Beschreibung in Englisch: Once upon a time, the brave King Leon, with his lovely wife Queen Celia ruled the kingdom of Caceres. And the neighboring soldiers were afraid of him. The townsfolk of Caceres were happy and content, especially when Queen Celia gave birth to Prince Marko, the heir to the king's throne.
Years went by and the prince grew up. And nobody knew that Prince Marko was a true coward. He hates insects. He didn't like to talk about war and leading it. He also makes excuses, so that he will not practice sword-fighting...
The cowardly prince was amazed at his ability to fight and lead an army in battle. They won the war and regained their kingdom. The King and Princess Maria were saved. Prince Marko later went back to the kingdom of Caceres and drove away the Gurkhas. He asked for forgiveness from his parents and his wife.
