Summary of Hinilawod

In ancient times, there was a Goddess of heaven named "Alunsina", fearing that the
unmarried man might have suggested that the king of the gods "Kaptan" be married.

Many Gods came to the city except Alunsina. But everyone was disappointed because
Alunsina's choice was a mortal named "Paubari".

Paubari was a datu who ruled Halawod.

Alunsina's decision has been outraged by several failed goddesses. Some gods have agreed to
lead "Maklium-sa-t'wan" to hold a meeting to bring down the marriage of Alunsina and Paubari
through a flood in halawod.

But Alunsina and Paubari survived the disaster with the help of Suklang Malayon, Alunsina's
brother. Malayon had blasted the plan of several gods and said that Paubari and Alunsina would go in
higher place.

After the flood subsided, both Alunsina and Paubari returned safely.

After a few years, Alunsina gave birth to triplets and named Labaw Dongon, Humadapnon and
Dumalapdap.

After the birth, Alunsina immediately summoned Bungot-Banwa priest to perform the ritual to
make the twins strong. After the ritual, Labaw Dongon, Humadapnon and Dumalapdap became
powerful and handsome.

The three brothers had their own adventure just as Labaw Donggon fought Saragnayan but
Saragnayan failed and was imprisoned.

Because of this, Labaw Donggon's son retaliated and immediately fought Saragnayon. Labaw
Donggon's son eventually succeeded and they both returned to their place.

Humadapnon and Dumalapdap were also incensed by Labaw Donggon's imprisonment.


Humadapnon promised to avenge the brother until Saragnayan's descendants.

After Humadapnon left to take revenge, Dumalapdap also left to plead and marry
"Mahyokhuyokan Maharaok Mahadeok." Dumalapdap fought the creature with two heads called
"Balanakon".

After that, Dumalapdap also resisted the "Uyutang" creature resembling a plea with large
fangs and poisonous claws. Dumalapdap has been fighting the Air Force for seven months.

Dumalapdap was very successful and included "Loot-Pony Hang Mahunokhuyokan" to marry.

When the brothers returned, Datu Paubari celebrated their success.


Summary of Labaw Donggon
Labaw Donggon is the son of Angry Alunsina and Buyung Paubari. He was a very handsome
man who fell in love with Grandmother. She gave Grandmother Called Mother Coyote a lot of
presents just to allow the two to marry. He invited the whole town to their wedding. And soon he fell
in love with a beautiful girl named Voyager Doronoon. She had lost it and soon married. Again Labaw
falls in love with another woman named Nagmalitong Yawa Sinagmaling Diwata. But the woman is
married to Buyung Saragnayan just as she is also in power. Kill me first before you get my wife,
Buyung Saragnayan tells her. I'm ready to fight you, Labaw replied to Saragnayan. They fought for
many years with their powers but Labaw could not kill Saragnayan. Saragnayan's power is stronger
than Labaw's.

Labaw was defeated and he was tied up and put in jail by Saragnayan's pig. Meanwhile, his
wives Abyang Ginbitinan and Anggoy Doronoon gave birth to their firstborn. Abyang calls his son Asu
Mangga and Anggoy Doronoon na Buyung Baranugun. Her two children wanted to see Labaw and
decided to look for her. With the help of Buyung Barunugun's crystal ball, he learned that Saragnayan
had captured him. The two brothers succeeded in freeing their aged father and his body was covered
with long hair.

You need to know Saragnayan's secret power before you can fight him! Labaw said to his two
children.

Yes father, Baranugun replied. I will send Taghuy and Duwindi to Abyang Alunsini to inquire
about Saragnayan's secret power.

Baranugun learned from Abyang that Saragnayan's breath was being kept and guarded by a
herd of pigs in the mountains. He and Asu Mangga went to the mountains to kill the swine. They ate
the heart of it that was Saragnayan's life.

Suddenly, Saragnayan weakened. He knew what had happened. He said goodbye to the
Nagmalitong Yawa. He is ready to fight the two sons of Labaw. Only Baranugun faced him in a
bloody fight. Baranugun killed him in a manual fight. After the battle they sought their father. They
saw that he was hiding in the net of Saragnayan. They were afraid of Saragnayan's brothers.
Baranugun killed them all and released Labaw in the net.

When Abyang Ginbitinan at Anggoy Doronoon saw Labaw they wept in despair. They found
that Labaw could no longer hear, nor did he use his intellect. They bathed it, dressed and fed it. They
took good care of it. Meanwhile, Buyung Humadapnon and Buyung Dumalapdap, the brothers-in-law
of Anggoy Ginbitinan were married to Burigadang Pada Sinaklang Bulawan and Lubaylubyok
Hanginon Mahuyukhuyukon. The two women are the good siblings of the Nagmalitong Yawa.

When, Labaw Donggon known about the marriage; he tells the two wives that he wanted to
marry Nagmalitong Yawa Sinagmaling Diwata. I want to have another son! said by Labaw Donggon.

Abyang Ginbitinan at Anggoy Doronoon was shocked by what the husband said and because
they loved him so much, they fulfilled his request. Labaw lay on the floor and the two women turned
to him, restoring his strength and vigor of mind. Labaw was ecstatic and his voice echoed throughout
the land.
