Title: Pearls of Lutra question
Post by: Redwallfan7 on March 17, 2012, 01:00:01 AM
I know the Redwall series is more about war and action than romance, but I have one question are Grath and Inbar in love I think they are I love otter couples, or are they just friends?

That's what I figured, cuz Brian didn't write it out directly but he gave hints on it.

I thought at first that Martin 2 knew they liked each other, so thats why he dropped them off at that place. (sorry, been a long time since I read it.)

My guess is that yes, they do marry, but Mr. Jacques specifically avoided writing about most relationships, partly due to the target audience of his books and partly to help him avoid any religious implications.

Even "marriage" as a whole is avoided in Redwall.  We don't hear of any weddings or anything...the relationship just sort of happens.

yeah. The Taggerung's mom is one of the few pregnant creatures ever mentioned.

It says specifically that Mattimeo and Tess were married at the end of Mattimeo, and that Pasque and Tammo were married at the end of The Long Patrol.  I think it says something about Matthias and Cornflower at the end of Redwall, but I can't recall for sure.

Oh yeah.... I think it did mention that...

Well... Lutra to Jaques's habits to Redwall, and Mattimeo. Where next? Liverpool? Anybody else wonder about Song and Danflor in Marlfox? Personally I think they should have married in the book. Thoughts Anyone?

I think it's fine as it turned out.  It would have been a nice touch for them to be married, but as is, I think it's an equally nice, warm-feeling assumption that they just lived out the rest of their lives as very good friends.

also what annoys me now is that if you are best friends with a person with the other sex everyone would assume that you love eachother. i hate that. brian thankfully didnt point that out because that would annoy me and make the redwall books more romantic

Well I just like to see characters in love I love the action in Redwall don't get me wrong, I just like both love and action

The abbot said that Cornflower must marry Matthias.

I meant more along the lines of a marriage ceremony being mentioned, not just that they were going to be married.

That's what I think to. Who do you think gave Grath away? I mean, walked her down the aisle.
