- Once there was a man and a fairy used to be fighting with him. The man went to some old people and they told him to have a black thorn stick and when even she would be fighting with him to keep the black thorn stick going round and not to let her strike him. One night, he was going to his cousins house and when he was in the yard she began fighting with him. The people of the house brought out a hot coal of fire and she went into the air in flames.
