When they asked him where he had been he said he had come in at the door along with all the other creatures but he had.well， to tell the truth， he had been keeping out of their way as much as he could； and out of Aslan‘s way. For the sight of the real Lion had made him so ashamed of all that nonsense about dressing up in a lion.skin that he did not know how to look anyone in the face. But when he saw that all his friends were going away Westward， and after he had had a mouthful of grass （“And I’ve never tasted such good grass in my life，” said Puzzle）， he plucked up his courage and followed. “But what I‘ll do if I really have to meet Aslan， I’m sure I don‘t know，” he added.
“You’ll find it will be all right when you really do，” said Queen Lucy.
Then they went forward together， always Westward， forhat seemed to be the direction Aslan had meant when he ried out， “Further up and futher in.” Many other creatures ere slowly moving the same way， but that grassy country as very wide and there was no crowding.
