The nervous, naughty fish is called Moslem. He is resting on the sea weed board when a luminous ring drops down and wakes him up. He gets angry and roars toward the ring. The luminosity of the ring catches his eye and he decides to get it. He makes a huge effort for this purpose and faces lots of difficulties. Then the ring is stuck on the body surface of a giant under water creature called Masmoom. Masmoom is slept. Moslem mistakes it with a large stone and continues his effort to pull out the ring from the surface. Eventually he releases the ring and follows it upward in order to catch it. Masmoom who had been awake for a while swallows moslem and the ring both.Masmoom spits the shiny ring out. The ring stucks in the sandy ground again. Meanwhile another fish comes. He enjoys the luminocity of the ring and the loop goes on.
