After the village chief's daughter found out, she cried every day at home. Her tears accidentally fell on an elf, and the elf asked her why she was crying. She told him the reason why. Then the elf asked her if she was willing to sacrifice herself for everyone. The girl agreed without thinking, so the elf turned her into an orange purse flower by the well.
