This is the story of Wang Takian village, where a beautiful woman called Praethong once eloped with her lover Muen Khiri, after being forced to marry Phloeng. However, they were chased and caught by Praethong, who in his rage killed Meun Khiri. Having witnessed the death of her lover, Praethong committed suicide. The two dead lovers were buried together under a Takian tree.
Hundreds of years passed, however, Praethong could not enter the rebirth cycle due to committing suicide. Instead, she became the mother of Wangtakhian, an entity revered by the villagers. All she could do now was wait to meet her lover Muen Khiri again.
