Ring of Stones

The Ring of Stones is a circle of large tall menhirs where Merida encounters will o' the wisps and where the final showdown between Elinor and Mor'du takes place.

History
The ring of stones were first seen when Merida rode into the woods on Angus. Angus stopped when he say the stones and accadentaly throw Merida in the middle of the circle much to her anoymint. Merida was astanished by the ring of rocks and then spotted a Will O' the Wisp. She went over to invastigat and then the wisp dissaperd. After that a whole trail of wisps apperd to lead Merida to the Witich's cotage. Merida trys to get Angus to follow with her but Angus was still to fearfull of going into the ring of stones. Evantuly as Merida followed the wisps Angus went around the stones to follow her.

The ring of stones were seen again when Merida rideing on her mother (in bear form) arrive in the stones while running throw the foggey forest to escape Mor'du. Thay manage to just barly avoid crashing into a large Menhir (causing a crack in the stone). While there, Merida explans that if they don't undo the curse soon, she will be a real bear forever. Merida then come to the conclusion that they have to mend the tapastry (wich Merida later cut while arguing with her mother about the arranged marrage) to undo the curse.

Later, Elinor ran into the rings while trying escape Fergus and the four clans (who belived she was a wild bear who killed Elinor). Trying to keep running she is blocked by Fergus's two deerhounds, she then trys to run out another gape in the stones but is blocked by more clans souldurs. The three Lords (MacGuffin, Macintosh and Dingwall), their sons and other members of each clan then corner her aganst a menhir and lasso her with ropes. Then Fergus (beliving that Elinor was killed by the bear) is about to kill the subdued Elinor. Before he can do so, Merida stops him and tells Fergus that the bear is her mom Elinor, leaving Fergus confused while Merida asks her mom if she is okay. Believing his daughter is talking nonsense, Fergus shoves her aside while Lord Macintosh holds her with his spear so Fergus can kill the bear. Merida brakes free and uses his spear to take a sword to knock her father down telling him she would not let him kill his wife. Then Harris, Hubert and Hamish (in their bear forms) try to tackle ther father, but Merida stops them and reveals who they are to their dad, finally convincing him.

Just then, Mor'du appers, and Fergus tells the others to kill it, but the demon bear easily defeats them with his strength. While attacking them, Fergus tries to take the bear on with his bare hands but Mor'du esaly defeats him while attacking Fergus Merida trys to save her father by firing two arrows at Mor'du but they have no affact on him. As Mor'du is about to eat Merida Elinor brakes free of the ropes and defands her daughter from the man eating beast. The more powerful bear Mor'du starts to beat down Elinor while Merida, Fergus, her triplat brothers and the other clans watch in horror. Mor'du then throws Elinor aganst the menhir with the crack in it, giving her an idea. While Mor'du is walking twords Merida Elinor pulls him back from her and let's him charge into the cracked menhir, she then knocks him aganst the large stone to break it further before being knocked back by the demon bear. Mor'du prepares to charge but then the broken menhir falls on the bear killing him. The prince's spirit then appears and thanks them before becoming a wisp and disappearing.

As the sun begins to rise Merida takes the sown up tapestry and throws it over her mother, hoping it will break the spell, but it doesn't, much to Merida's sadness. The others watch on in sorrow and grieve as Merida tearfully hugs and apologizes to her mother for her actions, and says she wants her back. Merida tells her mom she loves her as the sun has fully risen. It is then revealed that Elinor has finally became human again, and she joyfully kisses Merida's face, realizing they have both changed. Fergus then runs to and hugs his wife and gives her a passinate kiss (much to Merida's slight disgust), and then Merida hugs her dad while the lords express their happiness that she is back. However, they soon all realize that Elinor (who is still covered by the tapestry) is naked, and Fergus tells them to avert their eyes. The triplets then run over to hug their parents.
