The Master Mason, Manole, And His Crew, Decided To Make A Sacrifice. The Morning That Followed, They Would Build The Walls Of The Church Around The First Of The Wives That Would Come To Bring Them Food. That Happened To Be Ann, Manoles Wife. There Is Even A Mark Left On The Wall Where She Was Buried. Manole Built Himself A Pair Of Wings, And Similar To Icarus Flew And Crashed A Few Hundred Meters Away From The Monastery, Where A Water Spring Emerged.
