A blow from the flat of Goldenblade's sword knocked him flat into the water. Swiftly his companions hauled him out. " Listen you waterclogged dirtbrains, where do otters go?" Striding through his assembled vermin, he singled out one particulary nasty looking specimin of a fox. Bristling with weaponry he stared back at his leader blankly. " I repeat, where do otters go?" Was the question. " In the w,w ..water sire." Was the hesitant answer. " Smart fox! What's your name?" " Badtail sire." " Fine!" Turning to face his vermin he said, " Otters go in the water. This is a great river. She must be far off now. We must follow her ! The river Moss opens somewhere near the Abbey of Redwall. That's where she'll go. And that, is where we'll go too." Striding to the front of the crowd he began to march. Everybeast followed him.

Once she slipped in she cut through the water like an arrow. Many plants and interesting pebbles tried gain her attention, but failed. Not until she was sure that she was far enough away did she pop up to look around. Nothing but trees. She ducked back underwater.

Silence reigned for a minute. It was broken by the Abbess speaking. " What does it all mean?" " Nothing that I know about" Said Skipper. The general murmur broke out. Oakleaf tweaked the Abbess's whiskers. " I know what it means! You haven't had breakfast! Come on Skipper let's go get some." The three bustled off toward where Friar Clementine was serving breakfast.
