nature_spirit mountain dwarves single tradition · 1
The Fenixmänndel (sg., pl.; Männdel = little man in Silesian German) live near the Fenixmänndelberg (Fenix Men Mountain) in Silesia. They asked a ploughing farmhand to be given a cloak of invisibility (rather a cap, for the German term is Nebelkappe = fog cap) so they might secretly visit a nearby wedding. At another wedding, a woodcutter lost his Nebelkappe due to laughing despite being forbidden to do so.
