Well, I originally came up with this idea right after Doomwyte was released, so I figured I'd have it sometime after the events of that story. Now that the Sable Quean is out, I guess it'll be after that, but the Sable Quean doesn't Gonfelin mice (I think. I haven't read it yet.) I just figured that since in Doomwyte such a large tribe of mice moved to Redwall that it would probably show up in later stories.
