Once lived a family of nine, a mother, a father, and their seven sons. The eighth child was on the way. The seven brothers got a little sister. She was however so sick that the family decided to baptize her privately. The father sent his seven boys to get water but it took so much time that he got angry. So angry that he cursed his own children into becoming ravens. Years later their poor lonely sister found out about her brothers’ fate. And she headed out searching for them. Will she succeed? Will she break the enchantment? Find out in "The Seven Ravens".
