THE MAGICIAN'S NEPHEW It is first so named by Polly Plummer , who arrives there when Digory Kirke's Uncle Andrew tricks her into putting on a magic ring, which instantaneously transports her into the wood. She falls asleep, and when Digory arrives later the children are both disoriented and at first they aren’t sure how long they have been there or even who they are. GEOGRAPHY The salient feature of the wood, other than the trees, is the presence of many pools of water. Initially, the pools appear to be just shallow puddles. However, when another magic ring is worn, the pool of water transports the wearer to a different world. When a world is destroyed, as Charn is in ''The Magician's Nephew'', the pool dries up. NATURE OF THE WOOD The wood is thus implied to be a place linking all worlds, including Narnia , Charn , and our own Earth. A sense of slothfulness grips all visitors, including the witch Jadis from Charn . |
