Aslan and the stone table

In chapters 12-13 Edmond has been walking all day long. He is very tired, and needs to rest. While they were walking the Dwarf and Witch were deciding what to do with him. When Edmond was about to be killed he fainted, and was saved by a search party Aslan sent. Before Edmond fainted, Lucy, Peter , Susan and the beavers finally arrived to the stone table and met Aslan. They were all shocked yet, exited to see him. Edmond was finally saved and he had a long talk with Aslan, he was finally at the good side. The Witch came to claim power over Edmond, because she is in charge of traitors. So, Aslan and the Witch had a long talk and walk deciding on who will stay with Edmund. An agreement was made, and Edmond will stay with Aslan. Everyone was very happy about this, but the Witch had a evil smile on her face. 

Quote analisys 

"Have you forgotten the Deep Magic?" asked the Witch.

"Let us say I have forgotten it," answered Aslan gravely. "Tell us of this Deep Magic."

"Tell you?" said the Witch, her voice growing suddenly shriller. "Tell you what is written on that very Table of Stone which stands beside us? Tell you what is written in letters deep as a spear is long on the fire-stones on the Secret Hill? Tell you what is engraved on the scepter of the Emperor-Beyond-the-Sea? You at least know the Magic which the Emperor put into Narnia at the very beginning. You know that every traitor belongs to me as my lawful prey and that for every treachery I have a right to kill.... And so that human creature is mine. His life is forfeit to me. His blood is my property... unless I have blood as the Law says all Narnia will be overturned and perish in fire and water."

"It is very true," said Aslan, "I do not deny it." (C.S Lewis,141-142)

In here, the Witch is bargaining Edmund´s life. She wants to be sure to not leave with her hands empty. The Witch wants to cause some pain.

"The Witch was turning away with a look of fierce joy on her face ..." (C.S Lewis, 144)

This quote shows that the queen is up to something. I wonder what is her plan, what is she going to do next?

conclusion

In conclusion, Lucy, Edmund, Peter and Susan finally met Aslan. But, the Witch wants to cause more trouble. I wonder what she is planning.
