Saol patted Skipper lightly with a diggingclaw and turned back to Vincent, "Hurr hurr, Maister Swiftfur, wot can ee bee doin' fur ee while yur at ee Abbey."
"Wud yur show Oi 'ow to foight, Maister Blaze, Zurr?" Diggory balled up his digging claws into fists and shook them menacingly.

Blaze smiled fondly at the molebabe and nodded. Sure, Diggory. I'll show you, but you gotta promise to work real hard and practice hard every day. You promise? He held out his paw for the molebabe to put his on to signify his promise as was in a tradition in his tribe.

Vincent made a short bow and said, "With all due respect, Mother Abbess, that's what I should be asking you. You've already helped me in taking me in here and feeding me." There was a time where Vincent would've tried to use the abbey creatures in any way possible for his own gain, but relying on the compassion of others had taught the shrew some compassion of his own.

Saol smiled. She was always glad to see a creature who was willing to help. "Well, Zurr, wot do you'm bees knowin' 'ow tur do? Ee always bee needin' 'elp aroun' ee abbey zumplace."
Diggory placed his digging claw atop of the otter's paw solemnly. "Oi pratkiss allee toim, Maister Blaze. You'm jus' teech moi wot t' bees doin'."

Blaze smiled and ruffled the little mole's ears fondly. Alright then. Have you eaten anything yet? Part of boxing is eating healthy so that you stay fit and have lots of energy. You also need to excersize on a regular basis.

"I can do most anything you need me to. If you need another cook, I'll be there. I could even help train your guards, if you thought they could benefit from it. I doubt many of them know all the many uses of a rapier. Whatever it is this abbey needs most."

Saol thought a moment about the shrew's offer. "Tell ee the truth. Ee Abbey may bees in danger. Oi fur one'd be gurtly pleased tur 'ave sum o' our beasts who could use a blade if et be necessary. Could you'm bee teachin' 'em, Zurr?"

"Indeed I will," Vincent said with another polite, respectful bow. "Do you have any rapiers? I know almost all there is to know about using rapiers, but I don't know a thing about any other weapon except bows."

Saol gave his question some thought, "Oi don't bee knowin' wot sorta weapons ee 'ave. Ee beast tur ask'd be Soilas ee squrrel. 'E bees en charge ov ee defense." The molemaid wished they didn't have to think about weapons and fighting. Oh that she could have been chosen as Abbess in more peaceful times.

Blaze smiled fondly at the little mole and nodded. I have had it before, and it's very good. We don't want to be too full, though. That makes us sluggish and could give us a stomach ache. Do you feel hungry at all?

Vincent liked mock fighting for sport, but not real combat. "I agree, Mother Abbess. So where could I find this Silas?" The shrew hoped that if the abbey was attacked, he would be of some use, at least in better-training the soldiers and guards of Redwall.

Saol was about to tell the shrew that Silas was out in the grounds training the abbeybeasts in different defensive tactics but she was interuped by Tamar running in looking around quickly and the upon seeing the molemaid running over to her. "Mother Abbess, Silas needs you at the main gate. We've got visitors: Long Patrol Hares, and. . . and a fox, Saol!" Tamar tried to make her understand from the tone in her voice how worried she was about the appearance at their gates of the fox who claimed to be a good beast.

(OOC: If this fox is supposed to be my character Atu, he didn't end up joining the Long Patrol. If it's someone else, that's fine, though.)
