~Lorelei's Story~
Lorelei was said to be a strikingly beautiful maiden with locks of gold who sat upon the rock awaiting the return of her lover. Her lover never returned, so she threw herself off of a cliff headfirst into the water, to her death. According to the legend, Lorelei’s spirit remains sitting on the rock to this day combing her beautiful long hair and singing a soft melody. Apparently, her looks are so charming that sailors passing are distracted and before they know it, shipwrecked. They say that Lorelei lingers there seeking revenge against her lover. O.O
From time to time, a murmuring sound can be heard in the rock (possibly the crevices in the rock or caves) which is said to be her hypnotizing melody. The murmur is a sound that is caused by the echo of a nearby waterfall and strong currents that bounce off of the rocky shore. Lorelei’s song is rarely heard today due to the immense amount of urbanization (like civilization and roads, building, more people..ect) in the past few hundred years.
