Synopsis

Five tales: A young woman with the power to heal, but no power of speech, meets a mage who has lost—or renounced—his powers; a princess who is chained inside a cave as a sacrifice to a monster finds he is no monster; a troll bargains for a human wife, but will not hold her against her will; an old farmer releases a curse on his own land for love of his beautiful young wife; and a young girl finds a mysterious box in the attic of her family's new house.
