Snake Of Belelle´s River

In the City of Fene in Sillobre, particularly at the Black Well of Belelle´s Dam it lived a great winged serpent and covered withbroad scales. The snake slept at a rocked in the cradle of the river,wrapped with sheets of mud and reeds quilt and aquatic weeds. The waters
seemed to sing sweet lullabies.

The snake was very traveller.Their small wings could hardly withstand a large body skimming. With much training effort and the whole area could go to the beach of Cabanas. Some say that the unsatisfied maternal instinct was to take the nine waves, or perhaps nine
bathrooms, because kids never knew him.

Who saw it was terrified. Fear spread through the area andplanned to kill her. They met residents of several villages and decided to make a timber with a sharp stakes, as a sharp spears.
Loans, kneeling with the tips up, in the path of the serpent in the direction of Cabanas, where flying short and even, sometimes alighting to rest. And there was nailed. The cries of slow death of the animal were heard at great distances. The scales all your body's defense had been able to man, insatiable predator.

Now the Belelle´s waters don´t sing,they cry.
