Author's note: Hey, I've finally awoken from hibernation! I'm sorry you guys had to wait so long for the sequel, but now, here it is! Anyways, on to the story.
Y/N's POV
The first few weeks after the Pevensies had left, both Caspian and I spent our time locked in our rooms, only seen by servants at certain times of day for our meals. Caspian was obviously doing a bit better than I was. I wouldn't leave my room because I feared I would cry if I did, my appetite wasn't very normal, and I spent most of my day either staring at Edmund's torch or switching it off and on. It never seemed to falter and it always made my hope that he would be back grow, but only the tiniest bit. After about a month, I could finally leave my room without fear of breaking down and my appetite had gone back to normal. Caspian was looking healthier than when I had last seen him and still a bit better than me. Most of my time was then spent acting as queen or sitting near the tree which had turned into a portal and made Edmund disappear. Most days, I sat by that tree with his torch in my hand, crying silently, not talking to anyone that day. After a while, I was more at peace with the fact that Edmund had left. These days where I sat by the tree became more rare as I got better. The one day, though, that was one of the rare days. One of those days.
I was sitting by the tree when Caspian came up and sat down next to me. Most of these days were days where I talked to no one, not even Caspian, but today was a different story.
"One of those days again?" He asked
I wordlessly nodded my head.
He sighed. "I have a proposition for you."
"Yes?"
"Do you remember our father's friends, the seven lords of Narnia?" He asked
I nodded my head again.
"At our last meeting, the council and I decided that we should try and find them. I'm going on the mission to do so... and I would like you to come with me." He said
"But who would take care if the kingdom while we're gone?" I asked, the first full sentence I had spoken that day.
"I've taken care of that," he answered "The council will take care of the kingdom in our absence."
I thought for a moment. I couldn't think of anything that could've happened or gone wrong.
"Alright, I'll go." I answered
He grinned. "Great, our ship, the Dawn Treader, is being prepared. We set sail in two weeks, so be ready by then."
Author's note: I'm so sorry that it's so short. I wanted to save what happened next until the next part but I seriously didn't think that this chapter would be this short. I promise that I won't fall into another hibernation again and I'll try my best to post the next chapter as soon as possible. Anyways, until next time. Have a nice day/night.
