Prologue
"Who are you?" asked a large weasel, blocking the gates into Darksun Fortress. "I am called Nightstars," replied a dark badger, skulking in the shadows. "You may not be admitted!" said the weasel. "My name is Zentruff, Captain to Queen Sage the Mighty. You must have permission from Queen Sage to be allowed onto Darksun turf." Nightstars snorted, "Fogbreath! I have Gulish, whom I was sent for! You must let me in!" Grumbling, Zentruff let Nightstars into the grounds. Nightstars could barely hide a sly smile, for she was a spy from Redwall Abbey! Now she could tell the Redwallers all the information they needed! Queen Sage really shouldn't appoint stupid guards, Nightstars thought. But no matter. Now that she was in, she could spy all she wanted! As she headed into the darkening grounds, she heard Zentruff something. Nightstars turned around. The weasel guard was scampering away, calling "Hhujuk! Hhujuk!" Nightstars chuckled to herself. Zentruff had left his spear. Throwing it into a pile under the bushes, she called, "Tis Nightmmmmmmmoooooooooooooonnnnnnnn!" A tiny head peeked out. "Thanks, Nightmoon." said a voice. "Good luck."

Chapter One
A mousewife busied herself tending the laundry, but really, she went to talk to the squirrel chief. "Lady Rose, are you sure it was the right choice to send Nightmoon into Darksun? If Sage found her, it could be awful!" Lady Rose, a pretty yet fierce young squirrel scowled at the mousewife. "Still thinking only of your self, Carina? Nightmoon is ful-filling her duties as a spy for the RADP!" Carina, dipping a cloak into water, scowled back. "Remind me again what the Radp is supposed to be doing, other than making more laundry for a poor mousewife?" Lady Rose chuckled. "Only told you a thousand times, Carina. Redwall Abbey Defense Program helps train fighters to rebel against Darksun and it's rulers, whoever they may be. That fort rightfully belongs to us!" Lady Rose's smile had left her face, and was replaced by a furious frown. "We'll fight them. That's why Nightmoon's in Darksun. To discover their plots!" Carina let out a hiss. "Oh, is that it?" Lady Rose exploded. "All!? THERE IS A DANGEROUS WILDCAT PREPARING TO COME AND KILL US, BURN REDWALL, AND BEAT OUR CHILDREN! SHE WILL TAKE OVER OUR ABBEY AND ALL YOU CAN THINK OF IS LAUNDRY?! HOW SELFISH ARE YOU, CARINA WILDWEED?????????" Grunting, Carina neatly folded the cloak into a basket. "If Sage's gonna attack, we should at least have fresh laundry. Now go and help Maryheart in the kitchen." Seeing the young squirrel open her mouth, Carina Wildweed snapped, "That's an order from your elder, Lady Rose Squirrelchief!"
