The Kingdom of Woodhaven
“There was only peace in the land.”
Long ago, there was a kingdom called Woodhaven. There, squirrels, bunnies, chipmunks, and beavers lived in harmony with no worry of predators whatsoever.
“But kingdoms like this don’t last like this forever...”
For you see, the squinnie (Little is known about the squinnie, except that he was the offspring of a bunny and squirrel.) was ruler and that made the squirrel and bunny races next in line for throne. And the chipmunks and beavers were jealous, oh so jealous...
“Envy never brings good fortune.”
Believing the law was unfair, beavers and chipmunks plotted together to force the squinnie to make one of them heir to the throne. However, this plan soon become more devilish as the chipmunks and beavers became more jealous. So, they attacked the squinnie’s castle!!!
“Battle for the king!”
The bunnies and squirrels fought back. There was a bloody battle that night!
“Sometimes, retreating is the only solution.”
Sensing they were losing this battle, the rebellious chipmunks and beavers fled to fight another day. The squirrels and bunnies relished their victory and spent the night feasting away as the chipmunks and beavers planned their next attack.
“1st battle, we forgive, 2nd battle, war begins!”
Believing that the chipmunks and beavers had given up, bunnies and squirrels went on with their everyday lives. That is, until the chipmunks and beavers attacked...
“May Mother Nature punish us if we have disgraced her will.”
They fought, friend on friend. It seemed the battle would never end. It seemed that Mother Nature was furious, for there was a sudden downpour which started to flood the battlefield, washing away the corpses and blood of the battle. The forces fled to safety.
“If you value your life, do not go out in rain season.”
Rain season had come and the two opposing forces ceased to battle, for fear of another flood. So, while the bunnies and squirrels got ready for battle in the castle, the chipmunks and beavers lived in an old, abandoned village near some hills.
“Fighting a friend is worst than fighting an enemy.”
During this period, the squirrels accused the bunnies of treachery, egged on by a chipmunk. Meanwhile, beavers, believing that the chipmunks would steal all the glory in the end, attacked the chipmunks. There were no allies, only fear, confusion, and four forces clashing in war.
“Sometimes, joining an enemy can make a friend.”
But little did the forces know that one of each group had been meeting together to form a peace treaty. These four were Valia of the Frosty Trees from the bunnies, Kovo of the Fiery Waters from the squirrels, Creto of the Pine Ashes from the beavers, and Lugrin of the Black Gate from the chipmunks.
“Peace is better than war.”
The peace treaty was finished and brought to the leader of each army. It was immediately signed and executed – the war was over! Still resenting each other, the four groups went their own ways. The kingdom of Woodhaven was gone.
“Until the squinnie rises.”
To this day, nobody knows of what became of the squinnie. Some say that he murdered himself in despair of what had happened to his kingdom. Other’s say that he still wanders in what was Woodhaven to this day. All that we know is that he had disappeared during the war. We still wonder to this day of what has become of the squinnie.
All paragraph headings are popular bunny sayings, all are sayings as stated by the Four Founders, except Lugrin of the Black Gate because all his quotes had something to do with cheese puffs....
