Since I have now answered both questions and got confirmation that Midge's one was answered correctly , I'll ask the next one.

How much are we told about the name of Caspian's wife?

(And to all fanficcers out there: No, it's NOT SUSAN PEVENSIE!!! )

*more mad faces at that stupid rumor!!!*

She is referred to as Ramandu's daughter, and the Queen...

I'm not so much mad at the film-makers - I find it quite possible that Caspian and Susan might have had a short, youthful crush on each other. Such crushes are common enough - I had a few myself at that age, some more short-lived than others.

But the fanficcers have no business to imply that this was anything more than something short-lived.

The books state very clearly that Susan never came back, and that Caspian's real, mature love interest - his chosen wife - was someone else.

... and that is all we are told about her identity, never her actual name.

Your turn!

What kind of flowers did Lucy shove in the faces of the Dwarves in an attempt to prove that they were actually outside and not in the stable and what did the Dwarves THINK she was shoving in their faces? (two answers for this one)

*bump*

Nobody knows??? I'll give bonus points for the type of flowers and just ask what the Dwarves thought was getting shoved in their faces.

Meanwhile, I'll shove something else in the face of the rule....

The flowers were violets.
I'm less sure what they thought they were - either thistles, or some half rotten grass or vegetables.

Edit:
Do we need a thread in the technical section to discuss the necessity of the rule?
Is there one already (I don't have the time to search right now ...)

I hate the rule. *pout*

The flowers WERE violets. I thought the dwarves perceived something else, but I remember them mentioning thistles. I'll check it when I get home, being unable to find the answer on the immediate internet.

Yes. The dwarf thought he was having something other than thistles shoved in his face.

No.. you're thinking of the things they thought they were eating at the feast Aslan laid for them. What else do you find in a stable?

... idiot... rule..... *pulls hair out of head*

I suppose that could be it. Now that I think of it... I'm not sure what Lewis means, exactly. I'll give it away. He says, "Stable Litter," which for some reason I was associating with donkey dung or something. Probably because of the phrase "kitty litter."

I know it wasn't "thistles" though, because the dwarf ejaculates that "there's a thistle in it!" I'll give it to you, Princess Varna!

Perhaps this is too easy - but never mind ...

Who were the first three Old Narnians that Prince Caspian met?
Give both names and races/species.

Oh. My turn. Right.

Who greeted the Friends of Narnia and Tirion and Jewel out of the Garden in The Last Battle?
