The ancient woods of Narnia stood silent, their magic drained away. After hours trudging through the dead forest, the Pevensie siblings stumbled upon a solitary figure. Tension erupted instantly. Peter, ever the hothead, lunged at the stranger—Prince Caspian—who met the attack with cold steel. A desperate skirmish broke out. Edmund shouted encouragement, Susan drew her bowstring taut, and Lucy watched in frozen terror. The fight ended only when Caspian, breathing hard, forced Peter onto the damp earth, his sword-edge resting against the older boy's throat. The air grew thick with peril as Caspian's gaze swept over the family, sweat tracing his jaw, his eyes flicking from the aimed arrow to the twins.
