Chapter 9 Summary: “The Great Meeting on Stable Hill”

For a long time, no one can speak or cry. Then Jewel declares that Shift’s plans were deeper than they imagined—he must have been conspiring with the Tisroc when he found the lion skin, sending a message to the Calormenes to prepare their navy to vanquish Narnia. Jewel says that Tirian’s group must return to Stable Hill, announce the truth, and—if they manage to defeat the 30 Calormenes gathered there—die in battle fighting the much greater number of Calormenes marching from Cair Paravel. Tirian agrees but wants to send the children back to their own world because they are too young to die and have fulfilled their mission. The children refuse to leave (they also have no magic by which to return home). The group agrees to go to Stable Hill and wait for the night meeting to surprise the Narnians by displaying Puzzle. Eustace asks Jill whether they will be dead in their own world if they get killed in Narnia. When he felt the train jerk in England, he anticipated an accident and was therefore glad they arrived in Narnia. Poggin the dwarf hopes that many talking animals will come over to their side and that Narnia will be revived.
