Description
The legend has been here for I don't know how many generations. In the cold winter nights between Christmas and the turn of the year, when all the tourists are gone and the pilgrimage church is left by the clerics until the first day of the new year, the guardian of the lake comes out of his hiding place and dances under the star light. When you manage to get so close as to touch him, he will answer your most burning question. It is said that no one ever who had the chance to ask found happiness in the answer. To me this means that they posed the wrong question, didn't they?
So this year I let myself hire as an unpaid custodian for the buildings during the period in question. Night for night I have spent on the waterfront, waiting for the miracle to happen. I had to wait until the last night, when suddenly the guardian shone up. To my amazement it is a whale. How the creature can live in a sweetwater lake is beyond my comprehension, but this is surely not the query I will pose to the guardian. I have thought long and hard about what I want him to answer for me, and I am concinved that I will not end up like my legendary predecessors and spend the rest of my life in unhappiness with what I have been told. No, I will make my luck this night. It's just a few oar strokes now ... only seconds ... only a little more effort ...
