Plot synopsis[]

The Efrafan Owsla flees the collapsing caverns leaving only Woundwort, Vervain, Moss, and a handful of officers alive. Realizing that not even the cave-in will stop General Woundwort from trying to destroy them, Hazel, Fiver, and Bigwig make preparations to wage war on Efrafa with the rabbits recruiting all their animal friends nearby, including Bark.

Fiver meanwhile senses that Campion is not dead, and indeed the Efrafan captain manages to pull himself free from the rubble of the caverns, alive but horribly scarred. He meets the Black Rabbit of Inlé, who tells him his time has not yet come and that he has a special destiny in store for him.

Meanwhile, Moss, seeing that Woundwort is going mad, teams up with a doe named Heather to overthrow him, but then the Watership group attacks Efrafa in full force, causing Efrafa to cave in and the tree supporting the warren to fall, destroying Woundwort. The Efrafans are free from Woundwort at last. Later, Woundwort is revealed to be alive, and Fiver senses this, but does not tell anyone.
