A wonderful gap filler and so original. The imagery as another reviewer mentions, especially of the long hair, the gaunt and hollow men, as baby birds. What struck me most is how they do not seem unchanged by the experience, which when I considered it, made perfect sense. I had envisioned them as grateful, jubilant, praising Aslan, but they are Telmarine and don't know. Something you capture wonderfully is the sadness, pain, and loss of Rhoop. There is a better nobility in him, than in these three confused Lords.
No joy at being free, but bitterness of living half lives. Wonderfully done.
