Time difference in Narnia.

Postby heather_101 » May 20, 2011 10:33 pm

I was just wondering about the time stuff worked in Narnia and the real world. Like the first book they had been in Narnia for years, they were adults and when they returned they were adults. How does that work? For example. As you entered Narnia you were pregnant and you were in Narnia for months, would you have the baby? or would it be like no time had changed and if you did deliver the baby when you went back to the real world would you come back with the baby or be pregnant again?

I'm interesting to see what others think about this.

Lewis carefully avoided this sort of issue - his books were about children from our world going into Narnia to learn to know Someone here who is known as Aslan there.
When the children were ready (too old for Narnia) they stopped coming. The only adults who came in were Uncle Andrew, Frank and Helen.

Heather, the only possible person who came into Narnia as a married woman was Helen; she didn't leave Narnia, and Lewis didn't tell us her personal info!
It's just not important in Narnia.
“Not all of us can choose what we give up. The things we love are taken or are never ours at all. If we’re lucky, life is defined not by what we let go, but what we let in: friendship and kind words, frailty and hope.”

I think that you will return still pregnant. Look, Pevensies were adults in Narnia, but when they returned, it was the same moment when they came in to the wardrobe.
Lucy:Do you remember who really defeated the White Witch?
Peter: Yes.
Susan:No.
Lucy:Do you both believe in Narnia?
Narnians, Caspian and Edmund:We believe.
Susan and Peter:Shut up.
