Vietnamese Folklore: The Legend Of Mountain And Water Genies - Sơn Tinh, Thủy Tinh

As the legend goes: In the times of King Hùng the 18th, floods and storms had come so often that threatened the people and the country. The King wanted to find a talented person who could fight against the flood and build the country. Two men arrived at the same time: One came from the deep water and had the power to control the water level and all aquatic monsters, while the other came from the mountain and was gifted to convert the dry and stony area to fertile farmland giving fruits and flowers all year round.

Who would conquer the challenge and become the King’s son-in-law?
