Chapter 1: Seven Ravens
Once upon a time, there was a family with eight children. Seven of these children were boys, and the youngest was a girl. Despite being born beautiful, she was so fragile that the family thought she would die before she was baptized. Everything had to be done quick or else she might die before they did those things. The boys were all eager to help, all racing to get water from the well. Unfortunately, they got too carried away and dropped the bucket into the well. Their father waited and waited, but the boys never came. Angered, the father cursed his sons - they were probably out playing in the field again. They might as well be ravens circling the fields.
Seven ravens circled their father's house, crying out for help...
Chapter 2: Wandering Raven.
The ravens cried out to their father, begging for help. However, their father didn't understand their frenzied squawks and shooed them away. Starving, they headed to the city in order to look for food.
There, people chased the ravens away with stones and broomsticks. No one there liked ravens and no one spared food for them to eat. Then, they went to the woods. They were turned away there too - the animals chased the ravens out of the forest, refusing to share food with the ravens.
Finally, the ravens came across a cornfield. The ravens were happy - they had food to eat, even if it was just for a while. But all of a sudden, a large shadow loomed over the ravens gorging themselves on the corn. The ravens fled, but the youngest of the seven was caught - Maal, the smallest raven. As his older brothers flew away, Maal begged the monster for mercy.
The monster turned out to be an animated scarecrow. It didn't plan on doing anything bad to Maal - it just wanted a friend to talk to and it'd be willing to pay Maal with corn. Staying with it, Maal found the scarecrow to be kind and brainless - quite literally. Tricking the scarecrow became a fun pastime for Maal...
Chapter 3: Ice and Glass
Maal's brothers came back, unable to stay away for fear of starving. Seeing that Maal was alive and not starving, they went after the corn Maal had gotten from the scarecrow. Maal handed his brothers an equal share and reminded them that they shouldn't act like ravens when they were humans. In fact, they should be looking for a way to break the curse.
After debating ways to break the curse, Maal and his brothers eventually decided on finding an expert in magic. Leaving the field, the ravens flew over forests and seas until they reached what seemed to be a glass mountain, on top of which rested a glass castle. Tired from their flight, the feast that they saw within the castle drew their attention. Circling the castle, the ravens looked for a way in.
They eventually found an open door. Before the ravens went in, Maal warned his brothers about the potential dangers, but no one cared about that. They were too hungry. Nearing the table, they were too distracted by the feast to notice the menace lurking nearby...
Chapter 4: Locked Room
The door slammed shut as soon as all the ravens entered. A giant beast snarled behind them, its large fangs glistening as it glared at them. The queen of the castle had left it there to guard the castle. It waited at the castle patiently, waiting for its master to return. The feast was for no one but the Ice Queen, and the beast would remake the feast daily.
The beast tried to catch the ravens, but it always failed - the ravens were too fast for the golem. In the end, the golem had to lock the ravens in the castle. All of the rooms were bare, aside from a single locked room. The ravens were bored to death...
Chapter 5: Raven's Redemption
One day, the Ice Queen returned with a sluggish boy. The beast turned back into an obedient pet. Maal, sensing the queen's presence, led his brothers into an empty room where they hid. Opening the locked room, the queen revealed a puzzle to the boy. She decided to make the boy make the word Eternity with the puzzle and then left. Seven days later, the ravens' sister arrived with a girl named Gerde. The two defeated the beast and set the ravens free. Their sister tried to lift the curse on her brothers, but it only worked on Maal because the others didn't want to repent for their wrongdoings. To return Gerde's favor, Maal decided to help Gerde free the boy. This would help them relieve themselves of the curse.
