Knights of Sitno

When our father was on the deathbed, as it was used to, he left whole owning to his eldest son. Younger brother did not like it, so he built his own castle on the small Sitno. However, we started to argue about who is the valid lord of Sitno. Everything climaxed during the hunt, when both of us wanted to appropriate caught a deer. We started to fight. A pagan priest tried to reconcile us but to no end, he was not successful. Then, with powerful voice he shouted and cursed us into stones of Sitno. Until today legend is told that we, knights of Sitno, are cursed in these stones. Every seven years stones open and one of us shouts: “Yet?” If nobody answers then we will go back and again sleep for next seven years.
