Batara Guru Sahala

Once, a fisherman named Batara Guru Sahala lived in Batak Land. One day,
he caught a fish. He was surprised to find that the fish could talk. It begged Sahala
to set it free. He did accordingly.
As soon as the fish was free, it changed into a woman. She was so beautiful
that Sahala fell in love at once. He asked her to marry him. The woman agreed to
marry Sahala. However, she told him that he must never let out the secret that she
was once a fish. Sahala promised that he wouldn’t tell anyone about it.
They were happily married and had two daughters. Every morning, Sahala
went out fishing. One day, his daughters brought him his lunch. However, instead
of bringing the food to their father, the two girls ate it. When Sahala knew what
they had done with the meal, he got very angry. He shouted at them saying, “You
behaved exactly like the daughters of the fish!”
They didn’t know what their father meant. They went home and asked their
mother about it. Their mother was very upset. Although Sahala apologized to her,
she would not forgive him for breaking his promise.
Then the earth began to shake and the volcano started to erupt. The earth
cracked and formed a big hole. It is said that the hole became the Toba Lake.
