In March 1942, Jan, one of the youngsters of the village, warned the Church Keeper that a group of German soldiers led by Johann Schmidt had arrived looking for the Tesseract, an artifact from the Norse legends he believed to be real. The Church Keeper refused to tell Schmidt the location of the object, but Schmidt managed to locate it hidden inside a wall without his help. The Church Keeper tried to warn Schmidt that no one can touch the Tesseract, as it would burn them alive, although Schmidt ignored this, killing the Church Keeper with his gun.[1]
