@pevensienet Six Weeks of Christmas Challenge:

Sending out Invitations [1/2]

His Majesty, Peter, High King of Narnia sends an invitation to his fiancée, Her Ladyship, Athena, Marchioness of Great River Delta

It writes:

”My Dearest Athena, 

It must seem trivial to exchange such formalities as we are to be wed days from now, but, alas, traditions like this never appear to fade into history. As the celebrations of the Christmas season draw closer, it is with much pleasure that I formally invite you to the Christmas Ball this eve in the Great Halls of Cair Paravel.

My love, I remember our first Christmas together. You and Ed sat by the buffet table all evening, feasting on the array of chocolates with sweet smiles. I can’t help but laugh in fondness of the thought. How young we must have been; how unaware of our future together.

I’ve been meaning to ask what in Aslan’s name you want for Christmas? You’re famously the worst person to buy presents for in the entire royal court and I can’t ask Susan or Edmund again because they too have run out of any good ideas! And don’t claim that you don’t want anything. If you do, I will still feel unbelievably bad and get you something anyway. Furthermore, you are completely deserving of a present after the ordeal I have put you through these last years. I’m sorry about that. I’m also sorry for apologising a thousand times despite your forgiveness, my love. Yours forever,

Peter.”
