The Winter Queen of everywhere was a beautiful soul
Although she rules the dead season she is the one that makes all things whole!
She had heard of Polar Bear and his beautiful charge little Mae.
And so while with the forest folk they were busy gathering the Winter Queen came by their way.
At once she recognised the tiny girl and saw through the shape of the bear that did protect her.
She was sister to Little Mae’s Father, she knew the evil magic weaved by a spiteful defector.
At once she stopped to speak first to Polar Bear
Do you remember who you are , where you come from and what your charge was when you were there?

Yes answered Polar Bear I was body guard to my mighty king
He entrusted to my care he daughter Little Mae his most treasured thing.
The dark witch of the East came and threatened my master
She wanted to be his Queen but he did not in any way trust her.
The winter Queen encouraged the bear to tell her more
She said she needed to know everything so he was to tell her what he heard and what he saw.
The witch from the East used every spell she knew
She was determined to be Queen and to get rid of Little Mae too!
