How does chronicles of narnia prince caspian end

While barely any Narnia time passes over the course of the film, it is a significant period for the narrative. Specifically, it marks the transition for Susan and Peter from childhood to adulthood and therefore their last visit to Narnia before the world's end.

The land of Narnia is tied directly to the idea and experiences of childhood, so when the children grow out of childhood, they grow out of Narnia as well. One year later on Earth setting the story in , Lucy, Edmund, and their cousin Eustace enter Narnia and are reunited with Caspian now king , Reepicheep the mouse, and the rest of the crew of the Dawn Treader.

In Narnia, only a few years have passed since the events of the second film. Like before, the children are returned home at the end with no real time having passed. Edmund and Lucy are informed by Aslan as Peter and Susan are at the end of Prince Caspian that they are grown up now and therefore can no longer return to Narnia, while Eustace is told he may return one day.

While the film series ended with The Voyage of the Dawn Treader , the books continue to tell the stories of Narnia for about two hundred and fifty years more, at which point the realm is ended during The Last Battle. The final book takes place in , meaning the last time jump is about seven years human-time to years Narnia-time. The series culminates in a wild chain of apocalyptic events and the shocking death of the core Earth characters minus Susan in a train accident.

These characters then join Aslan and the people of Narnia in a Heaven stand-in. Ultimately, the life and death of the world shown in The Chronicles of Narnia — years — takes less than 50 years on Earth. That said, among the primary theories for why Peter and Susan don't return to Narnia are their age and experiences. Despite what Lewis said, the Christian themes in The Chronicles of Narnia books are clear, constant, and, by the definition of many scholars, allegorical.

One of these Christian themes is the idea that many adults did have faith as children and merely let themselves grow out of it as they became older, choosing instead to follow the ways of the world and think too logically. In the Prince Caspian novel, Peter and Susan are told they will not return to Narnia simply because they are "getting too old. As one who has lost her belief in Narnia, Susan is the only one of her siblings who never truly return. Peter finally does go back to Narnia at the end of The Last Battle and, upon arriving, asks how it was possible after being told he would never return.

Eventually they reached Aslan's How - a mound that had been erected over the broken Stone Table - and assisted Caspian in gathering troops and preparing for battle with Miraz's army. Peter challenged Miraz to a duel as High King, and he was "victorious" as Miraz had tripped over a tussock and never got up. He was killed by the Lord Glozelle whom he had insulted earlier, in revenge. The Narnians - with Aslan's help - fared well in the battle that followed.

In the end, Aslan crowned Caspian King of Narnia and opened a door on the edge of a cliff. Many Telmarines gathered and were told to choose to live in Narnia or return to live forever in their homeland, Telmar. One Telmarine who went in first was told by Aslan that he'll have a good future there. Peter explained to Edmund and Lucy that Aslan had told him and Susan would not return to Narnia, and that it was time to go back to England because the two were getting old.

He also gave Susan back her horn, but she told him to keep it. After saying their goodbyes they went through the door that Aslan had made and were back in the railway station. The Chronicles of Narnia Wiki Explore. Explore Wikis Community Central. Register Don't have an account?
