Tale summary
Once upon a time, it is said that there was a beautiful girl, named Viorica, who was approached by an ant colony one day and asked to be their queen. Viorica turned out to be a good queen for the ants, and the latter repaid her by raising her palace (the mountain) more and more, as well as by planting flowers on it. One day, a handsome prince came to the mountain, and Viorica fell for him. The feelings were mutual, but Viorica had promised the ants not to leave them. She decided however to go outside once, only to discover that time had passed differently outside her kingdom and her love interest was not an old man. Thus, she returned to the ants, forever to be their queen. The mountain which was her palace is now called Furnica Mountain.
