Folk tales

The pupose of these tales is to teach lessons. They are designed to convince common people of their position. So children must stay on the path in the woods and work hard.
Some stories are of more entertainment value. Hans in Luck allows the audience to laugh at a man who makes bad trades consistently, while the Six Soldiers of fortune do impossible things and triumph over those richer and crueler than they. It's a way to feel hopeful for th future.
