Plot summary
Kai and Gerda are national heroes, known for defeating the Snow Queen, and after years of wandering they go to visit the troll Orm. Gerda has not given up her dream of finding the parents the North Wind once took from her. With the pirate Alfida she and Kai journey to the land of the trolls, where Orm introduces them to Rollan, a Spaniard who studies urban legends. When Gerda tells how she accidentally defeated the Snow Queen, Kai is distressed, because the two had agreed never to reveal that story, and he quarrels and sails away with Alfida. Rollan then recounts a real legend: the Wishing Stone, an artifact in the forbidden caves under Lake Gao that fulfills any desire. Gerda goes in search of it.
