Krištof the shepherd boy, the distant descendant of a baby in a crib left on the doorstep of the church after a severe flood caused by Lintver the dragon, lost five sheep in a severe storm during the night.
The shepherd boy sets out on the road and he's asking for help from good people, especially children who see things which adults can no longer see, and also Lintver the Younger, a descendant of the dragon which once ruled in the lake where today the Matkov kot valley is located.
A long time ago, the old Lintver pecked the wall between Klemenča peč and Orlovec ridge, which retained the lake, so that it flew away, whereby a larch with seven tops killed the dragon. The shepherd boy promises a lovely prize to each and everyone who helps him get back the lost sheep to the fold; back to Solčava.
