— A little exercise is good for the soul || Edmund and Rose

Edmund seemed surprised by Rose’s comment about King Peter and Alyssa, how could he be? She didn’t know how much he knew and couldn’t be sure of whether Peter and Alyssa wanted everyone to know everything. She did only because she was friends with them both. “I’ve just heard that they have had to lay low recently for unknown reasons. Most likely I would think for their safety.” Rose was not lying, nor was she telling the entire story. It wasn’t her place. “Yes the stars see much more from above than we do, it gives such an advantage. But the stars are not generally likely to come down here and assist those in trouble unless they feel so strongly about it. They come around to warn people, but not usually to partake in battle.” She would know. Rose had seen quite a bit and had never partaken herself in violence. But she had come down from the sky to deliver warnings to those in need. “Yes I do know Lilliandil and Rafael, they are quite lovely and were ever-so-welcoming when I arrived. Everyone here seems to know them, which isn’t surprising being how friendly they are.” She smiled and looked closely into Edmund’s face. There was something so mysterious about him that she couldn’t place….
Edmund didn’t want to talk about his older brother’s relationship, so he didn’t reply her. He just pretended she said nothing and looked away.
The boy licked his lips and smiled. “But you came for the war, right?I mean, you came to fight, right? You will help Narnia, won’t you?” He asked the many questions, staring her with his dark eyes.
The talk about Lilliandil and Rafael made the memories from their wedding come to his mind. How, with all the respect, Lilliandil was so beautiful that day. The food was delicious but, like always, Edmund didn’t really enjoy the party. The Just King is not a party boy kind. “I think everyone know them mostly because of their wedding party.” Edmund said with a laugh. “Actually I met Lilliandil first, at Ramandu’s island, then she came here to Cair and became our guest. Some days later I found a man lost in the woods searching for her. This man was Rafael and would be her husband. Did you know that they have kids already? If I’m not wrong they have two or three.”
