Lore & Background
Lewis introduces him as the young nephew and heir of King Miraz. By then 1,288 years have passed since the reign of High King Peter, and the Old Narnians have been in hiding for 305 years, driven out by Caspian's Telmarine ancestors; stories of talking beasts are forbidden in Miraz's castle. As a small boy, after both his parents have died, Caspian hears these stories from his nurse and is rebuked by Miraz for repeating them.
