Frodi used the slaves to grind some gold with the magical handmill called Grotti. They had to work around the clock because Frodi was gready. Fenja and Menja sang a long poem while they grinded the gold, but before the poem had come to an end they grinded a navy against Frodi. The navy killed Frodi but the head of the navy took Fenja and Menja, put them on his ship and ordered them to grind salt in the Grotti-handmill. They grinded salt until the ship sank. Fenja and Menja are now at the bottom of the sea, still grinding salt. That's the reason for the salt of the sea.
