Into the Wardrobe

How I read it was Jane would have had a child who would have done, great good. She didn't, her time for that child has past. Denniston had "the future of Logres" in her, so what could that imply? Just a normal member, or a future Leader? I took it to be the future leader. If the child were just a member then I do not think Lewis would say "THE future" but rather imply part of the future. If I were told I was the future of anything it connotes more than just membership but actual leadership. I could be wrong though and thank you for responding.

But what about Merlin's Fatalistic comment?

Or Lewis’s understanding of the world before The Savior?

I think I understand the first two points as was explained, but then wouldn't Jane's freedom to not have that particular child be the first free act ever done? If everything else that has ever happened lead to that, then she was supposed to but didn't, does it not imply that the act of not conceiving the child was the first real free act?
