Well, yes and no. She is rumored to be the daughter of Lilith, Adam's first, rebellious wife. The other part is fallen angel. So like in Nimrod, she is half demon and humaniod. She is a giant. A fact the movie fails to depict, but she is beautiful beyond belief. However, she is pure evil. The reason she knows about the children of Adam and Eve is because of her evil mother and biological demon, fallen angel father's vow to destroy mankind. Jadia, the white witch, gets her warrior side from her father, but her race is cursed and awaken by the ignorance of a human child.
If you read The sorcerer's nephew (the book in the chronicles of Narnia before The lion, the witch, and the wardrobe), You will find out she is actually a queen from a different dimension who was taken to Narnia before it was created by Aslan's song.
The witch was taken to Narnia by the two protagonists of the story. Ironically, she is the reason the pole Lucy found came to excist.
Narnia, as written in C.S. Lewis's novel "The Lion, The Witch, and The Wardrobe." In this magical land, it was always winter but never Christmas until Aslan's arrival brought an end to the White Witch's reign, bringing back warmth and joy to Narnia.
In "The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe," the Pevensie siblings discover the magical world of Narnia through a wardrobe in a professor's house during World War II. They enter Narnia together and become key figures in its eventual liberation from the White Witch's tyranny.
In the beginning of The Chronicles of Narnia, the land of Narnia is under the rule of the White Witch, who has plunged the land into a perpetual winter. The animals and creatures of Narnia are living in fear and longing for the return of the true king, Aslan, to restore peace and end the oppressive rule of the witch.
The White Witch brings eternal winter to Narnia with her spell, causing the land to be frozen and lifeless. This plunges Narnia into a state of despair and suffering until Aslan arrives to bring an end to her tyranny and restore balance to the land.
Mr. Tumnus got turned into stone by the White Witch, but Aslan came back and brought him back at the end of the movie, so no, he didn't die. Mr. Tumnus is dead by the time the children come back to Narnia in the second film because hundreds of years have pasted and he probably died in war but that was not in Narnia 1
The witch's house, also known as the White Witch's castle, is where she holds Edmund captive and attempts to trick him into joining forces with her. She is ultimately defeated by Aslan and her evil reign comes to an end.
Edmund's statement that the frost was over signifies the end of the White Witch's grip on Narnia, symbolizing the return of freedom and warmth. The thaw brought by the end of the frost made it difficult for the White Witch as her power was tied to the perpetual winter, weakening her control over Narnia's inhabitants. The thaw also signified a shift in power dynamics, allowing Aslan and his forces to gain strength and challenge the White Witch's rule. It brought about hope and renewal to Narnia, showing that oppressive regimes cannot last forever in the face of resistance and unity.
The White Witch ran away in Narnia because she was defeated by Aslan and his forces in the battle and was ultimately killed by Edmund. Her reign of tyranny and evil was brought to an end, and she knew she could not continue to rule Narnia.
There is a prophecy in Narnia that when 4 humans fill the 4 thrones at Cair Paravel that will be the end of the witch's reign and her life. That's why it is important that the children are human - of the race of Adam and Eve, as it is represented in The Liopn, the Witch and the Wardrobe
The witch's evil spell was that it was "always winter, but never Christmas". The appearance of Father Christmas was evidence of the first "crack" in the spell's strength. Father Christmas even mentions that he had been trying to get into Narnia for a long while.
Well, it's rather difficult to try and point out one major problem in the entire series unless you go book by book beginning with the evil Uncle Andrew and the Witch in "The Magician's Nephew" and finishing with the evil Calormenes in "The Final Battle." I suppose though, that the main problem, if I was to pick out just one, would be trying to reset the balance of good in Narnia and making it as it was meant to be in the beginning (see The Magician's Nephew for details)
The prophesy Mr. Beaver quoted was, "There is a prophecy that two sons of Adam and daughters of Eve will appear and defeat the white witch and put an end to this 100 year winter." The children were seen as the sons and daughters of the prophecy. The witch of course did not want her rule to be ended, and set out to destroy the children. They are eventually crowned kings and queens of Narnia.
