'''From Marsh to Mountain Heights''' is the eighth episode of [[Redwall - Season 3|Season 3]] and the thirty-fourth episode overall of the Nelvana [[Redwall TV Series]].

===Summary===
As slow worms attack the [[Warden of Marshwood Hill]], [[Martin the Warrior]] hopes to save him, but he's soon attacked as well.

[[Brome]], disguised as a corsair, encounters [[Wulpp]] on the beach. He binds his injured paw, and assists him with walking up to [[Fort Marshank]], where [[Badrang the Tyrant]] and [[Tramun Clogg]] quarrel in front of their troops. After gaining entry to the fort, Brome reveals himself to [[Keyla]], and explains his escape plan to the slaves.

[[Laterose of Noonvale]], [[Grumm Trencher]], and [[Pallum]] awaken to see Martin struggling with a slow worm. Rose helps Martin get free, however there are still many more around.

Badrang summons [[Gurrad]] and directs him to provide Clogg with poisoned grog. At Clogg's camp, the corsair meets with [[Oilback]], a knife thrower, to discuss his own devious plan for Badrang. When Gurrad exits Badrang's quarters, Oilback, under the impression it's Badrang himself, murders him and takes the flagon of grog. Brome and Keyla guide the slaves to Marshank's prison pit, and have a brief encounter with Oilback along the way. Oilback departs and proceeds to drink the poisoned beverage. Brome and Keyla make a disturbance while trying to open the prison pit, alerting a wall guard to their presence. They persuade him to move along and then help the slaves down into the pit. Once there, Brome reveals the tunnel he previously used to escape, and they all head into it.

Martin, Rose, Grumm, and Pallum use fiery torches to drive back the slow worms and rescue the Warden. He navigates the four travelers out of the [[West Marshes]] and refers them to [[Boldred]], who has a [[Boldred's Tunnel|tunnel]] in the mountains ahead that can help them get to [[Noonvale]].

Keyla and Brome ensure the last slaves have entered the tunnel, and seal it off.

Martin and his companions have breakfast. They're disrupted by the [[Gawtrybe]], who totally destroy their campsite. Rose threatens to inform Boldred of their behavior, and they quickly leave.

As the slaves progress through the escape tunnel, it caves in on them.

The Gawtrybe return with their leader, [[Wakka]], who demands a toll from Martin. When the mouse refuses to hand over his sword, Wakka challenges him to one-on-one unarmed combat. As Martin prepares to fight, Wakka attacks early.

===Official Synopsis===
Martin wakes to see the Warden under attack and runs to his aid-- but his other companions sleep on, unaware as the battle rages. Brome, on his way to being a hero, passes himself off as a corsair and is able to re-enter the dreaded Marshank, where he manages to contact Keyla and announce his plan to save ALL the slaves. Badrang hatches a plot to get rid of Clogg forever. The slaves excitedly await release from the prison pit but as Brome moves the heavy grating they are seen by a guard who races to raise the alarm.

Brome is able to convince the guard that he is acting on Badrang's orders, which must not be questioned, and drops INTO the pit. There he kicks down the wall to reveal Grumm's old hidden escape tunnel to freedom! Meanwhile, as Martin battles to save the Warden, Rose and the others awake and rush to help him. They head for the distant mountains but are attacked by the Gawtrybe, unruly and unpredictable rogue squirrels. Martin is forced into combat with Wakka, their leader. As he prepares to do single-handed combat with his foe, back at Marshank the escape tunnel collapses on the slaves.

===Differences from ''[[Martin the Warrior (book)|Martin the Warrior]]''===
*In the episode, Keyla panicked when the tunnel caves in, but in the book, Keyla actually was the only one who does not react with fear, but rather snaps in anger.
*Wulpp never figured out that Brome was really a mouse in the book.
