Adventure in NARNIA (61)

Edmund felt a sensation of mysterious horror.

Peter felt suddenly brave and adventurous.

Susan felt as if some delicious smell or some delightful strain o music had just floated by her.

And Lucy got the feeling you have when you wake up in the morning and realize that it is the beginning of the holidays or the beginning of summer.

" And what about Mr Tumnus, " said Lucy; " Where is he ? "

" S-s-s-sh, " said the Beaver, " not here. I must bring you where we can have a real talk and also dinner. "

No one except Edmund felt any difficulty about trusting the Beaver now, and everyone, including Edmund, was very glad to hear the word " dinner ".

They therefore all hurried along behind their new friend who led them at a surprisingly quick pace, and always in the thickest parts of the forest, for over an hour.

Everyone was feeling very tired and very hungry when suddenly the trees began to get thinner in front of them and the ground to fall steeply downhill.

A minute later they came out under the open sky ( the sun was still shining ) and found themselves looking down on a fine sight.
