ᅠ and other narnians, but also for the king that made the telmarine castle a much better place to live. besides, he also gets company from a beautiful queen who glows like the sun. his life is wonderful. ᅠ

ᅠ ﹙ not that he would say no ﹚. calen and his family now grow their crops and raise their livestock within the lands of the royal farms, and he comes and goes inside the castle to care not only for the horses, centaurs, minotaurs ᅠ

ᅠ calen may also remain in the positions he's comfortable with, but for all of this, he also will aid king caspian when necessary. this offer was not expected, and edmund wouldn't take no for an answer ᅠ

ᅠ the refusal only confirmed what king edmund believed, thus granting calen a new opportunity: his family would become part of the royal farm, and they shall not need to worry about rent or taxes for it. ᅠ

ᅠ calen refused. his life is on a farm surrounded by such lively animals. it would be hard to trade that for a life he knows is unfitting for him. a sword is not meant for his hands. ᅠ

ᅠ the kings and queens of old had remained, helping caspian——now king——build up trustworthy staff. it was king edmund who sought out calen, offering him a place inside the castle and as a knight of narnia. ᅠ

ᅠ after the war, calen was healed by queen lucy's cordial ﹙ he's no soldier, having many wounds ﹚ and turned a lot of his focus onto helping recover from it. when they returned to the kingdom, calen reunited with his family. ᅠ

ᅠ when the ambush happened, calen remained behind with lucy to prepare for any wounded to return. despite the losses, calen did not give up faith in his royals, especially caspian. ᅠ

ᅠ then they met the kings and queens of old, and calen shared all his knowledge with queen lucy. his determination to fight despite being a farm boy caught the attention of king edmund as well, who kept tabs on his loyalty. ᅠ

ᅠ after that, calen swore loyalty to the prince and began to work with the narnians on preparing themselves for battle. he made sure to work on creating medicine, mending wounds, etc. and was taught how to fight by many. ᅠ

ᅠ they discovered him on their patrol, to which he surrendered immediately as he was unarmed. the centaur declared they take him back to caspian, and it was there calen's relief grew. the prince was alive———hope existed. ᅠ

ᅠ when the sun came up, calen kept searching with exhaustion creeping in his bones and suddenly discovered creatures never seen by himself before: minotaurs and centaurs. ᅠ

ᅠ stealing a horse in the dead of night, calen fled into the forbidden woods with no way to protect himself, in hopes to discover what happened to the prince. he spent all night searching, unable to find anything. ᅠ

ᅠ the prince was not dead. narnians weren't extinct. miraz wanted to usurp the throne. once the stables cleared and night fell, calen decided to commit a huge risk in hopes to help save narnia from the corruption of miraz. ᅠ

ᅠ prince caspian, rightful heir to the throne——a good one, at that——went missing. eavesdropping while the confirmation of narnians happened right before him. it filled his gut with dread, horrifying knowledge and a newfound determination. ᅠ

ᅠ he held great expertise in veterinary medicine, taking great care of the horses used by the calvary and for regular riding. then, the morning after lord miraz became a father, calen overheard things in the stables. ᅠ

ᅠ tax grew which brought trouble upon calen's family, especially with the rent they would owe from their farmland. to aid with this, calen was able to land a spot within the kingdom's staff as a stable boy. ᅠ

ᅠ unfortunately, when news of the king's death reached the common folk, calen's family were hit rather hard with changes the acting regent put into place. with the prince not old enough, the late king's brother, miraz, took over. ᅠ

ᅠ calen was born ~1300 years after the golden age came to an end. his mother and father were farmers, tending to livestock and a large portion of crops for the telmarine kingdom under the rule of king caspian ix. ᅠ
