Daphne's body was laid to rest a few days before Caspian's coronation. Her body was stuck back at the How, under layers of dirt and grass, while her siblings attended the great celebration.
The new king was holding a gathering. The entire kingdom was present. All except Daphne whose body was stuck back at the How, under layers of dirt and grass.
The time had come. Peter and Susan knew it was time for them to return home.
It hurt so bad to leave Daphne behind. They had to think of how to tell their mother. They technically hadn't been away from that train station for more than a minute. How could you explain to a woman that her daughter is dead without a body and any sort of proof without sounding insane?
But, nevertheless, they had to leave. It was time.
The siblings walked through the opening in the tree, the sounds of gasps from the crowd quickly turning to steam hissing from the train. They had returned to the train station.
Five sets of luggage sat around the bench that sat on forever ago. Lucy stared at the case, not sure what to do with it.
"Edmund, grab my case, would you? Hurry up now!"
The four siblings turned quickly. Standing there, looking the same as she did before they appeared in Narnia, was Daphne, waiting on the train.
"Hurry up! It won't wait for you!" Edmund scrambled for Daphne's case while the other three clamber onto the train. Edmund quickly followed behind.
Peter, Edmund and Lucy were all smiles, happy for their sibling's return. Susan looked perplexed.
"You were dead," Susan whispered as the train dparted the station.
"That's a peculiar thing isn't it? Being dead and now being alive."
"What happened?" Peter asked.
"Who cares?" Lucy said, wrapping her arms around Daphne. The girl winced slightly.
"What is it?" Susan said, noticing the look. Daphne raises her shirt slightly. In her abdomen, where the arrow had struck her, was a pink scar.
"Still hurts a little bit."
"We're just glad you're back."
