Ramandu chuckled. "What do you think constellations are, your majesty?"
He opened his mouth and then closed it again. He'd never thought of it that way before....
"Anyhow, yes we can. But not just for any whim. What do you need?" Ramandu smiled, eyes twinkling.
Peter leaned in and whispered his request.
"Well...not just for anyone...but maybe the High King is entitled to something of that sort..." he said with a wink. Relieved, Peter grinned back and sighed.
"Great! Tonight?" he asked eagerly.
"Goodness no, Sir. It'll need to be tomorrow night at the earliest."
Peter looked dejected.
"But it'll work." Ramandu added quickly. Peter smiled.
"Alright, well...thank you." Ramandu nodded and in a flash of blue light had disappeared. Contented, Peter limped out of the tent with a lighter heart than he had had in days.

"Good," I said. I couldn't stop thinking about what had happened tonight and the possibilities for the next few days.

"It's not so much that my head hurts. It's more what the voice said," I muttered.

"Caspian, what's the plan? I have unfortunately not been a very helpful part of this rescue mission so far, but that's changed. What's our plan of action?"
"Um...there kind of isn't one..." Caspian mumbled.
"Well, by all means then! Let's make one!" Peter walked over to Caspian and waited expectantly. With a sigh, Caspian followed Peter over to the seats on the opposite side of the fire and grabbed a stack of books. They sat down together, poring over the books and making strategical logistics comments to each other as they read.

"If you don't mind, what did it say?" I asked quietly.

I started to tear up just thinking about it. "Not here," I muttered.

I nodded. I picked up a book and started reading to help the guys figure out a plan.

Ed nudged Cam. "Oh, they've got it covered for now. C'mon." He pulled her, leading her to the other side of the tent to enjoy the view of the stars. He timidly grabbed her hand. He just wanted alone time.

I smiled at him and rested my head on his shoulder.

I layed down on the ground, wrapping the blanket around me tightly. I looked up at the stars and tried to fall asleep.

Peter casually glanced over at Lil, who was laying by the fire. He grinned absently, thinking about his plan. Then he looked back down at the book.

The starry night sky reminded me of when we were on the ship and on the nice nights we would all sleep up on the deck instead of down below. "It's like last time...when we were on the ship," I said quietly as I stared at the sky.

I closed my eyes and took a deep breath. I was going to force myself to fall asleep. It took a few minutes but eventually I fell asleep.

Slowly, the two boys' interjections decreased. Peter felt himself growing more and more tired. He rested his head on his hands. He slowly felt his blinks growing longer and shorter between. Finally, his eyes could stay open no more and, in a matter of seconds, he was fast asleep. Caspian was growing tired as well. He glanced over and found Peter fast asleep. Gratefully, Caspian laid his head down on his book and fell asleep almost immediately as well.
~ED~
"Well, almost.." he muttered absently.
