The last few ds before the rain of stars had quite ended were very exg.Stars began falling all round them.But stars in that world are not the great flaming globes they are in ours.They are people（Edmund and Lucy had o one）.So now they found showers of glittering people, all with long hair like burning silver and spears like white-hot metal, rushing down to them out of the black air, swifter than falling stohey made a hissing noi as they landed and burnt the grass.And all the stars glided past them and stood somewhere behind, a little to the right.
This was a great advantage, becau otherwi, now that there were no stars in the sky, everything would have been pletely dark and you could have en nothing.As it was, the crowd of stars behind them cast a fierce, white light over their shoulders.They could e mile upon mile of Narnian woods spread out before them, looking as if they were floodlit.Every bush and almost every blade of grass had its black shadow behind it.The edge of every leaf stood out so sharp that you’d think you could cut your finger on it.
On the grass before them lay their own shadows.But the great thing was Aslan’s shadow.It streamed away to their left, enormous aerrible.And all this was under a sky that would now be starless forever.
The light from behind them（and a little to their right）was s that it lit up even the slopes of the Northern Moors.Something was moving there.Enormous animals were crawling and sliding down into Narnia：great dragons and giant lizards aherless birds with wings like bats’wings.They disappeared into the woods and for a few mihere was silehen there came—at first from very far off—sounds of wailing and then, from every dire, a rustling and a pattering and a sound of wings.It came nearer and nearer.Soon one could distinguish the scamper of little feet from the padding of big paws, and the clack-clack of light little hoofs from the thunder of great ones.And then one could e thousands of pairs of eyes gleaming.And at last, out of the shadow of the trees, rag up the hill for dear life, by thousands and by millions, came all kinds of creatures—Talkis, Dwarfs, Satyrs, Fauns, Giants, enes, men from Arland, Monopods, and strange uhly things from the remote islands of the unknowern lands.And all the ran up to the doorway where Aslan stood.
