Adventure in NARNIA (55)

They had been traveling in this way for about half an hour, with the two girls in front, when Edmund said to Peter, " If you're not still too high and mighty to talk to me, I've something to say which you'd better listen to. "

" What is it ? " asked Peter.

" Hush ! Not so loud, " said Edmund, " there's no good frightening the girls. But have you realized what we're doing ? "

" What ? " said Peter, lowering his voice to a whisper.

" We're following a guide we know nothing about. How do we know which side that bird is on ?  Why shouldn't it be leading us into a trap ? "

" That's a nasty idea. Still ー a robin, you know. They're good birds in all the stories I've ever read. I'm sure a robin wouldn't be on the wrong side. "

" If it comes to that, which is the right side ? How do we know that the fauns are in the right and the Queen ( yes, I know we've been told she's a witch ) is in the wrong ? We don't really know anything about either. "

" The Faun saved Lucy. "

" He said he did, But how do we know ? And there's another thing too. Has anyone the least idea of the way home from here ? "

" Great Scott, " said Peter.
" I hadn't thought of that. "

And no chance od dinner either, " said Edmund.
