a couple weeks ago I messaged @catie-does-things and said I couldn’t remember the Rilian-Caspian reunion but I was thinking about Cinderella 2015 with Kit and his dad, since Caspian is now an old man and I had remembered he died at the end, and I just read the reunion last night and:
It was the old King on a bed, very pale and still. They set him down. The Prince knelt beside him and embraced him. They could see King Caspian raising his hand to bless his son. And everyone cheered, but it was a half-hearted cheer, for they all felt that something was going wrong. Then, suddenly, the King’s head fell back upon his pillows, the musicians stopped and there was a dead silence. The Prince, kneeling by the King’s bed, laid down his head upon it and wept.
