Title: Green isle
Post by: Captain Tammo on July 04, 2011, 02:55:49 AM
green isle is an awesome place and I'd love to live there if I was in the redwall world. I've always wondered what happened after high Rhulain. Does anybody have any opinions as to what happened?

Also, what was the deeplough? (sorry if I'm not right with the monster in the deep crater's name) and how do you think the crater got there in the first place as well the monster inside of it? I always thought the crater was from a meteor or an old volcano and the water is just rainwater that's been collected over hundreds of years. But I don't have any idea as to how the monster got there.

Any ideas?

Plesiosaurs rule!

Sorry, random outburst.

And yes, they do exist.

There was a Plesiosaur Carcass Netted in 1977.

In Jan 24, 2007 a living dinosaur shark was found in Japan.

I actually googled those. The one in Japan I saw a video of the real dinosaur. It was ugly. So yes, they do exist.

I love Green Isle! Specially that Holt Summerdell place. It sounds like the Redwall version of a resort. :)
Deeplough is interesting. I think it might have been made by a meteor or something.

I remember hearing about that dinosaur shark. Creepy.

As for Green Isle, I was always disappointed it wasn't mentioned in later books. High Rhulain made it pretty clear the island, Redwall, and Salamandastron were made firm allies. I'm particularly interested in their relationship with Salamandastron. Perhaps they fell out of contact when their messenger goose died/when Salamandastron (lost?) their ships.

As for the crater, I always thought it was something like the Crater Lake in the US.

And Slothanug or however that's spelled - yes, dinosaur shark, totally, or a plesiosaur. Fascinating.

He was a pleisosaur. He was called a dragon in the book, but the map clearly shows him as a pleisosaur. He probably was being portrayed by Jacques as just that.

I'm fairly certain Green Isle was mentioned again after High Rhulain. I can't remember

WHAT?! I need to read that book again! I thought Green Isle just disappeared from the series the same way Southsward did.

What I'd be interested in is hearing how Tiria chose her successor.  I wish another book had been written about Green Isle.  High Rhulain is one of my favorite books.  I wish Green Isle would have been kept as the setting for parts of future stories (like Salamandastron is).

I wonder if Leatho ever got married. Since he's the last of the Shellhounds, he'd have to marry into another clan.  But he doesn't really seem like the family type to me, so I suppose the Shellhounds just died out. :(  High Rhulain is one of the best books Brian Jaques wrote, IMO.
Title: Re: Green isle
Post by: Tiria Wildlough on August 15, 2011, 06:13:45 AM
Yeah, I don't think Leatho got married. He is not that type of person. :(
I might get around to writing that story, but right now I am swamped with them! :o
Title: Re: Green isle
Post by: Dotti on August 15, 2011, 10:47:05 PM
Yeah, no romance for Leatho. :(  So the Shellhounds died out. :'( :'(  ......Unless......there was a Shellhound aboard the vessel with the previous Rhulain, and he survived the wreck and was rescued by some otters that had been shipwrecked previously, and they all lived on a deserted island..........and then he and his wife and a few of his friends struck out to sea in one desparate atempt to reach the mainland or get back to Green Isle.............but they were blown waaaaaay off course in a terrible gale.........and they were the ones who discovered and populated Ruddaring..........and then one day his descendants make it back to Green Isle, and thus the Shellhounds are saved!!!!! ;D ;D ;D ;D 
There, I just saved the Shellhounds!   8)

Post by: Tiria Wildlough on August 16, 2011, 09:43:18 AM
You can never tell. :D
I started a story about Tiria's successor. You can read it on the fanfiction board. It's 'Riayan Wildlough's Adversary: A Story of Success and Succession.' Please give your opinion.
