It is interesting that hey have updated the information you get when you click on Lord Bern:

Narrowhaven is a port city on the Lone Islands, nearly forgotten to the rest of Narnia. It is fraught with dangers, but here the first of the seven swords will be found. Will Caspian be able to reclaim the islands in the name of Narnia? Can you find all seven swords hidden across all of the Islands?

I would imagine that the last sentence is directed at us and will be some new part of the website gameplay.

They also seem to have updated the information you get when you click on the Water Nymph, particuarly the end, presumably because everyone was jumping to the conclusion that she would see the Water Nymph in Narrowhaven:

OLD: "These beautiful creatures are as mysterious as the ocean's depths. What do they portend for the voyage ahead"

NEW: "..... Lucy is delighted when she sees one from the Dawn Treader deck, but what do they portend for the voyage?"

There is also now a text box and some information associated with the Minotaur.

Cool, B-) thanks for telling us, this is great new data.

They used "Despite" two times in as many sentences! How unpolished. :-o [-( :p

I would be so disappointed if the octopus seen around Narrowhaven has anything to do with the sea monster. It would be way too much like Pirates of the Caribbean and Clash of the Titans. I very much prefer the Sea Serpent.

I'm 99% sure that it is going to be a sea serpent. Didn't the director say in an interview that there was a big battle with a sea serpent and a dragon near the end?

Maybe, but I thought that a lot of the people working on the movie have simply referred to it as a "sea monster" and not specifically, a "sea serpent".

Yours wasn't the only name I recognized in the top 100. I saw AJAiken and PattertwigsPal as well and that was skimming. :D

Cool. I made it in the top 100. I finally figured out today how to see more than the top ten.

I can't get the picture from Narrowhaven to download either. Did anyone else notice that the pictures of the people don't always seem to be from that background scene? I'm sure the picture of Edmund is the same we have seen elsewhere and Lucy doesn't seem quite right either. I'm not sure if any of them are actually part of the original picture.

So that people who haven't read the books will still have some surprises.

Maybe, Dinode, but I don't think distinguishing the sea monster as a sea serpent specifically, is that big of a spoiler.

After logging in and finding today's treasure (which was easy ;) ), I found 4 more hidden items on the two islands. Then guess what? I unlocked the "Master of Mysteries" achievement (finding 20 hidden items) for 1000 points! I made the leaderboard for the first time! B-) :D/

40 minutes ago I was #87. But now I'm #89. :p

EDIT
@Pattertwig: I noticed your name early, when the leaderboard was first published. Congrats! But it took me some time to figure out how to move the cursor too.

Current leaderboard standings for NW-ers I know (more than 18000 pts = 2 sails!)
ICARUS = 8
AJAIKEN = 9
CASPIAN11TH = 45
SON OF ASLAN = 52
PATTERTWIGS PAL = 62
KELLEY [220CHRISTIAN] = 89

I'm so close to making the leaderboard, and I will not rest until I make it onto it!

I just checked and was able to download the Narrowhaven picture.

Some people on the Official Facebook page found out that the Sword Training game is finally online. Its pretty nifty! Kind of like the sort of game you might get on the Nintendo DS.

http://www.narnia.com/us/games/sword

EDIT: You can access the game through the "Games" menu on the front page, and i assume it will later be available through Narrowhaven. However (and this may just of been me) but after completing the game via the "Games" menu (its actually fairly tough to beat) i didn't get the achievement for playing it/completing it (whatever it was for) it until i subsequently went onto the Narrowhaven area, even though i was logged on before, so its probably worth keeping that in mind :)
