Tumnus didn't believe he and his father were alike in any way. It's likely he said this because his father was willing to give his life for the freedom of Narnia, while Tumnus at the time was working for Jadis. The two, however, looked very much alike. Tumnus lived in a comfortable cave by the side of the Lamp-post in the Lantern Waste , during the last years of the reign of the White Witch.
When Lucy Pevensie first entered Narnia through the Wardrobe, Tumnus was the first Narnian she met; they bumped into each other by accident at the Lamp-post. Tumnus had never seen a human, and after being informed by Lucy that she was in fact one, he invited her to his home for tea.
Along with many other Narnians, Tumnus was bent by fear to obey the laws of the White Witch Jadis, one of which was to inform her of, or deliver to her, any Daughters of Eve or Sons of Adam that were found in Narnia. This was to prevent the fulfilment of the Golden Age Prophecy , which the Witch knew meant her downfall.
Although Tumnus resented the rule of the Witch, he was afraid to disobey her. He planned to lull Lucy to sleep, kidnap her, and take her to the Witch. Lucy and Tumnus had tea, afterwards he played her a tune on his Narnian flute, of which he was quite an accomplished player, and she nodded off. However, he could not go through with the immoral plan.
His talk with Lucy made him realize what a heinous act it would be to betray her. Bursting into tears, he apologized to Lucy, told her about the Witch, and risked his life to help her escape back through the Wardrobe to Earth. Lucy visited Tumnus again on her second visit to Narnia, and inadvertently brought her brother, Edmund Pevensie , with her. Lucy Pevensie : He has a nice face. He looks a lot like you! Tumnus : No. No, I'm not very much like him at all, really.
Lucy Pevensie : My father's fighting in the war. Tumnus : My father went away to war too. But that was a long, long time ago. Tumnus : Because, I believe in a free Narnia. Lucy Pevensie : Oh, I should go. Tumnus : It's too late for that, now. I'm such a terrible faun. Lucy Pevensie : Oh, no. You're the nicest faun I've ever met. Tumnus : Then I'm afraid you've had a very poor sampling.
Lucy Pevensie : You can't have done anything that bad. Tumnus : It's not something I have done, Lucy Pevensie. It's something I am doing. Lucy Pevensie : [suspiciously] What are you doing? Tumnus : [whispers and in tears] I'm kidnapping you. He is a male Faun, a former servant of the White Witch , and later, a high official in the Kingdom of Narnia. Tumnus is the son of a faun who had fought in a failed revolution against the White Witch's Army, who like Tumnus himself, was born in the Age of Winter.
He lives in a comfortable cave near the Lamp-post. During the last years of the reign of the White Witch. When Lucy Pevensie first enters Narnia through the Wardrobe, Tumnus is the first Narnian she meets; they bump into each other by accident at the Lamp-post. Tumnus had never seen a human, and after being informed by Lucy that she is in fact a Daughter of Eve a human female , he invites her to his home for tea.
He later reveals to Lucy, that he has an explicit knowledge of the previous era. Along with many other Narnians , Tumnus is bent by fear to obey the laws of the White Witch Jadis , one of which is to inform her of or deliver to her, any Daughters of Eve or Sons of Adam that are found in Narnia. This is to prevent the fulfillment of the Golden Age Prophecy, which the Witch knows means her downfall.
