Wow. That's pretty good. Why can't I see those connections at first? Now that you mentioned it, it makes sense. It has to be one of the two.

It is Digory, and for the reason you stated. All the others had lost their mothers, while Digory's mother was close to death but was healed. Well done! I thought that was quite a tough one.

It is about their alternative names and their deeds, what they are known to do. I don't think I can say so much more (then it would be to easy).

Well, Jadis is also known as the White Witch (as well as styling herself the Queen of Narnia, Chateleine of Cair Paravel and Empress of the Lone Islands).
Uncle Andrew is also known as Mr Ketterley.
Caspian the Tenth is also known as Caspian the Seafarer and Caspian the Navigator.
Rabadash the Ridiculous is also known as Radadash the Peacemaker.

Is that what you mean by their alternative names? Beyond Uncle Andrew not having a 'the' in his name (is that too obvious?), I'm still struggling.

You're getting closer. The White Witch was the name I was after, and Caspian the Seafarer and Rabadash the ridiculos. Think about Andrews alternative name now (I recomend the beginning of MN :p) and then you can see who is the odd one from what you then have. Hope that helps!

Ok, so Uncle Andrew calls himself the great scholar, the magician, the adept, whereas the other three have names applied to them by others that they themselves did not use. So Uncle Andrew is the odd one out. Yes?

Yeah! Correct! Andrew is the odd one because he appointed himself the magician, while the Witch and Caspian was given their names from the narnian people, and Rabadash by Narnians and Archenlanders. And the clue with the beggining of MN is the front, That book actually refers to the name: The Magician! Well done Peeps! ;)

(a) Valiant
(b) Great
(c) Peacemaker
(d) Gentle

Missed this one. Peacemaker is the only name not given to one of the Pevensies. It was, instead, an unearned name given to Rabadash as everyone else called him "the Ridculous."

#25.
(a) Mr Beaver
(b) Puddleglum
(c) The Sea People
(d) Arsheesh

Maybe it has to do with aiding children in the Chronicles?
[a] Mr. Beaver guided the Pevensies to Aslan,
Puddleglum supported Jill and Eustace on their quest for Prince Rilian, and
[d] Arsheesh took Shasta in after Aslan pushed the boat in which the infant lay near to death.

However, although the Sea People did not hurt Lucy or anyone else on the Dawn Treader, their intentions were not friendly.

#24.
(a) “One who has waited long for you to speak.”
(b) “That you have, that you have. No-one couldn’t have left it out cleaner and better.”
(c) “What make you here, creatures of the Overworld?”
(d) “Can’t you see the sky and the trees and the flowers? Can’t you see me?

The common thread in A, C, D is the unexpected unseen Voice challenging or confronting someone else:
(a) Aslan, as the Unseen Voice on the pass from Anvard to Narnia challenges Shasta's pity party;
(b) the Warden of the Underland catches Jill, Eustace and Puddleglum unawares with his "pitch-black" voice challenging them in the darkness;
(d) Lucy, unseen to the self-absorbed dwarves who believe themselves to be in a dark filthy stable, tries to reason with them but they refuse to be "taken in" to the Truth of her unseen voice.

In contrast, the invisible Dufflepuds are in complete agreement with their invisible leader, habitually parroting back his ideas in unison.

tame lion is repetead, so i guess that (c) is the odd one because it is only mentioned once?

Great job, Trufflehunter! And to add to your observation, the reason Aslan's sign to Jill about the ruined city of the giants is related to these other repeated phrases is that although those specific words only occur once, Jill was supposed to repeat it over and over to herself every day.

Yay! I got it in the end. That was a tough one (now I know how you guys feel when you're trying to crack mine! ;))

Yes - "the Great" is not actually one of the Pevensies, it is the title of Ram the Great, son of Cor and Aravis. But "Peacemaker" is the odd one out because, while Rabadash was called that to his face and in his lifetime, behind his back and in the history books he went down as "Rabadash the Ridiculous".

I like the thinking, but Arsheesh then wouldn't be guiding Shasta as such. In any case, it's not what I had in mind. Clue: food.

You've taken it a level further than I had in mind! You're right that the connection between all four is that the speaker is invisible to the hearer. The precise thing that is said is not important to the odd-one-out that I had in mind.

Peeps
 
These are the four that remain unsolved. I don't think anyone's had a go at #16 yet.

#15.
(a) The White Witch’s house
(b) The Stone Table
(c) The stable in The Last Battle
(d) The Garden with the Tree of Youth in it

#16.
(a) Susan and Lucy
(b) Arsheesh
(c) Lucy
(d) Tirian, Eustace and Jill

#24.
(a) “One who has waited long for you to speak.”
(b) “That you have, that you have. No-one couldn’t have left it out cleaner and better.”
(c) “What make you here, creatures of the Overworld?”
(d) “Can’t you see the sky and the trees and the flowers? Can’t you see me?

I'll have a go at this one.

B because they are the only speakers who are actually invisible. In all the others the speaker can't be seen for some other reason, in A Aslan is hidden by the mist, in C the Warden is speaking in the dark of underworld and in D the Dwarfs imagine they are in a dark stable

haha :D good work!


Hey! :eek: I also said peacemaker was the odd one becuase that wasn't a name to the pevensie, but I got wrong, while MrBob got right!? :confused:
