"We're following a guide we know nothing about. How do we know which side the bird is on?" From The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe, as quoted in A Year with Aslan Edmund, following Robin with his siblings to find Mr. Tumnus, voices his doubts about their guide flitting from tree to tree in a frozen fantasy land. He is still trying to comprehend how a beaver can talk and has already tasted the Queen's Turkish Delight. The familiar comfort of sweet indulgence and the promise of potential power have clouded his vision. He is suspicious of everyone, even his brother and sisters whom he knows so well. Why not doubt an unknown bird in a strange land?
