Seddleton

**S****eddleton** was the first location settled by King Whitson on the coast of Ayman Lake. It was named after the rabbit Seddle.

## History

### *The Black Star of Kingston*

Seddleton started out as a group of wooden houses built on the coast of Ayman Lake, and eventually grew into a sizable town. The community prospered, but suffered from a lack of fuel for fires to aid industry and provide warmth. At the suggestion of Fleck Blackstar, an expedition set out from Seddleton across Ayman Lake to the Low Bleaks. After a number of forays, Seddleton's rabbits established a coal mine in this area. Regrettably, their activities alerted the Lords of Prey in the neighboring High Bleaks to their presence, and the raptors launched an assault on Seddleton and the rabbits' ships.

The Battle of Ayman Lake saw Seddleton badly damaged by fire and many of its inhabitants killed or carried off into the High Bleaks by the raptors. However, a blastpowder explosion set off by Fleck Blackstar caused the raptors to retreat, leaving the remaining rabbits to recover from the disaster as best as they could. Ultimately, this resulted in the abandonment of Seddleton and the splitting of the community into two groups. One of these established Kingston on the same side of the lake as the coal mine, while the other group set sail down the River Fay in search of a new home.

### *The Wreck and Rise of Whitson Mariner*

Seddleton was referenced by King Whitson Mariner as he recalled all that he and his subjects had been through in the past. Later, Massie Burnson privately recalled the events at Seddleton, and believed them to be the cause of Prince Lander's nightmares.

### *Ember Rising*

Seddleton was mentioned by the Tunneler as he spoke of the origins of the Seventh District.

Warken

**Picket Longtreader**: Thank you, Lieutenant.

—*Ember's End*, pg. 36

**L****ieutenant Warken** was a male rabbit and officer of the Cause.

## Biography

### *Ember's End*

Warken rushed up to greet Picket Longtreader upon his arrival at the old palace, and informed him that Princess Emma Joveson's council is in session. He politely objected to Picket's bringing Weezie into the meeting, and Weezie understood his desire to follow protocol and raised no objections. Warken later intruded on the council meeting, and upon being acknowledged informed Emma of new arrivals from Halfwind Citadel. This proved to be a group led by Wilfred Longtreader, who brought dire news of an imminent attack planned by the Terralain army.

Warken was among the rabbits who assisted Emma and the Fowlers as they left for the Terralain camp using glider packs. During the Siege of First Warren, he came running to Emma to report that the city wall had been breached in the east by another army of wolves. Helmer instructed him to send the signal for the Blackhawk Option, though Picket was forced to intervene when the signal officer refused to heed the order. Later, Helmer called upon Warken and questioned whether a flare set aside to signal a particular strategy was intact.
River Flint

The River Flint on a map of Natalia.

The **R****iver Flint** is a river that runs down from the High Bleaks and west across Natalia into Lake Merle. It is named for Flint, the father of all rabbits.

## History

### *Ember Rising*

The Seventh District's plans to escape Akolan centered on traveling down the river, which flowed through underground caverns beneath the city. As Garten Longtreader carried her to Forbidden Island, Heather Longtreader caught glimpses of the River Flint below her.

### *Ember's End*

As part of the Siege of First Warren, a fleet of ships carrying wolves from forts in the Waste sailed down the River Flint and into First Warren. The destruction of First Warren's dam allowed them to sail directly into the city to engage the defenders; however, they were followed and set upon by the Seventh District Fleet.
Stone Book of Fay

The **S****tone Book of Fay**, also known as the **Lost Book**, is an artifact that belonged to Fay.

## History

### Origin

Exactly how the book came into being or into Fay's possession is unknown. It eventually came into the hands of King Whitson Mariner, being given to him by King Gerard along with the Stone Sword of Flint.

### *The Wreck and Rise of Whitson Mariner*

The book was aboard the *Burnley* as it sailed to a new home. After the Grimbles' betrayal, King Whitson Mariner laments the loss of the book as well as the Stone Sword of Flint. However, the trunk carrying the book and the sword washes up on shore, and is found by Mother Saramack and returned to King Whitson.

Later, Queen Lillie quotes a passage from the book.

### *Prince Lander and the Dragon War*

Queen Lillie tells Prince Lander that some parts of Fay's book warn of a cost for carrying the starsword. After Whitson began to have nightmares after holding the sword, Queen Lillie joined some of the best scholars in studying Fay's book. They do not know much, however, and more searching is needed. It was very important that Fay's book be protected from the dragons, as they would twist the rabbits' gifts and bend what Fay intended.

### Later years

However, by the time of Morbin Blackhawk's reign over First Warren, the fate of the book was unknown, leading to it becoming known as the "Lost Book".

## Trivia

* Smith says he may consider writing a prequel based on Flint and Fay's adventures explaining how exactly Fay got the book, although he asserts that all one needs to know about it in order to enjoy *The Green Ember* series is in the books he's already written.

## Biography

### *Prince Lander & the Dragon War*

In his childhood, Lemual amused himself on at least one occasion by practicing his stone-throwing skills by aiming at pots that Tommie had obligingly placed on top of his head. The two bucks apparently enjoyed the sport, but not find Queen Lillie sympathetic to their pastime. Years later, Lemual would bring the incident to his brother Lander's mind following his stunning victory over Haldorn in the Drekkers' sport of fling-a-ding. The pair shared a laugh over the memory, and subsequently referenced it as opposed to telling their mother the truth about Lem's most recent brush with danger.

### Mentioned

*Prince Lander & the Dragon War*

Captain **S****alno** was a captain of the Grimble faction during the time of the Dragon War.

## Biography

### *Prince Lander & the Dragon War*

Captain Salno was, in spite of his allegiances, apparently an older buck that Whitson Mariner regarded with some respect. After Lander's rescue of a group of younglings from Grimble Island, including Hollie Grimble, Whitson hoped that the Grimbles might repent of their treason out of fear at the dragon's anger if nothing else. His hope included the possibility that someone like Salno might reason with Lord Grimble, but Lander could not share his father's optimism.
Timmons

**M****aster Timmons** was a buck who was a slave in Akolan and a member of the Seventh District.

## Biography

### *Ember Falls*

Shambler

**S****hambler** is a presumed parent of an unknown species, along with their spouse, Gan.

## Biography

### *The Black Star of Kingston*

Shambler is mentioned by King Whitson Mariner, when he sternly tells his son, Lander, that rabbits are not of Gan and Shambler but of Flint and Fay. This statement possibly alludes to the fact that Gan and Shambler were somewhat undesirable characters, whatever their species may have been.

Seven Mounds

Heather, Picket, and Smalden Joveson escape the Seven Mounds, as illustrated by Zach Franzen in *The Green Ember*.

## General information

### Events

Redeye Garlackson's attack on Nick Hollow

### Appears

*The Green Ember*

**S****even Mounds** is a location near Nick Hollow in northern Natalia. It consists of an underground labyrinth, visible from the outside as a series of natural-looking hills, hence its name.

## History

### *The Green Ember*

The Seven Mounds are first mentioned when Heather and Picket are being pursued by Redeye Garlackson and his wolves. Heather commands Picket to flee to the Third Mound. It is covered with brush to disguise the small, cave-like opening. Inside is cold and damp, with a high ceiling and is said to be able to hold about five or six more rabbits.

Further inside the Mound is a narrow rocky passage that leads to a wider room. Inside are assortments of rubble including crumbling tapestries, neglected cups on the floor, and noted "drawings" on the walls. Picket also is seen hearing voices, yet indistinct. Smalls is somewhat familiar with the passageways in the Mounds, leading Picket through the labyrinths. Picket recognizes the blocked-up entrance of the Fifth Mound, and mentions that there is a stream running through the First Mound that runs into a brook past the Seventh Mound. A downward spiraling tunnel in the Seventh Mound leads to an underground river with a small pebbly shore. Picket uses an anchor to burst through the weakened wall of the Mound and escapes with Heather and an unconscious Smalls in a riverboat.

Seven Mounds is mentioned several times later in the book. Emma comments that Halfwind Citadel is similar; an old-fashioned warren.
Tower Wars

**T****ower Wars** is a game invented by Whittle Longtreader for his children to play.

## Gameplay

Tower Wars requires at least two teams of players. Both teams work together to build a tower out of small wooden blocks, and when each team is finished building their tower, they take turns throwing a small ball at the opposing team's tower to see which tower can withstand the battery the longest. The team whose tower lasts the longest is the winner.

## Information

### *Ember's End*

While unconscious in the Tomb of Lander's Dragons, Heather Longtreader dreamed of a scene from her childhood in Nick Hollow in which she and Picket were building a tower against their father Whittle and younger brother Jacks. While Heather and Picket built, they both seemed to be aware of how soon their lives were going to change. They finished their tower, as did Whittle and Jacks. Just as Heather's dream began to fade, Jacks started to pull blocks from the base of his and his father's tower, prompting Whittle to panic and scold him. Heather was then jolted awake.

## Trivia

* S. D. Smith has provided instructions for how to set up a real-life game of Tower Wars on his blog.

Black Stripe

## Undetermined

****B**lack Stripe** was a wolf who was among the forces taken over by Solus after the death of Redeye Garlackson. His true name is unknown, with the nickname "Black Stripe" being applied to him by Jo Shanks.

## Biography

### *The First Fowler*

Black Stripe and several of his compatriots come across Jo Shanks after he was tied up as part of a ruse by his fellow rabbits. Though Black Stripe knows Solus would reward them for turning over the captive, he also likes the idea of killing and eating Jo. When Jo claims he has been left there by several other rabbits as a traitor, Black Stripe demands to know where they have gone. Black Stripe eventually decides to eat Jo, trying to stay in command of the other wolves. Jo tells Black Stripe that if he promises to spare Jo and take him to Solus instead of eating him, Jo will tell Black Stripe where the others in his company went. Black Stripe demands again to know, and Jo insists that he must be untied first. Black Stripe unties Jo, then presses his spear against Jo's neck. Jo gasps out which way the other rabbits have gone.

Black Stripe sends several of his wolves in the direction Jo indicates, but remains behind with a handful. One of them, an archer named Bant, recognizes Jo as a hero of the Battle for Cloud Mountain. Sensing that the rabbit has been lying to them, Black Stripe prepares to attack, only for Jo's friends to spring their trap. Jo is hauled to safety, and manages to shoot both Black Stripe and Bant in the process.
West Wood

West Wood on a map of Natalia

**W****est Wood** is a large area of woodlands in northern Natalia, located to the west of Nick Hollow and to the northwest of the Cloud Mountain and the Great Wood.

Unlike East Wood, it had not suffered visibly from the depredations of Morbin Blackhawk's forces prior to Redeye Garlackson's attack on the Longtreader family.

## History

### *The Green Ember*

West Wood is briefly mentioned as Heather looked into the darkness of East Wood and thought on how their father had not prohibited from entering West Wood, although he had explicitly forbidden them to enter East Wood.

Later on, Heather and Picket are sent by their mother and father to Gladeberry in West Wood, where they were to pick blackberries. As they traipsed along their way towards Gladeberry, they suddenly hear a scream from Mr. Elric's farm, and they start to run back towards their elm tree home, only to stop at the eaves of West Wood and gape at horror at their beloved home burning to the ground, with a group of wolves surrounding it.

## Description

Although West Wood was not described in as much detail as East Wood was, it is implied that it appeared as a normal forest, as it is mentioned that Heather and Picket were allowed to enter it, which was in contrast to their father's forbidding their entering its eastern counterpart.

Tarn

**T****arn** was a buck who chose to serve Captain Grimble rather than King Whitson Mariner. He took part in the Grimbles' plan to abandon King Whitson Mariner and his supporters to an island of dragons.

## Biography

### *The Wreck and Rise of Whitson Mariner*

When Queen Lillie is kidnapped and taken to an island of dragons, Tarn is one of the bucks assigned to stay to guard the queen. Lillie broke out of her prison when she spotted her son, Lander, knocking Tarn to the ground as she did so.

As Tarn rose, he was confronted by Lillie, Galt, Massie Burnson, and Lander, who proceeded to interrogate him. At first Tarn refused, but after receiving a fist to the face from Massie, he relented. Just then, he noticed a dead dragon in the dragons' sacred pool and began to panic. As dragons emerged from the nearby forest, Lillie and company fled the scene. Tarn, left behind, was killed by the furious dragons.

## Personality and traits

Even when confronted, Tarn was rough, coarse, and rude, taking pleasure in mocking his adversaries. However, when seriously concerned for his life, he broke down and became a slave to panic and irrationality.

Ricker

****R**icker** is a lieutenant from Chelmsford Citadel who acquainted himself with Jo Shanks, prior to both of their departure of Cloud Mountain.

## Biography

### *The First Fowler*

In the Savory Den, Jo Shanks, after helping the elderly buck Caldwell to his seat and with his food, is greeted by Ricker, who stood with his fellow Chelmsford bucks, waiting in line for food. The two exchange good-natured banter and introduce themselves to each other, before Ricker is notified that he and his bucks must leave on a dangerous mission which he requested to be assigned to.

Later, Shanks encounters Ricker while making his way back up Cloud Mountain with Captain Frye, while Ricker and a party of bucks are making their way towards Decker's Landing. Seeing that Ricker was dressed for stealth and armed, Jo wished him well, with Ricker returning the sentiment.

## Personality and traits

Ricker, by all appearances, was a friendly, good-natured buck with courage and a strong sense of duty (as evidenced by his knowingly requesting assignment to a hazardous mission). He is described as being short.

Starseek

**Heather Joveson**: But Uncle Picket made it magic.

—To Hanna Joveson, *Ember's End*, pg. 410 |  | ”

**S****tarseek** is a game Heather Longtreader invented while living with her family in Nick Hollow.

## Gameplay

The game is simple, requiring only a "star" made up of three sticks that are tied together with a red ribbon, making six points, which is called a starstick. The red ribbon is left long to flap in the breeze.  The game begins when one player throws the star as hard as he or she can. The players wait for the star to hit the ground and then race to be the first to grab it. Whoever successfully captures the star first is the winner.

Starseek is usually played in three rounds per game, in which case the winner is the person who grabs the "star" first two times or more.

## Information

### *The Green Ember*

Heather and Picket played Starseek often before Redeye Garlackson and his wolves attacked their home.

### *Ember Rising*

Picket Longtreader unconsciously made a starstick with some sticks in his hand and Weezie's blue ribbon. He threw it, resolving to find it once he had found Heather.

### *Ember's End*

In the time of the Mending, Heather Joveson and Picket Longtreader taught the game to their respective children, Hanna and Jo, after Hanna found the starstick Picket had left.

## Trivia

* Starseek is featured in an official printable maze coloring sheet.

Vulm

**C****aptain Vulm** was an officer of the Terralain army.

## Biography

### *Ember Rising*

Captain Vulm led a force of soldiers brought to Jupiter's Crossing by Tameth Seer to apprehend Picket Longtreader. Vulm and his fellows believed that Picket has committed murder by killing their former king, Bleston, after he betrayed the Cause to Morbin Blackhawk.

Lord Captain Helmer attempted to reason with Tameth and then the soldiers, but when he called Tameth's character into question Vulm responded sternly. After a brief confrontation, which the forces under Helmer won with help from newly arrived reinforcements, Helmer offered him a truce in which the Terralains would be allowed to leave with their lives and weapons. Though Vulm could not make the decision for the full Terralain army, he agreds that he and his rabbits would not fight with those fleeing Cloud Mountain.

### *Ember's End*

Vulm was mentioned by Tameth Seer and Naylen, with Tameth Seer blaming the captain's recent death on assassins sent by Emma Joveson. Helmer, fully aware that they had no part in Vulm's death, later expressed eagerness to meet with Vulm's killers to Terralain captain Granger. Naylen later determined that Vulm's killers were sent by Tameth Seer after the same assassins are sent to kill Kylen.

## Physical appearance

Like most Terralain soldiers, Captain Vulm was described as being a large, muscular rabbit.

## Personality and traits

Though he opposed the rule of King Jupiter's line, Vulm was not above civility with the family's allies. He was known to be an honorable warrior who believed in his cause and led his troops well. He seems to have been a beloved figure within the Terralain army, as the soldiers were greatly angered by his death and eager to punish those responsible.

Shel

**S****hel** was a buck and soldier in the forces of King Whitson Mariner. Just prior to the Battle of Ayman Lake, Shel was among the soldiers stationed across Ayman Lake from Seddleton for a night guard task.

Whether or not he survived the ensuing battle is unknown.
The Teller

**T****he Teller** is a male rabbit and member of the Cause in First Warren.

## History

### *Ember Rising*

Little is known of the Teller's history, not even his real name, except that he was living in First Warren at least prior to the Attack on Cloud Mountain.

Some time after the attack, he met the Herald, and from him received a copy of Heather Longtreader's story. The Teller carried on the work of the Herald, spreading word of Picket Longtreader's heroic exploits. The myth of Picket Packslayer evolved from these accounts, despite the Teller's efforts to tell the tale as it was set down.

The Teller later met the subject of his tales after Picket and Helmer infiltrated First Warren, all three meeting up in a cave with several other rabbits. Wearing a hooded cloak, the Teller's identity was at first concealed, but he showed amusement at Helmer's comments against Winslow Joveson's rule. He subsequently revealed himself to the two captains, and was then informed of their names and brought up to speed with happenings outside the city.

The three subsequently parted ways, the Teller having a renewed sense of purpose; whether he took any part in the Battle for First Warren is unknown.

## Physical appearance

The Teller is a shaggy, aged gray rabbit, with a physique suggesting he is at least somewhat capable in combat.

## Personality and traits

Unlike those rabbits he was first seen in company with, the Teller is a bold opponent of Morbin Blackhawk and those who serve him, refusing to wear a preymark. He expressed amusement at Helmer's defiance of Winslow, and at his disparaging comments regarding the Teller's comments. Though he recognizes the song Picket Packslayer as being embellished, he defends it as a source of hope and inspiration for the beaten rabbits of First Warren.

He seems to be solitary in his opposition to the Lords of Prey, as there is no indication that he was in any way affiliated with the Citadel of Dreams.
Tane-side Chippers

The **T****ane-side Chippers** were a sports team of rabbits among the Drekkers.

## History

### *Prince Lander & the Dragon War*

The Tane-side Chippers were playing a match against the Gates Hale Raiders when Lander and Lemual Whitson arrived at the Drekkers' section of Lener's Crossroads to see Chief Heckle. Biggting Pusher informed the princes of this fact, noting that his comrade Doove supported Gates Hale due to his cousin being part of the team. Biggting also expressed his own support for the Chippers, whom he confidently asserted would be victorious. Despite this, he was unable to tell Lander which team was ahead when they arrived at the arena.

## Book information

### Appears

*Prince Lander & the Dragon War*

The **s****calebreakers** were an elite combat unit formed on the orders of Lander Whitson immediately prior to the Battle of Dragon Mountain.

## History

### *Prince Lander & the Dragon War*

Having made the decision to assault Dragon Mountain, Lander formulated a plan of attack with his lords and officers. As part of the strategy, they combed the soldiers of Lener's Crossroads and the newly arrived rabbits of Black Star Company to select elite fighters to comprise the first wave of attack. King Lander himself would lead the group, wielding the Stone Sword of Flint, and seek to break the dragons' defenses. Several bucks-Captains Gavin of Kingston, Massie Burnson, and Walters, along with the young soldier Riley Nocks-insisted on joining the scalebreakers contrary to Lander's orders.

Knowing full well that they were all likely to perish in this endeavor, the scalebreakers attacked Dragon Mountain. With the advantage of surprise, they were able to fight their way almost halfway up the mountain before the dragons were able to organize a counterattack. Unfortunately, the enemy force soon decimated the brave attackers, with many soon falling before their onslaught. It was only the timely arrival of reinforcements-Chief Heckle and his Drekkers and other fighters led by Lord Galvet-that prevented the complete slaughter of the scalebreakers. Fortunately, at least some of the scalebreakers lived to see the eventual end of the battle and the rabbit victory in the Dragon War.
Royal Warrenguard

The **R****oyal Warrenguard** was an elite unit of the Resistance army, comprising elite soldiers from the various secret citadels.

## History

### *Ember's End*

The Warrenguard was formed in the time between the Battle for First Warren and the Siege of First Warren, the last major engagements of the War for All Natalia. Split into two divisions, it is commanded by Helmer and Frye, though prior to the siege Helmer passes command of his division to Picket Longtreader. When the army of Farlock arrives, Frye's division charges out to engage the attacking force, suffering heavy casualties including Frye himself. However, the prompt actions of Picket and the Terralain army turn the tide against the enemy wolves. Wilfred Longtreader then assumed command of the remainder of the Warrenguard, and led them to engage a second wolf army while Helmer and Picket returned to the old palace. After battling the wolf forces, the remnants of the Warrenguard retreat, and presumably continue to fight until the conclusion of the battle.

## Members

## Physical appearance

Valter is a very muscular rabbit who is nearly twice as tall as Picket Longtreader.

After the war, Ray continues to work as a carter, and passes Picket as they re crossing New Bridge at the same time. By this point Ray has, to Picket's mild annoyance, gotten into the habit of addressing the honored veteran-turned-farmer as "my lord".

## Trivia

* The name "Ray" is of German origin, meaning "counselor" or "protector"; it is often a shortened version of "Raymond", which has the same meaning.

Falcowitson

**Jo Shanks**: May he meet the same end...

—*Ember's End*, p. 292 |  | ”

**F****alcowitson** was a falcon and, as his name implies, the son of Falcowit, whom he succeeded as a member of the Six.

## Biography

### *Ember's End*

Having been anointed a member of the Six by the Preylord priestess in Grey Grove, Falcowitson led the first wave of Preylords in the Siege of First Warren. His forces caused much damage to the defenses of the Cause, but they quickly settled on eliminating Falcowitson as a means of scattering his command. They thus employed the Blackhawk Option against him, and Falcowitson met the same end as his father.

## Physical appearance

Falcowitson was a white-feathered falcon, apparently resembling his father so closely as to remove all doubt of their kinship.
Walter Good

## Walter

**K****ing Walter Good** was the king of the Thirty Warrens and the father of King Jupiter and Bleston.

## Biography

### Early life

Walter began the kingdom of the Thirty Warrens, but there were only twelve warrens when he became king. He passed over his eldest son, Bleston, to name his youngest son, Jupiter, as the heir by bestowing on him the Green Ember from the Crown of Flames. Bleston, in fury and unwilling to make peace, ultimately left First Warren with a group of followers. Walter was killed by raiding hawks, at which point the kingdom was passed on to Jupiter.

### *The Green Ember*

Walter is mentioned by both Whittle Longtreader and Lord Rake as they recount *The Rise and Fall of King Jupiter the Great* to Heather and Picket.

### *Ember Falls*

Walter is mentioned by Heather and Picket in conversation, and by Bleston himself after his return to Natalia proper. Heather later pleads with Bleston to honor the memory of both his father and Jupiter by supporting Smalls' cause. When Bleston reveals his pact with Morbin Blackhawk, Heather notes that he has once again defied the will of his father.

### *Ember Rising*

Emma Joveson, Walter's granddaughter through Jupiter, recalls her forebearer's actions as she makes her way to a secret meeting with Kylen, Bleston's oldest son.

## Personality and traits

In contrast to his wicked grandfather, King Walter Good was known to have been a ruler of benevolence and exceptional leadership.

### Bleston

Bleston was the oldest of Walter's three known sons, and believed himself the rightful heir to his father's throne. However, in character he resembled Walter's own cruel father more than Walter himself. Refusing to allow the kingdom he had rebuilt to fall into decay once again, Walter passed over him and his second son to make Jupiter the crown prince. In bitterness, Bleston made plans for rebellion even while Walter still lived, though he ultimately left First Warren rather than carrying them out.

### Jupiter

Jupiter was Walter's third son, and proved to be more like his father than his oldest brother Bleston. As such, Walter chose him to succeed him as king, and made this known by the Bestowal of the Green Ember upon his young son. Years later, after building his father's small kingdom into a Great Alliance of more than one hundred warrens, Jupiter would express great happiness in the fact that he had proved worthy of his father's choice.

## Trivia

* The name "Walter" is of English and Germanic origin and means "ruler of the army."
	+ Additionally, the surname "Good" is of English origin and refers to a kindly person.

## Book information

### Appears

*Prince Lander & the Dragon War*

**Lemual Whitson**: I don't--

**Lander**: I know Lem, I know. But you know the Third Scouts unit was formed for that purpose. Bucks and does, all around your age, able to go out in the wilderness and keep going. You may have to.

—*Prince Lander & the Dragon War*, p. 99 |  | ”

The **T****hird Scouts** were a group of young rabbits, bucks and does alike, formed towards the end of the Dragon War.

## History

### *Prince Lander & the Dragon War*

The Third Scouts were created by Whitson Mariner as a last resort, a precaution against the feared destruction of the rabbit community at Lener's Crossroads. Fearing that his efforts to reconcile with the Grimble faction and reestablish contact with the rabbits of Kingston and Terralain would prove fruitless, the king sought to prepare for the worst. To that end, he selected bucks and does who were all young but of age, and capable of making their way into the wilds and continuing onwards. To lead the group, he chose his second son, Lemual.

Lemual reluctantly accepted the charge to lead the Third Scouts, though he wished to remain with the community at Lener's Crossroads until the bitter end, if bitter it had to be. King Whitson later dispatched the Third Scouts after the Grimbles launched an attack on Lener's Crossroads and made no attempt to recall them after the battle was won. However, the group ran into Black Star Company marching to Lener's Crossroads from Kingston. Determined to bring these reinforcements to the camp, Lemual led them to *Steadfast* while sending the Third Scouts to continue their mission under the leadership of Lieutenant Forsythe.

Later, facing a seemingly inevitable defeat in the Battle of Dragon Mountain, Lander thought that the Third Scouts might remember his last stand. Fortunately, his astounding victory over Namoz Dragonking ensured the survival of the rabbits.

## Notes

* The designation of "Third" Scouts seems to imply the existence of a first and second group, but the existence and roles of these units is unknown.

## Official bio

"I’m Zach Franzen.

In seventh grade a kid behind me in music class reached into a ziplock bag of pencil bits and threw some pieces at my head. I whipped around and threw my pen at him. It turned once in the air and stuck in his forehead. True story. An onlooker, desiring to confirm what he witnessed, repeated twice, “It stuck in his head.” These days I seek to use the pen, pencil, or brush to create images. Hopefully, these images might have force enough to stick in the heads of those who see them.

I live in Greenville, SC with my wife in a house with a lawn that I try to cut regularly so as not to embarrass the neighbors. I love my wife, my job, and I really really love that story about the pen."

River Fay

The River Fay on a map of eastern Natalia.

The **R****iver Fay** is a river that flows west out of Ayman Lake and around Grimble Island before feeding into Lake Merle.

## History

### *The Wreck and Rise of Whitson Mariner*

Whitson Mariner and his community traveled down the River Fay on the three ships *Natalia*, *Steadfast*, and *Burnley*, stopping at Halfway Harbor over the course of a winter. During this time, *Burnley* scouted the river under Captain Grimble's command, at which point he made a treacherous alliance with the Dragons. When the full fleet set out once again, *Burnely* led *Natalia* onto a rock that left it irreparably damaged and sinking. In token of this betrayal, Whitson dubbed the ship *Desolation* as it sailed away to a rendezvous with the Dragons.

Fortunately, many rabbits and some supplies were rescued from the sinking ship, and made their way onto an island. *Steadfast* soon arrived, and Whitson led a skeleton crew aboard it to intercept *Desolation*. A battle soon occurred between the two vessels on the river, with Whitson's forces proving victorious.

The Mending

**T****he Mending** is a long-prophesied event among rabbits, having been spoken of as far back as their time in Blue Moss Hills.

## History

### *The Wreck and Rise of Whitson Mariner*

One of the earliest known references—if not the earliest—to the Mending was contained in the Stone Book of Fay. Fay's words were in reference to her husband Flint's Stone Sword, noting that "When the Mending [came], it [would] be unmendable." This prophecy was later recounted after the Stone Sword was recovered—whole and unbroken—following the betrayal of *Desolation*.

### *Prince Lander and the Dragon War*

The prophecy about Flint's sword was mentioned, with Lander wondering if what it actually meant was that the sword needed to break to make the Mending possible. When explaining his plans for First Warren to Massie Burnson, Lander told him that they would "always [aim] at the mending". Fleck Blackstar expressed hope to Galt that they would eventually find the Mending.

### *The Green Ember*

Mrs. Weaver tells Heather that the inhabitants of Cloud Mountain are busy mending, showing why they must fight. The Mended Wood is mentioned many times, with the rabbits all longing for a place where there would be no more hurt and strife.

### *Ember Falls*

The Mending and the Mended Wood are mentioned on multiple occasions, as the rabbits attempt to keep up hope and remind themselves what they are fighting for. The Mending is the greatest hope of the rabbits, where they will be free and glad again, and there will be no more hurt, death, betrayal, or strife.

### *Ember Rising*/*The Archer's Cup*

Among the signs of rabbitkind's continued belief in the Mending was the use of the code phrase "a friend of the Mending" as a means of entering Harbone Citadel. This code had fallen out of usage by the time of Helmer and Picket's arrival on their way to First Warren. The rabbits of Natalia thought of the Mending often as a source of hope and a reminder of what they were fighting for. Emma mentions many times how they must fight for the Mending, putting it before her throne.

### *Ember's End*

**Heather Joveson**: May it be so in this Mended Wood.

—*Ember's End*, pgs. 406-407 |  | ”

The Mending was mentioned several times as the rabbits of Natalia prepared for and fought the Siege of First Warren, with the generally held belief that the outcome of the Siege would either be the Mending or their utter defeat at the talons of Morbin Blackhawk.

Subsequent to Smalden Joveson's slaying of Morbin Blackhawk (which resulted in the breaking of the Stone Sword of Flint in fulfillment of Fay's prophecy), The Mending becomes a reality, as every foe that ever stood against rabbitkind had been brought to an end. The rediscovery of Firstflower perpetuates every life and heals every wound, so that The Mending would last forever.
