The lion, the sorceress and the wardrobe (ROTBTD chronicles)

Once A King Or Queen Of Narnia, Always A King Or Queen

When the battle ended, some dark creatures escaped to the northern highlands never to be seen again, while those left who sought forgiveness and redemption attained it, following Simba through the paths of truth and peace. Rapunzel was occupied by healing the wounded with her magical potion, while the rest helped around as much as they could. By midnight, every creature was healed and cleaned, and all reunited around the stone table to have a merry feast, celebrating at last the end of the dark ages. Elsa knew this was to be one of the last nights she would spend in Narnia, because although she had redeemed herself, winning one battle was not enough to make amends for a hundred years of winter.

The former queen had been thinking of sailing across the eastern seas in search for Mufasa's and Simba's land, a mythical place far across the edge of the world in which the sun slept through the night, and creatures nurtured themselves with the Star's light and magic. She and her sister had heard stories of how The Great Lion was a descendant of the Sun in person, and that all those who resided in the eastern World were children of the stars. Although all her life she had thought of it as just a legend, finding Simba, son of the Emperor Beyond the Seas, and witnessing with her own eyes how four human children crossed her country made her rethink her beliefs, and, if she were to find this legendary land, all her sins would be forgiven and her legacy would be set in a different stone.

By the next day, the four children, the great lion, the snow sorceress and all other friends walked calmly to the far east coast of the country of Narnia, where the magnificent palace of Cair Paravel sat. It had been abandoned for ages, but it was so full of magic, that even after a hundred years of solitude, the castle stood as beautiful and marvelous as it had always been. It was said that the two sister Queens used to live there, where they ruled with love and wisdom. Now that the new royalty was on their way, the magical castle recognized its rightful rulers and two new thrones appeared. Hiccup sighed, amazed by all the towers and glistening windows that greeted him with whimsical joy. Jack, even if he was still tired because of the events the prior day, felt as if all his worries dissolved at the sight of his soon to be home. All walked in, in a cheerful parade and made their way into the throne room. 

Some creatures had made their way to the castle during the night, to ensure that the coronation ceremony would take place by the most beautiful of Narnian traditions. The dwarves had forged four delightful crowns with the most precious of metals and jewels in Narnia's underground. Mr. Rider had reunited with all the un-statued fauns and they had settled a musical number with their flutes and bandolines, just for the ocassion. The faeries had made their best to craft dazzling attires for each of the kids, and at long last they came, enlightning the castle and all those who came with.

Each of the kids stood in front of a throne, followed closely by Simba. Bernard and Bianca each carried two cushions with a crown in them. Flynn Rider, the faun and their first friend, was the one who got to crown them. In a matter of months, these four children, who used to be outcasts, stolen from their families and sent to live horrors of all sorts, had become marvelous people and they would only continue to grow.

"To the glistening seas of the east, I give you, Queen Merida, the Valiant" Said Simba, as Flynn placed an intricate golden tiara atop her wild fiery curls.

"To the whispering woods of the west, I give you, King Jack, the Just" Simba proclaimed, followed by the faun crowining him with a silver ring that looked both humble and powerful and made his snow-white hair glisten like winter skies.

"To the radiant southern deserts, I give you, Queen Rapunzel, the Gentle" Said the Great Lion, looking proudly at how Flynn placed her own silver tiara over Rapunzel's golden hairs. The faun had to resist the urge to hug his now queen, for the love and admiration he felt towards the girl could not go unnoticed.

"And to the clear northern sky, I give you, King Hiccup, the Magnificent." Finished Simba. Lastly, the faun placed the golden crown on the brown-haired kid's head, winking at him.

Toothless, the night fury, who had been watching excitedly from the balcony, rushed to his friend and licked him lovingly, earning a few giggles form the otherwise solemn crowd. Even Simba smiled at the sight of such a close friendship, and then composed to finish his speech.

"May the stars guide you through a path of honor and glory" he said.

"Long live Queen Merida" replied the crowd. "long live King Jack, long live Queen Rapunzel, long live King Hiccup!"

Narnia rejoiced, as their kings and queens took seat on the thrones, knowing an era full of joy and prosperity was soon to come.

The celebration lasted days, as more and more of the creatures who hadn't been on battle came to the castle to meet their rulers. The fauns danced and the faeries sung, all knowing that their land was safe in the hands of the most magnificent of royals.

Rapunzel and Flynn witnessed from a balcony how Simba and Elsa walked along the beach, knowing they were leaving.

"I wish they could stay" sighed the blonde queen.

"I know", said the faun, placing his arm around his friend, "but Simba isn't a tame lion, and Elsa is about to find adventures that not even the bravest dare to imagine."

To the moment joined the rest of the siblings, watching how Elsa and Simba disappeared into the ocean like the sun setting in the horizon. All smiled, because although they knew they would miss their friends, their own adventures were going to be just as magical and epic as the ones beyond the seas. For the first time, the four of them looked at each other certain that the future held wonders untold.
