Once, there were four children who stood at an underground train station. They had just returned from a land called Narnia but nobody around them was aware that they ever had left. The children thought that their adventure was over. After all, it was supposed to be for at least two of the children. They entered the train that arrived to go to two different schools. The sisters' train would go in one direction while the brothers' would go in the opposite.
That sounds like the end of a story, doesn't it? As a matter of fact, it was actually the beginning of one.
A warm breeze blew when Susan opened her window. It reminded her of the horseback rides through the Western Woods as the breeze blew her hair behind her. But that breeze was small, nothing more than a normal breeze. Just like the world she lived in was nothing more than a normal place for people to live normal lives.
She had moved to America with her parents for a couple weeks. It had been about as much fun as you could get from an adventure there. America had been pleasing to the eye, but nothing nearly as beautiful as the sights she had seen in Narnia. The reminders of Narnia reminded Susan of her siblings.

"Good day to you!" The postman tipped his hat to Lucy.
"Good day, Mr. Harrison." She said excitedly. "Do you have any letters for me?" She asked, her voice full of hope.
"Ah, yes. I do in fact! Here you go." He said with a smile as he handed Lucy a bundle of letters.
"Thank you!" Lucy squealed when she found the letter from Susan among the others. She placed her uncle and aunt's letters by the dining table and rushed to find Edmund. "Edmund, look!" She called out to him as she held the letter up to show it to Edmund, who stood halfway up the stairs trying to chase their cousin Eustace. "It's from Susan!"
Edmund knew how important the letter was to his little sister. They rushed to her room but before stepping inside, he glanced sourly across the hall at his room. Well, his and Eustace's room.
Lucy opened the letter while her brother paced the room. He stopped when his eye caught the painting on her bedroom wall. It was a painting of ocean waves and a ship at a distance. The painting was beautiful.
Lucy read the letter out loud to him:
