The sun shone on the calm sea. Princess Nuwa smiled at its reflection. It looked like a gold pebble in the water.

Nuwa walked down to the beach. She slid her small boat into the water. She rowed out to sea.

Suddenly, clouds hid the sun. Birds returned to the beach. Rain poured down. A strong wind blew across the sea.

The wind made the waves rise. Higher! Higher! Waves pounded her boat.

The strong waves tipped over Nuwa’s boat. The boat sank into the sea.

Princess Nuwa sank too. She fought against the waves. They seemed higher than the sun.
