Once upon a time, there was a monster living at the gates of a village. It was a very scary and very bad monster. It would catch people and crunch them up with its big teeth.
The village was afraid of the monster, and no one dare approach the gates. Everyone was stuck inside the village. When the king heard about this, he summoned his knights. The knights eagerly rode out to defeat the monster.
"Ha! Take that!"
Their swords slashed and their spears flashed, but the monster wouldn't die. The monster tossed the knights into its mouth one by one, horses and all.
What was the king to do? He fretted and fussed and paced the floor, but could think of no solution.
Soon after, the village priestess came to the castle. She was a very kind and good person. The king asked her to defeat the monster guarding the gates.
The priestess accepted the king's request and went to the village gates. But when she saw the monster, she tried to convince it with words instead of killing it.
"Shut up, you! I'm going to eat you up!"
The monster didn't listen to a word the priestess said. But she kept trying to convince the monster to give up.
"It's wrong to eat people, you know."
The monster grew very angry at this and attacked her, killing her with a single mighty blow.
The king and his people shed tears at the death of the kind priestess. God took pity upon them, granting their wishes, healed the priestess.
The priestess opened her eyes just as she had done every morning of her life. She went once more to the monster's lair.
"Fool! You wish to die again?"
"No... this time it's your turn."
The priestess had come to defeat the monster once and for all. As the priestess was very kind, she felt sad about this task. But it had to be done.
"Swords and spears don't work. Arrows and bullets will just bounce off. You can't kill me," the monster laughed. But the priestess used neither sword nor spear. She chanted but a single spell.
"TU FUI, EGO ERIS."
Do you know what happened then? The monster let out a huge cry and then died and vanished!
Thus the villagers were able to use their gates once more. Everyone lavished their gratitude upon the priestess, and they all lived happily ever after.
