Introduction: Four children enjoy a summers day. They spot something gleaming in the spring waters, and while three fish out a magical scale, one is left with a dark and worthless scale. On that night, a strange woman visits them, pleading for them to reverse the curse placed onto her. But to do so, they must sacrifice something they cherish most. The treasures they found within the river rocks of the summer spring. (Message from author: This is a made up folklore story-it is not an actual Chinese folklore story if there is any confusion. This is my work and I did not take any credit from any other author or authors of any original Chinese folklore stories. Thank you, please enjoy this short story.)...
