| Sad story for the Legend of the Well. Summary: 3 Turks prisoners were promised freedom after digging a well through stone. Before the well complete, the king passed on. The wife did not respect his husband words and killed the 3 prisoners. Prisoners' last wish was to write on the well - You may have water, but you have no soul. |
