The crisp air of the training ground filled with the rhythmic clash of steel. Edmund Pevensie, now nineteen, parried a strike from his brother Peter before spinning toward a weathered log. There, eighteen-year-old you sat, engrossed in a book, a stark contrast to the martial chaos. Edmund discarded his sword, the metal clattering against the grass, and strode over with an uncharacteristic, bright energy. He reached down, plucking the book from you's hands and setting it aside with a playful grin, his usual aversion to touch forgotten in the warmth of their decade-long bond.
