Martin resisted every step of the way as he was dragged into Kotir and brought before a bedridden Verdauga. He wandered into the domain of Castle Kotir and the aging wildcat Lord Verdauga Greeneyes, where he was arrested by Greeneyes' soldiers for possessing a sword, a weapon the monarch had forbidden woodlanders in his territory from owning. Grieving, Martin journeyed south into Mossflower Woods, unable to return to Noonvale.
Taking back his father's sword, he stabbed the stoat in the heart. When Martin saw that Rose had been killed, he was overcome by a fierce rage and became unstoppable in his pursuit of Badrang's death. Rose tried to distract Badrang and save Grumm's life by jumping on the Tyrant and hitting him with her loaded sling, but he threw her against a wall, resulting in an instantaneously fatal concussion. When Badrang believed hope was lost, he dove for a tunnel Grumm had dug, hoping to flee, and attacked the mole. Laterose, Grumm, and Martin journeyed to Noonvale, Rose's home, and returned with recruits to battle Badrang and put an end to his cruelty. Windred died along the way, effectively leaving Martin without any living family members, though Luke's death probably occurred after Martin's capture.Įventually, he escaped with the help of Laterose of Noonvale, her brother Brome, Felldoh, and Grumm Trencher. The pair were chained to a long line of other captured beasts and marched off to be slaves at Fort Marshank. Martin tried to fend them off, but he was struck unconscious and his sword was stolen. Windred came out after him and started to chide him, but a patrol sent by Badrang the Tyrant arrived on the scene. On one such occasion, Martin traveled needlessly far from the caves and began chopping at driftwood with his father's sword, reasoning that he could not be scolded too harshly for bringing back firewood. Consequently, Martin would often push at Timballisto's authority. As a young mouse, Martin was headstrong and even a little rebellious, sometimes resenting that his older friend Timballisto led the tribe rather than himself.
Martin was then raised by his maternal grandmother, Windred.
Seasons after Sayna's murder, Luke gave Martin his sword and sailed off in search of revenge. Martin never knew his mother as their tribe was attacked by Vilu Daskar shortly after Martin was born, resulting in her death. He was named after his paternal grandfather. Martin the Warrior was born in a cave along the North Shores to Luke the Warrior and Sayna.
