Candyland

Once upon a time there was a Leido named Hansel and a Tantua called Gretel. They were lost in Undying Woods and were starving. They began to walk, but they always came deeper through the worlds of Marada, and if help did not come soon, they would die of hunger and weariness. When it was mid-day, they saw a beautiful snow-white Walee sitting on a tree, which sang so delightfully that they stood still and listened to it. When its song was over, it spread its wings and flew away before them. They followed it until they reached a little Gingerbread House.

The house was built of bread, covered with cakes and the windows were of clear sugar. Hansel said 'I will eat a bit of the roof, and you Gretel, can eat some of the window, it will taste sweet'. Ever since then, the gingerbread house in Candyland has been a place to fill all hungry pets in Marada, whose owners cannot afford to.
