Tea lilly and matt walked the long corridoor under the abbey.Where did it lead? She finally stopped at a room filled with books, like the library. The room seemed untouched, it seemed almost as if time stopped in the solitary crisp air of this chamber. It did look like a library exept for the fact that all the manuscripts, papers,scrolls,and books were left neatly in place, as if they had been waiting for a long time to be opened once again. Matt stared around in awe at the towering shelves. Tea lilly couldn't help but ask aloud,"Matt, what is all this?" He wandered to a shelf that looked especially old."I don't know tea lilly...I didn't even know there was this empty space under the abbey. I've never even heard of someone speak of it. No recorder, or abbot has ever mentioned something even close to this...It all looks so old!" Tea lilly gently stroked the binding of some thin papers that made up a scant book.A slight smell of winter flowers tickled her nose.What was this? She took the bound papers off the shelf and a wave of dust rose out.She coughed and wiped a sheen layer of dust off the title."Rose of noonvale, Matt, who is rose of noonvale?" Well open those pages, and we're sure to find out....
"My name is rose of noonvale,
the tribe of urran voh,
my only brother is called brome,
and martins name I know,
were here so we can help them,
So please friend tell to me,
what can we do to aid these two,
and try to set them free!"
At this time tea lilly paused well who are these other two mice? Matt had a distant look in his eye.They're talking about martin the warrior, I just know it! But what these ballad lines give away is not mentioned in martins history at all. I wonder what kind of trouble they're in...
"the sentry quickly sung out a ballad, and I hugged grumm with happiness!we had found brome! My brother brome! a guard approached and our unknown messenger had to leave.
"a vermin guard approaches,
quick get yourselves from site,
i'll try to get back to you
this time tomorrow night."
"at last we could rescue brome and this mouse called martin! Now I must go. Grumm and I have alot of planning to do."
Matt and tea lilly didn't know what to think. Who wrote all this? it couldn't have been redwallers....
