Legend of Son Tinh (Mountain Spirit) and Thuy Tinh (Sea Spirit)
Once upon a time,
Emperor Hung Vuong the Eighteenth had a beautiful daughter, Princess Mi Nuong.
Her beauty was so renowned that many suitors from foreign lands came to ask the
Emperor for her hand. However, the Emperor did not believe that any one of them
was good enough for his beautiful daughter. He wanted Mi Nuong to marry someone
really distinguished and powerful. Her mother, the Empress was very much
concerned for Mi Nuong's future. The Empress looked at her daughter saying:
"It is time you should get married, my darling. I hope your father will
find a suitable man for you".
