The legend about the grand prince Oleg

Once upon a time the grand prince Oleg lived. There were really ancient times. The capital of Russia was Kiev that time. Oleg was very brave and powerful. He had his favorite horse and liked it a lot. Everywhere he was with his faithful horse. He took part in a lot of wars against the enemy nations. Once he was going to conquer a neighbouring land and on his way he met a foreteller. He asked him what is waiting for him in his future. The foreteller told, that he will conguer a lot of countries and will be one of the greatest princes, but he will be died because of his lovely horse. He didnt believe, but he wanted to stay alive and he changed his horse on the new one. And left his lovely horse in the village. A lot of years passed and he decided to find out, what is a fortune of his horse and how it is living. But people told that his former horse is already dead. Than Oleg was really angry! His horse was dead before him and he is still alive, so the foreteller was telling the false! He decided to go to the place where the horse was died. When he came to that place he only found a pile of bones. He stayed near it and then venomous snake went out of the head-bone of his horse and bited him in his leg. And he died immediately and everybody understood, that the foreteller was right-he got his death from his horse.
