Le lieu

The Great Desert stretches north of Tashbaan to the mountains of Archenland. For an army, it is difficult to cross, and that is what protects Archenland and Narnia. Rabadash plans to cross it by surprise.

Ce qui s’y passe (révèle l’intrigue)

Shasta, Aravis, Bree, and Hwin cross it in one night and day, following the directions of an old Narnian crow. They find the oasis and the river that mark the entrance to Archenland, exhausted, just before Rabadash’s army.

A desert of sand separates Calormen from Archenland. It is crossed from one oasis to another, following landmarks such as Mount Pire. The Calormenes believe it is impassable for an army, which protects the North.

Le Cheval et son écuyer — Shasta, Aravis, Bree et Hwin le traversent de nuit, sans eau, en une marche épuisante. Rabadash et ses deux cents cavaliers le traversent juste derrière eux.
