Rusalka, a lovely water nymph, falls in love with a human Prince and seeks help from the witch, Ježibaba, to become human to win his love. Ježibaba grants her wish but warns that if Rusalka fails to win the Prince's love, she'll be cursed and the Prince forever damned. As a part of the pact, Rusalka loses her voice in the transformation. The Prince, captivated by the beautiful but silent Rusalka, takes her to his castle. However, he soon becomes frustrated by her silence and is drawn to a Foreign Princess. At a ball, Rusalka watches, heartbroken, as the Prince dances with the Foreign Princess, ultimately rejecting Rusalka when she tries to embrace him.Devastated, Rusalka returns to the lake. Ježibaba offers her a knife to K*ll the Prince and save herself, but Rusalka refuses. The remorseful Prince, realizing his love for Rusalka, seeks her at the lake, where she warns him that her kiss will now be deadly. Accepting his fate, he pleads for her kiss and dies blissfully in her arms. The tale concludes with Rusalka asking for God's mercy on the Prince's soul as she sinks back into the lake.
