'''Ould Zillo the Bard''' was a male otter of the [[Otterclans of Green Isle|outlaw otter clans]] on [[Green Isle]]. He was later on in his seasons, yet he was still large in size. Zillo's body was mottled with scars, one of his legs had been replaced with a wooden peg, and he had a black mussel-shell patch over his left eye. He held a round, flat rudder drum which he struck with his tail, and he often used it to restore order among the otters.<br />
<br />
Zillo had prophetic dreams that he used as the inspiration for beautiful songs. During a meeting of the otter clans, Zillo shared with the others his dreams of an armored mouse with a wondrous [[Sword of Martin|sword]], [[Martin the Warrior]], telling him of the arrival of the High Otterqueen, the [[High Rhulain (title)|High Rhulain]] (who turned out to be [[Tiria Wildlough]]). Zillo told them that she would arrive to free the clans from the tyranny of [[Riggu Felis]] and his [[Feral-Cat army of Green Isle|feral cat army]]. This news inspired much hope and joy throughout the oppressed clans. <br />
<br />
After the families of the clans were nearly tracked down and attacked by Riggu Felis and his guards, the otters knew that they had to flee to another part of the island. Zillo suggested to [[Leatho Shellhound]] that the clans go to [[Holt Summerdell]], the former holiday home of the otters that had been long forgotten. The bard was the only one who knew of its location, for his grandfather showed it to him when he was young. Zillo, singing a song of the bygone place, led the clans safely inland to their new refuge. He remained at Holt Summerdell while many of the other otters went to war with the feral cats.<br />
