    Author’s recommendation

    A treasure is buried at Heidburg. Once, a mysterious knight led a peasant woman into the vault and opened for her three chests filled with gold, silver, and money. The peasant woman thought of the food on the stove and took only as much as she could carry. When she later wanted to fetch gold, silver, and money again, she could no longer find the way.
