Aguane

Spirits are the patrons of alpine meadows and mountain springs from Celtic mythology. They were also mentioned in medieval European (in particular Italian) folklore.

Aguans wander through alpine meadows, swim in rivers and lakes and protect the purity of the water. They look like tall, beautiful women with long, loose hair.

People are friendly to people, but if a person muddies the water in a mountain spring, then they can drag a person under the water or lure him into caves and devour him there. The same punishment is reserved for rapists, because the Aguans do not forgive the abuse of women.

Sometimes they come to crowded places to talk and even help with homework. As a rule, they appear to people in the guise of ugly old women with goat hooves or feet turned backwards.
