An era of peace has blanketed over Mossflower Country, times of strife and war and disease long gone from the minds of those near Redwall Abbey. The sword of Martin has been lost for many seasons, there has been no need for it. However, when Mardr, the thief, comes from the south, who will be the Shield of Redwall?

After our heros acquire the ship "Wuddship", Log-a-log Big Club takes them and the newly freed slaves to his shrew village. As families reunite and the group rests, Martin and Timballisto reunite themselves after many seasons of not seeing eachother. Gonff, meanwhile, prattles around the camp.
