"Land ho!" One of the crew members shouted.

Peter and Reepicheep were playing chess and Peter was losing horribly. He was never good at chess. He would lose to Susan all the time, and even Lucy sometimes. But today, his horrid playing was because he couldn't get Edmund out of his head. He couldn't get Lucy out either. But chess was Ed's favorite game and made Peter think about all the times that his brother had tried to teach him how to win a game. But long story short, he never won a game, not to Edmund.

"Is something upsetting you, your Majesty?" Reepicheep asked him.

"Nothing." Peter shook his head but Reep clearly did not believe him. Peter sighed. " I'm just not able to concentrate...I'm worried that's all."

Before Reep could say anything, Susan approached him and Reep on the main deck. "Peter. We need to suit up." She told him.

"I'll be right behind you." He answered and Susan nodded.

"I suppose we need to prepare for any potential enemy." Reepicheep commented.

"Yes, we do." Peter smiled. "Thank you for the game, Reep. I know that you were trying to distract me. I can assure you that you made me feel better."

"Anytime." The mouse bowed down.

Once Peter and Susan had changed, they realised that they didn't have their weapons with them. "It feels weird without my bow and arrows." Susan mentioned.

"I'm just happy that they have our weapons. They need them more than we do anyway"

"We may not have enough weapons if there is a fight."

"Let's pray that it doesn't come to that."

It was nighttime when the crew of the Dawn Treader and the rulers of Narnia got off at the Island. Susan had won the argument and Peter finally agreed to get more information before they charged into the enemies hands. Though Peter still was not fond of this plan. They climbed up a hill which was not quite steep but it was slippery. Caspian was the first one on top and helped the others up. Susan tried not to look at him and Caspian tried the same, but they knew that they couldn't continue this for a long time.

The crew then came to an empty pathway that led them to a long table in the middle of nowhere. There were all sorts of edible items present. There were huge candlesticks at regular intervals. But the strange part was that there was not a single cobweb in sight.

Caspian and the Pevensies travelled further down the table and looked at another one as they saw a table at the far end, possibly a much older table which had ivy run across it. Caspian investigated the plants when he saw three Lords sitting around the Table. "Wait!" He screamed as Tavros the minotaur general was about to help himself to an apple. "It's the food!"

"Hey." Susan said as she looked closely. "This is Aslan's Table." She had recognised the inscriptions.
