Chapter Text
Dear Edmund,
Hello! Lucy has been teaching me Narnian, and she thought it would be good practice for me to write my letters to you in Narnian rather than telmarine. I've been learning for quite some time now to tell you the truth, I wanted to surprise you, but now that you will be required in Galma and Teribinthia before returning to Narnia from Archenland, I decided I could not wait any longer. I am not fluent yet, so please forgive any mistakes.
How is Archenland? I hope it's treating you well, I really do appreciate you helping to repair trust with the rest of the world. I feel if I or one of the lords went it would not go very well, the other countries never trusted Telmar after they invaded Narnia, and the little bit of foreign relations that remained were destroyed when Miraz took control, so it's good we sent you. You are a very good, eh how do you say it in narnian? Let me ask Lucy. Politician, that's it! I had Lucy write it in for me, she has very good handwriting you know.
I regret to say that the day before you are to return I am needed in Calormen, so I will not be able to see you. I wish that one day we will have repaired the damage of my ancestors enough to be at liberty to spend some time together, just a week with no interruptions, I dare say we are being conspired against what with how little we have seen each other as of late. I really do miss you.
As of two days ago, I am 20 years old. I honestly don't feel any different than I did a month ago, but I suppose I have been too busy to actually notice a difference. I believe I will be back by your birthday, so maybe we can celebrate together. You will be 19 yes? That is very exciting. Ah regretfully I have a meeting I must get to, so I will have to cut it short.
Your friend,
Caspian
