RP narrates the story of Flor and Lora. Flor, the youngest brother of many, catches an animal that was destroying the crops. His brothers are jealous and leave the parents' house, but Flor follows them and finds them. His brothers leave him in a well from which the animal rescues him. He visits a king, where he plays a number of games (soccer, sortija) against his brothers. Again, the animal helps him to win. As a price, he can choose a bird and Flor selects the bird that is the daughter of the king to be his wife. He takes her to his home town after the wedding to present her to his parents. However, in his old town he still has a girlfriend and she is jealous of Lora. So, she captures the bird and plucks all her feathers. Lora runs (flies) away and hides herself.
