Winter Wonderland - of some sort.
Jadis' room is the same room she's always had - but somehow, it seems bigger. The bleached oak bookcase against the wall fills the whole space available to it, wall-to-wall, floor to ceiling, and it is absolutely crammed, with books, papers, oddments of this and that. There doesn't immediately appear to be any kind of filing system, but Jadis never ( Read more... ) -
Outside, in the woods.
Jadis and Warglut have been riding through the woods, but they have both become bored of the dappled shade and the quiet, and have returned to the lake. The immense demon horse is pounding through the shallows, water churning and spraying up around his hooves. The woman peched on his back looks almost small on the vast beast, riding daringly, hair -
In the lake.
Jadis is swimming. It's not a thing she does very often - she hasn't since she's been at Milliways, and she rarely did in Narnia. Although she had often swum in Charn, in the palace pools, the oases, the harbour, even. But today, she had awoken with the desire for cool water, and so she had made her way to a secluded part of the lake, left her robe ( Read more... ) -

Jadis does have a room in Milliways. It's not large, and it's not small. It's very bare. The bed is huge, as befits the tall woman, and heaped with furs. The floor has a deep white carpet, the walls are palest blue, the ceiling is white. There is no glass in the window. The room is very chill ( Read more... ) -

Today, Milliways get a Jadis. A pleased-looking Jadis, cat that's got the cream. Today, she is not reading one of her modern books on mathematics, or engineering. No, the book that has her attention today is much older, although not large, leather bound, tooled in gold, and somehow, unpleasant looking, for all it's anonymity. -
Study, study, study.
Finally out of the infirmary, Jadis is sitting at the desk in her room. She was pleasantly surprised to discover that there were rooms available for people of her size. Of all sizes, presumably, although she wasn't in a position to check. She has several books spread out, opened and full of bookmarks. Sheets of paper are also spread out on the desk ( Read more... ) -

Being dead would be preferable. When she was sane enough to know that she wasn't dead, indeed that she was at all, Jadis had come to this conclusion. Those sane moments were few and far between. To begin with, she had known who and what and where (when) she was, and that knowledge had been too much to bear. Not only had she lost, but she was not ( Read more... )
