The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe chapter 11

Edmund is not particularly happy at the home of the White Witch. He is hungry, but she gives him none of the promised Turkish Delight, feeding him nothing but water and old, dry bread that do little more than prevent him from fainting dead away. The Witch sends several of her swiftest wolves and Fenris Ulf, the Chief of her Secret Police, to the Beavers' house with instructions to kill the group. If they have already left, the wolves are to proceed to the Stone Table. She herself will have to go many miles west to find a place where she can cross the river on her sledge.
