AN: Thank you for your reviews! I've actually been sitting on this, and I'd like to think it's better for the months that I sat on this. I hadn't realized that I'd left this FF as a work-in-progress until Liam the Wise's comment about adding to this FF with the other Pevensies and Narnians in True Narnia, which I immediately loved! So, stay tuned. I promise to be more faithful. Thank you for reading, and thank you, Professor for your gift of Narnia.
Susan, daughter of Eve, I know how angry you are now, how conflicted you have felt. You were always the grown up one, and now… Now your brothers and sister have gone ahead without you. In time, your anger will come into focus… And I am waiting for the day that you and I are together again and the Golden Age will have no end.
These lessons are not easy, they could never be easy, but they are lessons we all must learn. Growing up is the hardest of tasks, second only to loving another person in all of their humanity and imperfection. One day, my Gentle Queen, you will understand why it had to be this way. But now dream a dream of a time long past, and remember who you were when you all were together, before you grew up and try hard to remember me.
