action

Theo is heir to the throne and, at the age of 16, is still much too small. His father, King Dietrich, is stubborn and stubborn and does not allow himself to be inspired by the clever spirit of his son. He is convinced that a decent king is characterized by physical strength, and so Theo has to endure a training torture. The fact that King Dietrich disregards the sufferings of his people is of little interest to him. Since he banished the dwarves from his country, no more bushes or trees have grown in the country. During an excursion into the mountains, another test on Theo, he falls down into a ravine. There Theo is rescued by the dwarf king, King Laurin, who takes him to his garden in the furrows of the mountains. As a thank you, he should also do his rescuer a favor and collect all the snails in the garden of the dwarf king. After initial skepticism, the fateful encounter between Theo and King Laurin soon developed into an unusual friendship. And Theo has to learn what it means to evade the constraints of the environment.
