This story is an old Germanic folk tale that can be traced back beyond the early 1700's.
Two weary travellers stumble over a beautiful town in the mountains. They knock on a door sure they will be greeted well and offered food. However, when they begin to meet the locals it becomes clear that this village is missing a very important ingredient.
The traveler's help them rediscover this important ingredient with the help of a little 'magic'
