	Oberon - LoveToKnow 1911
		The fairy element in the romance provided Shakespeare with the fairy scenes of the Midsummer Night's Dream, and Wieland with the subject of his epic Oberon (1780).
		With Oberon in the character of guardian of the treasure should be compared Andvari, the dwarf of Scandinavian legend, who, in the shape of a pike, was seized by Loki and made to give up his treasure and the magic ring by which he could create more gold.
		This ring, the Andvaranautr, with the curse of Andvari upon it, caused the misfortunes of the Volsungs and the Burgundian Nibelungs, and is known in German romance as the Ring of the Nibelungen.

		If Oberon is the director of the action, Puck is his chief actor, and one who doesn't mind taking a bit of creative license.
