#FOR NARNIA

Alina information series: the lion, the witch, and the wardrobe pt.1

Before Alina was born, there was a second prophecy. A prophecy that told of a daughter of Aslan that would be born as a beacon of hope in Narnia, she would help defeat the white witch and ensure the future kings and Queens of Narnia sit on the thrones of Cair Paravel being the light in the dark for Narnia itself

Alina was originally born in a village of former sorcerers who no longer used magic since the white witch came to rule

Alina's village was loyal to one another and looked after each other like family.

After Alina was born, the cold ice winds started getting warmer, which was a sign that the guardian of the new Kings and Queens of Narnia was born sending a small beacon of hope to narnians near and far

When the winds reached the white witch, she immediately sent out her guards to every corner of the narnian icelands to look for the child, including herself

When Jadis was close, Jadis laid waste to Alina's village, killing and turning all those who hid the location of Alina and her mother into stone as a crime against the "Queen" of Narnia

Alina's mother ran into the woods to try and escape the queen with Alina in her arms, trying to find a safe place for them both.

When Alina's mother encountered the lamppost, she remembered her dream that Aslan came to her and told her that the journey her daughter would take would have to begin without her.

At first, Alina's mother didn't understand until she saw that lamppost, and so, she left Alina and ran to draw Jadis's attention to her

Alina, after a few minutes in the cold, was sent into the earthworld by the roaring distant winds of Aslans roar and at the doorsteps of Professor Kirk's home, where Alina was raised by Macready and Professor Digory Kirke

As Alina grew up, she was alone as a child except the occasional tea time with the professor.

But then, one day, while she was playing, she accidentally broke one of the professors' artifacts, which alerted Macready. So Alina ran to the room with the wardrobe to hide until Macready calmed down (which would take a loooong time)

As she went deeper into the wardrobe, she encountered the land of Narnia where she met Mr. Tumnus and had tea with him.

When Alina first stepped into Narnia, everyone immediately felt it. The winds grew warm, and the sun even showed itself. Mr. Tumnus even felt her warmth, and he immediately assumed who she was.

When the white witch felt the warm winds, she knew what it meant and immediately sent her scouts to find the source

Mr. Tumnus did consider turning Alina to the Queen, but he then saw a sign from Aslan and then immediately escorted Alina back to safety to the lamp post

When Alina went back to the earthworld, the winds of Narnia were cold once more in her absence.

When Alina went back, she tried to go back to Narnia, but the wardrobe was back to being a normal wardrobe.

Every day after she came back to the earthworld, she would go to the wardrobe and try to find a way to get back to Narnia

She continued to visit the wardrobe until she was 11.

Eventually, she forgot to go to the wardrobe and started thinking she was just imagining things and that the snowy world of Narnia was a dream

That was until the Pevensie siblings came into her life

My thoughts towards modern Narnia criticism: But when he saw many of the Pharisees and Sadducees coming for baptism, he said to them, “You offspring of vipers, who warned you to flee from the wrath to come? - Matthew 3:7

Extra: Before Alina was born, it was prophesied that a guardian of the sons of Adam and the daughters of Eve would be be born and would ensure their claim to the thrones of Cair Paravel and they would also be powerful sorceress to help defeat the white witch and end her reign. After Alina was born, the cold winter winds of Narnia blew a warmth of hope telling everyone of Narnia that the guardian was born including Jadis the white witch, so she sent her army to find her and eliminate her and those that harbored her. Alina's mother was confronted by Aslan in a dream. He told her about Alina's destiny, and he promised that she would be safe, but she would have to be separated from her family for her own safety. So Alina's mother gave her to Aslan, who transported her to earth in the home of Professor Diggory Kirk, where he raised her with Macready. As she grew up, she went back to Narnia once where she met Mr. Tumnus once, but after that one journey, she never went back again until she met the Pevensies.

After she met the Pevensies, she immediately loved them and felt a pull towards them to protect them and from then on she had never left their side, until they left Narnia to their home but Alina this time remained.

realized that the "problem of susan" misinterpretation is going to explode when the new narnia reboot drops and started chomping at the bit
