<P> The White Witch comes in parley and demands her right to execute Edmund for his betrayal, citing Deep Magic from the Dawn of Time that gives her power over all traitors . In private conversation with her, Aslan offers himself in Edmund's place, and she accepts his offer, though none of Aslan's followers know this . Susan and Lucy, unable to sleep, follow Aslan to the Stone Table that night . They watch from afar as the White Witch asks her evil people to tie him up, shave him, and the Witch kills Aslan with her knife . </P> <P> With her greatest adversary dead, the Witch leaves with her army to prepare for war against the Narnians, convinced that she will win . Lucy, Susan, and a number of mice remove the bonds from Aslan's body; but as the Stone Table breaks they find that his body is gone . To their shock, Aslan reappears alive and well, thanks to a Deeper Magic from before the Dawn of Time . The Witch, having entered Narnia only at the Dawn of Time, had not known of this . Aslan explains that the Deeper Magic is invoked when an innocent willingly offers his life in place of a traitor's, causing death itself to be reversed until the victim is reborn . </P> <P> Aslan goes to the Witch's palace and, with his breath, brings the statues of her petrified enemies back to life . He leads them all to aid Peter, Edmund, and the Narnian army, who are fighting the Witch's army . At the conclusion of the battle, Aslan leaps upon the Witch and kills her . </P> <P> After the defeat of the evil forces, Aslan crowns the four children as Kings and Queens of Narnia, and during the celebration he quietly slips away . The children say nothing about it, for Mr. Beaver had warned them, "...one day you'll see him and another you won't" (a line assigned to Tumnus in the 2005 film), foreshadowing Aslan's role in the books to follow . </P>
