The Shocking Truth! (NRP)
(This log is supposed to have happened in the redwall gatehouse.)
Furgo is looking at some old records for amusement, at some points even chuckling.
Larex, Furgo's father, walks in. He says, "Furgo."
Furgo looks up, and asks, "Yes, father?"
Larex sits down across from Furgo, and says, "Your mother and I have decided it is time I tell you the... truth about you."
Furgo blinks, and says, "Truth?"
Larex sighs, and says, "Furgo, you are not the true son of your mother and myself."
Furgo asks, "I was adopted, then?"
LArex replies, sighing again, "Not exactly. You see, one Summer night we heard a commotion outside. I looked out the window, and saw two weasels fighting over something in a basket."
Furgo listens intently.
Larex continues, "I went to bed, and so did your mother. The next day, the weasels were gone, but the basket remained. It was wailing. In it we found you, and a note." He produces a piece of paper, a bit wet looking.
Furgo takes the paper, and reads it. "It says 'Please take care of Furgo, whoever finds him. He is one year old. I could not support him, and I only hope you can.'"
Larex says, "We cared for you ever since until last summer, when we sent you here. We never knew your mother, just that she must have been even poorer than we were."
Furgo puts the paper in his habit pocket, and walks off, starting to shake his head and mutter, holding his head in his paws.
