“Those who run first do not always run last，” said the Centaur. “And why should we let the enemy choose our position instead of choosing it ourselves？ Let us find a strong place.”
“That‘s wise， your Majesty， that’s wise，” said Trufflehunter.
“But where are we to go？” asked several voices.
“Your Majesty，” said Doctor Cornelius， “and all you variety of creatures， I think we must fly east and down the river to the great woods. The Telmarines hate that region. They have always been afraid of the sea and of something that may come over the sea. That is why they have let the great woods grow up. If traditions speak true， the ancient Cair Paravel was at the river.mouth. All that part is friendly to us and hateful to our enemies. We must go to Aslan‘s How.”
“Aslan’s How？” said several voices. “We do not know what it is.”
