These two Kings and two Queens governed Narnia well and long and happy was their reign... And they themselves grew and changed as the years passed over them...And Peter became a tall and deep chested man and a great warrior, and he was called King Peter the Magnificent. And Susan grew into a tall and gracious woman with black hair that fell almost to her feet... and she was called Queen Susan the Gentle. Edmund was a graver and quieter man than Peter, and great in council and judgement. He was called Edmund the Just. But as for Lucy, she was always gay and golden haired... and her own people called her Queen Lucy the Valiant.

We are not now that strength which in old days Moved earth and heaven, that which we are, we are; One equal temper of heroic hearts, Made weak by time and fate, but strong in will To strive, to seek, to find, and not to yield.
