Passing the torch

Yesterday I PM'ed Stanley Anderson asking about a detail of Prince Caspian, the movie. At the end of the message I speculated about the last lines of the film.
After the Pevensie's return from Narnia, Edmond notes that he left his new torch (that's a flashlight to us in the USA) behind. So I asked Stanley who he thought got his or her hands on the lost torch. Here is his reply :


Maybe one of the trees ate the torch? :smile:

--Stanley

To which I retorted :

This has me musing... Maybe Reepicheep found it, glued a paper silhouette of a lion's head to the lens and used it as the Aslan Signal. Sort of like the Bat Signal in Gotham City. :lol:

Does anyone else have any ideas about who could have found Edmond's lost electric torch?

o Maybe one of the goblins found it, brought it to a campfire gathering, stuck it under his chin and shined the light upward so that it cast odd shadows onto his facial features, and said "Look at me -- I'm a human"

o Caspian found it and brought it on board the Dawn Treader so that Reepicheep could use it like those aircraft carrier signalers that guide planes in, except that Reepicheep would use it to guide the bedragoned Eustace in for a landing on the Dawn Treader.

o Or Caspian gave it as a gift to Ramandu as a sort of melancholy reminder of what he used to be like as a star in the Narnian sky.

o It was used by Caspian during night white stag hunting parties to create a "white stag in the headlights" phenomenon.

o Reepicheep used it as a chandelier.

Will the aforementioned torch still be functioning, after the Castle Scene? Of course, if we go by the book then there shouldn't be a problem with Caspian going off questing. But why would he put off searching for Bern, Rhoop & Co in order to explain the mysterious absence of light? It should probably be after VDT. Personally, I think Caspian brought it with him on the Dawn Treader, and Eustace pinched it to explore the dragon's cave - I mean, how else would he have found the bracelet in the pitch dark? :thinking: :smile:

How about an expanded Narnia timeline showing all these extra details? :idea:
