King Jaroslav and Queen Anna rule over the kingdom of humans. At first glance, it is clear that they do not elevate themselves above others; their children play normally with others, and the royal couple has a good relationship with the family of the stable boy Petr. The neighboring Forest Land is a place where laws that should not be broken reign supreme. Its ruler remains mysteriously in the background, and people can only meet the land's administrator, Pavučinec. King Jaroslav is punished for breaking a long-standing ban and must balance his freedom with a gift for Pavučinec. When he finds out that he would have to give up his son, he tries to save him. But something for something—will Pavučinec choose his sacrifice after all?
