One night, Velen wishes upon the Evening Star, hoping to find husbands for his three sisters, and Evening Star delivers her three brothers, Moonbeam, Sunbeam and Wind.

They quarrel, and Velen leaves the castle on a quest to retrieve his sisters, as well as find the object of his affection, Evening Star.

He has to face many dangers on his quest, including being endangered by the evil wizard Cloudbreaker (a personification of storm) who wants to marry Evening Star.

Velen is helped by his brothers in law and defeats Cloudbreaker.

He then returns home with Evening Star and his sisters, accompanied by their husbands.
