It is said that here was a mountaineer named Gjergj Elez Alia, who had nine serious wounds on his body and was on his deathbed. He had fought a lot against foreign oppressors, his mother and father had died, but he had a sister who took care of him day and night.
Being in this situation, a black whale, a brave one, came out of the sea. This barrage ruined and destroyed the country, cutting down all the brave who have dared to come out to fight, until it was Gjergji’s turn. Thus, he was forced to fight for the honor of the house and his sister.
George ordered his sister to go and take the war chest (horse) to Nallban-probatini. Balozi shows himself to be a wicked man and begs her for “cheeks and eyes”. The girl answers him with harsh words and goes to knock on the door of the nallban-jaran (godmother). This one runs away from the beautiful horse and the next day Gjergji comes out to the log of the men of the terrible beast.
At first, the brave men fight each other with words, then a duel starts with the fiercest one, and Gjergj Elez Alia finally emerges victorious by cutting off the enemy’s head. Then he returns home, calls the villagers around him, forgives them everything he has from his property and leaves his sister’s bequest to them.
But, precisely at that moment when he tries to hug his sister for the last time, both of their hearts stop in their chests and the brother and sister die in each other’s arms. The villagers dig a wide and long grave and bury them as they were, while at their grave they plant a sturgeon at the head as a sign of life.
