She has ruled over Narnia for a hundred years, plunging it into an eternal winter. She is cold-hearted, cruel, and fearsome, known for turning her enemies into stone. As a symbol of evil and enchantment, she embodies the opposite of Aslan, the great Lion who represents good and virtue in Narnia. The White Witch's desire for power and control drives much of the conflict in the story. She fears a prophecy that foretells her downfall at the hands of four human children, and thus she seeks to prevent their arrival in Narnia. When Edmund betrays his siblings and aligns himself with the White Witch, she takes advantage of his weakness to further her own plans. However, the arrival of Aslan and the children's involvement in his cause pose a threat to the White Witch's reign. Aslan sacrifices himself to save Edmund from the consequences of his betrayal, but ultimately rises again, defeating the White Witch and bringing an end to her oppressive rule. The character of the White Witch represents tyranny, deception, and the abuse of power. In contrast, the relationship between Aslan and the children showcases bravery, sacrifice, and redemption. Through the struggle between good and evil, Lewis explores themes of faith, loyalty, and the transformative power of love. The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe, with its vivid storytelling and memorable characters, continues to captivate readers of all ages. It has been adapted into various forms of media, including films and stage productions, ensuring its enduring legacy and enchantment..
