Once a long time ago, there was a powerful hermit named Lok Ta.
He had three promising students: Moni Mekhala, the brilliant goddess of the seas, Vorachhun, the princely manifestation of the earth and Ream Eyso, a demon whose heart burned with passionate fire. Lok Ta wished to give a gift upon his most deserving student. To determine which of the three that was, he announced a contest in which the first to come back with a glass full of morning dew would own a mysterious gift. When dusk came, Vorachhun and Ream Eyso adventured into the forest.They left not one leaf or blade of grass untouched, impatiently shaking the precious fluid into their glasses. When they returned to the hermit's hut, they found Moni Mekhala sitting patiently with a full glass of dew. She had left her shawl out overnight and won the contest by simply wringing out the fabric over the glass. Proud of all his students, Lok Ta surprised them with gifts to the three gods. Firstly, he turned to Ream Eyso to give him a diamond axe, after to Vorachhun to give him a magic dagger and finally, to Moni Mekhala, she won a crystal ball that was unlike anything ever seen. Soon, egoism grew on Ream Eyso and even already having his axe, he wanted Moni Mekhala's crystal ball as well. Ream Eyso tried to lure the goddess so that he could get the precious gem, but after Moni Mekhala rejected his deals and flew away, Ream Eyso decided to take the crystal ball by force. Ream Eyso flew through the air in search of Moni Mekhala. On his way, he found Vorachhun and attacked him knowing that he would never allow him to steal Moni Mekhala’s crystal ball. An epic battle started and, at the end, Vorachhun was hurled against the side of a mountain. Ream Eyso continued his search of finding Moni Mekhala. After some minutes searching for her, he finally found the goddess. Ream Eyso tried to convince Moni Mekhala by saying to give him the crystal ball or die like Vorachhun. With no fear of what he was saying, she floated to the sky, hoping Ream Eyso would lose her in the middle of the path to the northern lights. Ream Eyso found Moni Mekhala and tried to defeat the goddess.
