The league of bikings in search of freedom

It was a clear sunny day. The temperature was mind-bogglingly high. The sandy brown earth cracked under the intense heat of the sun. Coruscating rays of blazing light beat down mercilessly on the earth. The parched yellow grass sizzled and boiled in the surrounding sun scorched land. A group of weary travellers was trudging without a shade. Half of them wore antlers. Top half of the antlers had been burnt and the marks of the sun were scorched over the antlers. The top half of the antlers had been scorched by the sun. The bottom parts were covered by their stinky and sweaty hair. The rest of the travellers wore pot hats. Their eyes were tired and burnt. The travelers set out to search for the mysterious Land of Milk. Soon they came across some old fellows and an angry young lady with a pot hat on. Both of them gave them a strange smile.

"Welcome to the Land of Milk." said the old gentlemen to the group of people "We are happy to have your company." He promised the group a free meal and free lodging for the night under the bright sun. The young lady was the host of the tea party and also of a Bed and breakfast situated nearby.

The group of travellers, who entered the small yard of the Bed and Breakfast all entered the tea party hall. They were led through the hall and up the stairs. They were herded down one long hallway and told to take a right turn and keep walking right past several doors until they arrive at the big red door at the end of the hall. The room was decorated with portraits made of wood. Several ancient suitcases stood upright against the wall.

"And that is the end of the tour." said the old fellow "Enjoy your meal and keep it down." He stormed off. The young lady bustled away. The group of travellers were left to themselves. All of them suddenly started to talk at once.

The first traveller said, "I think we are lost." The second traveller said, "No we are not." The third traveller said, "I know were we are. We are in the elephant room." The fourth traveller said, "We are lost in space."

The fifth traveller was calmly untangling her leash. She finally said, "This is not the elephant room." She said as she shook off the dustiness of her collar. The sixth traveller had a confused look on her face and couldn't stop chatting. "Where are were is the elephant room?" she asked in a bit of a panic. The seventh traveller said, "I just realized that that door marked number twelve is of a different color from the rest of the doors. It is a locked door." The eighth traveller said, "What kind of tea party is this?" The ninth traveller said, "I would like a cup of tea for myself please." The tenth traveller said, "I really want some tea. I am always in search of a hot cup of tea. I just want a cup of hot tea some times." The eleventh traveller said, "Who are these old men?" The twelfth traveller fiddled with a poorly hidden knob on the door. "Why is this door locked?" he asked. The thirteenth traveller said, "Maybe we have to solve some kind of riddle to open this door. Only then we can escape from this room." The fourteenth traveller said, "I think I saw someone going inside the door." The fifteenth traveller said, "Maybe it is closed for good." The sixteenth traveller said, "I think the sun is going down now." The seventeenth traveller said, "I think this room is going to be trapped. The eighteenth traveller said, "I want to get out of here." The nineteenth traveller said, "We should leave now." The twentieth traveller said, ", We should all leave now and find a place where we can relax." The person asking for a cup of tea was really confused. She said in a little bit of a panic, "I am afraid if we keep staying here the sun will set while we are still in here." She just can't get out of the door.
