The beautiful young girl Gara lived in Gomera, where a lake was considered a foreteller to help teenagers to get a true love. When Gara asked the lake, it told her to be afraid of fire.
During local festivals she met Jonay (a handsome boy from Tenerife island). As soon as they fell in love, Teide volcano erupted. Their love was forbidden by their parents, and Jonay was invited to leave Gomera island.
Jonay swam for hours to see his beloved. Threatened by the forbidden, they met in Gomera Island's highest point. They took a stick, sharpening its top and bottom, and they put the stick in their stomachs, and they held each other in a ethernal embrace.
Nowadays, this point is called Garajonay in honour of the couple and it is National Park from 1981.

"Invited to leave" sounds humorous here. "Asked" or "forced" to leave is probably better.

Well done.
