This is what I'm writing after I finish "In Constellated Wars." Just for the culture shock. (Caspian's shock at seeing the Narnian army in full flower is definitely going to be something, and Peter and Edmund as grown men -- if he thought Peter was a good swordsman back in PC, it's only because he hasn't seen Peter in his prime. Learned how to fight on oiled glass.)
Yeah, I rambled on about my language theory up above to lassiterfics, and it has me thinking. Mostly that the "modern" Narnian tongue wouldn't be understandable to the Pevensies at all except for magic, and vice versa. A thousand years. Look at Shakespearean English and now, and England hasn't been taken over by a couple of invading countries in the intervening years (like my Narnia).
