As if her crimes against Rilian were not enough, what she does to the gnomes is even more awful. She gave them a history and imbued them with knowledge of their lot, to be excruciatingly aware of their slavery, to desire freedom yet devoid of any will to seek it. This is a chilling version of Rilian who never escapes her, and it cannot be a happy ending for him, or a peaceful time for Narnia. A very chilling and grim story.
