Part I Chapter III

There was bright light, she saw. It shone through the window of a small room. She sat up and looked around. 'This isn't my bedroom' she thought. The place seemed so familiar, but the still young Lucy could not put her nose on it. 'Where am I? Am I dreaming?' She jumped off her bed and looked around to unfamiliar, yet recognizable things.

Suddenly, the door burst opened. Lucy quickly turned around to find a happy face and furry pants.

"Mr. Tumnus!" she yelled in joy

"Hello Lucy Pevensie!" He slowly bowed down "Queen Lucy the Valiant...uh…I brought you a spot of breakfast. Not much, just what I have, milk, toast, cheese…" Tumnus placed the tray of galore and smell on the table that was near the window.

Mr. Tumnus went on and on about his food, Lucy looked out the window and wondered. She looked down on her skin and with her fingers she pinched it. "Ow!" she yelled. Tumnus turned around "What's wrong?"

Lucy looked up to Tumnus and said "Nothing, I just thought that…this is all a dream." Tumnus smiled and turned around to pour the milk "I thought I was dreaming too, until I woke up this morning on my back on my living room floor."

"Oh, I'm sorry Mr. Tumnus if I'm such trouble to you" Lucy apologized

"No, no, don't worry about it" Tumnus quickly turned around and sat down on a chair. "Sit down Lucy Pevensie, you must be hungry after quite a journey." Lucy sat down with a confused face. "Journey? I haven't been on one"

"Are you sure? Because Lucy Pevensie, I'm about to ask you how you got back into Narnia." Tumnus asked

"I would like to know for myself how I got here Mr. Tumnus. How did I get here?"

Tumnus' smile broke into a worried face. "You mean, you didn't intend to come into Narnia? Because I found you on the Western Woods forest floor, the trees told me you were alone, you were asleep so I brought you back up here. I was wondering why you were so far away from the lamp post."

"I was in the Western Woods? Asleep?" Lucy asked

"Yes, Lucy…are you sure you don't know how you got there?"

Lucy shook her head. Mr. Tumnus sat back with a face of worry "Oh dear…"

The silence was unbearable as Lucy ate her cheese and toast, the crunch was the only sound that was made between them. Tumnus only looked out the window and back at Lucy. Lucy stopped chewing and swallowed. She look outside too.

"I remember hearing a woman's voice in my dreams." Lucy said suddenly. Tumnus looked at her, surprised like it was her first words.

"In my dream, a beautiful, gorgeous woman laid in her bed. She told me to come to her. She told me that she will sing to me, to guide me." Lucy looked down to her nightgown and picked off a piece of a green leaf stuck to sleepwear.

"I didn't know where she was guiding me to, but she said a poem to me. She disappeared and all I could see was Cair Paravel, and the Dancing Lawn, and the Eastern Sea, and I saw a place that I don't recognize. It was like a cave…"

Tumnus had cut in with much interest "A cave? That must the Embric Ridges you're talking about"

"What am I talking about? What is the Embric Ridges?" Lucy asked with much confusion in her brain.

"The Queen, she requested that a refugee was to be built, the Embric Ridges is a refugee for Narnians and their allies."

Lucy put down her toast, 'Who is this Queen?' she thought.

"Lucy, do you remember the words to that woman's song? Can you repeat it to me?" Tumnus asked with much eagerness. His eyes weren't the same, they were of worry and peril.

"No, I'm sorry Mr. Tumnus. I don't kn-"

"Please Lucy Pevensie! Try to remember the words, it doesn't have to be the whole song" Tumnus' eyes were turning into the darkest that it could get.

Lucy hesitated "Well…I only remember the words she repeated over and over…"

"Well? What was it?"

"She kept saying 'Once more and again'"

Tumnus' head fell on the table. It rested in the wrap of his hands. Lucy drew her hands towards the faun and nudged his arm. "Mr. Tumnus? Is everything alright?"

Tumnus picked his head up and looked toward Lucy. "Lucy Pevensie, those were the words that Queen Beyuth gave to the Narnians last night. It was a word of hope and that help will come and restore peace into Narnia once more."

Lucy wondered and asked "Queen Beyuth? Is she the new Queen of Narnia?"

Mr. Tumnus answered "Yes, she's only 20-years-old, she was crowned last month when King Forian, son of King Rilian, died"

"Has it really been that long Mr. Tumnus? Since my last visit? Queen Beyuth is the granddaughter to King Rilian? The one Eustace and I saved from our last visit?" Lucy was asking so many questions at once that Tumnus had to calm her down. She was practically falling out of her seat.

"Yes, it has been that long Lucy Pevensie"

"But, I don't understand it still, how did I get here?"

"That's where I was just about to get to…" Tumnus got closer to Lucy to whisper to her, as if there were trees inside house to listen upon them. "The Queen su-"

Suddenly, a loud crash was heard outside the room. Tumnus quickly covered Lucy's mouth, knowing that Lucy had a tendency to scream at unexpected terror. Tumnus let go of Lucy for a quick moment to rush to the door to lock it, but the suddenly the door burst opened sending the faun and the door flying in the air. Tumnus hit the wall and the door quickly brushed after him, knocking the poor faun out. Tumnus fell onto the soft bed and slipped off and crashed into the floor.

Lucy screamed "Mr. Tumnus!" She quickly rushed to his side, but before doing so she was grabbed by an unknown arm. A deep husky voice said over her "You're coming with me." Lucy screamed once more Mr. Tumnus' name. She struggled in the arms of her kidnapper.

"By orders of the Queen, all Kings and Queens of the area are to be captured and brought to her."

"Queen Beyuth!" Lucy screamed with confusion. She had thought Queen Beyuth was a good Queen, but then in her moments of thinking, the man cut her off and said "No, Queen Biedej"

The man was dressed in clads of fur and armor. His primary colors were the colors of the forest, green, brown, and white. "Let me go!" Lucy shouted. "If only it were that easy, Queen Lucy, how am I sure that you won't run away?" Lucy said nothing and kept kicking her attacker.

It was too late when the exited out of Tumnus' house. He mounted a black horse that was covered in beaver furs and carried sacks of whatever could be carried. He said in an unknown language to the horse and the horse began to gallop away from the house.

In Lucy's last words in the area she shouted only Mr. Tumnus' name.
