The queen to the just Edmund Pevensie story 2

The professor

I shared a glance with Edmund before stepping inside of the odd mansion, I could tell he was also weary of the building that seemed to have appeared from out of no where, but there was something that this man knew and I needed to find out what.

Inside of the mansion it had a dark eerie feeling to it. The walls and floor consisted of browns and the chandeliers barely let of any light, making it feel almost tunnel like.I followed closely behind Edmund feeling more safer having him nearby. Every now and then I could see the corner of his eye as he checked to make sure you was still behind him.

"Why did you turn those creatures invisible?" Lucy asked.

"To protect them from the evil!" The sorcerer simply replied.

"You mean the mist?" Edmund asked

"I mean what lays behind the mist!"

I shared another concerned look with Edmund as we stepped out into the room at the end of the hallway.

Just like the hallway the room was rather dark the only source of light, being the few lit candles that sat around the room. Although the interior still wasn't the warmest, it was certainly a lot nicer then the dank hallway. The floor was a dark green that had swirled golden patterns leading to the centre of the room. Along with the floor the walls were also a dark green, finished off with a smooth golden trim and golden shelves; that sat as low as the floor and reached as high as the ceiling. Every shelf was filled with a variety of books all different, shapes, sizes and colours. Any books that didn't fit on the shelf's seemed to be floating above our heads, making me step back slightly when one silently floated over the top of my head, worried that it may sudden fall. On the second floor of the large room, purple and blue clouds of stars also seemed to float around the room, making you think it was dark out.

My head turned from the astonishing sight as I heard, the sound of parchment being unrolled. The map took up almost the whole room, leaving little space for everyone to stand. Around the edge showed the story of the kings and queens fighting the white witch, playing its self as if you was stood there when it happened. In the centre of the map, islands seemed to grow out of the rippling blue like ocean, and clouds formed over the top.
"It's kind of beautiful isn't it?" Estanuce spoke to no one in particular. "I mean for a make believe map, with make believe lands." He quickly continued as everyone turned there attention to him.

"There is the source of your troubles." The sorcerer spoke, drawing everyone's attention once more to the map. The map now seem to zone in on its self showing one island in particular. It wasn't like the other island this one had a dark mist that seemed to cover it, almost circling it, to stop anyone for entering... or leaving. It gave me a chilling feeling, even just seeing it like this on a map; I could almost feel the sparks of electric run through me as green like lighting seemed to strike within it.

"Dark island. A place were evil lurks, it can take any form." The sorcerer spoke now stepping even closer to Edmund, "It can make your darkest dreams come true. Looking at Edmund I could tell what he was thinking about the white witch. The one fear that never seemed to leave him, was the fear of her return; however he had stopped her return once and therefore could do it again. The sorcerer continued once again now stepping towards you, "It seeks to krupt all goodness, to steal the light from this world."

"How do we stop it?" Lucy asked now stepping forward, looking more determined then ever.

"You must break it's spell. That sword you carry..." The sorcerer pointing towards Edmunds sword,"There are six others."
"Have you seen them?" Edmund asked

"Yes!"

"The six lords did they pass through here?" I quickly spoke hoping that I was still on the right track to finding what we came for.

"Yes"

"Well, where were they heading?" I pushed

"Where I sent them. To break the spell, you must follow the blue star, to Ramandu's island; there the seven swords must be laid at aslan's table. Only then can there true magical power be released. But beware your all about to be tested."

"Tested?" Lucy questioned

"Until you lay down the seventh sword, evil has the upper hand. It will do everything in it's power to tempt you, or even break you." His eyes moving to Lucy "Be strong," then moving to Edmund "Don't fall to temptation" It was like he was telling us what each of our tests would be, like he could already see it happening before his very eyes. "To defect the darkness out their you must defect the darkness inside your self." he now spoke to Caspian.

It was then that he turned to me" Be careful not to lose your self ... As you may lose someone close to you."
