Elsa woke up early the next morning and found the two gifts beside the hay on which she used to lay her head down to sleep.Elsa took those two items and kept in her apron pocket so that Mrs.Wilson did not doubt her.Elsa went to the market to buy eggs and loaves of bread for the family.As she was heading towards a grocery shop,she brushed shoulders with an old,blind lady.Elsa,in a sweet tone,apologized and continued on her way.The blind lady called her back and asked about the bloodstone.Elsa was hesitant to reveal the secret but on further insistence,she told her about the dream.The lady listened to her patiently and gave a broad smile.'We have found the warrior princess'were the words of the blind woman and at that very moment,she disappeared into the thin air.Elsa got frightened out of her wits
