According to the great folklorist Qemal Haxhihasani, he was a "hero, who enjoys a wide popularity in our heroic epic, does not have any direct connection with the band of Muji and Halil, therefore he is taken as a character of a separate sub-cycle in the framework of the songs of the Kreshniks." .

Legend

In the Albanian version, Gjergj Elez Alia, a mountaineer, has nine serious wounds on his body and is lying on his deathbed. Many have fought against foreign oppressors; His mother and father are dead, but Gjergji's sister takes care of him day and night. And in this situation, a black whale, a brave one, has come out of the sea. This barrage ravages and destroys the country, cutting down all the brave who have dared to go out into the battle log. It's Gjergji's turn. He must fight for the honor of the house and his sister. He orders his sister to go and take his war chest (horse) to the nallban-probatini. This is shown to be a wicked man, begging the girl for "cheeks and eyes". The girl answers him with harsh words and leaves to knock on the door of the nallban-jaran (godmother). This one runs away from the beautiful horse and the next day Gjergji goes to the log of the men of the terrible Bailoz. At first, the brave fight each other with words, then a duel between the fiercest starts, and Gjergj Elez Alia finally emerges victorious - he cuts off the enemy's head.

He returns home, calls the villagers around him, forgives them everything he has from his wealth and leaves his sister in trust. But it is precisely at that moment when he tries to hug his sister for the last time that both their hearts stop in their chests, and the brother and sister die in each other's arms. The villagers dig a wide and long grave and bury them as they are occupied with each other. And a thistle was planted on top as a sign of life. (Man turns to wood - the remains of primitive totemism).
