…on a night of rain Frodo smelled a sweet fragrance on the air and heard the sound of singing that came over the water. And then it seemed to him that as in his dream in the house of Bombadil, the grey rain-curtain turned all to silver glass and was rolled back, and he beheld white shores and beyond them a fair green country under a swift sunrise.

I get the idea, though, that Aslan's creative act in Narnia is inviolable. This is illustrated when Jadis throws the lamp-post at him. As in Christian theology, the idea that God did not create out of complusion or necessity and had no compelling influences upon whatsoever when he created, so it is with Aslan.

Augustine taught that evil has no nature in itself but is simply the perversion of good--a thing Lewis believed as well. Whatever damnage the White Witch did in Narnia, it would have happened after creation.
