I like your idea that Ranguvar is a Reguba!
Thoughts on Eulalia!
The villain group is surprisingly funny. "We don't know how to forage. Where does soup grow?"
BOTH of them are, I forgot there were two! "You! Laugh!", "Er, ha ha?"
Is Gorath the first badger to get a vision from Martin?
The charm is in placing different character archetypes together. Shrews and Long Patrol hares aren't rare but a lone hare with the Guosim is refreshing, just like a thief and a badger lord.
Thank God it doesn't spend a ton of time at Redwall in the first 3rd. That annoys me in later books.
I remembered, of all things, the plugs and dips.
It's hard to be enthusiastic about a new concept like Tabura knowing it wouldn't come back even if he hadn't died. It's a great concept though.
I like to think Rangval is part of the Reguba line of squirrels from Marlfox.
This is really short because....it's really enjoyable! I'm so surprised! I was wary for the first 3 chapters but it keeps things fresh and makes tweaks in the material that make sense. This and Loamhedge were pleasant surprises!
Can you show "The Pearls of Lutra"?
The title of this book is a simple translation from English into Russian. We can say that it is called the same as the original.
Felldoh: I like chaos. Keyla: This isn't chaos, this is just suffering. Felldoh: I like suffering.
As the smallest diving mammal hunting for this water shrew lasts only a few seconds, but their technique underwater is remarkable. Their eyesight is poor so they rely on foraging along the bottom to find movement with their long whiskers. To find stealthier prey they have the rare ability to smell underwater. By blowing tiny bubbles of air they can detect scent particles in the water. Nature on PBS
I had the luckiest opportunity to observe a little mousey guest at work 🩷
Happy little friend 🩷
They were very brave! They poked their nose out once before I could get my camera out, and I just happened to be looking in their direction to see their little face. They ran out further and further until they crossed the whole sidewalk and didn't turn back ☺️ smart creature~

sawney rath calls tagg 'son' as a way to assert power, not out of any kind of familial fondness or paternal feelings. he calls tagg son to remind the juska that he is the one who trained the taggerung, he is the one who the taggerung looks to. hes not taggs father and tagg doesn't consider him a parental figure. its explicitly stated. family isnt taggs motivation, or sawney's approval- predicated on tagg's compliance- would have mattered more.
Martin: Watcha doin? Gonff: Stealing Stormfin. Martin: Scandalous. Martin: Can I help?
Here’s to Brian Jacques mouth-watering forest food 🤤 (seriously doesn’t it sound so tasty??)
little luke doodle!! and awesome new sketchbook off redbubble‼️❤️
had a dream that i was rewatching martin the warrior and so much random shit was changed like, there was a dalmatian character, clogg had a goat as part of his crew, and the music was changed to, what i can only describe as nightmare music.
there was also something about a cancelled movie that would have been funded by arby's.

What about Outcast of Redwall?
Here it is. However, we simply call this book "Outcast".
Badrang, being dragged out of bed at dawn by Clogg: Ow! Ow! Fucking fucking fuck! Clogg: Sorry, chummer! Methinks ye've got Talk Like a Pirate Day mixed up with Swear Like a Sailor Day.
Bisky: Alright, I talked to Brother Torilis. I got the scoop. Bosie: What did he say? Bisky: “Hates you with the power of a thousand suns”. That’s a direct quote.
They're adorable!! This is great!
Marteoin and gongf
The books that have wildcats - Mossflower, Lord Brocktree, and High Rhulain (and a bit of Redwall itself), LB and MSF take place before the abbey is founded.
Redwall takes place after those two and there's only Julian left.
So they died out on the mainland, but Green Isle is so isolated, it still has a loch ness monster expy - something from the dinosaur age and wildcats who didn't get killed because they didn't go anywhere.
So Green Isle is an island stuck centuries in the past but we can't really tell outside of it's residents bc the world as a whole isn't technologically advanced. It also ties into the fact that there's a direct mention of Kaltag's family being domesticated cats 'by something'.
It's basically this series’ version of a prehistoric setting untouched by time.
That's clever!
