“Now we will go to Nagtinawan which is the town of Ginawan, with whom Aponigawani agreed to fight this month.” After that, “You plunder and heads go before us to Kadalayapan, when you arrive at the gate you divide equally and part of you go to Kaodanan.” So they went to Nagtinawan. When they arrived in Nagtinawan, “You Ginawan of this town now the agreed month is here.” “How are you Ginawan? We told you not to go before and you went; now we will all be killed,” said the people who lived in the same town. “Now we seek vengeance.” They looked as if they cut down banana trees when they cut down their enemies. “Please spare me, and if you wish marry me,” said Ginawan. “If that is what you say we will kill you last,” but they did not kill her.
After that they went home and sent all the heads before them and also the plunder. After that they arrived in Kaodanan. “Good afternoon, Uncle,” said Dangdangayan to old man Pagbokasan. “Come up the ladder,” he said. “You go and cook so that these boys may eat,” he said. After that, “You go and get one jar of basi which you used to like when you were young,” said his wife Ebang. As soon as she said this they went and they drank, and Pagbokasan said to them. “This is reserved for Aponibolinayen to drink when she returns from fighting.”
When the old woman had finished cooking, she took the rice from the jar and put it on the woven basket, and she took the meat from the jar and put it in the coconut shells, and so they ate. As soon as they finished to eat, “Now we are not going to stay long, because we must go home,” they said. So Dangdangayan dropped down the women who never go out of the house. “Why Aponibolinayen is here and Lingiwan also,” they said. Dingowan of Nagtangpan took Aponibolinayen and put her inside of a big jar; then they went to Kadalayapan, because they went to take Aponigawani. When they arrived they said, “Good afternoon Uncle,” to the old man Pagatipanan. “Good morning,” he answered, and he was glad. “Come up,” he said. When they went up the stairs they were given basi. While they were drinking they let Aponigawani fall in front of them, and they were all glad, because Aponigawani was there. “How fine that Aponigawani is here; we feared that she was lost,” said the old man and woman. “Ala, boys if you go home now, return soon for we are going to chew betel nut.”
As soon as they went Lakay [169] Pagatipanan and his wife built balaua, and they called one woman medium [170] to begin their balaua. As soon as they built their balaua they sent someone to go and secure betel-nuts which were covered with gold. Not long after the betel-nuts which were covered with gold arrived and the old woman Langa-an oiled them, and she used magic so that the betel-nuts went to invite all their relatives, who lived in other towns, to attend balaua with them. She told the betel-nuts that if any did not wish to attend
