CMIIW, but primary mx has to has lower number which means higher priority.
To configure a backup-mx, you only need to put narnias.dk in rcpthosts of
the backup-mx server so that it will accept mails for narnias.dk when the
primary mx is down but it won't treat them as local mail. That way the
backup-mx will keep on trying to send those mail to the primary mx.
