{3} The Last Protector {Voyage of The Dawn Treader}

Ramandu's and Dark Islands

{Silver's POV}

I walked along with the others and I held Loyalty in one hand and the new sword in my other hand, as Edmund and I led the way.

We found the lords still breathing.

"Lord Revilian." Caspian said.

I shook my head at this.

"Lord Mavramorn." Caspian said.

"Lord Argoz." He finally said.

"They're under a spell!" Edmund said.

"It's the food!" Caspian shouted, and we all threw the food away from us all quickly.

"Hey! It's the stone knife! This is Aslan's table!" Edmund said. "The swords."

I said, and I unsheathed the one I carried and put it on the table quickly and Edmund did the same, and so did Caspian.

"They must still have their swords." I said, and Edmund looked at me and it was a mad dash for the swords.

One after another, until the swords numbered six, and we were still one short, and I saw them glowing blue.

"Look!" Lucy said, and I looked up with her, as the Blue Star came down and landed in front of us.

I saw that she was in the shape of a woman. I saw that Caspian looked in a complete trance, while Edmund was on his way, before Lucy pinched him.

"Travelers of Narnia... welcome." She said, and we all went down kneeling.

"Arise." She said, and looked around at all of us. "Are you not hungry?" She asked, and I looked at Edmund, and kicked him in the shin.

"Who are you?" He asked, and I kicked him again, but he was either ignoring me, or didn't care to.

"I'm Liliandil, daughter of Ramandu. I am your guide." Liliandil said, as Lucy rolled her eyes at Edmund.

"You're a star."

Caspian said and I quietly grumbled under my breath, as both Caspian and Edmund continued to stare at her.

"You are most beautiful." Caspian said, and I mimed vomiting, and Lucy almost choked on laughter.

"If it is a distraction to you, I can change form." Lilandil said, and I looked at Lucy. "Yes please."

Lucy and I said, while the boys naturally opposed. "No!" Edmund and Caspian both said.

"Please. The food is for you." Lilandil said and the candles lit up quickly by a wave of her hands.

"There is enough for all who are welcome at Aslan's table." Liliandil said.

"Wait." Edmund said and I looked at him hoping he was finally going to a good question.

"What happened to them?" I heard him say, and I looked at Liliandil for the answer.

"These poor men were half-mad by the time they reached out upon our shores. They were, threatening, of a violence upon each other."

Liliandil said.

"Violence is forbidden at the table of Aslan. So they were sent to sleep for a good few years." Liliandil said.

"Will they ever wake?" Lucy asked, and Liliandil looked at her. "When all is put right. Now. Come. For there is a little time." The star said.

I followed the boys quickly, with a certain Lucy now just behind me, as well.

"The magician, great Coriakin told you all of Dark Island?" Liliandil said to all of us. "Yes." I said, before either of the boys could answer.
