Once upon a time, there was a man who was living onsumatera. He lived in a simple hut in a
farming field. He did some gardening and fishing for his daily life.
One day, while the man was
do fishing, he caught a big golden fish in his trap. It was the biggest catch
which he ever had in his life. Surprisingly, the fish
turned into abeautiful princess. He felt in love with her and proposed her to
be his wife. She said “Yes, but you have
to promise not to tell anyone about the secret that I was once, a fish,
otherwise there will be a huge disaster”. The man made the deal and they
got married, lived happily and had a daughter.
Few year later, his daughter
would help bringing lunch to her father out in the fields. One day, his daughter
was so hungry and she ate her father’s lunch. Unfortunately, he found out and
got furious, and shouted “You damned
daughter of a fish!”. His daughter
ran home and ask her mother. The mother started crying, felt sad that her husband
had broke his promise.
She told her daughter to run
up the hills because a huge disaster was about to come. When her daughter left,
she prayed. Soon there was a big earthquake followed by non-stop pouring rain. The
whole area got flooded and become Toba Lake. She turned into a fish again and
her husband became the island of Samosir.
