Overview

The fire spirit uses the rainman's sleep to steal his magic rod and his magic water. He dries up all the water and causes great hardship for people and animals. When the fire spirit tampers with the count's well, he is overpowered and imprisoned. For his release, he promises the Count the bottle of magic water. Two children who are looking for water overhear the conversation. They learn that the rainman can only be awakened with the magic rod and the magic water. Andreas uses a trick to get hold of the water. Lies receives the rod in exchange from the vain wife of the fire spirit. The children search for the rainman.

Now the trouble is over, the fire spirit is defeated. It rains again.
