The god Pan (Πάν) (Pán) pursued her. Then Syrinx asked her naiad (ναϊάδες) (naïádes) sisters for salvation. They turned her into a reed or in lilac near the Ladon River.
Then Pan made a flute from the plant.
The naiads (Νηϊάδες) (Ναΐδες) (Ναϊάδες) (naïádes), also known as hydriads were nymphs of springs in Greek mythology.
Zeus was their father.
