 Story Time
BIAG NI LAM-ANG
Pedro Bukaneg
Don Juan and his wife Namongan lived in Nalbuan, now part of La
Union in the northern part of the Philippines. They had a son
named Lam-ang. Before Lam-ang was born, Don Juan went to the
mountains in order to punish a group of their Igorot enemies.
While he was away, his son Lam-ang was born. It took four
people to help Namongan give birth. As soon as the baby boy
popped out, he spoke and asked that he be given the name Lam-
ang. He also chose his godparents and asked where his father
was.
 Story Time
After nine months of waiting for his father to return, Lam-ang
decided he would go look for him. Namongan thought Lam-ang was
up to the challenge but she was sad to let him go. During his
exhausting journey, he decided to rest for a while. He fell asleep
and had a dream about his father's head being stuck on a pole by
the Igorot. Lam-ang was furious when he learned what had
happened to his father. He rushed to their village and killed them
all, except for one whom he let go so that he could tell other
people about Lam-ang's greatness.

Upon returning to Nalbuan in triumph, he was bathed by women in

the Amburayan river. All the fish died because of the dirt and odor
from Lam-ang's body.
 Story Time
There was a young woman named Ines Kannoyan whom Lam-ang wanted
to woo. She lived in Calanutian and he brought along his white rooster
and gray dog to visit her. On the way, Lam-ang met his enemy
Sumarang, another suitor of Ines whom he fought and readily
defeated. Lam-ang found the house of Ines surrounded by many
suitors all of whom were trying to catch her attention. He had his
rooster crow, which caused a nearby house to fall. This made Ines look
out. He had his dog bark and in an instant the fallen house rose up
again. The girl's parents witnessed this and called for him. The rooster
expressed the love of Lam-ang. The parents agreed to a marriage with
their daughter if Lam-ang would give them a dowry valued at double
their wealth. Lam-ang had no problem fulfilling this condition and he
and Ines were married.
 Story Time

It was a tradition to have a newly married man swim in the

river for the rarang fish. Unfortunately, Lam-ang dove straight
into the mouth of the water monster Berkakan. Ines had Marcos
get his bones, which she covered with a piece of cloth. His
rooster crowed and his dog barked and slowly the bones started
to move. Back alive, Lam-ang and his wife lived happily ever
after with his white rooster and gray dog

 Lesson Proper
Setting is the element of place and time in narratives.
When we watch a movie we are often brought back to the
place and time when and where the story happened. It
could be in a city, in the air or in the sea. It could also be
a time in the past, the present or the future. The same
happens when we read or listen to selections. Setting
makes the story vivid and interesting. In some stories,
setting and scene can change abruptly. Place and time
may not be said directly instead clues are given for the
readers to infer.
 Lesson Proper
A good example of narrative in which the setting is not described
directly is the following:

When Carlo woke up, he sensed that something was

not right. There was no light coming through his
curtains. His room was dark. His mom didn’t yell for
him to eat breakfast. There was no smell of fried
rice and eggs, so he slowly got out of bed and
tiptoed to his curtain. Peeking behind his curtain, he
saw trees dancing with the strong wind and rain
outside and sighed there was no chance for school
that day.
 Lesson Proper
Other setting in a narrative may include the following:
Place – geographical location
Time – historical period, time of day, year, etc.
Weather conditions – is it rainy, sunny, stormy, etc.
Social conditions – writing that focuses on the speech, dress
mannerisms, customs, etc. of a particular place
Mood or atmosphere – refers to the feeling is created at the
beginning of the story whether it’s bright and cheerful or dark and
frightening.
 Lesson Proper

Characters refer to the persons or animals around which

the story revolves. They are the heroes or the villains in
the story.
The hero or protagonist is the "good guy or girl”
and can be defined as the principal or lead character of a
literary work who displays common traits, which set him
apart from the other characters such as: driven by a
goal, duty, or curiosity, has a relatable character flaw,
brave and courageous superior intelligence or strength,
invoke trust or likeability etc.
 Lesson Proper
Here are some of the famous heroes/ protagonists:
1. Odysseus - principal or lead character of Homer’s epic
“Odyssey”. He has the defining character traits of a Homeric
leader: strong, courageous, noble, a thirst for glory, confidence in
his authority, and a sharp intellect.
2. Matilda - lead character in the movie Matilda. She is shown to
be a kind and caring girl who loves her friends. She is very polite,
but does become a bit scared when it comes to Miss Trunchbull, the
villain which she overcomes later on.
3. Captain Jack Sparrow – the lead character in the Pirates of the
Caribbean film series who uses his wit and deceit to attain his goals
and prefers to end disputes verbally instead of by force, shrewd,
calculating and eccentric.
Protagonists
 Lesson Proper

Now, let’s go the other kind of character

which is a villain or antagonist. This is the bad
guy or girl who comes up with devilish plots
to cause harm or ruin. The types of villains
are traitor, patriarch or matriarch, tyrant,
outcast, devil, evil genius, schemer, lunatic,
fanatic, etc.
 Lesson Proper
Here are some of the famous villains:
1. Joker- the ultimate villain in the movie “ Dark Knight”
bringing chaos and despair to the city of Gotham and an end to
Batman’s reign as the city’s hero.
2. Daniela -is the woman that is full of angst, envy,
insecurities, and jealousy in “Kadenang Ginto ".She is the cause
of all conflicts and heartaches to the life of Romina Mondragon
and her family.
3. Cruella de Vil -is a fictional character created by English
author Dodie Smith as the main villain /antagonist of her 1956
novel The Hundred and One Dalmatians. She’s a horrible woman
who wants the fur of the puppies in order to make a fur coat.
