Limestone
The Limestones of Ampoita, three lonely rocks rising out of nowhere above a small transylvanian village. Many legends are bound to them; locals say that they are sea foam, the remains of a long lost ocean. The elder believe the stones are cursed, they say that when a calamity is about to happen water flows right out of the dry rock. Some even say that the devil is locked inside the stones, a gateway to the bowels of hell guarded by an ancient underground monastery.
The stones are a challenge for hikers. Unfortunately many of them fell off the cliff and died here, and some who survived said that they felt a mysterious force that pushed away their hands from the rock.
