Mr. and Mrs. Anders
Shines father is only mentioned in the book. He passed away in a logging accident. Shine mentions that he loved the old legends of North of North and often shared them with her and her mother. Mrs. Anders leaves Shine and her Grandmother to try and find the legendary Rolaandotter vault, which her ancestors used to own.

Shine Anders
Shine is a young girl who, after her family's financial difficulties and her father's death, moves in with the Marshalls to be their live-in servant. She is often harassed by the young Marshall children, and after one of them threatens to steal her doll Gertrude, and her doll goes missing, Shine runs to Teardrop Lake. There, she cries into the water, when suddenly the legendary horse Jewel appears coming out of the water. Jewel reveals in a vision that the Rolandotter vault has been hidden and sealed with spells for protection from looters and that Gertrude is the key to the vault. Shine and Jewel then rescue Gertrude and go on an adventure to find the vault and Shine's mother. Throughout the journey, Shine struggles with selfishness, but overcomes this with Jewel's help. Along the way, they encounter rock creatures, traps, puzzles, and many other strange things. They find a set of jewelers tools and a jeweler's manual that belonged to Shine's family. Eventually, they discover a room full of sleeping dolls that were under a spell. Jewel dances and brings them back to life, finding her mother in the process. They also bring Gertrude back to life and enter the Rolandotter vault. They chose to only take home their family's tools, and leave the treasure, leading to them being blessed by Sigga.
