Roro Jongrang knew Bandung is smarter than her. Suddenly, she got an idea. She woke up all the
people on the palace and ordered them to make the noisy sounds so that the roosters would think it
had already dawn. So, all of the demon went away. Roro Jongrang and the dayangs went to
Bandung Bondowoso to state if Bandung Bondowoso failed to fulfill her job.

Roro jongrang: Bandung Bondowoso, you fail to fulfill my requirements , so you can not marry me.
Bandung Bondowoso: But it almost finishes…………I have made a well and 999 temples.

Dayang: But, you had promised me to fulfill my requirements to make 1000 temples, but because
you can not finish this job you cannot marry with my princess.

his boss that the day was still midnight. Bandung Bondowoso was very angry with Roro Jongrang.

Bandung Bondowoso: You are fraudulent! You lie to me! You make me so angry. I will make you
to be the statue to completed this temple.At once the princess turned into a statue. Knowing this,
Bandung Bondowoso regretted this and he went away in to a fair land. Then, the people called the
statue as Prambanan Temple and Roro jongrang statue, Roro Jongrang statue of Pancoran.
