"But there's still a lot of time to mend, and maybe someday she'll make it to Aslan's country, in her own way."
Just love that in the end it was Susan who wrote the Lion, the witch, and the wardrobe.
This a very insightful, tender, sensitive and beautiful ending for Susan. Your portrayal of Susan Pevensie as she first destroys herself in her grief is so real, raw and honest and empathetic before she finally makes the transition from heartbreak and such a deep loss of self due to losing all of her family in finding new happiness within a healthy and heartwarming relationship with a man who shares a family connection with the late Professor who was of a similar, philosophical mind to Aslan. All of this makes for a timely response and a reward from the universe in Susan's own world with the sudden appearance of a man in her life so she may begin to work through her grief with him since in falling in love with Professor Kirke's nephew, (who for your video and summary purposes could most likely be the non-canonical result of a marriage and family with Polly Plummer) the world is driving Susan to find her faith in life, love and ultimately, in Aslan himself again. It's a reward well earned for Susan, just as, likewise, for C.S Lewis his marriage to Joy Davidman could also be seen as a reward for the suffering he endured upon losing his mother when he was a child.
This may well be a theoretical ending for the character of Susan since it isn't from the words of C.S. Lewis himself, however, as non-canonical as it may be, I am more than happy; delighted in fact to adopt it as canon since your character ending for her does due justice to the utter devastation, hopelessness and despair that C.S. Lewis's original Susan would no doubt be experiencing off the page in "The Last Battle" without changing her by keeping her as she is. The concept of her utter grief and loss leading her to alcoholism and an unhinged, uninhibited lifestyle in which she neglects her basic, mental and spiritual needs in favour of 'enjoying' a high nightlife is indicative of the deep, dark cloud of depression and a huge loss of faith in life, love and the world. It's gritty, realistic and brutal, lending Susan a darker edge with an unfortunate and tragic penchant for self-destruction which is all too relatable.
The depth of Susan Pevensie's need for a Saviour while having to process her bereavements (even if she doesn't think she needs or even wants one) while at the lowest and worst time of her life on earth is immense, so immense that it would seem, in the case of this incredibly well crafted, well read summary of the happy ending she no doubt deserved after the events of her family's deaths that the Saviour, Christ Himself answered and sent her the nephew of Professor Kirke to help her both to embrace and navigate her way through the problem of pain and find her way back to Him again through the healing power of a romantic relationship. After all, the love between a man and a woman can be as holy as the love within a family and between friends, and from the way she allows her man to take charge and take care of her and help her to get back up and stand tall and happy, it sounds like Susan must have been uttering a desperate cry to the universe and so, who better to be ever so deserving, so very deserving of the love of someone, anyone in the aftermath of "The Last Battle" upon finding out about her family's deaths so that she wouldn't be alone in her grief? That is Susan's last battle; the battle inside herself on whether she will decide to get back up or not and move on in a closeness both with herself and with Christ. The revelation of getting that happy ending, which C.S Lewis's Susan may well think impossible at the end of the main series due to her grief, and finally getting together with a man and getting married in such a gorgeous, well earned happy ever after here in this video that is so well done makes for a such a good, full character arc as she comes full circle in learning to put new trust in Christ as she knew Him in Narnia in the hope of receiving the same reward as her family found in Narnia with a Second Coming along with her beloved husband; the husband who helped her to believe in Narnia and Aslan again.
Thank you so much for your kind words! Although I don't have much time to work on the channel anymore, I still monitor it and upkeep it as much as I can and a comment like this deserves a response. I am glad you enjoyed it, but also saw the underlying message of Christ and the connection between Him and Aslan. I also just didn't seem right how Susan was simply lost in her "grown up" ways. As a New Testament Christian myself, I have seen many people fall to the wayside, and I have stumbled myself quite a bit, but if someone is truly in Christ, they know deep down what they are doing is not the right thing. I wanted to show how Susan, although she stumbled a bit, came back to the truth. It isn't about Narnia, it isn't about being a queen, it's about having that personal relationship with Jesus Christ and keeping His commandments no matter the cost. Once again, thank you so much for your kind words, Stella. I wish you the best...

@@NarniaLore Thank you very much for your open and honest reply - your channel is awesome; it's one of my absolute favourites as it is so cool, so detailed and so ripe with spiritual resonance and meaning and I have always been and will continue to be a Friend of Narnia as I too am also a confirmed Christian.
I'm going to adopt that as cannon for this story. I like to think that she tells the story and when she is old, and has grown kids and grandkids of her own, she leaves this world surrounded by love and the next generation and when she opens her eyes she's young again and with her family and Aslan.
Susan was meant to be a stand-in for CS Lewis and his earlier Atheism
Poor Susan!
I would go further, and say she is meant to stand in for the average christain. Having grown up christain, I have seen many leave faith behind, and currently am in that pit. Knowing how incredible and detailed Lewis was with his writing of the series, I think he wrote susan's story as incomplete as a sort of acknowledgement to those who fall away/loose their faith.
@@jacobhiatt1901 ok ! Who plays Susan in the series
that's so cool,I had a similar take on it but it took place in the 21st century where susans grandson or great grandson from america helps her believe similar to luke when he brings his father back to the light side
I liked that it ended with Susan dealing with her loss and working through her pain. Two thumbs up.
What
It's pretty good, but I think you should put more emphasis on her remembering Narnia, her adventures there, and the Great Lion she faced there. That was the big issue with her forgetting; she had stopped having the heart of a child that He had tried to form in her in Narnia and that He had said to possess (Matt 18:3). Other than that, it's pretty good. A-
I loved it! It's only fitting that she make up for denying Narnia by telling it's story. That way, her siblings, cousin, and parents will never die.
what about caspian
When you said they stopped at a lamppost and it was snowing, I thought they had entered Narnia again. Or maybe her boyfriend would tell her that he had gone there.
I don’t think so cause not everyone knows about it but Aslan left her on Earth for a reason
Wowsers, I would love to see this published as a novel. Just one thing. I would want her to have a daughter named Lucy
I felt really bad for Susan being the only survivor. Her ENTIRE family got killed by one accident and she survived because she wasn't there with them. The writer CS Lewis tries to make a book of what happened to Susan after the Last Battle, but he died before he could write it. I just hope she would move on from her loss.
“Once a King or Queen of Narnia, ALWAYS a King or Queen of Narnia.” -Aslan
Lewis allowed for Christians to go rouge for a time. How many times has it happened to Christians that in adolescence they leave their faith only to return in adulthood.
Fan fiction
I think at some point Susan met C.S. Lewis and told him about the adventures in Narnia she and her relatives had.
I think the last battle having no susan was a shame but nobody can ever really know what happened to susan
Like how it came full circle
It started off well and ended badly.
Susan just got to get back to Aslan's County, she is a Queen of Narnia, and once a Queen or King of Narnia always a King or Queen of Narnia so she does get get Aslan,s County in the end a nd thats what we all want to see in the end her standing before Aslans , and her bothers3 and sister and all the ones she knew from Narnia thats got to be the greatest ending that isnt writtin yet
I totally agree with you! I may delve into a fanfiction about that!
I like to think about the fact that Susan doesn’t have any of these Qualities but she still has a lot going for her it kind of went full circle
I’ve actually read a really good fanfic where she joined the freedom riders movement and writes about politics under the name Tumnus 😊I have my own version of what happened but that’s to me
Please tell me
I like that alot I'm going to believe that happened to her
That was the best thing that could have ever happened to susan
plus I still think you should make a fb page and a Twitter account to Narnia lore to get new subscribers and grow your channel
Rompiste mi corazón. Pensé que ese era el verdadero final :(
I'm sorry that it doesn't work because we know what happened to Susan. She fulfilled the betrayal Edmund only wanted to do, forswearing the responsibilities of a queen to follow the madness of selfish Americanness (where only you and your good time count).
It was a good try, though, and you're quite good at these. I just found your channel tonight, and I've been having fun.
I'm glad you're enjoying the videos, but I would like to respectfully request that you not assume an entire nation of people are selfish and don't care about others simply because of how you perceive we are. There are selfish people, yes, but I would like to see a place where no one is. You are very welcome to stay here and enjoy the videos, but I will not tolerate rude comments about other people's nations and cultures. Thank you very much,

@@NarniaLore As you wish.
Susan doesn't believe in Narnia anymore
I think C.S. Lewis is grand daughter is Susan the lion the witch and the wardrobe is dedicated to her. He says maybe when your old and start be living in fairy tales again. You will read. You grew up way too fast.
I believe she will believe in Narnia soon. You're just thinking she'll never.
@@user-zs2vm8wc8qok
@@elcucyat first she thought Lucy was just dream that she was in Narnia
She lost Peter Edmund and Lucy in one of the books
Edmund changed, Eustace changed, Susan can also change. Maybe when she has her first child, she will rediscover how to view the world as a child.
