Guest guest Posted October 29, 2006 Report Share Posted October 29, 2006 An old Romanian tale relates the story of a princess named Vrina who fell into abject poverty due to a severe famine in her land. The only possession which she managed to retain was a golden lizard pendant set with eyes of cat's eye chrysoberyl. This pendent had always been her lucky charm, and a famous mystic had told her never under any circumstances to sell it, for it possessed a special power which would enable her to communicate with animals in times of crisis, and thereby save her from ruin. When all of her possessions save for the lizard pendant were gone, she broke down and wept in despair. At that very moment, a lizard with green eyes similar to the color of cat's eye approached and "spoke" to her. The lizard communicated the information that she would find her salvation in the dry bed of the river. So she went to the river with her subjects and upon excavating the dry bed they discovered a rich deposit of fine cat's eye gems, which quickly restored the prosperity of her kingdom.
