standing in front of them is a sight that makes your jaw drop. There is a gigantic male kestrel, it's mammoth wings out stretched. It says in a loud, angry voice, "Are you Friend or Foe?" You reply in a quiet voice,"Friend." The kestrel says "Good." before flying away. Around you the soldiers have dispersed. Only a young male red squirrel with enormous ears remains. "H-hi. M-my n-name's Matt Treemal. I'll show y-you t-to the F-fort." Matt shows you to the gates of the Fort. "H-hey D-dungo. O-open up." "Wait a minute, will ya'." You hear the sound of paws pounding on the stone. A little while later the huge wooden gates of the Fort are swung open. You see a small beaver walking towards you. "Hi Matt,"he says,"I thought you were out on patrol." "I w-was,"Matt explained,"until I d-decided t-to c-come b-back. I b-brought along a f-friend." "Yer gonna enlist, are yer?" asks Dungo. "Yes, Yes I am." you reply. "Good. We need a noo leader, if yer didn't know. Ole Flamehead the Badger Lord retired a season back." "W-well, I b-better b-be g-going. L-lightningbeak the K-kestrel will b-be w-wondering where I am." with that Matt picked up his wooden staff and ran out of the open gates. Dungo watches Matt run into the forest, before turning to look at you. He says "If yer need any help, just ask someone, or if yer want yer can ask me." Once he finished speaking, you start to walk towards the main fort building. Written by Matthew Davies (aka Matt Treemal) Redwall is written by Brian Jacques
