Ollie's grandmother tells how Dzo, giant orchard-elephants, once gave out glowing pods so species could change shape and understand each other. A Treewolf stole a pod, became the Firewolf, killed Dzo, started a forest fire, and a rockslide made a dam that flooded the valley.
Theme. Origin stories with fire and killing set a darker rule than the cute Pookoo faces. Kids may wait for that wolf the whole film.
What to say. You might say: 'This is the old story of why the animals stopped mixing. If the fire wolf is a lot, we skip to Ollie as a kid.'
