The story is based on warrior4’s beautiful fanfiction “When Flower Meets Blade“, which I highly recommend! () (used for inspiration with permission).
Thank you very much to Laura Schiller for suggesting the beautiful song that kept my creativity and inspiration running through the long weeks of masking, recoloring of the dance scene and trying out these ghost effects! :D
PLOT:
Rose’s spirit comes to Redwall along with the rose from her grave. At first she is afraid the building is the completed Marshank fortress, but her worries are quickly soothed when she sees Martin on the tapestry. Martin comes in full armor (his ghost is bound to Redwall and his spiritual descendents of Abbey Warriors), ready to defend his Abbey and Rose wants to surprise him with a trick. When she finally reveals her face, Martin falls into her arms, sobbing and appologizing for not keeping Badrang and Luke’s sword away from Rose. He could not fave her and mourned the loss f his love for the rest of his life. Now realizing that they have both been dead for countless seasons, Rose reassures him that they do not have to worry about tyrants anymore. After so much time, both mice can finally enjoy their afterlife in peace. Reunited and together forever.
