| Summary | "Povești" by Ioan Slavici is a collection of short stories written in the late 19th century. The tales within this collection are rich in folklore and explore various themes involving heroes, magic, and moral lessons, reflecting a deep connection to Romanian culture and mythology. The opening of the tale "Zâna Zorilor" introduces a mighty and enigmatic emperor whose eyes uniquely reflect a juxtaposition of joy and sorrow. He has three sons: Florea, the strongest; Costan, the stout one; and Petru, the youngest, who is cheerful and musical. The emperor's sorrow stems from a fear that his sons may not be worthy heirs. When Petru bravely decides to uncover the reason behind his father's mysterious eyes, he learns that the emperor’s happiness is tied to the strength of his sons, while the sorrow reflects his doubts about their capabilities. This sets off a quest for Petru and his brothers, who must retrieve water from the enchanted Well of the Zina Zorilor to heal their father's woes, promising an adventurous journey ahead filled with mythical challenges and encounters.
