Golden Age Prophecy

The Golden Age Prophecy is described as Deeper Magic from Before the Dawn of Time and was the ancient prediction that foretold the ushering in of the Golden Age of Narnia. It was believed to have been forecast sometime even before the creation of the world of Narnia. It was an incantation as follows:


 * Wrong will be right, when Aslan comes in sight,
 * At the sound of his roar, sorrows will be no more,
 * When he bares his teeth, winter meets its death,
 * And when he shakes his mane, we shall have spring again.


 * When Adam's flesh and Adam's bone,
 * Sit at Cair Paravel in throne,
 * The evil time will be over and done.

The Golden Age began in Narnian-year 1000, when the four young Pevensie siblings entered Narnia from England through the magical wardrobe of Professor Digory Kirke. According to the prophecy, Aslan's reappearance in Narnia would mark the return of spring and death of the hundred-year winter, after which, the formerly oppressed Narnians' spirits would be revived. The "evil time" would end with the coronation of a human as Narnia's new king or queen. As events unraveled, it became clear that "Adam's flesh and Adam's bone" did not refer to one, but rather four, human beings destined to become Narnia's next rulers. The four Pevensie children were those who had the power to defeat the White Witch Jadis, the unrightful queen of Narnia; their eventual coronation at Cair Paravel (the ancient castle of rightful Narnian kings and queens) did indeed end the Age of Winter and begin the short-lived yet legendary Golden Age.
