As he grows, he proves to be quite a mischief maker and one day determines that he will go to Madrid to meet the king. Despite his family’s protests he leaves, hoppity kicking his way to Madrid.
Along the way he encounters several elements (water, fire, wind) that each ask for his help, which he refuses to give.
