Because of this, the Cape girl was forced to marry the son of the mountain. However, after entering the bridal chamber, the Cape girl's miserable experience moved the son of Shan, but there was no way to break the spell.

On the second day of their marriage, the Cape girl quietly left. At this time, the leader of the tribe put a more serious curse: "the Cape girl will live alone in the wilderness, and anyone who embraces her will turn into a stone!"
