Summary

An old king has sons named Speedlover, Forcelover and Honza, but he doesn’t take the last one seriously. Speedlover likes cars, Focelover spends his time in the weight room. The father sent the two older sons to retrieve a hat with a jay’s feather that he'd forgotten as a young prince in an inn. Whoever brings him it will become king.
