He shows himself briefly when Edmund and Caspian are about to duel, when Lucy is tempted to cast a spell to make herself inhumanly beautiful and when Caspian is about to abandon his kingdom and sail to the end of the world. In earlier books in this series, Aslan redeemed Narnia from an endless winter and gave his life to save Edmund. Edmund tells Eustace that Aslan is the son of the unseen Emperor-Beyond-the-Sea. Reepicheep sails past the end of the world and into Aslan’s country, and Aslan sends the three children back to their own world.Īslan is a mighty lion, and his character is representative of Jesus Christ. After a short while, Aslan instructs Caspian to travel home, but without Edmund, Lucy, Eustace and Reepicheep. With their mission completed, Caspian and his crew decide to sail further and try to reach the world’s end.
The final three lords are discovered on the island of Ramandu, where they have been under an enchanted sleep for seven years. The adventurers, along with the crew, set sail again, and rescue one of the lost lords from an island of eternal nightmares. Lucy is successful, and Aslan arrives to offer her encouragement. Lucy goes to the abandoned home of a magician and finds the right spell to reverse their invisibility. The captors need a young girl to break their curse. Then the Dawn Treader narrowly escapes being wrecked by a sea monster before reaching Deathwater Island, a place where they find one of the lost lords turned into a gold statue at the bottom of an enchanted pool.Īt the next island, invisible people capture the crew. Eustace is spared when Aslan, a lion who rules Narnia, changes him back into a human. It is revealed that one of the lost lords was also turned into a dragon and died in that form. Next, the crew endures several days of stormy weather before landing on an island where Eustace is enchanted and turns into a dragon. Caspian ultimately manages to re-establish Narnian lordship over the isles, abolish the slave trade there and discover one of the missing lords. The Dawn Treader’s first stop is the Lone Islands where the main characters, including Caspian, are kidnapped by slavers. Three years have past in Narnian time since the children last saw Caspian.
Instead of being in the land of Narnia itself, the children are aboard a sailing ship called the Dawn Treader, and they take part in King Caspian X’s quest to find the seven lost lords of Narnia who went to explore the uncharted Eastern Seas and never returned. Edmund and Lucy are spending the summer with their annoying cousin Eustace when all three children are pulled through a magical painting and find themselves in the fantasy world of Narnia.
