1. What was one of Shasta's chores while he was with the fisherman?

Answer: Mending and washing the nets

Shasta's chores included mending and washing the nets, cooking their supper, and keeping the cottage clean.

2. What made Bree's Tarkaan so special?

The book never says whether the Tarkaan had ever met the Tisroc or Aslan. All Tarkaans were direct descendants of Tash.

3. What is Bree's real name?

Shasta couldn't pronounce Bree's real name, so he called him Bree.

Answer: No

They found out that they were "some sort of second cousins once removed".

5. Why did Aravis want to run away?

Answer: She was being forced to marry Ahoshta

Ahoshta was old and ugly, although he was in the favor of the Tisroc (by flattery and evil councils, of course).

6. How did Aravis, Hwin, Shasta, and Bree get through Tashbaan?

Answer: They went straight through it

They all wore disguises and although they had a few hardships along the way, they made it through Tashbaan.

King Edmund finds Shasta in the crowd and mistakes him for Prince Cor of Arkenland.

She did not encounter King Edmund until she reached Archenland, and her brother was dead. Although her father was in Tashbaan, they never met.

9. Who did the four companions meet first in Archenland?

Answer: The Hermit of the Southern March

They ran right into the hermitage, and there they met the Hermit. Shasta was sent on to warn King Lune of Archenland that Rabadash and his army were on their way to storm the castle. Prince Corin was on his way to Narnia at that time with King Edmund, Queen Susan, and a few other of their companions who had escaped Tashbaan with them.

10. Was Shasta actually a Prince?

Answer: Yes

Shasta was King Lune's long lost son. Shasta had been stolen from the king when he was just a baby. Shasta's real name is Prince Cor.
