Chapter 8 Summary
Mr. Beaver confirms that Tumnus was taken away by the Secret Police, who are
under the control of the White Witch. He assumes that Tumnus has been turned to
stone. The children are horrified and want to rescue Tumnus, but Mr. Beaver tells
them that there is nothing they can do except go to Aslan The children beg to hear
more about Aslan, and they feel the same sensation as when his name was first
mentioned. Mr. Beaver tells them that Aslan is the King of Narnia, and that he is
the rightful King, as opposed to the Witch who is masquerading as Queen. Aslan is
not in Narnia often, the beaver says, but when he is, he makes everything right.
Susan asks if Aslan is a man, and Mr. Beaver tells her, quite sternly, that he is not a
man but a lion—the king of beasts. When the children express trepidation about
meeting a lion, Mr. Beaver tells them that they are supposed to be nervous, as no
one with any sense would feel completely fearless when meeting Aslan. Despite this,
Mr. Beaver says that Aslan is good.

"Don't you know who is the King of Beasts? Aslan is a lion—the Lion, the great
Lion."

• The children are to meet Aslan the next day at a place called the Stone
Table. They need to fulfil a prophecy—when the four thrones at Cair
Paravel are occupied by four "Sons of Adam and Daughters of Eve," it will
end bad times in Narnia. He tells them that the Queen has twisted this
prophecy into a justification for her reign. She says that she is human and
the rightful heir to the throne. She is not really human, however, but half
giant and half Jinn. She is descended on one side from Lilith, an
apocryphal and mythological figure who was said to be the original wife of
Adam.
• Suddenly they all notice that Edmund is missing. The children are
distraught and want to form a search party, but Mr. Beaver tells them
that this is unnecessary. He joined the White Witch, explains Mr. Beaver,
as there was a look in his eye that branded him a traitor. No one
remembers how much Edmund heard of the plan to meet Aslan. This is
crucial, because the less Edmund tells the Witch the better. The children
cannot afford to wait at the Beaver's home. They immediately begin their
journey to the Stone Table on routes the Witch would not expect them to
take. They hope that the Witch will not catch them before they can reach
Aslan.
