Seasand jogged swiftly down the tide line, chivvying the two young hares behind her.
"Step oot faster there, mah wee bairns. We 'ave far t'go t'day." She turned around, running backwards.
"I say, sarge ol'gel, wot are we doin'?" Southpaw said, picking up his pace.
"Didna ye hear, Southpaw m'chap, we're goin' t'find driftwuid." His twin brother, Eastpaw, imitated the sergeant's northern drawl.

Another hare stood looking up at the mountain. This one not in the regimental uniform of the Long Patrol but rather wearing a borrowed Redwall Habit and a traveling haversack on her back. Her arms were crossed over her chest as if they were itching to hold something that was long forgotten. She looked lost and confused and indeed she was. It had been a long time since she had set eyes on this mountain and a lot had happened in the mean time, a lot that she couldn't remember. Bits and pieces of it were coming back to her but for the most part it was all a blur.
She saw the other hares making their way down the beach and hailed them, "Hello, there. Nice day isn't it."

"Hello, there. Nice day isn't it."
Seasand paused in her run, shading her eyes as she looked east, at the newcomer. "Aye, 'tis, but no' for these two." She motioned to the two young hares, panting from drawing the heavy driftwood sled through the sand. "Ye luik familiar, marm." She added, looking over the hare again. "An' fruim Redwall, if Ah'm no' mistaken."

"Hmm?" She looked down at her attire that the other hare was obviously refering to. "Oh yes. I was there for a season or so. I - er - woke up there. Don't remember much before that. Think it had somethin' t'do with that blinkin' great rock there though." She pointed at the extinct volcano that dominated the beach.

"Did ya get hit on t'head, marm?" Eastpaw dropped his affected accent to ask, his voice jarring and competing with his twin's, who spoke a second later.
"That's Salamandastron!" Southpaw felt the need to educate this newcomer, who did not know of the mountain. "You didn't know that, did ye, marm?"
"Hush!" Seasand cuffed him lightly about the ears. "Is there anything I can help ye wi'?" She addressed this to the lost looking hare in front of her.

((They would probably know who she was she was only supposedly killed three seasons ago but she may have been out on patrol for a while before that. Anywho she was a rather well known Captain in her day))
She pressed her eyes shut for a moment and tried to think. "They called me Verbane. Well I asked them too. It sounded familiar for some reason." She smiled wondering if the name sounded familiar to any of the beasts in front of her. She looked at them expectantly for a beat and then continued on. "And another thing . . . Ally. Do you know anybeast called Ally? They said I called it out when I was asleep. Can't think for the life of me who Ally might be."
She turned back to stare at the mountain. "Knew about Sala though, infirmary keeper said that's probably where I needed to go when I told her about the dream I had. . ." She drifted off scratching one ear.
