Caspian had won the maze, but not his freedom. And while he wasn't entirely sure he wanted it, given the alternative, the option would have been nice. Not that he particularly expected Jareth to give anyone options about anything, but the point was still valid. At any rate, he'd beaten the maze with the help (or not) of his companions, and had spent the next day or so wandering around his new homelike area, investigating the house and the Goblin City, getting his bearings yet again.

Then he decided to try out the teleportation device, and see how the others were getting on in the City of Illusion. So, after a painless, but odd, bit of magic, Caspian found himself in his old quarters in the dorms. Easy enough, though he wasn't entirely sure how frequently he was going to be making that trip back and forth. It was a bit unnerving, after all.

Walking out of the dorms, Caspian stopped short. It was Christmas, though that was fine, if a bit odd. They had Christmas in Narnia, after all, so that wasn't anything to be alarmed about, other than the drastic weather change. What had stopped him in his tracks were the huge metal things looming overhead. There were people in them, laughing and...screaming? But everyone looked so happy. Where as Caspian, for the first time in fifty years, felt like the scared little boy that had told Aslan that he didn't think himself ready to rule.

He listened to her story politely, and though there was little of it that he truly understood all the details of, he could understand the destiny to rule. "You were to be a queen then?" he asked, tilting his head to the side. "As well as your sister?" There wasn't surprise, just genuine curiosity there, as Caspian had certainly heard of multiple kings and queens ruling at the same time before.

"That sounds so what?" he asked, raising a brow. The things in his world weren't fantastical to him, and so it took him a minute to catch on to what she was getting at. "We have normal things too. Homes and towns and schools and people," he shrugged.

Alex had never really thought about it as being a queen. She just knew that Karsh and Illeana had made such a big deal about keeping her sister and herself safe to lead the new generation. "I suppose it'd be like that...I'm not sure if I'd have the title of queen but something along those lines I suppose." she wasn't completely sure as to what the title was just what the job entailed. Though she didn't have any time to really get briefed on the subject due to being dragged here.

"So what are you?" she asked then listening to him describe Narnia more. "You have so many magical things, which one are you?"
