During the first part of the journey Aslan explained to Peter his plan of campaign. “As soon as she has finished her business in these parts，” he said， “the Witch and her crew will almost certainly fall back to her House and prepare for a siege. You may or may not be able to cut her off and prevent her from reaching it.” He then went on to outline two plans of battle.one for fighting the Witch and her people in the wood and another for assaulting her castle. And all the time he was advising Peter how to conduct the operations， saying things like， “You must put your Centaurs in such and such a place” or “You must post scouts to see that she doesn‘t do so.and.so，” till at last Peter said，“But you will be there yourself， Aslan.”
“I can give you no promise of that，” answered the Lion. And he continued giving Peter his instructions.
For the last part of the journey it was Susan and Lucy who saw most of him. He did not talk very much and seemed to them to be sad.
