Once upon a time, millions and millions of years ago, there was a fisherman who was fishing by the Lake Ohrid. His net caught a very beautiful sylph, which was crying and asking him to let her free. The fisherman was amazed by her beauty and didn't want to let her go. She fought inside the net and managed to escape, but unfortunately her dress was stuck in the fisherman's net. Her dress was part of her body and helped her to swim deep into the lake waters, so she pleaded to him to give her dress back, but he refused. Instead, he asked her to marry him, if she wanted to have her dress again. In the end, they got married and had two children. The boy was called Mali i Thatë, while the daughter was called Prespa. She was a good mother, and loved her kids, but every day she was looking for her dress, because she was missing her underwater world. One day, when the fisherman wasn't at home, she found her dress, wore it, dived into Lake Ohrid and never turned back. Littl
