《Telmarines// Edmund Pevensie (#Wattys2016)》Chapter 23 Lucy
Advertisement
The next day, news had come back from one of the Narnian guards that a Telmarine had been watching from the entrance to the woods.
Peter had gathered a meeting, and me and Rose were sat on the stone table, whilst everyone else gathered.
" It's only a matter of time, Miraz's men and war machines are on their way! That means those same men aren't protecting his castle!" Peter seemed to be getting on to something. But I couldn't stop referring to Aslan. I DID see him, and he definitely will be coming back, I know it. Rose seems to believe me, she might never have met Aslan before, but she says the stories she hears sound so real to her that she can feel it too.
" What do you propose we do, your majesty?" Reepicheep said (I learnt his name), standing forward from his mini army of mice.
" dzkjhszdjeszkjdcsk" That's all I heard anyway, because Caspian and Peter said two different thing at the same time.
" One at time, gees" Rose said, obviously annoyed with this competitive battle going on.
Caspian seemed to look a bit down as he let Peter carry on.
" Our only hope is to strike them before they strike us!" Peter finished just about.
" But that's crazy no one has ever taken that castle!" Caspian confronted as if worried.
" There's always a first time!" Peter said, his arms lifting up in an I-don't know gesture.
" We'll have the omen of surprise!" Trumpkin said, from the right side of me.
" But we have the advantage here!" Caspian argued.
" If we dig in, we could probably hold them off indefinitely" Susan said , from behind Caspian.
" I for one feel safer underground..." Trufflehunter retorted, next to Edmund.

" Look, I appreciate what you've done here, but this isn't a fortress it's a tomb" Peter exclaimed to Caspian, with no sense of backing down.
" Yes, and if their smart the Telmarines will just wait and starve us out!" Edmund stood up, supporting....now which side was it he was on??????
" We can always collect nuts?!?!" A squirrel next to Reepicheep said, which made me laugh a little.
"Yes, and throw them at the Telmarines! Shut up! Reepicheep enthused sarcastically.
" I think you know where I stand sire..." Reepicheep continued, after having a very funny go at the squirrel.
" If I gather your troops in, can you handle the guards?" Peter asked the main centaur.
Everyone anxiously awaited his reply.
" I shall try, my liege" He answered.
" That's what I am worried about..." I said, not being able to contain myself much longer.
" Well your acting like there is only two options- dying here or dying there!" I continued after a confused expression from Peter.
" Your not listening, Lu?" Peter claimed.
" No your not listening!" Rose said next to me, supporting my argument, she knew where I was coming.
" Or have you forgotten who really defeated the white witch, Peter..." I said sadly.
" I think we have waited for Aslan long enough" Peter turned abruptly away from me.
Sometimes I think Peter doesn't understand...

8 176Yin-Yang
Mages in North America seem to have it all – typically from well-off families, and able to manipulate their environment in ways most of the world would never believe. They don’t even have to bother with the mundane details of life like housework, thanks to their sensitives, who also make a useful source for extra magical energy. After all, sensitives have no use for it themselves, and if mages weren’t meant to make use of it, then the sensitives would obviously have some way to prevent that. That a mage can transform a sensitive physically, with no restrictions beyond overall mass and basic biological viability, whereas magic tends not to work directly on any other living thing, is only further proof. And look at the way they live on their own, barely a step above animals. It’s better for them to belong to a mage. Sensitives in North America live on the edge of society and survival – typically so paranoid they avoid hospitals and anything else that could lead to being tracked, many of them with little or no education and no legal identity or existence. Mages exist, and mages want sensitives for some reason, but no one ever comes back to explain what that reason is. Waiting every day for the hunters to notice them doesn’t lead to much motivation or hope for the future. And once they’re captured, they’re the property of someone with a terrifying amount of power over them. Anything is better than capture. Mages are born to be the masters, and sensitives are born victims. Or are they? Jax’s life is turned upside-down when he’s caught by the hunters and sold to a mage. Andreas is still mourning for his previous sensitive, though, unconsciously creating a difficult standard for Jax to live up to, all the more so while still struggling to come to terms with this new reality as Andreas’ sensitive. A runaway sensitive isn’t what Van expects at the mental health centre. Is this a hunter trap, set for him and the rest of the Donovan family by the hunters? The hunters would, after all, love to see them cross the line openly and finally do something they can be charged with. Either way, Miranda’s genuinely in trouble, and he can’t just abandon her to it. Snatching a sensitive out from under the hunters and hiding her is odd behaviour for a mage – but then, Catherine is an odd mage, living in disgrace in the old servants’ quarters of her grandmother’s house, responsible for cooking and housework. Lila owes Catherine her freedom; is there a way to help Catherine achieve her own, and at what price? Tension is building between traditionally-minded mages and those advocating change, and something has to break. *** Yin-Yang includes a small amount of profanity and no graphic sex or on-screen physical violence. However, sex and gender roles and relationships within the mage/sensitive subculture are non-traditional in mainstream North American terms. The key criterion in a primary relationship is not relative sex or gender, but the pairing of mage and sensitive; given the transformation of sensitives by their mages, physical sex is non-absolute for a sensitive, and gender identity can vary as in anyone else. *** *** The way mages treat sensitives is extremely varied and, in some cases is outright abusive. The struggle against that is pretty much the point of the book. It is NOT grimdark or misery-porn! However, if you will be triggered by this, please, don't read Yin-Yang! *** Complete stand-alone novel, 153K words! Also available on Scribble Hub and as a free ebook.
