## Tales of Bremen

**The Dark Times**

Bremen was a prosperous town ... until the fog came. With it came the Dark Times. Trapped in the fog, the townspeople lost their minds. They heard the voice of the Mistress of Fog ... and they obeyed it. The fog spread through the town until it reached the square, where some street musicians were playing. Suddenly, somehow, the fog stopped.

**The four musicians**

It was the street musicians' melody that stopped the fog from spreading. The louder they played, the faster the fog retreated. The townspeople saw this and begged the musicians to save Bremen by banishing the mysterious fog. They played the melody and drove the fog beyond the town walls. They continued chasing it until they reached the swamps.

**A tragic sacrifice**

At the swamps, the musicians found a high tower with no entrance, where the Mistress of the Fog lived. Their melody weakened her magic and destroyed the fog. But as they played, the bog began to swallow them. The brave quartet kept playing until their last breath, and the Mistress was sealed inside the tower. All that remained of the musicians were four masks and the sheet music with the magical tune. To honor their sacrifice, the Brotherhood of Musicians was founded to keep the secret of the melody. Since then, once a year, a festival is held to honor the fallen saviors. The best musicians in Europe are chosen to play that ancient melody and keep the fog from returning.

**Bremen's dark secret**

You think you know about Bremen ... But there was a time when its citizens were no better than beasts. Many years ago, they banished a young girl from the city simply for being different. She was taken from her loving family and placed in a lonely tower. Its location was kept a secret.

**The girl in the tower**

Imprisoned in the tower, the girl waited and waited for her parents to save her. But they never came. Not in a day, not in a year, not ever after. The girl's hair continued to grow, and with it grew an all-consuming hatred of Bremen and its citizens. She died alone. But her magic and her hatred remained. This power eventually reached the town of Bremen, heralding the Dark Times.

**The broken family**

Rapunzel grew up in a family of musicians. She was beloved by her family and her magical abilities didn't scare them. But to make their living, the family often had to leave her at home alone. One day, the family returned home to find Rapunzel missing. They searched and searched, but it was as if she had simply vanished. The townspeople were too afraid to tell them they had banished Rapunzel because of her magic. The grieving family packed up their instruments and left Bremen. They searched for her everywhere, all the while playing the same melody - Rapunzel's favorite lullaby - in the hopes that she would hear it and find them. That is how they became traveling musicians. But in all their searching for the poor lost Rapunzel, they never realized how close to Bremen she had been all along, sealed in her lonely tower.

**A brother's vow**

For years we searched for Rapunzel with no success, until our journey brought us back to Bremen. A mystical fog was taking over the city. For some reason, it reacted to our melody. But by saving Bremen, we doomed ourselves. The bog took us all, except for me - my contrabass saved me from drowning. When I ascended the tower to find out what horrible evil we had given our lives to defeat - I found only a dead body. I realized that the soul spreading the fog was asleep, not destroyed. Our melody calmed it. Then I found the dolls ... The dolls I had made for my sister Rapunzel. And I knew ... She had been here all along. And the rest of our family had died trying to stop her. I made a vow to help my sister's soul, no matter the cost. The magic abilities that had once doomed her would save us all. The town of Bremen will pay!
