When they say 'grace', it's just a little song to the seasons thanking them for the food.

It's much more like celebration among friends and peace.

Yes, the grace is a little confusing about that also. And they sometimes do say "amen". But I think we can all just agree and say that Brian didn't have religion in his Redwall books.

There's also a mention of Hell's teeth in several books. Here's an idea. Hellgates is the opening to the Dark Forest. The sunny slopes are part of the Dark forest. Now that BJ himself has left for the Dark Forest, we must imagine the spaces that he left for us.

That's... a really good idea, Storm! I hadn't thought of that. All different parts of the same place. Genius.
Redwall is always open, its tables laden, to you and any of good heart.

Yea that makes a lot of sense. I personally think that hellgates is a separate place and dark forest and sunny slopes are for good creatures. But well never know for sure

Amen just means "I agree", so it isn't that strange.
Received mostly negative reviews.

Amen: So it is, so be it.
Sorry, I study too much. :'(

So like Daniel said, it is not strange.

I usually hear "amen" over burritos.

"That was a good burrito."
"Amen."

XD Sorry, sorry! Back on topic, then...

Reading through the Ask Brian Files:
Volume 2, thought I'd be interesting to post if anyone's interested:

"There is no religion in my stories and no hidden meanings. What you see is what you get. The Abbey is just a place of peace and comradeship, where creatures choose to live together."

they also used the dark forest as the place were BAD, cruel cats went when they died in Warriors by erin hunter!
Old stories told by travellers, Great songs that bards have sung, Of Mossflower summers, faded, gone, When Redwall's stones were young. Great Hall fires on winter nights,
The legends, who remembers,Battles, banquets, comrades, quests,Recalled midst glowing embers.Draw close now, little woodlander

I don't remember that? Maybe they really are both sunny slopes and hellgates in dark forest

That's a good theory, dark forest is the whole thing, with sunny slopes and hellgates inside it.

It's not my theory, it was Storm's

I always thought that "hellgates" or I'm sure it'd be safe just to use "hell" is, obviously, the bad place, and the "sunny slopes" are inside of dark forest. I think of dark forest is just like Mossflower but minus the vermin.

that does not explain why it is called Dark forest
For GOD so loved the world he gave his only begotton SON so that whoever belived in him would not parish but live eternal life.


Oh yeah...buitiful verse... :D
