"Kristoff stop, please! I hear the voice!" Elsa says suddenly. Kristoff pulls on the reigns and Sven comes to a stop. We all jump out of the wagon and he lets Sven loose so he can come with. We follow Elsa as she walks in the direction where she heard the voice.
"Wow..." I gasp as we turn the corner of the mountain. It's the forest; or rather, the mist that is covering the forest.
"It's beautiful..." Elsa says. She reaches out and puts her hand to the mist, and suddenly, it separates, opening up a path. It also reveals the four stones of the elements.
"Air...fire...water...earth," Elsa says, looking between the stones.
"This is it...I'll be right by your side," I say and squeeze Elsa's hand. She squeezes back and we all walk into the mist. The barrier closes again behind us. I feel a bit of fear creeping in. The mist is all around us and I feel trapped. We must be walking through the barrier itself. I reach over and take Kristoff's hand as well, beginning to shake ever so slightly. Suddenly a force from behind begins to push us, making us practically run until we emerge into the forest. Elsa looses her footing and trips and I help her back to her feet. She tries to shoot her magic through the barrier again and it comes back at full force, almost decapitating her.
"Are you okay?" I ask.
"Yea, I'm okay. This forest is beautiful," she says as she turns around. The forest is clearly into its autumn stages. The leaves are all shades of red, orange, and yellow. I gasp again in awe as I see all of the beautiful colors. I walk over to a tree and run my fingers over the bark. Sven runs over and scratches his back on a tree like a bear. Olaf just keeps running into the barrier so he can get bounced back and run into it again. I shake my head and keep walking down a path. I almost don't notice the drop off into the ravine.
"Woah there," Kristoff says, pulling me back.
"Thank you," I say and laugh a little bit.
"Where did that dam come from?" Kristoff asks. I turn and look at the dam.
"I don't know..." I say. I study it for a while, my eyes flicking back and forth. Something deep inside me tells me I know what this is.
"We should get back to Elsa and Olaf," Kristoff says.
"I know where I've heard of this dam. It's real...the dam my grandfather built for the Northuldra people...it was a gift of peace. That's where the dam is from!" I say and grab Kristoff's shirt.
"The Northuldra?" Kristoff asks.
"The indigenous people who live in the forest...maybe they know a legend, something that will help Elsa find this voice! We have to find them!" I say.
"Turn to face us. Don't make any sudden moves," a voice says from behind Kristoff. I look over his shoulder and see several people, holding spears made from wood. Kristoff and I turn slowly and face the people.
"What are you doing here?" The girl in front asks. She has long, dark brown hair, styled in a braid, kind of like Elsa's, only she has hers down her back.
"We need answers...please," I say.
"Come with us," an older lady with grayish-white hair says. A couple people step forward and grab our arms and the rest surround us, walking us back to a camp.
"My sister...I need to go find my sister," I say.
"You'll stay here," the girl with brown hair says.
"Anna?" Elsa says. I turn my head and she's being lead in by some other people.
"Who are you people?" I ask as they sit Elsa down next to me. Where are Olaf and Sven?
