[[File:3773.jpg|left]]During the Golden Age of Narnia when the four Pevensies are reigning in Cair Paravel, the baby Prince Cor (Shasta) of Archenland is kidnapped by a former advisor of his father, King Lune. When King Lune's ships catch up to them, Shasta is set in a boat with a knight to escape, and Aslan Himself pushes the boat so that it comes to the country of Calormen where a fisherman sits to receive it. This simple act sets in motion events that will eventually save Archenland. As Shasta and the Talking Horse Bree make their escape from Calormen to Narnia, they encounter what they believe to be multiple lions (but which are actually just one). In this way Aslan causes them to meet Aravis, a Calormene princess, and her companion, the Talking Horse Hwin. After Shasta gets through the city of Tashbaan and has to spend the night at the Tombs of the Ancient Kings, the Lion roars to keep the jackals away. He also takes the form of a cat and comforts Shasta that night. Later in the journey, as the company struggles to reach Anvard to warn them of Rabadash's attack, Aslan chases them once again and gives the horses the new strength of fear so that Shasta can reach King Lune in time. Shasta feels that he is the most unfortunate person in the entire world, but the Lion appears to him and explains the purposes behind the events in his life. Aslan also appears to Bree, Aravis, and Hwin who are staying with the Hermit. Aslan tells Hwin that great joy would be hers since she came willingly to Him. He corrects Bree's belief that He is not a real Lion, and explains to Aravis why He gave her the scars on her back. Aslan appears at Prince Rabadash's trial and, after giving him many chances to repent, changes him into a donkey.
