Wie gemein – Ellis ältere Schwester darf Reitunterricht nehmen und sie nicht! Zum Glück weiß Oma ihre Enkelin zu trösten: Sie vertraut ihr die geheimnisvolle Muschelfarbe an, mit der Elli ein wunderschönes Pferd malt.

Der hat schlechte Neuigkeiten für Elli: Die Magie des Tals schwindet! Um sie wieder ins Gleichgewicht zu bringen, muss Liron schleunigst sein Seelenpferd finden.
