She'll cut off my tail, saw off my horn, pluck out my
beard, and wave her wand over my beautiful cloven
hooves, turning them into awful solid hooves like a terrible horse. And if she gets extremely angry, she'll turn me into stone, and I'll be nothing more than a fawn statue in her dreadful mansion until the four thrones at Cair Paravel are filled. In The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe, for example, Aslan is sacrificed at the stone table in return for Edmond's life. Susan and Lucy mourn him and tend to his body, but he suddenly returns from the dead the next morning. In the book, Aslan is embarrassed in front of the witch's followers at the stone table as they shave his mane and muzzle him, but he does nothing to save himself or harm the witch. Just as Jesus was screamed at, spit on, and beaten in front of the entire crowd but never said anything to them. When the girls were grieving over his death, the table splintered as a sign of the resurrection. Similarly, when Mary went to check on Jesus' body in the tomb, she discovered the stone rolled away and the tomb empty.
