A/N: Hey guys just to let you know I'll try update regularly. Thanks!
If I forgot to mention the ages of the Pevensie's in the last chapter, they are as follows:
Lucy (15) Edmund (17) Susan (19) Peter (20)
Colourful lanterns, giant bonfires, a wonderful feast, and extraordinary music. The Autumn Festival had begun!
Queen Lucy, Queen Susan, King Edmund and High King Peter were sat on wooden thrones, entwined with leaves, flowers and fruits. They all looked absolutely amazing. Lucy was wearing a yellow dress, the colour of celebration, which was embroidered with purple. It was long and had short, puffy sleeves and it looked absolutely great on Lucy. Her hair was down and flowing and she was wearing a crown of purple flowers and leaves. Susan was wearing a deep, midnight blue dress which was strapless and made her deep blue eyes sparkle. Her dark brown hair was tied up loosely in a bun, and to finish the outfit off, she was also wearing a crown made of flowers. Peter, looking every inch the High King he was, was wearing a red tunic emblazoned with a greatly detailed golden lion, the symbol of Narnia. With dark trousers, boots, and a crown of leaves sitting atop his perfectly neat golden hair, he had all the ladies at the festival swooning. Edmund sat brooding on his throne, looking as dark and mysterious and ever. He was wearing a black and silver tunic, trousers and boots. The black and silver looked striking against his pale skin and dark eyes and hair. He outfit was completed with a crown of silver leaves. He looked every bit as incredible as his brother, maybe even a bit more.
After the speeches from the monarchs, all 4 Pevensie's were required to dance. This was the one part of the festival that Edmund was dreading. But he really shouldn't have worried, he was a fabulous dancer. Better than his siblings and most of the creatures at the festival.
People had come from far and wide to see the festival, as it was very famous throughout all the countries neighbouring Narnia. Probably the most infamous aspect of the celebration was the story telling at midnight. But that was hours away and Edmund still had to get through another hour of dancing.
Across the dance floor was Astra Greenleaf, a young girl from the outskirts of Narnia. She was sat with her uncle, and she didn't look very happy. She was too shy to dance and too shy to go talk to people. So she sat on a log, drinking mead (non-alcoholic) and desperately waiting for the story telling.
"God, I've had enough, I'm getting out of here," she thought to herself.
"Uncle, I'm just going for a little walk, to get away from all the noise." She told her drunk Uncle, who gave a grunt and went back to drinking.
King Edmund was getting sick and tired of all the dancing, "Pete, Pete I'm just going to go for a walk, to get away from the noise for a little bit? Okay?"
His brother gave a short, "yeah, yeah whatever you like Eddie."
A/N: I'm sorry I've left it in an awkward place, but I think that the next part will be better as a whole chapter. If you haven't already guessed it's where Astra and Ed meet.
PLEASE REVIEW IT WOULD MEAN SO MUCH TO ME! THANKS!
