One of the things the movies got really, really wrong.
Dear authors:
Father Christmas gave Susan a bow and quiver and horn. He gave me a dagger and healing cordial.
Guess which of us actually rides to war?
~Lucy
P.S. Our subjects called Susan "the Gentle" for a reason.
...a fair-haired lady with a very merry face who wore a helmet and a mail shirt and carried a bow across her shoulder and a quiver full of arrows at her side. ("The Queen Lucy," whispered Duffle.) (HHB)
"She's not like Lucy, you know, who's as good as a man, or at any rate as good as a boy. Queen Susan is more like an ordinary grown-up lady. She doesn't ride to the wars, though she is an excellent archer." (Corin to Shasta, HHB)
"I wasn't shooting to kill, you know." (Susan, PC)
