The dwarves of Swabedo

THE STORY BEGINS IN GERMANY …
Once upon a time there was a little village, called Swabedo, where were living some very happy dwarves. Their favorite thing was to offer slush toys to each other, saying “I like you!” Every time they met, they were changing slush toys between them. Their life was full of love and happiness.
In the same time, away from the village, in a dark and cold cavern, a big and green elf was living. He didn’t like to live alone and he would have liked to stay with the dwarves, but he had nothing to offer to them, so he decided that the exchange of the slush toys was a stupid thing to do. One day, he met a dwarf, but instead of talking to him, the elf ran in his cavern.
One evening, the green elf met a friendly dwarf. He gave the elf a toy, saying: ”Take this toy, it is for you!” But the elf didn’t want it and, looking in the dwarf’s bag, answered: “Stop offering these toys! If you keep doing it, you will remain without them in your bag!” The dwarf has never thought about it, because when he offered, he received one in return, so it cannot be over …. But the doubt began … what is the elf was right? The elf knew exactly what he did and he stayed in front of the cave and waited to see how the dwarves began to doubt their habit of bringing happiness …
The dwarves stopped offering the toys and, in time, they became ill. The elf was very happy about his lie and wanted the dwarves to feel like he did. He wanted to show them that this was real life. But things went further and the dwarves even died of sadness and illness. The elf felt guilty, he only wanted to show the dwarves the real life.
So, he decided to do something to make things right for them ….
