THE battle was all over a few minutes after their arrival． Most of the enemy had been killed in the first charge of Aslan and his companions；and when those who were still living saw that the Witch was dead they either gave themselves up or took to flight. The next thing that Lucy knew was that Peter and Aslan were shaking hands．It was strange to her to see Peter looking as he looked now-his face was so pale and stern and he seemed so much older．
“It was all Edmund’s doing，Aslan，”Peter was saying．“We’d have been beaten if it hadn’t been for him．The Witch was turning our troops into stone right and left．But nothing would stop him． He fought his way through three ogres to where she was just turning one of your leopards into a statue．And when he reached her he had sense to bring his sword smashing down on her wand instead of trying to go for her directly and simply getting made a statue himself for his pains．That was the mistake all the rest were making．Once
her wand was broken we began to have some chance-if we hadn’t lost so many already．He was terribly wounded．We must go and see him．”
They found Edmund in charge of Mrs. Beaver a little way back from the fighting line．He was covered with blood，his mouth was open，and his face a nasty green colour．
“Quick，Lucy，”said Aslan．
And then，almost for the first time，Lucy remembered the precious cordial that had been given her for a Christmas present. Her hands trembled so much that she could hardly undo the stopper，but she managed it in the end and poured a few drops into her brother’s mouth．
“There are other people wounded，”said Aslan while she was still looking eagerly into Edmund’s pale face and wondering if the cordial would have any result．
“Yes，I know，”said Lucy crossly．“Wait a minute．”
“Daughter of Eve，”said Aslan in a graver voice，“others also are at the point of death．Must more people die for Edmund ？”
