S. Lewis]]' ''[[The Chronicles of Narnia]]''. She is the youngest of the four Pevensie children, and the first to find the Wardrobe entrance to [[Narnia]] in ''[[The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe]]''. Of all the Pevensie children, Lucy is the closest to [[Aslan]]. Also, of all the humans who have visited Narnia, Lucy is perhaps the one that believes in Narnia the most. She is ultimately crowned "Queen Lucy the Valiant," co-ruler of Narnia along with her two brothers and her sister. Lucy is the central character of the four siblings in the novels. Lucy is portrayed by [[Georgie Henley]] in the [[2005]] film ''[[The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe]]'' and she returned to reprise her role in the [[2008]] film ''[[The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian]]''.<ref name="pc-return"/> Georgie's elder sister, [[Rachael Henley]], portrays the older Queen Lucy at the end of the first film. ==Biography== ===Prior story=== Lucy was born in [[1932]] and is 8 years old when she appears in ''The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe''. By The ''Last Battle'' she is 17 years old. Lucy was named after Owen Barfield's daughter. Lewis and Barfield had a very close relationship. ===''The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe''=== Lucy's siblings, [[Peter Pevensie|Peter]], [[Susan Pevensie|Susan]] and [[Edmund Pevensie|Edmund]], do not believe her about Narnia at first, but later they all find their way to Narnia. In the first story, ''[[The Lion, The Witch and The Wardrobe]]'', she is the first of the Pevensies to enter Narnia through a magical wardrobe in [[Digory Kirke|Professor Kirke's]] old house, and sees Narnia in the One Hundred Year Winter, under the rule of Jadis the [[White Witch]], the [[evil]] self-styled Queen of Narnia. There she meets [[Tumnus|Mr. Tumnus the Faun]] and, later, the Beavers. While traveling with her siblings and beavers she and they are given gifts. She's given two gifts from [[Father Christmas]]: a magical [[Cordial (medicine)|cordial]] that can heal almost any injury , and a small [[dagger]] with which to defend herself "at great need". Later, she and her companions come to Aslan's camp as intended. Later from that, she comforts Aslan with Susan as he walks to his death. Both girls also witness his sacrifice. While their brothers are going to war, Lucy and her sister see [[Aslan]] come back to life and help him wake the creatures in the White Witch's castle, which were turned to stone. They meet with the brothers at the end of the battle. At [[Cair Paravel]], she is crowned as Her Majesty Queen Lucy by Aslan to the [[throne]] as co-joint ruler of Narnia, thus marking the fulfilling of the ancient [[prophecy]] and the end of the White Witch's [[reign]]. Through her reign, she comes to the name by her people: Queen Lucy the Valiant. She and her siblings make a Golden Age in Narnia. Late in the Golden Age while hunting for the white stag, she notices while hunting through Lantern Waste the lantern where she met Mr.Tumnus. She stops her siblings and they look and wonder what is it. Lucy, in a dreamy voice, says Spare Oom, which was said by Mr. Tumnus when they met, and runs to the wardrobe with her siblings following. All fall out of the wardrobe where no time had passed. ===''Prince Caspian''=== Lucy travels to Narnia again with her three siblings in ''[[Prince Caspian]]''. In that book, Lucy is the only one to see Aslan at first, and she has a terrible time convincing her brothers and sister as well as Trumpkin the dwarf that he had returned, echoing her trials early in the first book (though Edmund ultimately trusts her, given that she had turned out to be right about Narnia during their last visit). Aslan tells her to try again, and says that she must follow him alone if they refuse to come with her. Lucy comments that Aslan has grown larger. He explains that he appears larger to her because she is older. ===''The Voyage of the Dawn Treader''=== While Susan travels with Mr. and Mrs. Pevensie to America and Peter studies with Professor [[Digory Kirke]], Lucy, Edmund and their cousin [[Eustace Scrubb|Eustace]] are drawn into Narnia through a magical painting in [[The Voyage of the Dawn Treader|''The Voyage of the'' Dawn Treader]]. This is very much Lucy's book, written largely from her point of view. However, at the end Aslan firmly tells her she has become, like Susan, too old to experience the wonders of Narnia. ===''The Horse and His Boy''=== In ''[[The Horse and His Boy]]'', Queen Lucy, now a young woman, rides to the aid of [[Archenland]]. She is described by [[Corin (Narnia)|Prince Corin]] as being more like a tomboy, unlike her sister, Queen Susan, who is a "proper lady". She helps King Lune to welcome Aravis to Anvard, and helps to get Aravis's room and clothes ready. ===''The Last Battle''=== In ''[[The Last Battle]]'', she plays a minor part as she returns to Narnia again with her brothers, High King Peter and King Edmund, along with Eustace Scrubb, Jill Pole, Polly Plummer, and Digory Kirke. There, she witnesses the destruction of Narnia and lives in the new Narnia created by Aslan. In the new Narnia, all the people and animals who lived in the previous Narnia during its existence return and join together. Lucy also meets her old friend [[Mr. Tumnus]] the [[Faun]] again, and Aslan tells her about a railway accident that occurs in England in which she, her brothers, her parents, Polly, and Digory died, though it isn't for sure that Jill and Eustace did. The Pevensies (excluding Susan) apparently live in the new Narnia forever. ==Portrayals== *In the 1980s [[The Chronicles of Narnia (TV serial)|BBC serial]], Lucy is portrayed by English actress [[Sophie Wilcox]]. *In [[Disney]]'s ''[[The Chronicles of Narnia (film series)|The Chronicles of Narnia]]'' films, Lucy is portrayed by English actress [[Georgie Henley]] as a child and [[Rachael Henley]] as an adult. ==Other appearances== Although reviews of ''The Oz/Wonderland Chronicles'' issue 0 indicated that [[Alice (Alice's Adventures in Wonderland)|Alice]], [[Wendy Darling]] and [[Dorothy Gale]] shared their dorm with [[Susan Pevensie]], a recent review of the now-released issue 1 indicates many fans are believing this is actually meant to be Lucy, and not Susan. She is spoofed in the 2007 film ''[[Epic Movie]]'' as "Lucy the Dumbshit". ==External links== * [http://www.narniafans.com/books/bk_vdt.php ''The Voyage of the'' Dawn Treader at Narnia Fans] * [http://www.narniaweb.com NarniaWeb] ==References== {{Portalpar | Narnia | Narnia_aslan.jpg | 50}} {{reflist}} * {{Harvard reference|Surname1=Ford|Given1=Paul|Authorlink=Paul F.
