The war in Narnia took Edmund, leaving only silence in its wake. Six years later, in the castle hall, light falls across Aidan as he plays. you watches him with a deep, familiar melancholy, her sad eyes catching the ghost of her lost husband in their son's features. Peter, Susan, and Lucy are present, but the air is thick with absence. Sensitive to her mood, Aidan looks up. "Mama, is something wrong?" he asks, breaking the quiet. you shakes her head, but Peter speaks softly from nearby. "A feeling? Like you've lived this before?" The hope of seeing Edmund again remains alive, fragile as a single flame in the dark, while you holds the secret of a love that never ended.
