[edit] History
Redwall Abbey was built following the destruction and flooding of Kotir, an ageless castle in Mossflower Woods ruled by Tsarmina Greeneyes.
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.
While it is ordained to be a peaceful location, many times a warrior 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.
