**Raiden looks over at Song and Rachelle.**
I grew up north of here, borderlands, so did my wife; Zahi...
**Raiden's voice trailed off, his wife had just entered, her torn grey blouse showed the tattoo of a winged female mouse on her back, a mid-length skirt, with a belt, and a over-full pouch tied round it, a bow on her back, and a pair of Scramasax daggers on the back of the belt.**
Errrrrr... Hi dear... How are you?
Rather good actualy... I'm in a good mood, only 2 rats tried to kill me in the woods today.
**Zahi gave herself one of her rare smiles.**
So this is where you have been hideing from me then...
Errrrrrrr... No... I'm part of an army... Wait a minute... only 2? Those vermin are getting rather sloppy... Wait another minute... How did you find me?
I followed the rumours.
The rumours of the White Knight... I love my reputation... I almost forgot! Zahi, this is Songwind, and this is Rachelle, ladies, this is my wife, Zahi.
**Raiden gestured to Song, and Rachelle in turn as he was speaking.**
Charmed, I'm sure...

Who are you to ask of me?
Calm down dear, it's Tritan, he's a pal of mine, he's asking if you want a drink...
Fine, a single brandy, or maybe a double whiskey, I don't touch ale, it's horrid...

*Rachelle, seeing the way that Zahi talks, does her best to imitate her while speaking to her.*
Ah, yes, Zahi. I do believe that I have heared a great deal about you. It is truly a great pleasure to have met you.
*Rachelle bows deeply and lets her still wet hair fall in front of her face to hide her silent smile.*

**Zahi gives Rachelle a houghty glare, then begins to smile.**
No beast has ever had the guts to mimic me, not even my husband, and he is very gutsy...

**Song looks gittery as she executes a graceful curtsy. Being raised in Redwall she has yet to get used to warriors and such. She smiles shyly at Zahi and looks up from her curtsy. She stands up and steps over hesitantly to Zahi. ** I am Songwind Rosemelody Goldbrush. Please call me Song. **She glances uncomfortably around as she searches for her escape passage.**

**The rogue casts a glance at Song.**
So I've heard, Raiden often told me tales of you, how you were a good opponant, and things like that...
Errrrr does any beast have any song requests?
**Raiden attempted to move the conversation away from personal issues.**

You said that, often, but I am asking if you want me to sing any thing...

I wasn't talking to you! I was talking to your wife. **She frowns at him, her shyness momentarily forgotten. She smiles at Zahi. Then she turns back to Raiden.** So. I'll be right back. **She walks to the partly concealed doorway and returns holding the strong and scarred paw of a large squirrel, which positively dwarfs her.The male squirrel is dressed in an eathy brown tunic and yellow leggings. He hefts a long Javelin and smiles bravely. Song grins up at his solid face.** This is my husband. His name is-
**The other squirrel smiles at her.**Brawn. Brawn Oakbrush. You must be Raiden, I've heard lots about you.

**Setting his lute on the table, Raiden rises, and offers Brawn his paw.**
Nice to meet you Brawn... Say, were you up in the northlands about 4 or 5 years ago?
Song, Raiden told me you could sing beautifly, but I have never heard you sing...

**While the men were talking Song smiles at Zahi.** He did? Well, Maybe I'll sing soon.
**Brawn smiles at the mouse and shakes the proffered paw. He thinks for a moment and nods in Raidens direction.** Yes, I was....

I thought I saw you, I think I did... It was the battle for Hannod Tor, I saw a squirrel warrior leading a platoon of warriors to the crest of the hill, and held it long enought for renforcements to arrive. I'm pretty ture that Squirrel was you...

Hmmmmm........That wasn't me. I was in the platoon. Unlike my wife.**He glances lovingly at Song.** I was never an officer. I was in the thing though, in the front. Song was there too. Thats were we met.

Wow, it's so hard to tell with only one working eye, at a distance of about half a click, I was there, I was at the area that command called Foxtrot-Oscar-Oscar-Tango-4... I was Sergent Major of the assualt squad sent on the right flank... It was my last command post, before I quit being a merc, never even gave me my pay cheque the ungrateful little so-and-so's... I was cheated out of 60-odd gold coins... At least double a captain's pay that was...
