    As The Witch in The Chronicles of Narnia; The Lion, The Witch, and The Wardrobe once stated, “Every traitor belongs to me as my lawful prey and that for every treachery I have a right to a kill,” (Quotev). She said this in reference to Edmund Pevensie, one of the four Pevensie children, as she decided on his fate. Edmund’s only hope was the strength of his family and friends, and even that of a lion named Aslan. There was a profound strain on each Prime Minister during World War Two. Britain had to rely especially on its allies, America and Canada, to protect its citizens, mainly children.
