a lions life


Aslan 
Backround
Aslan is a powerful lion from Narnia, a place only accessible by chance and children. It is not locatable on a map. Aslan has no family, but he loves everyone. He temporarily reigned over Narnia for several years before he left to go fight for another country. While he was out protecting other lands the white witch took over and caused Narnia to go into an endless winter with no christmas. Soon though four children would stumble into Narnia and fulfill the narnian prophecy. The prophecy is: two daughters of eve and two sons of adam coming to Narnia. The four humans are the rightful rulers of Narnia. Aslan has deemed humans to be the true rulers, and only they can bring his return. The prophecy is met by the Pevensie children: Peter, Edmund, Lucy, and Susan. Lucy stumbled into the world of Narnia during a game of hide and seek. All time stops in real life while you’re in Narnia.
Life
When the children stumbled into Narnia and brought upon a war with the white witch Aslan was called back to Narnia. Before he came back the children faced struggles of gathering supporters, mostly because of the terror the white witch had instilled upon them. When the witch heard of the possible return of Aslan she gathered a large terrifying army. By the time Aslan had got there the snow was already starting to melt signaling the end of the white witches reign. When he got there, he quickly realized that one child was missing. the children informed them there was a bump in the road, though, one of the four children betrayed them and took the witches side. Aslan knew that in order to get the child back he had to sacrifice himself. He did so without ever having done wrong, so when she killed him on the stone table it was not the end. Before killing him she shaved his mane and made a fur collar for herself, she made sure to humiliate him before killing him. He was resurrected the next day, after his sacrifice and helped win the largest war ever seen in Narnia. Aslan commended Edmund for taking on the witch, as a daunting task. It was important that he had first betrayed the siblings because he knew the witches power was only in the stick.The kids were crowned the rulers of Narnia shortly after. Aslan then headed on to the next country that needed help because that is his job. After restoring peace in Narnia he didn’t need to return.
