Chapter 11

While Edmund spent his time, the dwarf finished preparing the witch's sledge. Edmund requested some Turkish Delight from her. She said, "Silence, fool!" and clapped her hands. Then, another dwarf appeared. She ordered the dwarf to give Edmund some food and drink. The dwarf went away.

The dwarf brought him some water and dry bread. Edmund said, "Take it away. I don't want dry bread." However, the witch frowned her face and then he started to eat. It was so stale he could hardly get it down.

While he was still chewing, the first dwarf came back and said the sledge was ready. The witch rose and went out of the hall with Edmund.

He sat down on the sledge beside her. She called Maugrim who was a wolf and he came. She said, "Take with you the swiftest of your wolves and go at once to the house of the Beavers, and kill whatever you find there." Also she said if they find them, what she would do. (Question) They promised to obey her and started to go to the stone table. They were as fast as a galloping horse.

After a few minutes, Maugrim had called another wolf and was with him down on the dam and sniffing at the Beaver's house. Of course they found it empty.

Meanwhile the dwarf whipped the reindeer, they started to run. Edmund felt cold because he didn't wear a coat. He would have liked to have met the others at that moment, even Peter.

As they travelled to travelled , the witch said, "What have we here? Stop!" The dwarf stopped. Edmund thought that she said let's eat some breakfast, but she had stopped for a different reason. They walked a little, they saw squirrels, satyrs, a dwarf and an old dog-fox. The dwarf and animals had been enjoying a merry party. She asked them,"What is the meaning of this?" Nobody answered. Then she spoke something angrily, then one fox said, " If I might make so bold as to drink your Majesty's very good health--------" "Who gave them to you?" said the witch. The fox stammered, "F-F-F-Father Christmas." She was surprised because he hadn't been here since she used magic.
She killed them and gave Edmund the food that they ate.

They started to run again. The reindeer weren't running as well as they had been running up till now because the air grew foggier and warmer and the reindeer were tired. The sledge ran slower and slower.

The dwarf said to her they couldn't go with the sledge. It was becoming Spring. There were many flowers and they felt hot with their coats. So, the witch decided to walk. The witch ordered the dwarf, "Do as you're told. Tie the hands of the human creature behind it and keep hold of the end of the rope. And take your whip. And cut the harness of the reindeer; they'll find their own way home."
The dwarf obeyed her. So, Edmund was the first , the dwarf was the second and the witch was the last in a row as they walked.

While they walked, they realized this was spring. The dwarf said this was spring. her winter had been destroyed, this was Aslan's doing. Then the witch said, "If either of you mentions that name again, he shall instantly be killed."

==============MY FEELING ABOUT THIS CHAPTER 11=========
I guess that Aslan has a lot of power. The witch was cruel. I wanted Edmund to escape from her.
