Coriakin the Magician is a former star who currently oversees an island full of a mysterious race of invisible dwarf-like inhabitants called Duffers. He keeps a magic book full of powerful spells in his house, which Lucy seeks out in order to make the Duffers visible again. As it turns out, Coriakin planned for Lucy to use his book all along, and he reveals himself to be a friendlier, less dangerous character than he initially seemed.

“I will say the spell,” said Lucy. “I don’t care. I will.” She said I don’t care because she had a strong feeling that she mustn’t.

“Oh, Aslan,” said she, “it was kind of you to come.”
“I have been here all the time,” said he, “but you have just made me visible.”
Chapter 11
Quotes
That evening all the Narnians dined upstairs with the Magician, and Lucy noticed how different the whole top floor looked now that she was no longer afraid of it.
