Author's note: Written for this prompt: Chronicles of Narnia, Susan & Lucy Pevensie, jewelry


The first time the Queens visit the Dwarfs at Foundry Hills, they are gifted with baskets overflowing with assorted gems and fine jewelry, and they are both at first honored and then they become fascinated.

Lucy immediately goes into the ground with the miners, and begins to learn everything there is to know about finding veins of gold and silver. Susan spends time with the craftspeople, learning how to cut and craft the gems, how to tell a simple cut from a masterwork, and the knowledge they gain adds immeasurably to Narnia's greatest treasures.
