We can talk about other things regarding Sampetra. Like were the vermin pirates, privateers, or just soldiers? There are distinct differences and yet the vermin are like all three of them at different times in different ways

They did exactly what Ublaz wanted, like soldiers, they paid him tribute, like privateers, and they acted like (and called themselves) pirates. This has always confused me. Comments?

Hmmm, Well it is kinda like Gabool is whats-her-face book, king over the pirates...some one had to be king. As well, he had all the wood. And in all fairness there was a revolt, right?

They told me I was gullible. I believed them.

It is well known that 47% of statistics are made up on the spot.

-Sometime later, the second mate was unexpectedly rescued by the subplot, which had been trailing a bit behind the boat (and the plot). The whole story moved along.

I'm pretty sure Riftgard is an Island.

You should add the option "Maybe" because that would be my answer.

Life is too short to rush through it.

Gabool is in Mariel of Redwall. I should know, it's my favorite.(The only problem is Mariel dosen't wield a sword.   :(    I'm sword-crazy. :)

No and Riftgard isn't a island.
Never trust a smiling pirate.  :D

I can do that because I'm awesome.

Does it say that it isn't in the book?

It is an island; Triss, Shogg, and Welko came to Mossflower on a boat. Look at the Triss map.

Anyway, we've talked about that enough (I've tried to change the topic at least a few times). Let me ask this question: How is Ublaz an emperor? Sampetra is just one, insignificant little pirate island, not an empire
