An overprotective king locks his six daughters in their chambers each night. Despite this, they receive new shoes daily from the village cobbler, and refuse to explain why. The king declares that whoever discovers the reason will win the hand of a daughter of his choosing. No suitor succeeds, until a soldier, equipped with an invisibility‑granting cloak, sets out to uncover the mystery.
