Where is it?" I asked, willing him to tell me.He laughed suddenly, and I could hear the full-throated, grating sound of the white bear's laughter in it."East of the sun and west of the moon," he said.

She would search for him. In the land that lay east of the sun and west of the moon. But there was no way there.
