Father Abbot, did you hear
that?
Hear what, young Matthias?
Martin the warrior spoke to
me.
Hm.
Martin spoke to you?
Yes, he said, "Matthias."
Matthias.
Yes, he--
Matthias, Matthias, whatever
will I do with you?
Well, I want to be like him:
a great warrior.
Matthias, it’s true Martin
was a great warrior, but that
was a different time very long
ago.
When he came to the Abbey,
injured and weary, he gave up
fighting forever and became a
mouse of piece as we all are
here at Redwall.
Come, come, young Matthias.
Stop dreaming.
We have work to do for my
jubilee feast tonight.
And, remind me to get you a
habit that fits.
Yes, Father Abbot.
Thank you, Father Abbot.

Thank you, Father Abbot.
Perfect.
Matthias, you almost drowned
yourself and Brother Alf today.
He gets sea sick you know.
You must respect your elders.
Oh, I do, Abbot Mortimer.
But, I did catch a huge fish
for your feast.
I’m a great fish fighter.
When you first came here,
years ago, I promised to treat
you like my own son.
Do you understand?
I think so, Father Abbot.
Then, now you’re ; be a
good son of Redwall and put away
these foolish ideas of being a
fighter.
Even your hero, Martin, hid his
sword when he joined us.
Maybe I could find it.
No, Matthias.
No swords.
These are our days at peace,
Matthias.
Remember that.
Run along now and help where you
can.
Yes, Father Abbot.
And try to be worthy of my
trust.
I will try.
