How the Story Goes
I'll add a short summary soon, I swear ^-^;

LONG VERSION At the bottom of the creek was a single stone, as if one hole was blocked. Indeed, there was a hole, or even a gate to the underworld, where great treasures were kept, which would not be found anywhere in the world. And between these riches, on a golden bed there is a richly dressed beautiful maiden sleeping. And the maiden is asleep because somebody has stuck a gold pin in her head, perhaps out of greed, or maybe out of hatred. She is asleep and will not wake up until that pin is pulled out and then marry her. But it's hard and dangerous task, terrifying creatures guard the treasures and the maiden. Twice a year, on Ester and the Kupala Night, the stone moves and you can see the wonders of the cave or even go down and try to get them.

One Easter a young blacksmith stood over the brook and wished he could be the one to see the treasure. We would just take them I wouldn't have to work anymore. As soon as he thought so, the stone moved away and the blacksmith saw the sacks of money, the bowls of pure gold full of jewels and as many expensive clothes as he could never imagine. But nothing could compare with the beauty of the sleeping maiden, she was so beautiful that stood in awe. She slept and only her tears flowed, and what fell - whether on her shirt, on the bed or on the floor - immediately turned into a jewel. She slept and sighed in pain from the pin and as she sighed, the leaves on the trees over the stream rustled in grief. The smith wanted to enter the dungeon, but the hole closed.

From that day the blacksmith could not find peace thinking about the treasure. He could work, sleep or eat as his heart kept remembering the crying maiden and her treasure. When he could not bear it anymore, he went to an old woman, gave her a silver coin and asked for advice.

"Well," says the old lady, "there is nothing else to do, but wait for the Kupala Night and then, when the stone is moves, go into the abyss. You get the pin out of maiden's head, wake her up, marry her, and you become the greatest man the world has ever seen. Only don't forget that I helped you. And remember this: when the monsters will surround you, and you will start to fear cross yourself and speed up your pace ... Don't be afraid, don't show them you're scared and they won't be able to hurt you.

After two months of visiting the stream, and spending theweek before Kupala Night one day, exactly at noon, the stone moved away, and the blacksmith entered the pit with an ax in his hand. Indescribable monsters surrounded him immediately trying to get him, grabbing sleeves and legs, but none of them dared to hurt him. They knew the blacksmith wasn't afraid. "You are going to die here, a blacksmith!" screamed the monsters, but he just strengthened his grip on the ax and answered them with worst insults. Finally, the blacksmith reached the golden bed, where even the creatures couldn't access. Once he saw the gold pin, he tried to pull it out. However the blood gushed, the maiden grabbed his sleeve and cried desperately:

"Why do you cause me such pain?!"

This is when the blacksmith felt the fear of the first time. The largest and creepiest monster immediately attacked the blacksmith. Blood spilled over the stones. Since then, the stone blocks the pit into the cave making it impossible to be found again. The stream dried up, and the maiden remains in the abyss half awake crying so loud that sometimes shepherds can hear in the meadows, and she will cry until the end of the time.

I'm sorry for mistakes in translation, but it's quite late and I can't think straight anymore XD

Family
Senna, The Sleeping Maiden Senna is Waleriana's mother and her only family. Senna is still asleep in her cave guarded by demons. Waleria can talk to Senna whether she's asleep or not, but they can meet only in a dream.

In fact Waleria wasn't born. She's not a human After the blacksmith ran away Senna, half awakened, tired of the pain and loneliness, dreamed a dream of a child of her own. From this dream Waleria was created. Waleriana nor her mother knows whether she's a dream or a demon, but they just go with a dream even though she can't reach her mother just like other monsters.

Friends
Helena Sorceress

Dove Wild

Pet
One of the demons guarding Waleria's mother keeps following her more than any other ever since she was first dreamt, so she named him Baldrian. Baldrian can change forms. He usually takes form of a black, horned cat or a goat.

Romance
In a romantic context Waleria thinks man are an unnecessary problem. She despised them. Actually.]

Enemies
She thinks all men with romantic intentions are her enemies.

Outfits
Waleriana only wears pastel and toned down colors, she especially loves shades of purple and pink. Waleria loves all kinds of jewelry, jewels, gold, silver, bronze and generally anything shiny, BUT real - she can't stand fakes or imitations and she can recognize them without hesitation. She likes light, flowy fabrics, nothing to fitting. She has an unexplainable aversion towards pants, unless it's a pajamas.
