Redwall Abbey was built following the destruction and flooding of Kotir, an ageless castle in Mossflower Woods ruled by Tsarmina Greeneyes. The survivors of Loamhedge Abbey came to Mossflower country, led by Abbess Germaine to start anew. The blueprints were designed by the first Abbess of Redwall, Germaine, a friend of Mossflower native Bella of Brockhall and survivor of the Loamhedge Abbey plague. Along with the woodlanders of Mossflower and other Loamhedge survivors, the Abbey was built out of red sandstone from a neighboring quarry, with the intentions for the building to be a place of peace for all. A tapestry was woven in the Great Hall dedicated to Martin the Warrior. While it is ordained to be a peaceful location, many times a warrior, or Champion, is called upon from the residents to combat a threat against this peace. The residents of Redwall name the Seasons every year after some large occurence. Young citizens of the Abbey are called Dibbuns.
The above is a brief summary of Redwall Abbey*, though is not necessarily sufficiently informative in and of itself. Therefore, I have placed links throughout the article to allow for easier access to significant details concerning many of the terms, locations, events and characters mentioned.
