A mer­maid who is the hero­ine of a pop­u­lar local leg­end. It tells the sto­ry of the daugh­ter of the sea king Tri­ton, who fell in love with a sim­ple fish­er­man. The father was not hap­py with such a match for his daugh­ter, so he killed the young man, which was a great blow to the mer­maid. Day and night she cried until her tears turned into amber stones — the same ones that the first set­tlers found on the shores of the Baltic Sea.
