Pacho, the bandit of Hybe

My name is Pacho Matrtaj. I come from the mountain village of Hybe. I am neither big or strong, I don't like big words or big deeds, but the arrogance of the local nobility forced me to stand up for my subjects. Armed with a cut tongue, a fair amount of audacity, cunning and a deadly strong brandy Frndžalica, I won the fight for the position of bandit leader. After all, it wasn't that hard to defeat a group of clumsy competitors. Under my leadership, the bandits immediately became famous. The rumors reached as far as Vienna to Maria Theresa herself, who - like Countess Erdödyová - considers the bandits to be very attractive guys. That is why she sent her army to my hiding place in the mountains to bring the robbers to the Viennese court.
