![]() He gives Jill four signs which she must learn by heart and which are to help the two in their quest. Jill on the other hand meets Aslan, who tells her that they’ve been summoned to Narnia by him for he has a task for them, to find the lost prince. Here they make their way to a cliff where Eustace is blown away. Meanwhile as the bullies (or rather one of their sidekicks) close in on them, Eustace and Jill (or Scrubb and Poll as they refer to each other) run through the shrubbery towards a door which leads to the moor, but there is magic at work of course, for instead of the moor, they are in Narnia. In fact, not only that, he even shares with her his secret-his visit to Narnia, and Aslan. ![]() Post that adventure, Eustace has turned over a new leaf, standing up for a rabbit, keeping secrets, and even comforting Jill. Jill who has just been targeted by some of these psychological cases is hiding in the bushes, when Eustace Scrubb, the Pevensies’ cousin and part of their adventure aboard the Dawn Treader appears to comfort her. But it opens as all the others have, in our human realm where we meet Jill Pole, a young girl studying in the rather unpleasant Experiment House, a school which appears to encourage rather than check bullies, dubbing them ‘interesting psychological cases’. This is once again an adventure/quest story like the immediately previous one, The Voyage of the Dawn Treader but the journey here, in contrast to one at sea in that book was on, and under land. ![]()
