C. S. Lewis describes how he got the idea about writing the fairy tale about Narnia:
“Ever since I was 16 I’ve had a picture of a faun, standing with an umbrella and some parcels in the middle of a forest covered in snow. When I became godfather for little Lucy, I wanted to use this picture to tell her a story. Of course this picture was all in my fantasy.”
I the real version of The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe the protagonist, Lucy, meets the faun as the first thing I the land of Narnia. It’s with a coincidence that Lucy finds the way to get through to this weird land. There’s strange figure’s, the animals can talk and the trees can walk around. Narnia could be a paradise, but the cruel, white witch Jadis have overtaken the land and made it to a cold dictatorship – winter forever.
The faun, Tumnus, ricks the skin and invites Lucy home to a cup of tea. Tumnus is really happy to meet a human. “A daughter of Eva”. However, Jadis have made it as a law that every sight of a human in Narnia should be reported straight to her. Jadis is frightened of a prophecy about four children who will break her curse and bring back life and happy days to Narnia. Tumnus can temporary not betray Lucy. Therefore, Jadis must find another victim. Later on Jadis succeeds with getting Lucy’s brother Edmund to betray his siblings. Jadis almost has Narnia under control when the almighty lion Aslan steps in. A big fight about the future of Narnia is going on. Aslan dies but out of nowhere he rises from the dead on the most magic way and the prophecy comes true: The four children come into being kings and queens of Narnia. The world is saved.
