Topielec
This is an old revision of this page, as edited by 178.235.188.240 (talk) at 19:29, 13 May 2020 (THIS IS A VERY WRONG DESCRIPTION! As a Slavic person i find this extremely misleading. "Topielec" is not a a mythological demon! He's called "Utopiec". The word "Topielec" means a drowned body, but it has no further meaning, Utopce are created from the souls of the dead drowned bodies called indeed Topielce. But Topielec itself is NOT a mythological creature!!!). The present address (URL) is a permanent link to this revision, which may differ significantly from the current revision.
