Phra Aphai Mani (The Prince and the Mermaid)
Once upon a time, in the golden age of Siam, there lived a young prince named Phra Aphai Mani. Unlike other princes trained in swordsmanship and warfare, Phra Aphai Mani possessed a rare gift his music. He played the flute with such mastery that even the waves of the ocean stilled to listen, and wild beasts lay down in peace.
