The Magic Tinderbox

While returning from war a soldier met a witch. She said to him about a cavern chest

which had treasures. It was guarded by a dog. She taught the soldier a spell that can

 control the dog. He found the chest , took whatever he could carry and also the

tinderbox that the witch wanted . He returned to her but instead of giving her

the tinderbox he killed  her. Now he was a rich man. One day while walking in the

night he could not see the road hence he hit the tinderbox on the ground. As soon

he did this immediately the dog game and the dog started to listen to the soldier.

Suddenly one day he discovered the secret of the tinderbox. The soldier asked the

dog if he could see the princess who was held prisoner by her father the king .

The dog had magical powers and the dog flew to the kingdom and brought the

princess along with him. The soldier and the princess fell in love and married .
