As he spoke the sun began to set, and a cold breeze blew throughout the garden. “It is time,” said Gaius. “Tel no one of the things you have seen here, but remember…always remember.”
His voice faded, and the garden seemed to glow more brightly than ever until the silver overwhelmed their sight. And when it faded, Peter and Julia found themselves no longer in Aedyn.
“My goodness!” It was their grandmother, come to find them in the garden. “Both out of your beds after midnight—after midnight! You’l catch your death of cold! Come inside the house, and let’s warm you up and get you safely into bed. Your father’s coming tomorrow with something special to tel you, and I don’t want him to find you stil abed!” Peter and Julia exchanged glances, and then, silently agreeing that it was best not to say too much, nestled under their grandmother’s arms and went up into the house.
