The Tatars also went to the mountains, to take them in a captivity. Maricheyka, the shepherd Ivan's wife, noticed Tatars and sent Ivan to warn highlanders, but she stayed to keep off the enemy.
Ivan began to run. Maricheyka took the place way to the enemies, she was caught, and forced to show the way to the highlanders. She led them in the swamped wildernesses. Then Tatars rushed to kill her, but in the last minute earth began to tremble, a hurricane rose, began thundered, rocks fell down. Earth parted - a lake appeared and all Tatars perished in it. People named that lake Maricheyka.
