Redwall

Feathered Friends and Foes (2x8)

: 17, 2000

Matthias's raft drifts towards the rats on shore, watched in horror by Mattimeo and friends as the arrows fall and the fish nibble. In the roof of Redwall Abbey Baby Rollo, Mrs. Churchmouse, and Cornflower wait to be thrown down unless the abbey surrenders. Triumphant, Slagar drags the misrible slaves onwards as Warbeak desperately and unsuccessfully still seeks Matthias. At Redwall, little Sister May comes up with a potion to drug the birds with food, and at The River it is frightened Cheek who finally risks swimming and saves Matthias and company - by eating vast a number of nibbling fish. As Abbot Mordalfus prepares to exchange hostages at Redwall, Warbeak joins Matthias at the river to defeat Stonefleck's rats. She delivers the decipered message which will help to locate the young one but is killed in battle trying to save oher sparras. Matthias heads south, deeply saddened by the death of his old Redwall ally. Slager will pay dearly for his evil.
