Adventure in NARNIA (53)

" A lot we could do ! " said Edmund, " when we haven't even got anything to eat ! "

" Shut up ー you ! " said Peter, who was still very angry with Edmund.
" What do you think, Susan ? "

" I've horrid feeling that Lu is right, " said Susan. 
" I don't want to go a step further and I wish we'd never come. But I think we must try to do something for Mr Whatever-his -name is ー I mean the Faun. "

" That's what I feel too, " said Peter.
" I'm worried about having no food with us. I'd vote for going back and getting something from the larder, only there doesn't seem to be any certainly of getting into this country again when once you've got out of it. I think we'll have to go on. "

" So do I, " said both the girls.

" If only we knew where the poor chap was imprisoned ! " said Peter. 

They were all still wondering what to do next, when Lucy said, " Look ! There's a robin, with such a red breast. It's the first bird I've seen here. I say ー I wonder, can birds talk in Narnia ? It almost looks as if it wanted to say something to us. "

Then she turned to the Robin and said, " Please, can you tell us where Tumnus the Faun has been taken to ? "
