The flock goes into in the sea

to support the storm.

But in the sea they should fight

for not separating...

... with waves of 4,5 meters.

A strong wave separates Seela

of the other ones.

Their mother and their aunt look for it

with desperation...

... but she doesn't appear for any side.

In the earth,

the low temperature at 40oC under zero.

The wind reaches the 130 kms per hour.

The storm leaves its sequels.

The brother bear is weak.

For the first time in their life,

Nanu doesn't see it after her.

Their mother insists him/her that I/you/he/she continues.

He tries to obey...

... but the hunger left it without forces.

Nanu and their mother curl up

with him to share their heat.

But with running of the hours,

he weakens more and more.

And then he/she dies.

Nanu and their mother remain

to their side.

However,

in some moment they should continue.

In the sea, the mom and the aunt

they continue looking for Seela.

Beyond their field of vision...

... she is dying.

Not he/she will be able to resist much more.

Their force goes disappearing...

... together with the hopes of the flock

of finding it.

But their mom and their aunt don't surrender.

They follow a strong current

that it takes them farther than before...

... and they are able this way to find

to who was lost forever.

A small one that knew how to survive...

... awaiting two o'clock mature

that they always arrive to their rescue.

Two springs pass

in the Kingdom of ice...

... and in both, it is heard

a strange music under the ice.

In their second year of life

and already with small eyeteeth,

Seela has begun to pay attention

to those strange sounds.

They are songs of tusk love,

taken place by young males...

... of such a complex structure

that it takes them years to perfect.

Until they deserve to be listened...

... the ladies have better things

that to make with their time.

Nanu has also grown.

He/she is two years old,

but it continues depending on their mother.

However, one morning

their mother stays distant.

The new situation forces its mother...

... to make something before the normal thing.

Nanu goes in its mother's look

something that had never seen.

Just by looking at it, he/she understands

that their life meetings has arrived to its end.

Mother dares she no longer can

to feed both.

In order to survive,

it should move away Nanu of their side.

This separation is the most difficult trance

that Nanu has happened.

But it is also difficult for their mother.

She cannot continue protecting

to their breeding...

... not even to know how he/she goes him/her.

Don't maybe see never it again.

This way, with hardly two years,
