But when grown up and their heads began to be filled with notions about the young giants, who paid visits to them, then the family troubles began. There was one young giant fairy named Vuur, who came often to see all six of Uller's daughters, from the youngest to the oldest.
There they could hunt and roam on their snow-shoes. To these cold places, which the whole family enjoyed, their daughters went also and all were very happy so far above the earth. Things went on pleasantly in Uller's family so long as his daughters were young, for then the girls found enough to delight in at their daily play.

He would not bestow many blessings upon mankind; yet thousands of people used to come to Ulrum every year to invoke his aid and ask him to send a heavy fall of snow to cover the ground. That meant good crops of food for the next year.
