Born from a grouse egg, the mythical Linda was a beautiful and proud woman who turned down the Moon, the Sun, the Wind and Water in favor of the mighty Kalev. Linda bore Kalev three sons and the youngest of these sons grew up to be a hero worthy of his father"s name: the national hero of Estonia, Kalevipoeg. After Kalev himself had perished, the widowed Linda rejected several suitors, among others the Finnish wind sorcerer Tuuslar. The powerful sorcerer thought to take Linda with him by force, but the noble sky god Uku came to her aid, turning her into stone not far from Tallinn, at Iru hill.
