First off, thank you so much for the lovely feedback! I'm glad you enjoyed the story.
I think, with Peter, that he remembers things as they're relevant -- for example, he has very little memory of his childhood or his school or his parents, but he remembers the Blitz because he's using similar tactics, and he remembers Nelson's message from Trafalgar because it's relevant. (Sort of.)
Combination of ideas, I think. Probably Peter or Edmund originally, back when they were planning the initial invasion back at Cair Paravel.
I think it is an understatement to say that Osumare's relationship with his family is somewhat strained. :)
Peter's oath still stands; in theory the Seabright family's oath still stands as well, since it was made to the High King's family rather than to Narnia itself. (Probably a deliberate choice on Prince Seabright's part.)
