"Though she be but little, she is fierce." - William Shakespeare
Narnia, 1002
Life as a monarch was pleasant. For six months, the children focused so much on Mrs Beaver's and Mr Tumnus' lessons. They had quickly matured, and they would grow more and more every day.
But only some things were perfect. Recently, several Narnians had come to the palace to report sightings of Calormenes, the people from Calormen, cutting down the trees of the western woods and taking the trunks back to their Kingdom.
Of course, they could not risk for those reports to be mere rumours, and so the Just King, the Valiant Queen and the Warrior Queen headed for the region and see for themselves if the sightings were indeed genuine.
In the morning, the three youngest monarchs walked towards the stables and hopped on their respective talking horses. Oreius had volunteered to go with, but Peter had requested the presence of the Centaur General in something which none of the three honestly cared to know.
With Edmund in charge of the "mission" due to him being the crowned protector of the Western woods, they were galloping to the exact location of the sightings.
" Would the Calormenes truly risk such an act? " Edmund voiced his thoughts.
" Well, it is a very callous action. " Lucy agreed hesitantly.
" But the Calormenes are callous people. " Olivia responded. " They believe themselves to be superior. If they wish to cut down our trees, they will, and with ferocity. If the rumours are to be true, then we must show the Tisroc of Calormen who is actually in charge. "
The Tisroc of Calormen was their ruler. They did not have Kings or Queens, but the Tisrocs, who went back in a long lineage of tyrants ruling and bringing ruin to their Kingdom. The Tisrocs had never gotten along well with the Narnians, with no one in reality, for they were cruel people with no allies or partners.
With their information about Calormen in mind, they were obviously scared the rumours were true because it was very much possible due to their reputation.
Edmund was about to say something else when Lucy cut him off, shushing her brother. The youngest pointed to her ear and then to her north. Lucy was getting sharper with each passing day; she was becoming very wise and quick on her feet, great traits in a soldier.
Edmund nodded with his head and a point to his eye, looking beyond the woods. He nodded to the hilt of his sword and made a gesture of cutting down, meaning he was listening to the metal hitting the wood and bringing the trees down.
Olivia nodded at the Pevensie's signals and made her own for them to disperse, Edmund to go to the left, Lucy in the middle, and herself on the right, already with a scheme turning in her mind. With a nod, the trio moved to their positions.
