Hmm, haven't read Mossflower in a long time... he probably was inconspicuosly killed by the squirrels or otters.

We don't know what happens; it's never mentioned. Given, though, that it's the closest thing to a reformation that any villain has until The Bellmaker, five books later, I don't think it's presumptuous to guess that it didn't end terribly for him.

I imagine he took up the life of a pirate/sea beast after running with the other foe beasts away from Kotir.

There was a fanfiction about Ashleg escaping to Noonvale and having a nasty surprise. You should read it.

No. Argulor wanted to eat him, as he had never tasted pine marten and wanted to know what it was like, but he never got the chance. Being half-blind from age, he confused Bane for Ashleg (as the fox was wearing Ashleg's red cloak), and killed and took a bite out of him. When he realized that it was only a fox, he suffered a heart attack and died.

First off, ahoy everybeast, first time posting 'ere! Waves paw ecstatically

An' second off, just to be start my Redwall Abbey life with some book-based know-how, Argulor also took some pretty good wounds from good ol' Bane mid-air before the mercenary kicked the bucket, which definitely helped lead to the old eagle's heart attack out of the sheer surprise and shock of not only catching the wrong creature...But catching a creature who could defend himself fiercely, scimitar in paw and a screech on his lips.
