Kebo Iwas

Once upon a time, in the area of Kintamani, lived a
giant who was taller than any mountain called Kebo lwa,
He would help local people to build temples, dig ditches,
and cut terraces out of the hillsides for rice paddies. In
return for his work, the villagers would give him food, Kebo
lwa's appetite was enormous, however, there was never
enough food to satisfy him, His hunger would sometimes
make him angry, and he would destroy everything.
Once, a very poor harvest happened in the island. The
villagers could barely feed themselves and moreover Kebo
lwa, This angered Kebo 'vita so much that he rampaged
across the island. He destroyed everything in sight until all he
had built including all homes, rice fields, and temples were
ruined. The villagers were furious at Kebo lwa. Then, they
gathered to discuss how to stop him. As a result, they planned
to trap him,
One day, the villagers begged Kebo lwa to help
rebuild everything. They would give him some food. The
giant agreed and worked at replacing everything that he
had destroyed. The villagers then asked him to build a giant
well. As he dug, the soil piled high next to the well. The pile
was as high as a mountain, After eating, the giant fell asleep
in the well. Whilst he was sleeping, the villagers poured
huge amounts of sticky lime into the well. The lime set
around the giant, and when he woke up he was unable to
escape. Then, the well began to till with water and it soon
overflowed and became a lake.
Today many people bekeve that the lake is Lake
Batur. The legend has it that underneath Lake Batur lies the
sleeping giant, and the soil that he dug out of the lake was
pilled high to form Mount Batur.
Once upon a time, there were a king and his
queen who lived in the kingdom of Belinyu.
They didn't have any child. Until one night, the queen
had a dream of a turtle. It is said that the queen
would have a baby, and she had to give a komala
necklace to her baby. The queen woke up and she was
holding a komala necklace in her hand. She told her
dream to the king, and he was very happy.
Shortly, the queen's dream became reality. She
delivered a beautiful baby girl. The king named her
Komala. She grew up as a pretty girl. However, she had
a bad attitude because her parents always spoiled her
too much.
One day, Komala heard her parents were talking about
the turtle in her mother's dream. She thought that the
turtle was very interesting animal, so she wanted it as
her pet. She insisted to find it, and the king allowed her
to look for the animal.
Accompanied with the king's guards, Komala
searched the turtle, and finally, she found it in a beach.
She shouted to it, "Smelly Turtle, wait for me," in several
times, but_the.turtle kept swimming. Komala ran after it
into the sea, she tried to catch it. Until then she finally
drowned and disappeared, and all of her guards could not
save her. Now, people call the beach, Penyusuk
The Snow Queen
Once, there was a boy called Kay and a girl called

Gerda, who were best friends. They were as close as
brother and sister, and they lived next door to each
other. Roses grew in the window boxes of their two
houses and entwined together. In the summer, the
children could sit on their balconies and talk to each other.
In the winter, they played in each other's houses.
One winter, when Kay was visiting Gerda and her
grandmother, the children were reading their favorite
book by the fireplace. Suddenly, Kay called out in pain.
"My heart," he cried, "and my eye!" Two splinters of
glass from an evil magician's mirror had pierced Kay's
heart and eye. Now his heart was as cold as ice. From
that moment on, he didn't want to play with Gerda any
more.
One day, when Kay was playing on the ice, he tied
his sled to that of a mysterious stranger. it turned out to
be the Snow Queen, and she wouldn't let Kay go. She
carried him away to her palace. Gerda couldn't
understand what had happened to Kay and searched for
him everywhere. In the end she left their village,
determined to find him.
After weeks of searching, she met a talking reindeer,
who promised to take her to the Palace of Ice, where
the Snow Queen was keeping Kay a prisoner. Gerda had
never been so cold in her life. The palace was made of
ice. She ran through halls of icicles and corridors of
packed snow, until she came to a vast room with a
frozen lake in the middle. And on the lake sat her old
playmate. "Kay!" cried Gerda, but he did not know her.
Gerda ran across the lake, slipping and sliding. "It's me,
Gerda," she said. But still he did not recognize her.
Gerda could not bear it. She started to cry and her
hot tears fell on Kay's chest, melting the splinter of
magic glass inside his heart. Then Kay cried, too, and
the splinter in his eye was washed away. Now they
were friends again.
Kay and Gerda returned home. Gerda's
grandmother was waiting for them, and the roses were
in full bloom. When they looked in the mirror, Kay and
Gerda saw that they had now grown up. But they still
felt like children at heart
Once upon a time, there lived a king named Sri

Sagening in Klungkung, Bali. He had a beautiful wife named Ni
Luh Pasek. One day, Ni Luh Pasek was asked to leave the
palace. Ni Luh Pasek was very sad, but she had no other
choice. She became very sad when she knew that she was
pregnant. Ni Luh Pasek arrived at a village. An old man felt
very sorry with her condition. His name was Jelantik Bogol. He
was a holy man and had supernatural power. He married Ni
Luh Pasek. And when the baby was born, Jelantik. Bogol

stepfather taught him the skills. One day, his' stepfather

more supernatural power. Before he left, his stepfather gave
him two weapons, a spear and a keris. It's a traditional wavy
double-bladed dagger. I Gusti Gede went to the Den Hill and
meditated. While he was meditating, a spirit of the jungle
carne to him. The spirit spoke to him, You will be a great king.
Go to Penimbangan Beach, help the people there."
I Gush Gede continued his journey. When he arrived at
Penimbangan Beach, there was a ship from Bugis sinking at
the beach. The people had tried to help, but they did not
succeed. I Gusti Gede wanted to help. He asked the people to
stay away from the ship. He prayed and took out his weapons.
Suddenly, two big spirits came out of the spear and the keris.
I Gusti Gede asked the spirits to pull the sinking ships back to
sea. The people could not see the spirits. They only saw I
Gusti Gede moving his hands. The spirits slowly pulled the
ship. In just a minute, a ship just went back in the sea. The
owner was very happy. He gave some of his wealth to I Gusti
Gede. People were amazed at his power. They named him as I
Gusti Panji Sakti.
