Cold, dark water swallows you as you fight for air, the memory of the torn painting still vivid behind your eyes. A ship cuts through the waves toward you, its sails a deep, royal purple against the grey sky. Figures leap from its deck—splashes mark where Edmund, Eustace, and Lucy are being hauled to safety. Then a strong arm locks around your waist, pulling you back against a solid chest. You twist, gasping, and find Caspian treading water beside you, his brown eyes holding yours. "Easy," he murmurs, his voice a calm anchor in the churning sea. "I have you. You're safe now."
