When he was in the middle of the way he became very tired, for it was far.  So he used magic and he said, “I use my power so that I will arrive at once at the town of To-odan of Kalaskigan.”  Soon after he arrived in Kalaskigan.  When he arrived at the yard beside the balaua the old man was lying down.  The old man saw him and said, “Eb, I have a man to eat.”  And Aponitolau said, “You will never eat me.  Go and get your headaxe and spear, for you must fight with me.  I will take your head before I make Sayang.”  The old man was angry and he stood up and went to get his headaxe and spear.  “You are the only person who ever came in my town.  Go on, and throw your spear, if you are brave,” said To-odan.  “If I am the first to throw my spear you will never have a chance to throw yours, for I will kill you at once.  You better throw yours first,” said Aponitolau.  The old man was angry, and he threw his spear.  But his spear glanced off from the body of Aponitolau, for he used his power so that everything glanced away from his body.  The old man To-odan ran toward him and tried to cut off his head, but the headaxe could not cut Aponitolau, and the old man To-odan said to him, “You, truly, are a brave man, that was why you came to my town.  Try and throw your spear at me, for if you can hit me it is all right, for I have killed many people.”  Aponitolau threw his spear at his side, and it went clear through his body and To-odan laid down.  Aponitolau cut off his head.

Not long after Aponitolau went back home and Don Carlos of Kabaiganan (Vigan) [183] was anxious to go and see Aponibolinayen.  So he commanded his spirit companions to be ready to go with him to Kadalayapan.  As soon as they were ready he said to them, “You go first, my companions, we are going to the town of Aponibolinayen, for I have heard that she is a pretty woman, and I wish to see her.”  Not long after they arrived at the river, and they got on to the raft.  Soon they arrived at the well of Kadalayapan and Indiapan was dipping water from the well, and Don Carlos spoke to her.  “Is this the well of Aponibolinayen?” Indiapan said, “Yes.”  “Will you go and tell her to come here and see what I have to sell?” Indiapan went up to the town and said “Aponibolinayen, Don Carlos wants you to see what he has to sell.”  “I don’t wish to go and see what he has to sell.”  So Indiapan went back to the well and said to Don Carlos “Aponibolinayen does not wish to come, and she does not wish to buy what you have to sell.”  So he pondered what he should do.  “The best thing for me to do is to go to their house to get a drink.”  So he went up to the town and said, “Good morning, Aponibolinayen, will you give me some water to drink?  For a long time I have wished to drink your water.”  Aponibolinayen answered, “Why did you come from the well?  Why did you not drink while you were there?” “I did not drink there, for I wished to drink of your water.”  Aponibolinayen did not give him any for she was afraid; then Don Carlos used magic so that she dropped her needle.  The needle dropped and she said to him, “Will you hand the needle which I dropped to me, Don Carlos.”  So Don Carlos picked up the needle and he put a love charm on it, and he gave it to her. [184] Not long after Don Carlos wanted to go back home, but Aponibolinayen would not let him go, and she said, “Come up in the house.”  So he went up into the house.
