Formerly , in wide of ocean , there was a fight between a shark called Sura and a crocodile called Baya . They quarreled just because of scrambling for prey . Both of them were strong , skilful , clever , ferocious , and gluttonous . They had quarreled many times , but no one had won or failed . Finally , they made an agreement . " I tired of this continuous quarrel , Baya , " said Sura . " I did so . What we have to do to stop our fight ? " asked Baya . Sura , who had owned plan to discontinue their fight , immediately explained , " To stop our fight , we better divide the authority territory into two areas . Me , as the ruler of underwater , and I must prey on the prowl just in water area . While you as the ruler of continent and you have to look for your prowl in continent . As boundary between water and continent is place reached by water when ebb ! " " Okey , I agree with your idea ! " said Baya . Because of the division of authority territory , there was no fight again between Sura and Baya . Both have agreed in honor of each region . But at one particular day , Sura looked for his prowl in the river . He did it stealthy so that Baya didn 't know . But one day , Baya found this unexpectedly deed . Of course Baya was very angry knowing Sura impinge his promise . " Hey Sura , why do you impinge regulation we have agree on ? How dare you entered river which representing my authority region ? " asked Baya . Sura , who felt guilty , answered , " I impinge agreement ? This river has water , isn 't it ? And I have spelled out members that my territory is in the water , right ? So , this river is my authority region . " " What ? That river is located in continent , while your area is sea . Mean , that river is my region ! " Baya insist . " It can 't be like that ! I have never told if ' water ' only sea water . I think an irrigate river is also ' water ' , " answered Sura . " Do you intend to ask for trouble , Sura ? " asked Baya . " No , I think my reason is strong enough and I 'm sure that I 'm in the correct side ! " said Sura . " You intend to angle me . I 'm not as stupid as you predict ! " said Baya start to fulminate . " I don 't care you bright or stupid . The important is river water and sea water are my authority ! " Sura didn 't willing to fail . " If so , you mean to lie me , don 't you ? ! Thereby , our agreement is cancelled ! The most powerful one will become single author , " said Baya . " Quarrel again ? I 'm not scared of you ! " challenge Sura egotisticly . Than , a hard duel between Sura and Baya started again . This contention progressively awful and exclaim each other . They were pouncing , nipping , beating , and dashing against each other . During split second , water around them became squeezed by secretory blood of bodily injury from both of them . They continued until scrap furiosly without rest at all . In this awful contention , Baya got a bite on the right of his tail . Hereinafter , his tail always stiff to left side . Whereas Sura 's tail also nipped till almost break .

He agreed to fulfill Jonggrang 's wish and started to work it immediately . He used his power to call all the genies and asked them to keep on working until they completed 1000 temples by the time the rooster crowed the next morning . The genies worked without stop any second . They would only stop by the time the rooster crowed . Soon hundreds of temples were completed . This made Roro Jonggrang restless . She could not sleep or even closed her eyes . She tried to think any way to fail Bondowoso . Finally , she got an idea . She cut paper in the shape of a circle and glued it in front of a candle holder . She lit the candle and carried it to the chicken coop where the rooster slept . When the rooster saw the candle , it thought that it was almost dawn and the sun was going to rise soon . The rooster quickly got up and in a second , it crowed . The working genies heard the rooster and thought that the morning had come . Instantly , they stopped working and disappeared leaving the undone temples . There were 999 temples that completed . One more to be built . Bondowoso was disappointed to see this . He was very mad . When he found out that it was the work of Roro Jonggrang , he came to her and cursed her into a stone . Prince Raden Putra was married to a princess named Dewi Limaran . One day when Dewi Limaran was walking in the palace garden , she saw a snail among her lovely flowers and she had one of her servants pick it up and throw it away . The Snail was actually an old witch who had disguised herself as a snail . The witch was very angry , so she cursed Dewi Limaran and changed her into a golden snail and threw it into the river . The stream carried it far away from the palace . On the side of a big forest , there lived a poor widow . Her living was only fishing . One day it was a particularly bad day as she didn 't catch any fish . Again and again she spread her net , but nothing got caught into it . At last she pulled up the net to go home . Suddenly she saw something shining at the bottom of it . It was only a snail . Nevertheless she picked it up and took it home . Its shell shone like gold the old woman had never seen such a snail before . At home she put it in an earthen pot . She then went to bed and soon was fast asleep as she was very tired . The next morning when she woke up , she found to her amazement that the floor had been swept clean and there was some food on the table . She wondered who had done all this . She thought she was dreaming , but she was not . She thought and thought but could not think of anybody who could have been so generous to her . Some days passed ….… . . she then got an idea . The next morning she took her basket and went out as usual , but shortly she returned to her hut and hid herself . Suddenly she heard a soft movement inside the earthen pot and saw the snail creeping out of it . It grew bigger and bigger and in a moment a lovely young girl stood where the snail had been . The empty shell fell to the ground behind her . Quickly the young girl swept the floor . Then she took rice , vegetables , meat , eggs etc . out of the pot and began cooking . The king persuaded his son to look for another bride , but at first Prince Raden Putra refused as he could not forsake his wife . In the end , however , the prince asked his father if he could go out to find a bride , but one who was a look - alike of his former wife . An old faithful servant accompanied him on his trip . They went from town to town and from village to village until one day were travelling through a big forest and they lost their way . Finally the men came to a big river and not far from it they saw a hut . They went to it to ask for some food and drink as they were hungry , thirsty and dead tired . The old woman welcomed them warmly . Raden Putra found the meal served by the old woman excellent . She told him that her daughter had prepared it . Raden Putra then asked whether he might meet and thank her daughter . The old woman had no objections and called her daughter to come out . The young girl appeared and knelt down in front of Raden Putra with her head bent . When Raden Putra saw her , he caught his breath in great surprise as the young girl looked exactly like his former wife princess Dewi Limaran . " You are the bride I 'm looking for ! " he cried out . But the girl shook her head and said that she had made a promise : when a man wanted to marry her , he had to obtain the holy gamelan ( Javanese orchestra ) from heaven which could make music without being touched . Raden Putra was willing to try and went out into the forest . He then fasted and meditated . After a hundred days the gods heard and granted his wish . Once upon a time , a beautiful lady named Dayang Sumbi gave birth to a boy which she named Sangkuriang . When Sangkuriang was old enough to hunt , he took his mother 's dog Tumang ( which according to this legend is an incarnation of a god and also Sangkuriang 's father ) and ordered Tumang to chase after a boar . When Tumang did not follow Sangkuriang 's order , Sangkuriang became very angry and he killed Tumang . He carved out Tumang 's heart and brought it back to his mother . Dayang Sumbi took the heart , cooked it and ate it . When she discovered that the heart belonged to Tumang , her husband , she was overcome with wrath . She sent her son away , but not before she hit him with a spoon and left a deep scar on his head . Sangkuriang travelled around the world . After a long while , he arrived back in his village again without recognizing it . He saw a beautiful lady and fell in love with her . Little did he know that she was his own mother . He asked for her hand in marriage and she agreed . Dayang Sumbi later realized that Sangkuriang was her son , as she recognized the scar that she had inflicted . She tried to tell him and break off the wedding , but he didn 't believe her and insisted to go on with the wedding . Dayang Sumbi then set an impossible condition that Sangkuriang has to fulfill in order to marry her : he should build her a big boat and a lake by damming Citarum river , all within one night , and it shall be finished by dawn . Sangkuriang agreed to the condition . He built a boat from a large tree , and with the help of spirits , he dammed the Citarum river with landslides . The water eventually rose and filled the plain , turning it into a lake . When dawn was near , he was almost ready . Dayang Sumbi realized this , so she prayed for divine intervention . As an answer to her prayers , the eastern horizon lit up . Deceived by the lights , cocks crowed and farmers rose for the new day , thinking that dawn has broken . Sangkuriang was also deceived . He thought his endeavor has failed . Angrily , he kicked the boat so that it toppled over . This boat became Tangkuban Parahu mountain ( tangkuban means upside down , and parahu means boat ) . The pile of leftover woods became Mt . Burangrang , and the rest of the big tree became Mt . Bukit Tunggul . The lake became lake Bandung ( which literally means ' dam ' ) . A long time ago , in a small village near the beach in West Sumatra , a woman and her son lived . They were Malin Kundang and her mother . Her mother was a single parent because Malin Kundang 's father had passed away when he was a baby . Malin Kundang had to live hard with his mother . Malin Kundang was a healthy , dilligent , and strong boy . He usually went to sea to catch fish . After getting fish he would bring it to his mother , or sold the caught fish in the town . One day , when Malin Kundang was sailing , he saw a merchant 's ship which was being raided by a small band of pirates . He helped the merchant . With his brave and power , Malin Kundang defeated the pirates . The merchant was so happy and thanked to him . In return the merchant asked Malin Kundang to sail with him . To get a better life , Malin Kundang agreed . He left his mother alone . Many years later , Malin Kundang became wealthy . He had a huge ship and was helped by many ship crews loading trading goods . Perfectly he had a beautiful wife too . When he was sailing his trading journey , his ship landed on a beach near a small village . The villagers recognized him . The news ran fast in the town ; " Malin Kundang has become rich and now he is here " . An old woman ran to the beach to meet the new rich merchant . She was Malin Kundang 's mother . She wanted to hug him , released her sadness of being lonely after so long time . Unfortunately , when the mother came , Malin Kundang who was in front of his well dressed wife and his ship crews denied meeting that old lonely woman . For three times her mother begged Malin Kundang and for three times he yelled at her . At last Malin Kundang said to her " Enough , old woman ! I have never had a mother like you , a dirty and ugly woman ! " After that he ordered his crews to set sail . He would leave the old mother again but in that time she was full of both sadness and angriness . Finally , enraged , she cursed Malin Kundang that he would turn into a stone if he didn 't apologize . Malin Kundang just laughed and really set sail . In the quiet sea , suddenly a thunderstorm came . His huge ship was wrecked and it was too late for Malin Kundang to apologize . He was thrown by the wave out of his ship . He fell on a small island . It was really too late for him to avoid his curse . Suddenly , he turned into a stone . Once upon a time , there was a fisherman lived in a North Sumatra . Don 't ask me the year , all I know it was a very long time before you were born . When he was fishing in a river , a big fish was nailed . This fish had gold color all over its body . It was beautiful . The fisherman was very excited . He imagined a delicious dinner in his head . He put the fish in his basket and went home happily . When he got home , he put the fish in a sink . He grabbed a knife to kill the fish . But when he almost killed it , he saw the fish eyes and felt pity . He took the knife away and put the fish in washbasin and added water in it . " Don 't worry , I wouldn 't kill you " the fisherman said . The fisherman went fishing again . But this time he couldn 't get any fish . He went home with nothing in his hand . His stomach started to sing . He walked home slouching . He was surprised when he saw smoke came out from his kitchen . " Well , I lived alone . I don 't have family . If you want to be my wife , I will be very happy . " The fisherman asked the girl . And so , the fisherman and the fish girl were married . And then they had a child called Samo . Samo was very naughty . He couldn 't be advisable . He always played and never helped his parents . One day Samo was asked to deliver lunch to his father . On his way , he met his friends and forgot to deliver his father 's lunch . Samo played with his friends . When he was tired and hungry , he was resting under a tree and ate his father lunch . Meanwhile his father waited him in starve and tired . His father went home and saw Samo played . " Where is my lunch ? " he asked . " Mmm … mm . . I ate it " Samo said afraid . " Why you ate it ? " his father asked . " Mmm . . mm . . I was hungry after playing with my friend " Samo said . " You were told to deliver my lunch but you didn 't listen . " his father was very furious . " I can 't handle you anymore . You are very naughty . Go away from me . Don 't come home anymore . " His father yelled and evicted Samo from his house . And this what happened if you can 't control your mouth when you angry . His father said the words that he wouldn 't suppose to say . " You … fish 's son . " Suddenly , the sky was getting dark . The storm was breaking the ears . The rain felt from the sky like giant hose sprayed water all over the place . And then the water came out from the land and getting harder . Sumo 's mother was very sad . " I told you don 't tell him about me " she said to her husband . " Now I 'm going back to be fish again . Good by " the mother was transformed magically to be gold fish again and disappear through the water . The water was getting higher and drown the village and formed a lake . Meanwhile , sumo run to the hill and stayed there . The hill then was surrounded by the lake . Now the lake was known as Toba Lake . Toba came from Tuba word means no mercy . And the hill in the middle called SamosirIsland . Samosir means ' Samo di usir ' or in English : Samo have been evicted . This is just a legend , there were so many versions of the name 's story . You can 't tell which one is really true . But I heard this version since I was a little girl . ( Source : http : / / xastory . blogspot . com / 2008 / 09 / legend - of - toba - lake . html ) In Bali in the days before , rather than a pair of husband and wife . They just did not have children . One day they go to the shrine . They apply to the Almighty to be descendants . Time also passed . The wife began to contain . How happy they are . Several months later , the baby was born a male . It turns out that the baby is not born normal . When still a baby , he can not eat food for adults . Every day children are more and more . The children grow into adults that big high . Therefore , he called with the name Kebo Iwa , which means ' Buffalo Uncle ' . Kebo Iwa eat and eat and continue with the gluttonous . Old - time drop his parents to meet the taste of food . They also no longer afford to feed their children . With heavy hearts they ask for the assistance the village . Since it is all the food needs kebo Iim covered village . Residents of the village and then build a house for a very large kebo Iim . They also cook food very much for that . But long - time residents do not feel able to provide food . Then they ask Kebo Iwa to cook your own . They just provide the raw materials . Kebo Iwa has legs very wide , so that he can travel faster . If he wants to drink , stay Kebo Iwa 's nails thrust into the soil . There was a small wells so that the water issue . Because of the strength , Kebo Iwa able to rush troops trying to subdue the Majapahit Bali . Maha Patih Majapahit was done some manuver but never succeed . He was invited Kebo Iwa to Majapahit . He then asks Kebo Iwa make some wells , because the government lacking of drinking water . Kebo Iwa undertakes no suspicious . The Majapahit , he dig more wells . Indeed work hard , because he had to dig in once . When Kebo Iwa are working on the basis of the wells , the Patih ordered troop load Kebo Iwa with lime - then he died in the wells . With the passing away of Kebo Iwa , Bali can be gone down by Majapahit . That is a short history of people who existed on the island of Bali . The famous story centers on the life of the middle - aged Pan Balang Tamak and his wife Men Balang Tamak . The couple was very rich but people in the village excluded them from all social activities . Despite his wealth , Pan Balang Tamak never did anything good for his fellow villagers . He was very clever at cheating people . One day , Kelian Banjar , the village chief , ordered the villagers , including Pan Balang Tamak , to begin renovating the Bale Kulkul , a building that acted as the centerpiece of the village . The people were told to go to the nearby forest to collect wood and other building materials . The chief ordered all members of the village to begin work before sunrise , right after their chickens had left their roosts . Any latecomers would be fined . The next morning , all the male villagers except Pan Balang Tamak went to the forest at dawn and began collecting wood . Returning from the forest at noon , the villagers met Pan Balang Tamak , who looked at them innocently . The village chief was furious and planned to make him pay a large fine . But Pan Balang Tamak was ready with an answer . " " You told me that we had to go to the forest after our chickens came down from their roosts , " " he said confidently . " My chickens left their roosts just a few minutes ago and that 's why I 'm heading for the forest now , " he said . The chief could do nothing but rub his face in despair when he heard Pan Balang Tamak 's argument , which was logically correct . A week later , the villagers were instructed to go hunting in the forest . Each man was ordered to bring along a strong and fierce dog that could bark and climb trees . Anyone who brought a small , weak dog would once again face a fine . Ignoring this instruction , Pan Balang Tamak appeared with a small , skinny dog . The villagers assumed that he would surely have to pay a fine this time . Never short of ideas and tricks , Pan Balang Tamak went hunting with his old dog . Arriving in the forest , he threw his dog up into a tall tree . The dog was in pain and barked loudly . Pan Balang Tamak was happy and cPosted by Cupak and Grantang were two siblings but they had different appearance and attitude . Cupak , the elder was fat , had sideburns , his hair was mess , with a big pot - belly , he loved to eat ; a sneaky and bad young man . He was totally different with his brother named Grantang . Grantang was a handsome young man , every woman who saw him would adore him , he had good attitude . One day , their parent commanded them to work in the farm . Grantang did what he should do like plowing the soil , planting , and cleaning the farm from rice weeds . But what did Cupak do ? He played and went around looking for something to eat . Then , when dusk came he came back to the farm . Grantang had finished doing what their parent told them to do . He saw his brother came but he asked him to get home because their works had finished . On the way , Grantang decided to wash his body on the river before going home and he asked his brother to get home first . Without any refuse Cupak agreed to Grantang request . Cupak was sneaky . He threw himself to the mud . He walked as if he had done hard work . He shouted for his parents . Then his father came . " You know I finished all of works only by my self while Grantang is having fun with many girls , " shouted Cupak . And his father was very angry with Grantang . Then Grantang arrived home with tired but clean body . He wanted to take a rest for a while but that desire would never be fulfilled . His father who was angry with him could not control himself . " Why did you let your brother do all the work ? You are not my son anymore and leave this home soon ; I do not want to look a lazy guy like you , go away ! " said his father angrily . Grantang shocked . However he calmed himself down and said : " It is okay if you expelled me . I hope this home will be better without me , " Grantang left his home with tired body and hungry and hurt too . Knowing that his brother had left home Cupak tried to catch him , he tried to bring him back to home . Cupak persuaded his brother to came back home But Grantang was a determined young man . Along the journey Cupak always moaned that he was very hungry . Grantang asked him to back home but Cupak stuck with his decision to follow his brother . Finally , they arrived in an unknown region . They approached the food seller . Cupak asked her with impolite words . Then , Grantang repeat the question with such of polite words . " Where is it ? Why is this land so quiet ? Then the food seller replied " This land name Kediri and become quiet because our princess was stolen by I Menaru ( name of giant ) . Without any doubt , Grantang wanted to save the princess . Although , Cupak persuade Grantang not to disturbed I Menaru . He is very scared . Then Grantang fought I Menaru by himself . I Menaru died by stabbing of Grantang 's Keris ( a mean of fighting which is looked like knifes but wavy ) . Grantang asked his brother 's help to come out him and the princess . Cupak , pulled the princess ' hand and princess succeed to get out . After helping the princess he closed the hole and let Grantang inside . On another corner , an old couple with no children found Grantang on the river bed . They took him and brought him into their house . Year after year had passed . They considered him as their real child and Grantang loved them as his real parent . Everyday , he helped his host parents to prepare good quality of flowers then his parents sold them in a traditional market near the palace . Coincidentally , the princess loved to buy many flowers from this couple . One day the princess realized that the woman using gold ring that had ever used by Grantang . She asked the woman to invite her to woman 's home , wishing that Grantang lived with this old couple . After arriving there , her wish was granted because she found her real hero finally . She sobbed and moaned emotionally and she asked the old couple to permit her to invite Grantang to stay with her in the Palace , and of course expelled Cupak , the big liar . Her father was very happy since the princess went home together with Grantang . Then they got married and the throne automatically to be Grantangs . The people were very happy because the fool king had expelled from the land of Kediri . Centauries ago , there was a small kingdom in what we recently called as Kalianget Village in Buleleng Regency . Once upon a day the Kalianget kingdom was suffered by a dangerous disease that cause most of the people died . The whole kingdom was in a deep sadness , then the king of Kalianget decided to have trip to entertain himself after the disease was over . It was said that he lost all of his family , at a cross road he met a child who was crying for the death of his parents and his brothers . The king adopted the boy to be his son because of losing all his children . He took the boy to the palace and tought him to be a soldier to service the kingdom in the future . The boy was called Jayaprana . When the boy had got adult he became a handsome and powerful soldier . Although he was a beloved soldier to the king , Jayaprana was a simple person , he dedicated his life to the kingdom especially to the king . Then , the time had come . Jayaprana fell in love with a beautiful flower seller in the market . The girl was Layonsari ( actually this is not her real name . No one know her real name . The name of Layonsari was known after her death ) . Layonsari also fell in love with Jayaprana . The lovely couple intended to get married and this was a happy news to the whole kingdom . It was such a happy atmosphere surrounding the kingdom especially for the married couple . But what 's a pity . When the king met with Layonsari , he suddenly fell in love with Layonsari when Layonsari had been Jayaprana 's wife . He was really obsesive to Layonsari though he realised that Layonsari had been to be Jayaprana 's wife . To have Layonsari to be his wife he had to kill Jayaprana . The king set up a plan tokill Jayaprana by ordered Jhim going to the forest near the sea to kill the intruders / robbers accompanied by his guards . With this strategy the king hoped he could gave Jayaprana away from his wife and he could persuaded Jayaprana 's wife to be his wife . Jayaprana went to the forest although his wife had told him about her bad sign for his journey . He accompanied by Patih Sawung Galing , the head guard of the kingdom . After several days they reached the forest eventually . There were many faiths with the robbers , and they succeeded in killing all the robbers . At the last faith with the robbers , Patih Sawung Galing tried to kill Jayaprana . But he could not . He tried many times with various ways but nothing could kill him . Then Patih Sawung Galing stopped . Jayaprana and Patih Sawung Galing made a conversation . Jayaprana asked Patih Sawung Galing why he wanted to kill him . According to Patih Sawung Galing , that was the king 's order . He told Jayaprana that the king had a desire for Layonsari and wanted her to be his wife . Jayaprana understood and became sad . He knew the king was very kind of him during his life . Jayaprana wanted to give anything to the king but his wife . He had promised to obey all the orders of the king . Of course , Jayaprana could killed Patih Sawung Galing and then killed the king . But what for ? He thought , with the event , he had nothing anymore in his life except his wife . He was so sad . Then he decided to let Patih Sawung Galing to kill him in order to fulfil his promise to the king , his step - father . He took the flower he was using in his hair and gave it to Patih Sawung Galing . Jayaprana also gave his Keris ( Balinese wavy dagger ) to Patih Sawung Galing so he could kill him . Jayaprana asked Patih Sawung Galing to send his mesage to his wife that he was died in order to fulfil his promise to the king . The tears of Patih Sawung Galing dropped when he took the flower and Keris . With just one hit Patih Sawung Galing could kill Jayaprana easily . Then the magic began . A good smell came from the body of Jayaprana and spreaded out to cover the forest . All animals became sad and screamed out but a white tiger . The tiger jumped to Patih Sawung Galing and killed the Patih Sawung Galing with one hit . The rest of the guards , deeply sad , went back to Kali Anget and told the story . At Kali Anget palace , Layonsari , after knowing her husband had been died for the king , commited suicid . And the same thing happened , a good smell came from her body and spreaded out to cover the palace . ( Jayaprana 's wife had her name from this event . Layonsari derived from two words ; Layon means the death body , and Sari means a good smell ) . The good smell was a sign that they had no sins . The king was so sad with the event . Then he withdrewn himself and stopped reigning the kingdom . People of Kali Anget then brought the body of Layonsari to the forest where Jayaprana killed few days ago ( because they wanted to met them together again ) . At the place the people built two graves . One grave for Jayaprana and Layonsari , another grave was for Patih Sawung Galing . The last man was destined to be the guard of the grave forever . After a complete ceremony , Jayaprana and Layonsari were stated as holy spirit . Event untill now people believe that the magic is still going on . Down on the sea , you can see from the hill where the grave lies , there are colorful sea coral that somehow in a special moment the color will change eventually . For centuries there have been many people ( any kind of religions ) come to the grave to worship and built a temple surrounding the grave . It is peace and has a good view on the grave yard , Menjangan island , event some mounts in East Java can be seen from this grave . Indeed in front of the grave is a beautiful peninsula , the grave located some 1 km from the main road toward the top of the hill . The place is known as Teluk Terima the grave , some 15 kms from Menjangan Resort , some 45 kms from Pulaki Temple , the area is considered to be part of West Bali National Park . The story about Jayaprana and Layonsari has become a love story epic for Balinese people . This sad story has been translated to many Balinese traditional songs , many Balinese dances and scrips of Balinese play ( sendratari ) . It is compared much more like Shakespear 's Romeo and Juliet . Though most of the people believe this is a true story but Balinese historians can not find any clue due to its existance except the grave .
