![]() With his eye restored and no more bells, Trundle breaks out of the cave, rallies the other Trolls, and attacks Trolberg. The orb Hilda just returned to him was his missing eye. She informs Hilda that those bells were put there by the trolls to keep Trundle a prisoner, because he is the dreaded Mountain King. All seems well, until Baba’s mom notices the bells are gone. Now that Hilda and Baba are both back with their true mothers, the spell is lifted and they become their old selves again. ![]() Ahlberg considers Baba’s mom a threat and tries to shoot her, but is stopped and disarmed by Johanna. With her mom, Baba and Tontu, Hilda brings the orb to Trundle’s cave, where both Baba’s mom and Ahlberg await them. She is saved when the troll accidentally steps on Johanna's car, loses his balance, and falls into a ravine. When the troll turns his attention on Johanna next, Hilda attacks the Troll. Ahlberg tries to stop the troll, but his torch is too weak to harm the giant creature and he is easily defeated. Outside, she is spotted by her mom, Baba and Ahlberg. She panics and flees the cave with the orb, chased by the troll. When the vision ends, Hilda leaves the ruins, but is seen by a massive, bearded troll. When the trolls attack her, a giant creature resembling her mom bursts out of the ground and destroys the entire city. When Hilda touches the orb, it shows her a vision in which she ends up in a strange-looking city inhabited by tiny trolls. Meanwhile, Trundle sends Hilda on another assignment to bring him a big, red orb, hidden in the ruins of the castle among the treasure of the Mountain King. She uses pillows (which she steals from a Troll's treasure collection) to silence the bells, and can thus safely remove them.Īfter her narrow escape from the Trolls, Johanna sees no other option than to ask Ahlberg for help. Seeing no other way out, Hilda decides to help Trundle. But she still longs for her home and convinces Baba’s mom that using the Changeling Spell was wrong and that she should undo the spell put on Hilda. For a moment, it seems Hilda actually begins to appreciate her new life, since being a Troll gives her abilities above those of a human and she is free to roam the wilderness again. Baba’s mom shows Hilda more about Troll society, including the ruins of the castle of the Mountain King a giant troll that once tried to rally all trolls into attacking the city, but was defeated. Hilda takes some time to think about the offer. He now wants Hilda to remove the bells that are keeping him trapped in the cave. That same night, Hilda returns to Trundle and brings him the first thing he requested Troll-mead to restore his strength. When night falls they see Baba’s mom and try to talk to her, but are forced to flee when other trolls attack them. The following day, Johanna and Baba resume their search for Hilda. In the mountains, Baba’s mom tells Hilda that the trolls stay close to Trolberg, since it used to be their home before the humans came. Johanna realizes Hilda is in danger if the Safety Patrol decides to engage the Trolls in a fight. That night, in Trolberg, ranger Ahlberg presents the Safety Patrol’s latest weapon for hunting trolls. He also assures her that Baba’s mom means no harm, since she considers Hilda her daughter now. He tells Hilda that there is a way she can become human again, which he will show her if she helps him. Inside she finds a gigantic troll with no eyes, who calls himself Trundle. Baba’s mom comes for her, but Hilda manages to elude her, and in doing so finds a huge cave with dozens of bells hanging from the ceiling of the entrance. When the sun sets she awakens, and since she’s a troll now the ringing of the bell hurts her. He tells Johanna that there are more trolls than ever in the area, and insists she goes back to Trolberg. They search all day till it’s almost sunset, when they are found by Erik Ahlberg, the leader of the Safety Patrol. Johanna, Baba and Tontu thus set out for the wilderness outside Trolberg to try and find Hilda. When Tontu sees Baba, he concludes they are dealing with a change. In Trolberg, Johanna has great trouble controlling Baba. Hilda however panics and runs out of the cave, but since it’s day the sunlight instantly petrifies her. Baba’s mom explains to Hilda that she wanted a better life for her daughter, and that she thought Hilda would like being a troll more. Picking up where the previous story left of, Hilda is now a troll child living in a cave in the Stone Forest, while Baba is a human child living with Johanna.
