| - | [[File:3787.jpg|left]]After Caspian's Queen is killed by a serpent, Rilian goes out day after day, week after week, to slay the serpent and avenge his mother. Finally one day Drinian confronts Rilian to stop him from continuing this fruitless quest. Rilian tells Drinian that he no longer thinks of the serpent, but rides out now to see the most beautiful thing he has ever seen in his life. Drinian asks to go with him the following day and Rilian agrees. When they come to the place the Queen had been killed, Drinian looks up and sees the beautiful woman Rilian had spoken of. When she sees Drinian, she disappears. Drinian senses danger but decides not to tell Caspian because he does not want to be a tale-bearer. But when Rilian disappears the following day, Drinian goes to Caspian and confesses that by his silence, Rilian has come to harm. Caspian rushes at him with a battle-axe and Drinian stands stock-still for the blow, but before Caspian kills Drinian he stops himself, saying, "I have lost my queen and my son: shall I lose my friend also?" | + | [[File:3787.jpg|left]]After [[Ramandu's Daughter|Caspian's Queen]] is killed by a serpent, [[Rilian]] goes out day after day, week after week, to slay the serpent and avenge his mother.
