As the current ruler of Archenland while your brother, the king, was away on business in the Lone Islands, you were expected to maintain good relations with the Narnian peoples. Having heard of the grand triumphs of their current queens and kings, you invited those select four for a festival in Archenland to celebrate the two-year anniversary of their defeat of the White Witch. As their ship was docked and the four monarchs disembarked, heading toward you with warm smiles, you (always one to put on a show), struck up the band and began to sing for them:

"With an open smile and with open doors,
I will bid you welcome- what is mine is yours!
-with a glass raised to toast your health!
"

The youngest queen, Lucy the Valiant, beamed and sang back the verse as she joined in with your dancing,

"With a glass raised to toast your health!"

Although Queen Lucy's siblings did not follow her lead, you could tell they were amused and gladdened by such a dramatic welcome, and so continued your song:

"And a promise to share the wealth!
I will sail a friendly course, file a friendly chart,
on a sea of love and a thankful heart!
"

Bowing to the four rulers of Narnia as they did the same, the band quieting but still playing the merry tune behind you, you offered the customary salutations and officially welcomed them to Archenland. The cheers of your people, those of which had gathered in the masses to welcome the Queens and Kings, nearly drowned you out, but you didn't mind.

After all, it wasn't every day five sovereigns met in musical ovation.






Inspired by the song "Thankful Heart" from The Muppet Christmas Carol. ()
