By jove. [Another quiet exclamation. He'd nearly forgotten about the awful news Peter and Susan broke as they left, distracted by these new surroundings as he was.] That's right.

It's a possibility we shouldn't rule out, but I'm not entirely satisfied with it. I suggest we look around the area some more before we come to a better conclusion.

[marksqueen]

Yes, that sounds like the best plan. Though I'd feel better if I had my bow with me.

[despite her gentle nature, she would still take someone down if she felt threatened]

[counterbalanced]

My sword will suffice for now, until we can find a bow for you. [Edmund, though far from relaxed at least has a better grasp of the situation now. Enough to let his dry wit surface for a moment.]

I realised I'd forgotten my torch in Narnia, but I suppose I would be glad for it, if it means I have my sword instead.

[marksqueen]

Yes, I think I would prefer a sword to a torch myself, in this case.

[counterbalanced]

We'll do well enough on our own, the two of us.

[Edmund eyes the feast laid out before the rest of the kidnapped with one part longing and one part suspicion.]

Have you eaten any of it?

[marksqueen]

No, and don't. Fairy food is dangerous.

[counterbalanced]

I know. [That's what has him worried.]

How long do you think we can last without food or water?

[They're going to have to eat eventually, and this time there won't be a convenient apple grove around to stave off the hunger.]

[marksqueen]

People can go longer without food than water. Perhaps if we boil it first, it might be all right...

[counterbalanced]

Boiling might work on bacteria but I wouldn't be terribly surprised if enchantments held through it.

We'll have to find another source. More importantly, we'll have to tread carefully with these faeries. While we don't plan to stay, offending our hosts would be unwise.

[marksqueen]

When did you get to be the logical one? [she says it playfully enough, though there is also pride. She's so glad she's not the only one]

But you're right. We have to be careful until we can find a way out of here.

[counterbalanced]

I have always been logical. [Edmund replies to his sister, his smile small. The magic of Narnia still clings to him, allowing him to remember his life as a king, and not just as an adult.]

Do you think Aslan will come once he knows what's happened to us?

[marksqueen]

He may come, but we shouldn't put our hopes in it. We need to find a way to figure it out on our own.

[counterbalanced]

Of course. [Even after their coronation, the siblings had learnt to make it through on their own. This will be no different.]

We mustn't wait around. He would not want us to either. [Edmund gives a quick scan of the feast area.] Where shall we look first?

[marksqueen]

Let's get away from this crowd. [she slips her hand through his arm] Come on, Ed. We could both use the fresh air.
