Queen susan
I do not own anything in the Chronicles of Narnia except this plot and some OCs. It all belongs to C.S LEWIS.
Dear Telmarines ! I, Queen Susan of Narnia ordained by The Great Aslan himself, stand here in front of you with peace.
The disappearance of the King has been saddening not only to me but to the Narnians too and i honestly thought it should be to You too. Looking at how well the king I and the Narnians have treated you all these years, this behavior you are putting up is unreasonable! He has been missing not even half a year and your loyalty has reached to its end. Is it only the presence of King Caspian that holds the peace treaty you signed?
Have you stopped to think about the effects of the troubles you are causing? Narnia has children, pregnant women, the sick and the old women who cannot defend themselves and yet you take advantage of that and break their homes. Have you not any sentiments at all?
We are not many to fight you but you know that if you bring wall on us we will fight to the best of our abilities until our last breath! And know that we do not fight alone. You are witnesses of what happened when you tried to take over Narnia after the death of Miraz. You saw who fought on our side and him you can not defeat.
As queen, it does not give me any peace to start war when we can stand as one and defend Narnia and regroup to continue looking for the king instead.
I have heard rumors that some of you say that the King has ran away with a woman and that is ridiculous! I admit the King and I have had some problems in our marriage and so is every married person here. It is unfair and disrespectful of you to think he would run away with a woman just because he had an affair before I met him. Lady Beth and the king were together before he met me and that is over six years ago, so I find it unreasonable for you to think maybe he may have gone off with her or even with another woman. What is worse is you think he has abandoned the kingdom. He has fought very much for this kingdom for him to leave it behind just like that. Narnia has been made a home by Him not only for Narnians but for all of you Telmarines! I have worked hand in hand with him to see to it that there is fairness between Narnians and Telmarines and are you just going to throw our efforts away because he is not here? Or have you forgotten that I am as much a leader as he is. In fact,as you know, I was made queen not because I married a king but I was made Queen by Aslan a long time ago. So weather you like it or not, I am the Queen of Narnia and I remain so until the end of time or until the Great Lion Aslan says I cease to be.
I expect respect and loyalty from all of you, be it Narnians or Telmarines!
From this day on wards, I take charge of everything concerning this kingdom. You are to submit all reports to me, all those which you submitted to the king. We are still sending search parties to look for him so instead of being here arguing about everything and nothing, we could put our energy to good use and look for our dear King. Fighting is not just disastrous but also disrespectful to the King, I and also to each one of you.
I speak as a wife, a sister, a friend and of course as queen Susan Pevensie of Narnia.
Cheers from the Narnians were heard and the majority of the Telmarines. Most Telmarines put down their weapons and cheered for the queen. The Narnians raised high their swords as a form of respect and made way for the queen to pass.
"Your majesty". Said Reepicheep the loyal mouse while bowing down for his Queen.
"Reep", what can I do for you?
"Oh my queen, that was a great speech". Reep said while waving his tail.
"You know me reep, I am queen afterall and speeches come in naturally". Susan said teasingly.
"Walk with me". Susan said to the Mouse.
"Oh no my queen,with all these people, I feel shy". Reep said looking down.
"Shy? You? Oh my!, since when did you become shy? Besides I could use your jokes right now." Susan said teasingly again.
"Your majesty, I just want to assure you that I will do everything in my power to see to eat that the king is found safe and sound".
"I do not doubt that for a second and I appreciate your efforts Reep and your loyalty. I am sure that wherever the king is, he is grateful too". Susan said sadly.
"It seems you have managed to hold off the Telmarines your majesty". Reep said.
"For now yes, but do keep an eye on them. They may be planning something secretly and we do not want that". Susan said while smiling at the crowd as she was entering the palace doors.
"You can count on me your majesty". Reep said and went away.
Susan walked majestically to her chambers. She looked stronger than she was few hours before the speech. She is queen of Narnia but even queens can have some "off moments" especially when a dear one is missing. That however is not reason enough to show weakness to the people.
Susan and Caspian had some marital problems with Caspian when they just got married. It was all because of Lady Beth of Calormene.
Well, well well. I would like to know what you all think about this chapter. I know I said there would be something about what is hapenning in England in this chapter but I couldn't manage to put it,however it will be in chapter six which will be out very very soon. Enjoy!
