This thesis is a translation of the book SPELLhorn by Berlie Doherty.
Laura, a blind girl, can sense another world hidden from other people. One day, she feels strange hoof prints in her garden and gets taken away into another land 'Wilderness' by a unicorn, 'Spellhorn', and Wild Ones, who set a fire to human' houses to find him. Spellhorn as a guide of Wild Ones, comes out of their land to find a new Mighty High. He finds Laura and is gentled by her. Wilderness is 'the time-began thing', the young world and the place giving peace of heart. On her way to Wilderness, full of dangers are waiting for Laura and Wild Ones. They must cross BadWood where the unicorn fights Moonbats and Hornless unicorns and a Sea of Snakes where hissing snakes spit poison into the sea. Laura has to make a lot of decisions to get to Wilderness. In the Wild Ones' land, Laura can see 'all time began' colors there, feels heartglad but faces an inner enemy, 'Flight', who wants to be Mighty High as an oldest girl of Wild Ones. However, Fight lost her mysterious power which she uses badly. Old Woman leading Wild Ones as Mighty High, chooses Laura as 'Girlchild' with 'mind's eye', who becomes Might High. Laura feels perfect happiness in Wilderness since she climbs Spellhorn, which makes her regain her sight. Still, as the new Mighty High she is faced with tough decisions at every turn while struggling with her feelings of going back home.
