The Chronicles of Narnia/Heartwarming

Everything About Fiction You Never Wanted to Know.


Books

  • In Prince Caspian, after a very tiring two-day trek across the wilderness, a lot of stress, and several arguments over whether or not Lucy really saw Aslan, the Pevensies finally meet him at Aslan's How. Peter goes down on one knee before him, takes his paw in both hands, and brings it to his face, and apologizes to Aslan for not having led them all better.
  • Later in the book, during Peter's duel with Miraz, Caspian frets that Peter will allow the jeering of the Telmarines to goad him into acting foolishly. Edmund calmly declares his faith in his brother: "Not he. You don't know him."
  • Reepicheep's people revealing just how devoted they are to their leader.
  • Aslan healing the woman on her deathbed, who turns out to be Caspian's childhood nurse.
  • The Horse and his Boy: When Aslan walks along the mountainside into Narnia with Shasta and reveals all the times he's watched over him his entire life, from his Moses in the Bulrushes incident to protecting him from jackals at the Tombs of the Ancient Kings.
  • In the same book, Hwin (who has spent the entire book being bossed around by Aravis and Bree) proves she has more figurative balls than either of them when she takes one look at Aslan and offers herself up as his meal. Better Than It Sounds.
  • Aslan's resurrection. If you don't have a lump in your throat either in the book where Aslan joyfully rumbles "Yes! It is more magic" or in the film where he's silhouetted by the sunrise, you're an incurable cynic.

Films

  • As mentioned above, Aslan's resurrection and how Susan and Lucy run up to him to embrace him.
  • The heroes are about to charge into (a seemingly hopless) battle.

Peter: For Narnia and for Aslan!

    • Though it's also a CMOA.
  • "We just want our brother back."
    • You think that's good? That's nothing compared to... "Once a king or queen of Narnia, always a king or queen. May your wisdom grace us until the stars rain down from the heavens."
  • Peter to Edmund, after Lucy heals him.

Peter: When are you gonna learn to do as you're told?
