At first Meg refuses and is upset. She tries to hide in Aunt Beast, but the creature will not hold her. Indeed she acts like a child throwing a tantrum . She finally relents and says that she will go, and it is at that moment that the nature of her quest becomes illuminated for her. She can then look at her father and see “love and pride.” Meg understands that it has to be her because she knows Charles Wallace the best.
