[The Chronicles of Narnia] Sin
Chapter 53
Today is a spring day in 1015 of the Narnia era, and it is also the 15th anniversary of the No.15 anniversary of the four Pevensies ascending the throne of Cair Paravel. The [-] years seem to be fleeting, and we are no longer the childish and innocent appearance when we first entered the lamppost wild forest.
The beavers are old and have a group of bouncing and chattering babies; Mr. Tumnus's beard has grown longer, and he is familiar with the complicated internal affairs of the castle. Sheep; even Lucy, the youngest among us, is 23 years old, and those proper terms related to finance, military and politics, as well as high-sounding official words come out of his mouth.
Susan said that I have changed the most.Although I don't feel it much myself, seeing Pete and Lucy's silent approval, maybe she is right.
Looking back on the past 15 years now, I can hardly believe that with my personality, I would fall into such a dedicated relationship in that only year.Edith—it's been a long time since that name was mentioned in front of me.
In the first year after she left, Lucy and I, and many of her friends in the intelligence agency, had a hard time getting over such a sudden parting; Start writing to her.I think those words can be kept in my mind and told to her when she comes back.But later, I found that I wanted to say too much to her, and even my extremely clever mind couldn't write them all down, so I had to pick up a pen under Lucy's persuasion.
I used to hate reading those strange verses with lyricism and exclamation marks one after another, and I couldn't understand those lunatics who burst into tears and laughed.When I was in London, I was at the bottom of the class in poetry and drama class, and I was deeply proud of it-I think only rationality, only calm thinking, is really useful to people.Now, although I still don't like those sentences, and I can't write any sensational letters, I gradually understand the origin of those words.
My letters to Edith are always very simple. Although they may not be infrequent, they are like a diary, full of trivial matters about the operation of Narnia and my relatives and friends around me.I have not included confidential information because I am afraid that the security of these letters in my palace is not absolutely guaranteed.
As of today, there are exactly two hundred letters in the carton.I think I will write less and less in the future, because everyone wants me to move on, and I think so too.
Last May, Cair Paravel came with Lord Galmar and his daughter.The little girl is sixteen or seventeen years old, she has just grown up, and seems to be very interested in me.Peter and Susan hinted to me to seize the opportunity, and I said that it is better for a 24-year-old uncle like myself who has no romantic cells to spoil the little girl.
"I think you are determined to spoil Itdie alone..." After more than five years, Lucy dared to mention her again for the first time.
There is no bitterness in my heart anymore, and I can even tease it calmly: "There is no need to spoil her," I said with a smile, "She is as rough and straightforward as I am."
The relationship between Edith and I is not like a standard love, it is like hot water heated to 80 degrees, it is difficult to come to a boil.We are all rational people who always put many things ahead of personal feelings, and this is also a natural quality of being a soldier.I am glad that we are such people, I am glad that I have met her who is interesting and similar, and I am glad that we may each have a different future.

Excerpts from King Justice's letter:
1009. 1, 1
In the new year, I replaced the chess set in the intelligence office because it was short of pieces.The new chessboard and chess pieces are made of wood, so they can be played casually without fear of bumps.Do you have an opponent in another world that you can fight?All I have left is Peter, but he's busier than me.
1009. 3, 12
"Qiu Shui" and "Compass" have finally been officially canonized, and I should call you "Your Excellency the Knight" from now on.From now on, every time you make fun of me and call me "Your Majesty", I will have something to say back.
1009. 4, 5
After another birthday, I went to Lieutenant Colonel Mona to have a few drinks last night.I think she is the only person around me who is in a worse mood than me, so I confide in her, so I don't have to worry about bringing more negative effects on her.I'm actually not a very good drinker, not as good as Peter and Susan, not even the grown-up Lucy.Then I got drunk and the situation had to turn into Mona spitting bitterness at me.I also saw El Annihilation with my own eyes... I don't know how to comfort her at all.If it were you, what would you say?Although you are similar in temperament to me, your EQ is still a little higher than mine, just like my IQ is slightly better.
1010. 2, 21
If Lucy hadn't told me, I hadn't found out that Friel and Saknur were in love.I'm always the last one to realize this.There is a big age difference between them, and so is the height difference!But werewolves live a long time, so in this way, they will be the same age in appearance in more than ten years, which is quite appropriate. "Blood Moon" always likes fighting girls, is it because he is afraid that he will accidentally slap ordinary girls to death when making out?
Isn't the werewolf girl bad?I really want to see their beauty.
1010. 4, 9
I received a belated birthday present.Ramanjo was captured by us.We can settle the old accounts of Miss Shui and others; especially Lucy - she can't wait for the journey time to escort him.
1010. 7, 18
Sharon and Elias have successfully raised their ranks today.Their little princess doesn't have a name yet, but she must be a beauty.But just thinking that when she grows up, she will come to Cair Paravel and call me "uncle"...is it weird?
1011. 9, 3
Susan turned down yet another excellent suitor, and gave me and Peter, the titular suitors, a slap in the face.
What kind of man does she want?Even in London, she really should be looking for a partner at her age.If she likes women, pretend I didn't say so.
1011. 12, 26
King Lune of Archenland and Prince Corin visit.The dark-eyed little one had a good time with Lady Stairup's daughter who spent Christmas with her at Cair Paravel.The girl's name was Dakota, she was a year and a half older than Colin, and she always kept Colin down when he was misbehaving.They often compete in archery at the training ground, and both of them are top-notch.I worry that in a few years when they grow up, Susan will lose her title of "No. [-] Archer".
1012. 7, 11
Things have changed recently.A female politician came to Telmar and wanted to persuade Peter to cooperate with them.When she was talking endlessly at the negotiating table, I noticed that Pete looked at her unusually.My dear old man is 25 years old, can he finally take the lead in solving personal problems?This female politician is really smart, but it's a pity that Lucy doesn't see her right.I guess if you were here, you wouldn't like being outnumbered in IQ either; you and Lucy are pretty similar in that regard.
1012 7 Month 25 Day:
Due to the combination of various conditions, the negotiations fell through.Just like this, I missed the person who was most likely to be my sister-in-law, and I felt a little regretful.But I have to say that Pete was right. This cooperation was twists and turns, and it didn't do much good for Narnia. The main purpose was to make a wedding dress for Telmar.
1014. 5, 14
Susan and I are going to visit Calormen.Sounds like a joke, doesn't it?A few years later the two countries, which had been at war with each other, began to talk of a friendly marriage in hypocrisy.Maybe there is too much pressure from the domestic people who are urging marriages. Susan seems to have seriously considered the possibility of a successful marriage this time.She's always been reserved--if there's any chance of this marriage being negotiated, then we can spend less time keeping an eye on Calormene.
We will leave for Tashbaan with Prince Rabadash tomorrow. This is indeed the first time for me to go to this country which is very different from Narnia.What kind of water and soil would breed such a group of people and their civilization?I'm still curious.
1014. 5, 18
I have some sympathy for Susan.After she finally becomes reluctantly interested in a man of the opposite sex, Rabadash reveals his extravagant and brutal side at an inopportune time.After she was about to flatly reject the marriage request, I realized that she was reluctant to let us go away unscathed.Crows are as black as the world, and so are these Calormene princes.I must seriously consider the means of getting the Narnians out of Tashbaan.
1014. 5, 20
Susan and I are sitting on the battleship "Brilliant Crystal" at the moment.We boarded the ship early on the grounds of preparing for the night banquet at sea, and successfully escaped the control of the Calormenes.But I'm afraid the feud isn't over yet.
From the letter sent by the seagull, I learned that the battle against the giants led by Peter to the north ended in a great victory.But unfortunately, Narnia has also lost many excellent fighters, including your old friend and one of the best executives of the Intelligence Agency, "Silver Gun" Amos.During the battle in the Shelibo Valley ten days ago, Pete was almost hit by a boulder pushed down by a giant, but it was Amos who pushed him away in time...
Maybe people always have to learn to say goodbye when they grow up, just like us five years ago.
