(Group - anyone can join) Redwall Abbey

[Delain Azara]

Damien helps lift up the little squirrel and sighs "so young and such heartache"

Mathias rubs his temples "As it has done to the Abbey, welcome dear friend"

[Kromas Ndorai]

Thank you.
Aphio hoped that the place hadn't changed too much in his absence- travelling was nice and all, but returning was so much nicer of an experience.

[Delain Azara]

"Constance, ask the mousemaidens to prepare a feast, for our friend Aphia has returned" Mathias says with a smile

Constance smiles "Alright" she walks past Aphio "welcome home dear"

[Kromas Ndorai]

"It is nice to see all of you again."
Aphio smiled as he looked back at Constance.

[Delain Azara]

Constance tried hard not to cry, she was happy to see Aphia home, for she had a terrible secret, which was that she had feelings for him.

[Kromas Ndorai]

Aphio left and headed for the gardens, as he had used to spend a lot of time there. Walking among the bushes and flowers, he kept an eye out for anyone that he had not seen before- there must certainly be some new residents since he had left.

[Delain Azara]

A young kitten was also in the garden, she was playing with a ball of yarn and giggling

[Kromas Ndorai]

Seeing the kitten, Aphio approached cautiously- she seemed unfamiliar..

"Urh... Hello there..."

[Delain Azara]

The fluffy calico looks at him "h..hewwo, you're Aphia r..right?" she says, purring as she circles his legs

[Kromas Ndorai]

"Yeah, that's me. Mind if I ask,who are you?"
Aphio felt rather strange, as no one had ever taken  him to not be a threat quite as quickly.

[Delain Azara]

"Ph..Phoebe, orphan, Constance looks after me" she purrs

[Kromas Ndorai]

"Ah, it is a pleasure to meet you, Pheobe"
Aphio plucked a flower from a nearby bush

[Delain Azara]

Phoebe purrs and smiles, gently batting the ball of yarn around, "Are those for miss Constance? She likes you, you know?"

[Kromas Ndorai]

"Wha-what? Really, she does?"
This was quite the suprise- he thought of her highly, but had never thought this would be the case.

[Delain Azara]

Phoebe purrs and giggles "mhm, she may look like a grump, but she has a big heart, and she has your photo."
Constance looks out the window and sighs
