There was a time in the city in a valley, between a river and some mountains where the inhabitants never grew old. The mystery was found inside a castle, located at the top of the highest mountain in the region.
Climbing this castle, after crossing a river by a white bridge of wood and stones, inside of the castle, there was a hermitage with walls of salt, with a monument to the miraculous Virgin.
The tradition says that all those who eat this salt on the day they are 15 years old, will never grow old, and the day they reach 100 years sold, they will go up to the castle and never come back.
That was the pact they signed centuries and centuries ago.

-Poland A long time ago there was a forgotten town called Inowrocław and a wise king lived there. He had his castle and all the people from his kingdom could come and visit him. There was only one way to the castle and it led across the Real Bridge. In front of the castle there was a monument of a God. The statue was made of salt because the castle was located on a salty hill. The king was a good man and did his best for his people but he had one mystery. Every day he went to the monument and he talked to the God because he wanted to create a town with its own tradition but he didnn't know how to do it. One day the God spoke to him and said "Love, friendship and peace are the keys to your happiness." The king listened to the God and some time later he had the greatest kingdom ever.
