Subject: Entering the room, the short wildcat soon finds a victim to grab and question. Holding the squirming dormouse a few inches off the floor, the cat interrigates her new prey.

She leaves the fort and returns to her camp in mossflower, about ten minutes south of the western tip of the fort.
Upon arrival at her camp she is greeted by a black polecat with bright green eyes that are edged by chocolate colored fur. The female polecat eyes her companion's basket and before she can open her mouth the wildcat tosses her a muffin and pops one of the steaming foodstuffs into her own mouth.
After carefully eating her muffin, the polecat leans against a tree and watches her friend finish the other muffin.
"Klover, what did you find out?"
Klover, who apparantly was not ready to give up stuffing her face just yet, shot the polecat a nasty look that clearly said "leave me be".
Eyeing her poorly dressed friend (who was wearing a gray sleevless shirt and black pants that were too big for her and patched with green patches in more than five places) the polecat tried again as Klover started to like her fingers.

"Relax Thorndance, it's called Fort Mossflower and we won't be harmed there. Run by two mice gals with wicked fighting skills and plenty to offer two travelers like me'n you. I walked into their dance hall and got this nice grub from some sweet sugary spice place." Klover got up and started to tie a blue green bandana pirate style about her head. "I didn't find that guy you're lookin' for, but I didn't really stick around for long. Got some odd looks..."

"You would get odd looks, being as short as you are and dressing like that, you're bound to get some strange looks, wildcat."

"Ottercat."

"Stop that. You are /not/ an ottercat. Your mama was /not/ an otter an' neither was your patter, so stop declaring yourself to be something you aren't."

The 'ottercat' merely waved Thorndance off with a paw and slipped out of her raggedy boots.
"Stop bein' all moody on me. I'm gonna go for a swim here real quick and give you a chance to pack your things. I'll pack mine right after an' then we can head to Fort Mossflower and spend a night in real beds for a change."
Shouldering her bathing things in a small burlap bag Klover headed out to a small stream the two has been using as their own personal water source.

The suns last rays found the two travelers headed for the main gate of fort mossflower, both wild and polecat trailing their possesions behind them. Thorndance gave the road behind them one last look then turned her eyes to Fort Mossflower- and the adventure that awaited them.

Thorndance shifts her luggage to her other shoulder and looks up at the two beasts who had called down to them. Klover responds. "Hey there!" Waves and grins. "Let us in and we'll state our lengthy demands!" The polecat closes her eyes and sighs. "I wish they'd just shoot me... Then I wouldn't have to listen to your ridiculus notions all the time."
