So after reading below, I do agree that Edmund's past should come from Ed himself. If he could/would speak a little of it, it would lessen the confusion his behavior had generated -- there's a reason why he's so concerned with his dealings with Seth; why he trusts but not trusts.

As for Peridan... well, I'm actually enjoying his character a lot more than Tebbitt at the moment!

And oh, will Constance ever meet Queen Lucy again? I think that'd be an interesting reunion. Would Lucy even remember Constance?
