And so, the Prince contacted a witch, who bargained that she would loan him gold to help him arrive in Rome and to meet with the Pope, but he would have to return a King.  The witch also turned the Prince’s knights into pigeons, so they could not escort him on his long journey.  The Prince agreed and left Krakow, leaving his knights-pigeons behind.
