} Swan Maiden {
Swan Maiden is another example of a story that has many variations in different parts of the world. But mostly it involves a young man, who happens upon a flock of swans removing their skins to become beautiful maidens. The young man spies upon them from a hiding place and steals one of the skins. Once the maidens finish their bathing they all put their skins back on and turn back into swans. However, one of them is not able to find her skin and has to remain human. The young man takes the maiden as wife and hides her skin. What usually happens next is that years later the maiden regains her skin and disappears, but sometimes they go through different trials and live happily ever after.
