Peter
I woke up feeling proud and accomplished. Aslan actually told me I'd done a good job! He sounded very proud of me, too.
I realized I must have been the first to wake up out of my siblings. I also wondered why I had had such an amazing dream. I decided to ask Susan; she's the smartest of us four.
Oh, how I wish that dream was true!
I could imagine it; Aslan telling me, and all my family was proud and happy.
I heard some noise coming from the hall. I opened the door and bumped into Edmund, who was also trying to get in.
"Hello, Peter. Sleep well?"
"I have, actually. Did you by any chance have some sort of miraculous dream?" Ed looked surprised and said:
"You've had one, too? Mine didn't exactly represent my biggest wish, but it simply showed me things about myself that I hadn't thought about before."
"Mine was different. You see, my dream showed me what I wanted most." At that moment, Lucy came in, smiling.
"Good morning! You won't believe it. I have slept better than ever!" She said.
"Let me guess, nice, beautiful, wish, in the form of a dream?" Ed asked and Lucy nodded. Caspian then came in and told us the same thing. A few seconds later, the door re-opened and Susan came in. She had a dreamy expression on her face and her hand on her stomach like she was in another world.
"Su, are you alright?" Edmund asked, snapping his fingers to get her attention.
"Slept well, My Queen?" Caspian said, beckoning her to sit on his lap. My instinct told me to stop them, but I remembered that he really did love Susan.
"Better than I had in my life." She answered.
"I think we can all agree that we've had the best dreams ever." Selene said.
"Our strongest wishes and desires." I added.
I looked around at everyone's dreamy faces and wondered what dreams they had.
"It must have been the blessing of Aslan." Su realized.
"I don't know about you all, but I want to go to my chambers to think." Edmund proposed.
During the following week, Selene and I talked about Ramandu's Island. I actually found we had a lot in common. I admired her very much, too. She was the only person who could beat me in a fair sword-fighting match and she pushed me to think harder and really, she was shaping me into becoming a better King. She didn't take any nonsense, but she had a nice sense of humour. She was brave and I don't think she'd ever heard of the word "tired". I decided she made an amazing friend; no wonder Susan was her best friend. In fact, she was the only person besides my family I could actually be myself with.
A few days later, I was talking to Caspian and Lucy about the Blue Star and Ramandu's Island when Edmund came in looking very excited.
"We're here! We're in Ramandu's Island!" I ran past him to take a look at it.
It was very peaceful-looking, with a wood and some sort of banquet set on a stone platform on a mountain facing the sea.
We got on the island and decided to head to the banquet table, which must be the Stone Table.
I spotted a star above, very close to the Blue Star. Suddenly, it dropped down and transformed into a man. He had a long, white beard and hair, and had wise grey eyes.
"I am Ramandu, also known as the father of the Blue Star. You can eat from our table if you are tired, but I must warn you; violence is not tolerated in this Island. That is why three of your Lost Lords are now asleep. Your journey beyond this Island should consist of you going to the Dark Island to get the last sword, and then coming back here to lay them at Aslan's Table. After that, you will be on your way home. I must warn you that the closer you get to the Dark Island, the darker your thoughts and dreams will get." He said, and returned to his place in the heavens.
A week passed and during it, I noticed the crew was more tired, Drinian was stricter, and everyone else seemed more tense and angry. My nightmares would worsen each night...
