The character of Xeema, loosely inspired by Hans Christian Andersen's Snow Queen, emerges as a mentor to our hero. Portraying reason and wisdom, Xeema's guidance becomes instrumental in Doorah's quest, encouraging Doorah to detach herself from a narrow and self promoting definition of "good" and embrace a broader perspective that encompasses the greater good for all.
