The Prodigal Queen

This piece is a fan-fiction based on the Chronicles of Narnia series by C. S. Lewis.

I always felt like Suzan's arc was never finished. After all, Once a king or queen of Narnia, always a king or queen of Narnia. She turned her gaze to the things of the world, pursuing her own flippant desires for a time, we know that from the original series. It's possible that, after the events of The Last Battle, she would have fallen into deeper vises. But, I don't think Aslan would have left her there. I think he would have let her follow her tangled heart for a while, but he would have finally stepped in, saying, "Enough's enough, my child."

So, this piece is the beginning of that. The start of the trials Aslan would have led Suzan through to show her how much she needs him, his strength, his love. I imagine what comes after this would be painful for her. But, like the prodigal son in the Bible, she would have come back, humbled and broken. And he would welcome her with open arms and much rejoicing.
