A miller tells a king that his daughter is capable of spinning straw into gold. The king locks the girl in a tower and demands that she do so by morning, but just as she's given up all hope, an imp-like creature arrives to spin the straw into gold in exchange for jewelry, but as the king's demands grow, so do the imp's. Eventually, the girl promises the imp her first-born son if he agrees to spin an entire room of straw into gold. When the imp returns years later to claim the boy, the now-queen begs him for another trade. The imp agrees, saying that if she can guess his name in three days, he'll let her keep her child.
