- "Two sights have seen," said Farsight. "One was Cair Paravel filled with dead Narnians and living calormenes:and your subjects flying from the city — this way and that, into the woods.Cair Paravel was taken from the sea.Twenty great ships of Calormen put in there in the dark of the night before last night." No one could speak. "And the other sight, five leagues nearer than Cair Paravel, was Roonwit the Centaur lying dead with a Calormene arrow in his side."
- ―Farsight to Tirian[src]
The Extermination of Cair Paravel or the Cair Paravel Massacre, was the final conflict which ended the monarchy of the Kingdom of Narnia, leaving the country invaded by Calormenes. It took place in the Calormene Conquest and left all the nobles, servants, and guests of the castle Cair Paravel slaughtered by the Calormene Army. The Narnian King Tirian was not in the castle at the time of the attack.
