meanwhile. taggle was investigating the basem,ent. an inner wall had collapsed, opening a room he never knew was there. it was a great storehouse of weapons, the biggest being the bow, on a pedestal in the middle. he stepped forward tenativley ((you get whoever the voice is...unless its me.... i don;t think its me.....is it?))

No It's not) Stripetail climbed up the closest ladder. This area appeared to be a family residence. in the corner there were the remains of a couple of small beds.. Stripetail searched the room, but found nothing except a small dagger with the name 'Erista' carved on the hilt. "A blade possibly meant as a present.." He said, Picking it up and putting it in his robes. he then climbed down and went to the next ladder... this seemed to be the kitchen (it will take me a few posts to find her.. and it is a her..)

taggle stepped forward and touched the bow. a powerfull force coursed through his body."take me and vengeance shall be yours." it seemed to say. force born of desperation flowed through him and enabled him to pick up the bow. he slung it over his back. it looked comical as the bow was twice his size. he ddecided to go find stripetail. he emerged to see him going up a ladder and followed him....haphazardly because of the bow.

Stripetail looked around and saw taggle trying to carry the heavy bow... "Where did you find that?"He asked stopping. That bow is too heavy for you, you'll be able to use when you're a bit older..' He said to taggle "So take it off your shoulder ans set it down... there. He said pointing to the ladder that lead to the kitchen...

you notice the bow is glowing on his back. with some trouble, he sets it down by the ladder, and it stops glowing. he follows stripetail. insticnctively he yells out the old clan war cry and holt greeting, hoping to get a response."eee aye eeehhh!" he yells, but as he is only small, the sound doesn't go a long way.

Stripetail chuckled as he heasrd the war cry..." You need to work on that.. That cry is supposed to strike fear in vermin... as well as serve as a greeting. They searched several more rooms.. some of them homes, others were meeting ha;lls. Finally. Stripetail heard the cry again. It was coming from the left side of the room. in one of the few rooms they had not searched. Hello?' He called out "Momma?' came the voice, it was now clear that this was an otter maiden.. This room was larger than the others they had visted. and was less damaged than the other. there was a small door, on the far end and it was shut. Stripetail could hear breathing on the other side of the door. "Don't be afraid he said softly. as he reached the door and suddenly pulled on the knob. the door flew open revealing a small cowering figure. "Come on out child" stripetail said kindly. "The vermin are gone..'

She kissed him on the lips,, the kiss made a loud smacking sound, and then she realized what she was doing, and quickly pulled away and wiped her mouth in horror. StRipetail smiled. "It's alright, you're just happy to have someone around again. "

(Don't read anything into it but grateful innocence No.. I haven't seen noought but you and mista squirrell since My mom hid me away..." Erista said. She was wearing a small otter dress with a small belt wrapped around it. tucked into thye belt was a small sheath. "I gotta this belt and sheath for me birthday which was a week ago. It had a little dagger too, but that's probably gone forever" She said.

'Good idea" Stripetail said, and the grateful Erista began to cry with happiness as she put her dagger away. "come on Erista, you're staying with us from now on..' He said.. "Yes. Mista magician...' it's Stripetail, erista, Lord stripetail to give me my title, but Stripetail will do just fine.." _ What about Stripey?' Erista asked innocently... "I'll consider it..' Stripetail replied. "now taggle, what is it you want to shoew me?'
