What if literary masterpieces were written by different authors,

What if CS Lewis wrote Anne of the Green Gables


 "But what does it all mean?" asked Anne when they were somewhat calmer.

"It means," said Aslan, "that though the Witch knew the Deep Magic, there is a magic deeper still which she did not know. Her knowledge goes back only to the dawn of Time. But if she could have looked a little further back, into the stillness and the darkness before Time dawned, she would have read there a different incantation. She would have known that when a willing victim who had committed no treachery was killed in a traitor's stead, the Table would crack and Death itself would start working backwards."

"What must I do Aslan?" asked Anne. "I cannot believe that Miss Marilla is a witch. She is spare in her degree of kindness but not evil that I can see."

"You must flee young one. You place is not here on this farm of death. Flee while you can. Go into the wardrobe and go to where your true destiny awaits."
