Caspian had never thought himself much of a leader. He didn't have the self-confidence, he believed, to take up the position and be effective. But, time and again, he was put in the position of authority, and time and again, he rose to the challenge, his yearning to do what was right outweighing his trepidations about his capability.

And so when it fell to him to lead this ragamuffin group through the labyrinth, he prepared for the journey as best as he could. While he was under the impression that every journey through the maze was different, fraught with dangers unlike the ones laid out before, he spoke to those he could about what would befall the group, and took it all into account. There was also the subject of provisions, as the journey could take days, even weeks to complete. That was a harder task to undertake, but from the three packs at his feet, it was fairly clear that Caspian had done all he could to ensure that, at the very least, the group would not starve.

So now, all the young king could do was wait, sitting on a low wall near the entrance, watching the sun rise over the changed city - which he really didn't have the mental capacity to ponder at the moment - and watched for his companions to arrive.

Giselle took up her place next to Legolas when they began walking through the stone corridors. Giselle had never been in a maze before and found it slightly disconcerting. She could tell right away that some people would rather she wasn't along. She was starting to think maybe she should do it on her own. She didn't want to hinder their progress and she certainly didn't want to put anyone in danger.

She put her hand on Legolas' sleeve and leaned up on her tiptoed to whisper softly in his ear. "I think perhaps I should go back. You stay and help the others through. I'll try again another day." She dropped back down to her heels and gave him a brave smile although she was feeling rather let down by the obvious lack of faith everyone had in everyone else.

She turned and began to head back toward the entrance of the Labyrinth when it slammed shut in her face. She pushed against it and tried to get it to open back up for her, but it seemed to be of little use. The stone door didn't budge. She sighed softly and looked back at the rest of the group. "I don't suppose we have a choice now."
