[[File:3786.jpg|left]]Trufflehunter lives in hiding with the other Old Narnians during [[Miraz]]'s reign. When [[Caspian]], the rightful king of Narnia, is knocked unconscious outside his den, Trufflehunter takes him in and cares for him. The Badger gives [[Caspian]] quite a shock when he awakens (he is the first Talking Beast that [[Caspian]] has ever seen). After listening to [[Caspian]]'s story, Trufflehunter immediately offers his allegiance and introduces [[Caspian]] to the other Old Narnians. He fights by [[Caspian]]'s side against [[Miraz]]'s army. Even after it appears that blowing Queen Susan's horn has done no good, Trufflehunter maintains his belief that the help would come as the legends promised. After the second Battle of Beruna, [[Caspian]] bestows the Knighthood of the Order of the Lion on Trufflehunter. | [[File:3786.jpg|left]]Trufflehunter lives in hiding with the other Old Narnians during [[Miraz]]'s reign.

| + | ==About Trufflehunter== | ||
| + | Trufflehunter is a loyal believer in [[Aslan]], even though the Lion has not been seen in Narnia for over a thousand years. After [[Caspian]] blows Queen Susan's horn seeking help, many of the Old Narnians, even [[Doctor Cornelius]], begin to doubt that aid will come. But Trufflehunter never loses faith. "The help will come," he says. Minutes later, High King [[Peter Pevensie|Peter]] and King [[Edmund Pevensie|Edmund]] enter Aslan's How. "Best of badgers. You never doubted us all through," [[Peter Pevensie|Peter]] says. | ||
