Caspian ignored it. That sounded unlikely, if likely at all. "I'll talk to her about it." he said. His eyes closed again. "Your crazy mind gives you insanity." he told her. "What are the words in your elven language that I could use to say: I never loved you.?"

"I'll not tell you," She shook her head as he asked her. "I saw your own emotions and thoughts. To speak those words now would force your heart and lungs to stop and you would die within seconds. Ono illiana eka." She said, You loved me. "The past is inescapable and fate is unavoidable. I have no insanity, only passion in my heart birthed of love for you. But never insanity. I will let you go, just this once, to follow after Susan and seek her council. But even I cannot guarantee that whatever has blocked me from your mind, having sinced my influence in you, will allow her to live until tomorrow.

Caspian flew from the bed. His hands were around her throat in an instant. "You put her life in danger!" he growled. "If she dies, it's your fault. But I won't kill you, nope. I'll force you to live a life of suffering for what you've done. If what you say is true, you better pray until your tongue falls out that she lives." He struck her again.

"I meant not to put her in danger." She defended herself weakly but not putting a fight as he struck her. "I knew that it was possible that you were controlled, but I thought it would be by a common magician, maybe an elf or a powerful human. I didn't realize the magic came from a demon. They are the only ones who can link minds together. I am sorry, I didn't mean it. Even I don't fully understand what I saw. The demon seemed too young to be placing curses on people's minds and memories being only a foal, but what am I to know of demon magic?"

Caspian got off of her, releasing her neck roughly and ran out the door. If Susan really did only have till tomorrow to live, he wanted to be with her. His feet carried him through the castle, and he stumbled a little from the large amount of energy she had taken from him. Caspian would find his wife. He had to. He reached the front door and paused. Which way should he go?

Katrina stood and followed ignoring the pain that lanced through her because of her stomach. Never would she let him from her sight, at least not now. "She would be Lamont now," She told him knowing what he wanted. "The demon that is corrupting you is nearby, but I cannot tell exactly what he is doing. His mind is elsewhere, perhaps in a dream."

"Would you stop following me?" he growled, knowing that she would probably ignore him and disobey anyway. Caspian ran as fast as he could, which wasn't very fast right now considering how tired he was. She, on the other had, with his strength, would be able to reach him if she wanted. If she did, Caspian would ask for his strength back.

"I won't," she told him with as much confidence as she could force in her voice, "not after what I know now. If things were not as severe as they are I would have left you, but now I cannot bear it. I will follow, I will fight, I will die."

When she came to him, Caspian grabbed her hand and held it tightly, almost wanting to hurt her through it. "Give me my strength back, Katrina. Give it here. Now."

She bowed as he took her hand knowing what he wanted before he asked for it. "I will, but only if warning is given first. If I give it back to you there is a small chance I will die. It is a sacrifice I am willing to pay simply because it was my actions that lead me to this to begin with. But you must take into account that I am the only one who knows of what you know. When the demon strikes who will be able to protect Susan from him?"

"Keep half." he told her. "I hate you right now, but I do not wish your death." yet. he added in his mind. If Susan died, she was toast. Caspian held onto her hand, waiting for his strength to return.

She spoke the word that would return the magic stopping as half of it passed to him. She was still strong enough to fight, but not against a demon. If a strong one came for Susan, not the young one she sensed controlling her, then there would be no chance of survival for all three of them. But still she looked back hiding the fear deep in her. "I am ready."

"I didn't ask you if you were ready." Caspian barked rudely. "If she dies, it's your fault." he repeated, and thinking of the little baby that was inside his wife now. So he corrected, "If either one of them die, it's your fault." His voice was full with rage. No one could have ever seen him this angery before.

"Either?" She had heard nothing of someone else with Susan. She had known of Galen, as did all of Narnia, but the boy was not with her now. He had his own nursery where he could sleep alone, but close enough that she could hear him if something happened to it. "I knew nothing of another. I will do everything in my power to protect. But without my wand I cannot promise much."

"Yes, either." Caspian said again. And then, proudly, "She's pregnant. With my child." The King walked faster now.
(ooc: This thread and the other thread aren't matching up as far as post info, because this thread is happening after the other one, which is still going on. So actually, Susan is staying at the Castle now, but in this thread he thinks that she's with Lamont, if that makes any sense. The other thread has correct information for reference if you get lost)
