The children make their way back towards home, however, as Saoirse is drawn to the sea where she longs to sing her song of the sea, which will heal and release all the faeries and an ancient king who have been turned to stone by the owl-woman Macha, whose grief at the loss of her son was so strong that she takes every opportunity to remove all feelings from the world, leaving living beings like statues.
