The Storyteller recounts a time in his life when he came upon a castle as a beggar and talked himself into a commission to tell the King a story each night for a year. On the last very day he couldn't come up with a story, and would have been boiled alive in oil for breaking the deal, if it weren't for the timely arrival of a mysterious beggar.—The TV Archaeologist
The storyteller is hired by a king to tell him a new story each day for a year. The storyteller agrees, however, on the last day, he finds out that his mind is empty and he has no new story to tell.
