Dingeye
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Dingeye is an anthropomorphic stoat in the book Salamandastron of the Redwall series by Brian Jacques.
Dingeye was a soldier in Ferahgo the Assassin's horde. He and his friend Thura deserted the horde and wandered about aimlessly until they eventually ended up at Redwall Abbey. There, they were treated as guests, although they repaid the woodlanders by accidentally shooting Brother Hal in the neck with a bow and arrow. Afraid they would suffer dire consequences, the two stoats stole Martin the Warrior's sword and fled into Mossflower Woods.
When Thura soon died of the dreaded Dryditch Fever in the depths of Mossflower, Dingeye continued without him, only to be caught up with by Dethbrush, Ferahgo's tracker, who beheaded him and took the sword.
