The Chronicles of Narnia: The Voyage of the Dawn Treader recap
Edmund and Lucy are staying with their unpleasant cousin Eustace in Cambridge when a painting of a ship floods the room and pulls all three into the sea of Narnia. They are rescued by King Caspian on the Dawn Treader, who is searching for seven lords his uncle exiled. At the Lone Islands, they free people being sold to a green mist that takes them away, and they learn that the seven lords' swords must be laid on Aslan's Table to defeat an evil force on the Dark Island. On an island of invisible creatures, Lucy reads a spell to become as beautiful as Susan and sees that it would erase her. On another island, the greedy Eustace is turned into a dragon, and he becomes a friend to the crew, especially Reepicheep. The mist tempts each of them with what they want most.
