Dos jóvenes enamorados viajan en diligencia y, de repente, se une a los viajeros un misterioso desconocido. El vehículo se detiene en una posada, y el desconocido desaparece con el joven.

La Muerte le muestra tres velas (vidas) a punto de extinguirse y le explica que sólo podrá recuperarlo si logra salvar alguna de ellas.
