Dari rose from his bed, he always tried to rise with the Redwallers, but that was hard for him, being a strictly nocturnal beast. And there was the added problem of sleeping flat. Woodlanders don't know all their problems with sleeping! Flat beds, waking when it's light out, I could go on. He had many a conversation with himself in his head. He busied around the bed, making it and fluffing the pillow. Satisfied that the bed was good, he headed downstairs, intent on reaching the kitchens. Stairs were another problem, so he usually flew down them, but he was not a morning animal, for obvious reasons, and had trouble flying early on. He headed into the kitchens, "Mornin' Friar, got any food?" He said this quite slow, and it was accompanied with a yawn.

"No Friar or food Dari! Only an old Abbot!"
Feralius was an early riser. Cats were naturally nocturnal but being the Abbot that wasn't an option. So liked to rise early. So he had came down to cook a small meal for himself. Honeycakes. Taking one from the oven , he raised it to his mouth and took a nibble. "Care to try one?" he extended a paw to the bat.
"So Dari, how's your little daughter? Haven't seen much of her latley!"

"Thanks." Dari grabbed two, "She went wit' Kal'a on a li'il jerney." He said with his mouth full. He swallowed, "'Scuse me. They went back across the seas to Kalia's and my ole home. Kalia insisted that Vespar see it."

"I say chaps those smell bally well good those do wot?" standing In the doorway was the young glutton, Runtool. Swiping a hot honeycake from the freshly baked batch, Instantly regretting his foolish move as he threw the tasty treat from paw to paw "owowowowow hot owwwwww bally flaming honey cakes, tasty assassins wot!" cramming the honeycake into his mouth he chose the six largest cakes and then seated himself on the tabletop greeting he greeted the wildcat and bat duo "I say chaps it's a. Corker of a day wot? We should have a bally picnic!".

Ah yes Seafaring! I did it all the time in my youth. Captained a boat of two otters, a hare, a hedgehog, a mouse and a watervole! Hard task keeping that lot fed! Hohoho! Ah but all that's story's for cold winter mornings in Cavern Hole! It's good that young Vespar see where her parents came from, yes indeed!" he was about to make another remark to Dari when a loud voice rang out through the kitchens.
Feralius looked to Dari. And said in a tone so only he could hear. "Hide your teacakes! Runtools about!"
He turned to face Redwall's resident hare."Good morning Runtool how are you? I see you like my honeycakes? Take a few.." he paused with a look of astonishment as Runtool took more than he should have, "...I didn't mean six. Oh well, all that can be expected of a hare I suppose." he sat down and listened to the thoughts of the lapine then rose to the window, "Hmm a picnic. Good idea I say! Nice day for it, dibbuns would like it. Yes I think we shall have a picnic later on!"

Munching happily on a honeycake,Runtool absentmindedly stole the abbots honeycake from under his nose "I say I was thinking about the bally dibbuns when I said that wot!" unfortunatly Runtool was a bad liar. Kicking his powerful footpaws back and forth, Runtool hopped off the table took a bowl of oatmeal with honey and strawberrys from a passing mole. Smacking his lips, Runtool said"I'm bally parched,I wonder when the blinking cellarhog will rise off his lazy back wot?" and with that he was off on a conquest to find tasty treats.

"Goodbye, abbot." Dari rose and followed the hare, he was thirsty as well. If the cellerhog wasn't awake yet, well, he would wake to find a fresh barrel of october ale or blackberry cordial tapped and no trace of the bat, "Hey Runtool, wait for me!"

Raena staggered into the kitchens. She looked around in confusion, then saw the Abbot. "Hello, Father Abbot. Where has everybeast gotten to?" She poked her head out of the kitchens and saw Dari and Runtool disappearing from sight. "Oh, blast it. No matter how hard I try they always wake up earlier that me!" Raena withdrew from the door and turned back to Abbot Feralius. She took a quick glance at the honeycakes and brightened. "Do you mind if I have a honeycake? I'm awfully partial to those." She smiled happily at the Abbot. "Maybe I'll be able to go to the orchards. Or the pond. If I'm lucky, then I might get to go into Mossflower today!" She thought for a moment. "Hmm. Perhaps if I coax him, then he'd let me."
