Description
Seven of the 13 fairy tales feature some combination of troll(s), king on farm, and Askelad (lad of the ashes). These motifs appear to form the fabric of Norwegian fairy tales.
The trolls are typically viewed as stupid guardians of gold and silver. Askelad is the brother of two brothers who try to outsmart him.
The fairy tales were gathered and written down in the mid-19th century.
