Summary
A Redwall Winter's Tale opens up on the last day of autumn. At Redwall, dibbuns are playing outside when they notice a group of travelling performers approaching the Abbey.

Everyone enters and a show is put on by the performers. Finally, when it is time for bed, the dibbun mole Bungo is told the story of the Snow Badger, a mythical creature who makes the snow fall.

Later that night, Bungo sees the Snow Badger and is able to talk to him! When the little mole wakes up, he finds a pouch around his neck. It contains a small crystal drop and a note is written on the inside of the pouch, actually a scrap of parchment. It reads...

Die written a last cry

There find dearer of

Off thus poor threat

It formed her love

But what does it mean? The Redwallers are going to try to figure that out...
