We come to the final episode in our Perelandra series. With Ransom having defeated the Unman and being nurtured back to health by this perfected world, he encounters the eldila, Malacandra and Perelandra, who bring him to the King and Queen on the Holy Island. There he learns of the temptation of the King and the recovery of the Queen, of a world saved by the virtue of its founding parents. Confused, still, by the Unman's assault on his imagination during their ride on the fishes, Ransom seeks clarity on the meaning of the small over against the immensities of Maleldil's creation. In answer, Malacandra and Perelandra offer him the vision of the Great Dance, how each individual and each community--because they are rooted in Maleldil himself--are the center and thus, infinitely loved and valued.
After his intellectual assault fails, the Unman shifts his strategy to assaulting the Green Lady's imagination. Ransom grows in desperation as he realizes she is being worn down. Three times he thinks, this cannot go on. Then a grisly idea occurs to him.
