Stripetail turned to the newcomer. "well, this gathering is now a throng. a badger, two squirells, and now a stoat, Please come joinus. what is your name?' he inquired kindly. he didn'r reek of malice like most vermin did, perhaps this was one of those rare 'good' vermin.

Upon seeing that he was accepted by the group, Xendraw relaxed. Glad I'm not going to be driven out this time. He kindly answered Stripetail's question, "Me name's Xendraw. Wot's yer's, if'n ye don't mind me askin'?" The young stoat was glad to see that his species was not going to lose him any more socialization.

"Eclipse the wolf." Eclips replied blandly as the badger and a stoat arrived. It seemed they were now a small group...and odd one at that. He was glad that Redstripe and Xendraw had distracted the old squirrel stripetail from asking questions. How could he of explained that his job was the kill anyone his boss told him too?...

"Redstripe the Strong at yer service mate." He nodded a gretting at Xendrew then looked over at Eclipse,"I may not ave yer sense of smell wolf, but I pick up traces of blood on you. You a warrior, not trying to pry into your personal life, but you don't look like any wolf warriors I have seen." His aged but feirce eyes showed that look, I dare you to lie, he smiled warmly,"ye don't have to answer me, just the ramblings of an old beast." He chuckled,"How come almost everytime I see you Stripetail, ye almost never seem to be any older? Wots yer secret eh?"

Eclipse chuckled silently. "Oh...you could call me a warrior." More of a mercanery... he thought to himself before pulling out three kunai. He silently began sharpening their edges, dull was imperfect, and imperfectness got people kill....

Stripetail smiled. "I'm complicated.... let's put it that way old friend." Stripetail's magic, to be frank kept him from aging, he had learned that in his youth, as long as he kept using it, he would not age past a certain point, whhich apparently, he had reached many seasons ago. unlike Redstripe who appeared to be about one hundred seasons of age, and was probably about that old, Stripetail did not look his age, this was a good thing, he didn't want to look like he had seen about 500 seasons or so.

"so anyway, eclipse" Stripetail continued "what is your job, exactly? You're kinda vague..." He gave the wolf a glance as he said this.. "No doubt, that whatever you do, its mesy work.."

Messy. Oh yeah, very messy. How does one lie to a seer? He thought over his reply. "I'm a sword-for-hire." It was partially the truth, he was a sword for hire...and his sword was used to murder beasts. "I came up here traveling and looking for business, found it, and now I'm here. I just finished up on a job..."

"Your an assassin , kunai right? Can't ever remember the name of those little knives that well...but they're the tools of assassins and ninja. I travel alot, just so ye know mate. I thought maybe ninja, but you said sword for hire...they never refer to themselves as that." He stretched a bit,"Been down similar roads mate, ain't no need to hide your business, specially when there's a magical beast and a seasoned warrior." He winked,"I don't have any malice towards you cause ye kill for money."

Xendraw was a bit surprised at the nature of his new group. He had experience in the past with 'swords-for-hire,' being from a vermin clan. "Aye and now that we know enough about Eclipse 'ere, wot about yew, Stripetail?" he was forward with his questioning. "And yew too, Redstripe, wot's yer business 'ere? Just out o' curiosity o' course. I don't mean to pry," he was forward, yet kept cautious by adding the final sentences. He truly was curious about these beasts, and wanted to get off of the subject of the wolf assassin, Eclipse.

Stripetail turned and loked at the Stoat. "As I've said to my old friend here, I'm complicated. I'm a seer, which meabns i can see into the past and future of creatures, and sometimes foretell thier destiny. Its not perfect, somtimes I don't get much information from reading the creature. Some have deliberately forgotten their pasts, or have simply created false memories to hide their true pasts. Each beast has their own reasons for doing so.. If any of you have questions aboiut your past, I could perhaps help you with them" The Seer said.

"I'm just out travelling, hate staying in one place for to long. Even at Redwall I can't stay. Still got that youthful desire to travel and what not." He sighed,"But my ole bones don't like it too much, but my muscles hold 'em up." He grinned,"And that great Redwall food."

Eclipse nodded. "You could say that." He answered. He didn't feel comfirtable in this group. A badger warrior, a Seer, a traveler who likes cheese, and a stoat. He smeered the dirt with a kunai, drawing what looked like another wolf. A female.

"Do you have any family or friends" Stripetail said quietly. "If you don't want to tell us, that's fine. Its up to you" He had noticed the drawing. Was this wolf wishing for a mate, remembering a female friend or relative, or simply drawing an outline of a wolf? It could be one of those, or none..
