Sina and the Eel

 Once upon a time, way back in the days on an island named Savai´i, lived a beautiful young girl named Sina. On the island, Sina befriended and eel. Every evening, under the moonlight, they would swim and talk. He told Sina of how he was once a prince. He grew larger and more demanding over Sina´s love. At this time Sina was frightened by him. So she ran to relatives in a nearby village.

She would make excuses just to get away but that wouldn't keep him away from Sina, sometimes he would follow her or come up to appear at the surface of the water. She eventually told her uncle and cousin. Soon her cousin was sent to kill the eel. He sliced and sliced his head off his body. R.I.P Prince Eel.


Sina cried and with his last breath, he asked Sina to bury his head for remembrance. Soon after, his head will sprout a tree that would bear fruit with refreshing nectar. The eels face will be on the fruit, 2 eyes 1 mouth. Each time Sina drinks from the fruit she would be in fact kissing the eel.


And that's the story of Sina and the Eel.

The End.
