Autumn of the Warriors' Return
The Autumn of the Warriors' Return was the season in which Matthias, and his friends returned to Redwall Abbey after saving their young ones from the brutal clutches of Slagar the Cruel. This season was originally to be named "Autumn of the Early Chestnut" by Abbot Mordalfus but he ceded to Cornflower Fieldmouse's wish to delay the official naming of the season. It was marked by a wonderful feast held in the Orchard.
After everyone arrived at Redwall, Mrs. Churchmouse noted the name of the season to Basil Stag Hare, however it's unclear who came up with it.
The Autumn of the Warriors' Return occurred seven seasons before the Summer of the Rosebay Willowherb.
Not to be confused with the Autumn of the Homecomers.
