From what information Durah is providing, it really does as if the Elephants are a matriarchal or matrilineal society. She really does not seem to pay much attention to males at all, and even to her Kings! At least Peter does not take offense when Durah nearly mows him down and does not even acknowledge who he really is. :-)
Oh yes, it's about time we learn what "Our Narnians" mean. I've been wondering about that since the first chapter.
"...he was willing to agree with her if she said the earth revolved around the sun." Oh Edmund. Forgot that bit about your own world's history, did you? And that Telmarine seems pretty trustworthy, though appearances can be deceiving. I'm glad that they have the Doves to be able to keep an eye on things and pass messages between the siblings.
And now with Susan's arrival, I'm sure Edmund will remain a bit more... sober and focused on this mission now. :-)
