ooc- LOL!
Okay, here we go: IOWW meets Aslan, part 1
And, ACTION!
ic-
IOWW found she was no longer with the Pevensie’s. Instead, she was sitting, quite alone, on the stone table. Except, the table was not in a cave like she remembered, it was on top a great hill. From which, she could see all of Narnia. All the way from the darkened Cair, to the smoke of the busy Rangers camp.
“Where-Why am I here?” She asked out loud. “ I need to go--I need to get back to the pirates! Fyn, Lu! Fish, Machia, Emmy! The Cap’n!” As much as she wanted to run to the Rangers camp, something was holding her back. Then, she saw him. It was Aslan. He walked, it seemed, on thin air towards IOWW. Light seemed to radiate from him as he stopped before her.
“Hello my child.” His voice was deep and strong, but calming as well.
“Oh, Aslan!” IOWW fell to her knees,” I can’t believe it’s you!”
“Yes, yes…It is me.” Aslan chuckled a bit.
“Aslan, please, could you tell me what’s going on? I need to get back to my family-” A tear rolled down IOWW’s cheek,” they need me. And I need them! I can’t leave them now…”
“I know,“ Aslan nodded.
“Do you remember the first time we met, IOWW?”
” It was back when us pirates tried to take over Narnia…” She replied after a moment.
“That it was.” Aslan walked closer to IOWW, “ I gave you, Machia, and Apolo a choice to make that day…”
“Become a Narnian, stay a pirate, or leave Narnia fer good.” She finished for him.
“And, believe it or not, you chose two of those options, just as I‘d hoped you three would.” Aslan seemed to smile at IOWW,
” Many an innocent life has been saved by your acts. Even many who weren’t innocent are alive today because of you.”
“Like the wizard, you mean…” IOWW stared at the ground in shame.
“The Wizard was one,” Aslan nodded, ” But, you also spared the White Witch, Jadis.”
“But, that did nothing for the good of Narnia…” IOWW said sadly,” look how Saruman is destroying Narnia…and it wouldn’t be happening if I hadn’t let him live...”
“You let a man who could not defend himself live, child. Saruman could not fight against you, and you saw that. By letting him live, you did more for Narnia than you can imagine. You offered him justice and peace, much as I offered you that long time ago.” Aslan paused, then continued,
” He chose not to acknowledge and accept your offer, which is why Narnia is in disarray. The Wizard shall have the same fate as the White Witch did when the Pevensie’s first came to Narnia. But, his time will come another day...”
IOWW had tears falling freely down her face,
“Thank you, Aslan. I’m glad I served you as I was supposed to.” She managed to say.
Aslan shook his head,
“You are not done serving me, IOWW.”
