Once upon a time, there was a man who was living in North Sumatra. He lived in a simple hut in a farm field. They did some gardening and fishing for his daily life.
One day, while the man was fishing, he caught a big golden fish in his trap. It was the biggest catch which he ever had in his life. Suprisingly, this fish turned into a beautiful princess. He felt in love with her and proposed her to be his. She said; "Yes, but you have to promise not tell anyone about the secret that I was once a fish, otherwise there will be huge disaster". The man made the deal and they got married, lived happily and had a son.
Few years later. This son would help bringing lunch to her father out in the fields. One day her son was so hungry and she ate his father's lunch. Unfortunately, he found out and got furious, and shouted; "You damned daughter of a fish". The son ran home and asked her mother. The mother started crying, felt sad that her husband had broken his promise.
Then she told her son to run up the hill because a huge disaster about to come. When her son left, she prayed. Soon there was big earthquake followed by non-stop pouring rain. The whole area got flooded and became Toba Lake. She turned into a fish again and the man became the island of Samosir.
