The ''Second Battle of Beruna'' is a fictional battle in C.S. Lewis's fantasy series The Chronicles of Narnia between the "Old Narnians" and the Telmarines. It is one of several battles in the Chronicles of Narnia. ==History== Following High King Peter's victorious conquest of Narnia from the White Witch, he and his siblings reigned as rulers for several years until year 1015. In Year 1998 Narnia was invaded by a race of men from the country of Telmar, under the command of Caspian I, and fell to them shortly after. The Telmarines brutally killed off most of the Narnians, forcing them into hiding. Several centuries later (year 2303), a young Telmarine Prince, later Caspian X, was chased from his father's castle by his murderous uncle, Miraz. He was eventually rescued by a trio of Narnians, a badger named Trufflehunter, a Black Dwarf named Nikabrik, and a Red Dwarf named Trumpkin. These three aided Caspian in gathering a small army of Narnian survivors together, and they began to wage war on the Telmarines and Miraz. However, the war's fortune quickly turned against the young prince and his army, losing battle after battle, until finally nearly a third of the army was lost in a battle led by Caspian and Giant Wimbleweather. Following this failed battle, Caspian blew the Horn of Queen Susan, calling her and her siblings from their world. They were soon found by Trumpkin, who led them back to Caspian's command center at Aslan's How. High King Peter and Prince Caspian knew their army was weak and losing morale. However Susan and Lucy realized that the great Lion, Aslan, had once again returned to Narnia and was preparing to awaken the trees and rivers of Narnia to fight alongside them. The two commanders realized that all of their plans now depended on time and patience. Edmund was sent to Miraz's camp to give Miraz a challenge by Peter to fight to the death in single combat. Two disgruntaled lords, Glozelle and Sopespian, manage to goad Miraz into accepting Edmund's offer. Miraz names Glozelle, Sopespian, and an unnamed Telmarine baron as his marshals, while Peter names Glenstorm the Centaur, Giant Wimbleweather, and the eldest Bulgy Bear as his. The fight goes well for Peter until Miraz slips on a tussock. Sopespian declares treachery stating that Peter slashed Miraz in the back while he was on the ground, thus beginning the Battle. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Second Battle of Beruna」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
