A penniless but kind-hearted traveler gives his last coins to ensure a total stranger receives a proper burial. Shortly after, a mysterious and silent companion appears to join him on his journey. This stranger guides the traveler, saves him from hidden dangers, and eventually helps him break a terrible curse plaguing a kingdom’s princess. When the traveler finally asks who his loyal friend is, he learns a profound lesson about the enduring power of compassion and the way a good deed can transcend even death itself.
