Re: [thelionscall] Re: Prince Caspian location!!!

Of course Miraz doesn't really believe in Narnia's Golden Age and the existence of the four royals. It's all superstition to the Telmarines, isn't it? He was just egged on by his treacherous lieutenants to pay attention to Peter's claims. But if Caspian had been the one to challenge Miraz, even Glozell and Sopespian (??I know I have the names wrong) wouldn't have been able to persuade Miraz to accept the challenge.

Although Miraz's belief that Peter is the actual high king from the stories is rather doubtful.

Ah, I always interepreted that to mean that Miraz would accept a challenge from Peter because he was High King (despite his young age) whereas Caspian is Miraz' nephew and would be looked upon as a young upstart nothing. It's sort of similar to the way I view my young college relatives as kids (since I knew them as toddlers) whereas when I talk to college age students who aren't related to me, I see them as more adult, somehow. It's unfair, I know. (=

Aravis,

When Peter is planning to challenge Miraz to single-handed combat, he explains to Caspian that Miraz might accept a challenge from himself (Peter), but Miraz would reject a challenge from Caspian since he would be considered just a kid.

Blessings,
