Listen to the story of Dakrilia who was born by his mother's tears. Storytelling by Dina Gerolymou.


Once upon a time there was a king and a queen and they had three sons. But the sons and king were turned into stone and the queen was left alone. Everyday she'd cry for her lost family and she'd hold the silver cup she used to give water to her children. Her tears would fall into the cup. An old servant thought that it was ordinary water in the cup and served it to the queen.
