Thank you Ariel! I love these verses!

Re: Cair Paravel's ruins

According to Google search, here is another take on the origin of Cair Paravel's name:
" 'Cair Paravel' means “a lesser court” (Old English: 'caer' means 'court' and 'paravail' means 'lesser' or 'under.') This is probably a reference to the fact that the kings of Narnia are under Aslan.

It seems like everything is coming to an end when you suddenly find it is the brightest beginning with joy beyond description. I t...

Re: Narnia fan - nice to be here!

Welcome, Jim! I am Benisse, and I really like The Horse and His Boy too because of all the growth in character development of Bree, plus Shasta, Aravis -- and the humble, beautiful consistency of Hwin. I have been absent from The Lion's Call this past year because of so many activities and stretchin...
