Narnia Fic Recs - Golden Age

I’m starting a short fic rec series to spread some love for Narnia authors, they aren’t in any sort of order other than the really long ones are on the bottom.

A lot of these stories are on ff.net which I know is a pain of a site to use, however, I sorted through a lot of Narnia fics to find these and I think they deserve some love. I did check if anything was on ao3 and put that link instead if I could find it. Please give these authors some love, kudos, favorites, comments, etc. They’re all great and it’s always fun to find older fics!

If y’all have any fic recs you can send them my way, or if you know if any of these authors are on tumblr let me know. I’ll be releasing more rec lists sorted roughly by era so look out for those under #lillys fic recs

The Silver Crown by todreaminscarlet

Rated Gen, 1.5k words

A conversation between Edmund and Susan late at night after their coronation.

A Very Taxing Christmas Eve by acacia59601

Rated K+, 2.5k words

One of my favorite fics, Peter is just trying to figure out things like Taxes for Narnia on Christmas Eve and he ends up having a good talk with Father Christmas.

In Dangerous Places by ilysia

Rated K+, 6k words

Edmund gets captured but they don’t know who he is, so he’s trying to get out without them figuring out exactly who they have.

The Dream Dasher by Thalion King’s Daughter

Rating K+, 21.5k words

Okay so this is definitely crack, it’s basically a Mary Sue trying to win Peter’s heart despite the very clear signals that he’s not interested. Based on a document Edmund makes in Elecktrum’s They Also Serve that forbids anyone who marries one of the four from actually gaining a title or right to the throne. She has good character growth though and by the end she’s not an annoying mary sue.

Neville the Chamberlin by Elecktrum

Rated Gen, 10k words

A fun, silly fic focusing on Neville, a new Hyena member of the court of Cair Paravel trying to find a place for himself. It’s written in letter form and shows the siblings from an outside perspective as they try to find a temporary chamberlain and fail, a lot. Part of the series by Elecktrum but can be read alone.

Only Children by Thalion King’s Daughter

Rating K, 74k words

I’m normally very wary of OC centered fics, but this one is great. Set in Elecktrum’s world from series Sword and Shield, Jewel and Song, Peridan (from A Horse and His Boy) comes to Narnia with his family, including his sons Jaer and Jaerin. They are similar ages to Edmund and Lucy and show an interesting perspective on the Narnian court and the beginning of the Golden Age. All the characters are very 3D and fun to read about. It’s technically not finished, but doesn’t end on a cliff hanger and since it feels a bit more ‘a day in the life’ it’s not too bad.

Kingdoms Come by Adalet

Rated K+, 132k words

I haven’t read this one in a while, but it’s another good Pevensies sorting out Narnia, fixing the mess the White Witch left, calling back all the people fled 100 years ago, and generally figuring out how to be Kings and Queens.

Carpetbaggers by cofax

Rated Gen, 119k words

Starting right after the coronation festivities, the siblings have to figure out how to help Narnia and how to find their place in this new world. As they travel around Narnia they meet lots of different groups and dealing with some of the witches army. The side characters are great, and the magical connection that the siblings form with the land is also wonderful. Lots of just hard work to build the kingdom in a very satisfying way.

Black Dwarves, Blue River by Elecktrum

Rated Gen, 53.5k words

In the first year of their reign, Edmund goes to visit a very stubborn clan of black dwarves. It has great side characters, great worldbuilding for Narnian customs and culture, and Edmund being sassy and stubborn in return while really settling into being King. The other Pevensies feature a bit but it’s really about Edmund. Also has some fun blacksmithing info if you’re curious about that kind of thing. Part of the series by Elecktrum but can be read alone.

Sword and Shield, Jewel and Song by @elecktrum

Rated G-T, 26 Works

Okay so this series is really great for world building, the basic premise is just that the golden age longer than a lot of people think, a couple decades instead of 15 years. Most fics are still set early in the Golden Age (a few are set in the other eras or after), as the siblings are figuring out how to lead and also rebuild from the destruction of the witch. Most of the fics can be read as stand alones, are less than 10k, and don’t even have to be read in order.

A few should be read in order like: Into the West, which is one of the novel length fics with a companion called They Also Serve where Peter journey’s west to undo the Witches’ magic attacking Edmund, lots of adventure and angst between the two. Black Dwarves, Blue River now has a companion sequel called Belana, both are about Edmund trying to gain the good will of a dwarven clan and getting to know Narnia. Thole is another novel length fic about the giants invading and capturing Peter which has a kind of epilouge/transition sequel A Blessing of Rain. The whole series has amazing world building, great characterization, and wonderfully complex side characters. I really enjoy how the series dives into the interactions between creatures and humans, while also acknowledging the magic of Narnia.

Shipping Fics - I generally don’t really read shipping fics for Narnia, but these ones were fun. I’m currently finding new fics, so I might make a separate list for shipping fics eventually.

To Seek a Newer World by Francienyc

Rated T, 133.5k words

A Peridan/Edmund fic that has some really interesting world building for the Lone Islands and the start of Narnia’s reign. I really like Peridan in this, he’s very interesting. There is blatant external homophobia though so be aware of that, as well as a lot of fear from Peridan. Lots of pining and a solid slowburn between them. It does cover the events of Horse and His Boy, but from the Narnian side, obviously.

A Tenuous Alliance by platinum_firebird

Rated T, 8.5k words

AU where the Telmarines have a strong empire during the Golden Age and Caspian gets an arranged marriage with Edmund. Overall cute and fun to see the siblings and Caspian trying to figure each other out.

The Night Witch Chapter 34 || FFN  • AO3

"Yeah, I guess I understand that," Brielle said, voice turning quiet. "You want to be sure the love is true." Susan stopped. Oh. Oh! She looked Brielle in the eye, finally understood what was making her friend worry so much. "You think Peter's still in love with Diane, don't you?" Brielle looked at Susan from the corner of her eye. "Well, he's always going to love her. You know that. But that doesn't mean that he's not going to be able to have some love for you as well. You can love more than one person; I love you and my brothers and sister equally. I love my mum and dad. I love Narnia…" "How can he love a servant rather than a queen?" Brielle asked bluntly. She folded her arms. "I'm not saying I don't enjoy my life; I do. I don't want to run an entire country—" "—if you marry Peter, you'll be the High Queen—" "—and I'll take that with the name but I'm not going to be the one to make the rules," Brielle interrupted. "No one would follow me. They'll just look at me as a lonely servant, as your lady in waiting, as…his…bloody mistress and nothing else." "You mean those rumors that are going around the castle? Since when have you cared about what anyone else has to say? You disregarded Peter telling you to stay with Lucy back when we went on that blitz on Miraz's castle and went to fight anyway." Brielle looked at Susan like she was stupid. "Well, I needed to make sure you were okay. That's my job." "And you didn't stop to think about your safety at all. You wanted to come in and do what you could for Narnia, and for us, because you love everyone and everything here. You've grown to love it as much as the rest of us have in the time you've been here." She grasped Brielle's hands and firmly held them. "Your station in our life, your 'status' doesn't matter. If Peter wants to be with you and you want to be with him, then it's because it's what you want. It doesn't matter what anyone else thinks or says. All that matters is what you think of each other." Brielle nodded. Something washed over her face for a moment, something Susan suddenly thought her friend didn't want her to see. Something of a dark look that sent a chill down Susan's spine. Almost like a sinister thought had crossed Brielle's mind in the seconds before the look went away and she appeared more serene. "So?" "So?" Brielle repeated. "Was it a good kiss?" Brielle let out a long sigh and stopped to rest her back against the wall behind her. Susan watched with a small smile as her best friend seemed to swoon directly in front of her. Something that lightly put it off because it was her brother, but at the same time was sweet. Susan hadn't seen Brielle genuinely interested in anyone since Lord Peridan just as Susan hadn't seen anyone genuinely interested in anyone since his late wife. Even if things didn't worked out… At least they would keep each other company with their bickering, Susan thought with a small, amused smile. "How was your kiss with Caspian?" Brielle asked in response. Susan smiled. "It was very lovely." "Yeah," Brielle agreed, voice going soft. "Mine, too."

"It's Narnia, any soiree is practically unending," Peter noted, "you learn to accept it eventually," he certainly didn't want to party nonstop but when you ruled over a wild kingdom it was likely to happen.

Lilliandil merely smiled in understanding, "I'm sure it was a much easier journey," she agreed with a gentle tilt of her head, "Lord Peridan, my daughter insisted we come"

@blackskiesbeautifultimes

Elizabeth was trying to breath in as much air as she possibly could the tight corset restraining her upper torso. Fanning herself to hide her labored breathing. She loved her father dearly and was grateful of all the spoiling he did, but she absolutely hated this dress. As soon as she was able, she would toss this dress into the fire and say it was an accident.

It was so unbelievably hot out today in the Caribbean, she was glad her maid insisted on her wearing a hat. She looked up finally as Norrington was named Admiral. She was happy for him, knowing him since she was a child. He was nothing but courteous of her and Elizabeth knew her father wanted them to wed.

She however was unsure, but she knew she would find no better match than him. A quick flash of dark brown eyes and hair filled her head of her childhood friend Will. She shook her head and quickly dismissed the thought as she followed the Admiral.

As he spoke, black dots flooded her vison and was lucid enough to hear his proposal. Before she could say anything however she fainted, falling off the barracks and crashing into the ocean and when she hit the bottom a pulse went through the ocean. Still unconscious her hat floated up to the surface.

[queenlucythevaliant]

“I call all times soon”

Living so near to the Eastern Sea made Aslan’s prolonged absence all the more maddening. Lucy could look out from any of a hundred picture windows and imagine she saw his golden figure coming towards her across the rolling waves.

The ambassador from Galma called her Valiant, and Lucy stiffened. The name sounded strange when it did not come from Narnian lips.

Even unarmed, she was not without weapons: a strong voice, a ready wit, fingertips sharpened on bowstrings. She would never be defenseless again. Still, she trembled.

How bloody must we pray our lips? Lucy stumbled across the line in a book of poetry and let it simmer in her heart. Come to me, she said, over and over. Her lips were numb from repetition some nights, but not yet bloody.

Your courage makes my own fear less frightening, Peter told her. The air in the tent was oppressive; in the distance, the night-sounds of the enemy camp could just be heard. Lucy looked up at her big brother, feeling slight and insubstantial. Oh Peter, she said, you have given me a heavy compliment. I am not strong enough to bear the weight of it.

The light on the water was lovely, but it was not Aslan.

Winter sank its teeth into the land and Lucy bundled herself in furs. She marched north with a column of soldiers wrapped in bearskin. In white ermine, she went to Archenland for the signing of a new treaty. She brushed her fingers over the softness of the fur until hairs came off in her hands. When she drew herself up, she imagined that she was the fiercest of beasts, armed with tooth and claw.

Lucy wept into her sister’s hair the morning after Christmas. An absurd sorrow, she knew; it was not as though the great Lion was in the habit of visiting on Christmas. Still, she had thought to see him. If he had ended one long absence with an arrival at Christmas, perhaps he might do it again. I’m sorry, Lucy breathed between sobs, I’m getting snot in it. Susan shook her head. I miss him too.

Peridan left court at midnight wearing naught put a cloak over his nightshirt when word came that his wife had gone into labor prematurely. When Lucy heard the following morning, she cursed the young lord for not awakening her and made to follow him with her cordial. Mother and babe were both hale and whole in the wee hours of the next day. The Valiant Queen wiped blood onto her skirt. The sun rose golden.

Lucy remembered how to be brave, even with Aslan gone. She remembered how to still the shaking in her hands and her heart and do what needed to be done. She did not remember how to be invincible.

When she returned to court the next day, Lucy learned that Aslan had been seen at Lantern Waste in her absence, and had spoken with Edmund.

She shot her practice target to an awful, twisted pulp, feeling depraved. He had come, but not to her.

Lucy visited Tumnus and drank over-steeped tea before a roaring fire. She brought bread from the Cair’s kitchens. Rosemary, poppy seed, cumin, and honey. It all smelled, unfathomably, of home.

She had not been to see the Beavers lately, because speaking with Mr. Beaver now put her in mind of those long-ago words: Not often here, you understand. Not in my time, nor in my father’s time. Nothing frightened Lucy so much as the flickering idea that she might never hear Aslan’s voice again, as all the long years of her life stretched out before her.

Edmund always kept Aslan’s visits tallied in a little leather journal. When and where he arrived. What he said. What he did. Stubbornly, Lucy gave him a new journal for his birthday. For when the current one is full, she said.

At last, at last, Lucy saw Aslan again. She ran to him, full tilt, as she had done many times before.

When Lucy reached him, she did not embrace him. Instead, she beat her fists against him with all her strength. Her knuckles came away bruised; still, she did not relent. She punched and hit and kicked the great Lion until she could no longer stand, and then fell against him, exhausted, weeping.

Through all Lucy’s onslaught, Aslan never moved. He flinched neither in pain nor self-defense; he never hindered or chastised her. He simply stood, absolute and immovable, and let her strike him.

I needed you, sobbed Lucy. You were gone for so long. Oh Aslan, how could you?

And now Aslan bowed his great, golden head and breathed on her. Darling daughter, I have never once abandoned you, he said.

The Night Witch: Chapter 32 Sneak Peek

“Why didn’t you write?” Peter asked.

Brielle gazed at him, eyes widening in surprise. “I did write you!” She reached out and placed her hand on Peter’s, squeezed it. “Did Susan not share my letters? I had a lot to say.”

“Yes, about nylons and lipsticks and parties,” Peter replied with a light roll of his eyes. “I think I have to blame you for Susan starting to become interested in that, thank you.” He eyebrows shifted upwards. “The more time we spent home, away from Narnia, the more we changed. She started to move on a bit faster than the rest of us.”

“There’s nothing wrong with those things.”

“No, I suppose not. But it was weird to see one of the best Queens I’ve ever seen suddenly care about other matters.”

“I didn’t only just write about that,” Brielle said. “I wrote about home and my mum and dad…”

“But you only wrote to Susan. We all went through a lot together, I sort of expected you to write to all of us.” Peter cleared his throat. “Not to say that you need to write four letters, that would’ve been murdered on your hand, and you—”

“—Peter, you’re rambling,” Brielle interrupted. She sighed. “I guess I didn’t know what to say to the rest of you. Edmund and I were only close because of Peridan, I was more of Lucy’s servant than her friend at the time because she was so young. And you…” her mouth twitched. “Well, we didn’t really get along, we both know that. Seems all we do is bicker all the time.”

Peter smiled.

“It was hard, you know. Waiting to see what happened to you when you didn’t come back from searching for the stag. Next thing I knew, I went to take a bath and I woke up in my bathroom with my mom banging on the bloody door, wondering if I fell in!” Brielle chuckled to herself. “It took a long time to figure out where you were for me to send Susan a letter, I never expected her to write back. I never thought I’d find you, considering the war and all…”

Peter nodded.

Brielle tucked her hair behind her ear. “Why didn’t you write?”

The question seemed to throw him off guard for a moment. His eyebrows pinched and he sucked his lips into his mouth. Finally, he turned and looked her in the eye. “I didn’t know if you’d wanted me to.”

Any key points or knowledge we know about the golden age / pls specify if it's canon or not. :D

I’ll stick to canon here (also refer to my main blog’s golden age edit - it’s all canon stuff) but this is what I know -

Cor and Corin were born and Cor was kidnapped.

The Pevensie’s pursue and destroy (? it is assumed) the remaining followers of the Witch.

The Pevensie’s have a ship called the Splendour Hyaline.

Some of the people who seemed to be part of the Pevensie’s lives were Mr Tumnus and Lord Peridan (most act as if Oreius was there too but he is not in the books and so technically not canon).

The Witch’s Castle was destroyed.

Susan receives a Calormene Ambassador at Cair Paravel and Rabadash attempts to court her (this leads to the events of Horse and His Boy).

The Apple Orchard is planted in Cair Paravel

High King Peter leaves with a force and battles the Giants - known as the Ettinsmoor War.

The Battle of Anvard (see more in The Horse and His Boy)

The Pevensie’s leave Narnia.

Outside this, not much is really known, a lot of it is speculation or based on other mediums (the films, the games and fanfiction).

@valianceearned asked      ☾     if they had a kid meme because I am genuinely curious     ☽

NAME:  Owain Peter Rys, Crown Prince of Narnia

GENDER: Male

GENERAL APPEARANCE: Dark hair and eyes. A particularly lanky build.

PERSONALITY: Highly abrasive and stubborn, yet somewhere lies a gentle heart. Exploits his title as Prince to gain favours and to get his own way.

SPECIAL TALENTS: Expert swordsman and has mastered jousting.

WHO THEY LIKE BETTER: His mother, especially as he resents his father’s disliking of his behaviour as heir.

WHO THEY TAKE AFTER MORE: Embodies the attitudes of his mother.

HEADCANON: Owain was the result of Peridan and his mistress, Valerie’s, relationship. Knowing no children would come from his unconsummated marriage to the niece of the Calormene Tisroc, the King legitimised his son and made him heir to the throne.

FACECLAIM: Arnas Fedaravicius

Sir Peridan ✦ 27 ✦ Human ✦ Narnian ✦ FC: DAN STEVENS

Synopsis:

Peridan’s family comes from the line of Frank and Helen, making them distantly related to Queen Swanwhite. During the winter, Peridans family played the part of complacency, keeping under the radar of the Witch’s ire in order to help those in Narnia as best they could. Peridan grew up helping those who wished to flee, learning early how to be wise around danger, yet giving and compassionate. He was told that he was the descendant of the first King and Queen of Narnia, and as such was taught to behave in a way that was worthy of that name.

When the Winter melted, Peridan and his father fought at the Battle of Beruna, earning the title of ‘Hopebringer’ from Aslan, who knighted him into the Order of the Lion. Because of his upbringing, family, and actions during the winter, Peridan has much influence in Narnia, being granted a place in the Royal Household as Lord Steward. He is a trusted friend of the Pevensies, and in their inner circle.

Peridan is a man of his word, and a man of honor, his years in the winter carved a man of great faith in Aslan as well, and gave him a determination and courage which some find inspiring. But apart from the knight known by the crowd, Peridan is a man who loves deeply, a gentle soul, who enjoys life to the fullest, though within moderation. Too much of a good thing can be harmful, after all.

Relationships:

King Peter: The closest relationship Peridan has is with the King himself, a brotherly regard having been built over the years between them. Two men who have matured within the same timeframe, and have grown together, making for themselves a very comfortable and relaxed friendship. Some may say that Peridan is too casual with the king, and some wonder if he feels slighted by the Lion for passing over him as monarch of Narnia. But for Peridan, he couldn’t be more pleased. He’ll gladly tease Peter that things may have been very different, but he will always be delighted that it’s Peter and not he. His friend is much more suited to the crown.

Tumnus: Tumnus was always a good friend of Peridans father, and now the work closely as the Chamberlain and Steward of the palace. Business brought them together more than anything, though soon a lovely companionship was struck and they realized they work very well together.

Petra Thorne: There are times when a man needs solace and solitude, and in the library Peridan found both, along with a little friend a few years ago. She’s a bit younger than himself, but she delights him with her more childish and innocent insight. They have something in common as well, the fact that Petras family also helped friends escape to Archenland, it is something that they have bonded over.
