Adventure in NARNIA (52)

" She isn't a real queen at all, " answered Lucy; " she's a horrible witch, the White Witch. Everyone ー all the wood people ー hate her. She has made an enchantment over the whole country so that it is always winter here and never Christmas. "

" Oh, but we can't, we can't, " said Lucy suddenly; " don't you see ? We can't just go home, not after this. It is all on my account that the poor Faun has got into this trouble. He hide me from the Witch and showed me the way back. That's what it means by comforting the Queen's enemies and fraternizing with humans. We simply must try to rescue him. "
