Thanks. Glad you liked it. I always wondered the kind of impact that Caspian's lack of a good father figure early on in his life might have had on him, and this seemed like another way of approaching the question.
Thanks for the welcome back, Copperfox. I'm glad to be back, too. I had fun studying abroad for three weeks, but I did miss my Internet connection. I'm excited about the new Narnian contest. Sounds awesome.
