Task 3: Read the summary of the story of the “Ibalon” then, answer the
questions that follow. Write your answers on a separate sheet of paper.
Forthwith Kadunong described the ancient land and spoke of its first hero,
Baltog, a white Aryan, who had come from Boltavara (Bharata-varsha or India).
He planted a linsa patch in Tondol (now in Kamalig) which, one night, was
foraged by a giant wild boar (Tandayag). The furious Baltog chased the
Tandayag, killed with his bare hands, and hung its enormous jawbones on a
talisay tree in front of his house in Tondol. For this marvelous feat, he was
acknowledged chief of the local hunters. The clans of Panicuason and Asog
came over to marvel at the monstrous wild boar in Ibalong.
Next to come was Handyong. With his followers, he fought the monsters of
the land. But Oryol, a wily serpent who appeared as a beautiful maiden with a
seductive voice, was one whom Handyong could not destroy. Meanwhile, Oryol
admired Handyong’s bravery and gallantry. Because of this, Oryol helped
Handyong clear the region of ferocious beasts until peace came to the land.
With Ibalong rid of wild creatures. Handyong turned to making wise laws
and planting the land with linsa and rice. A period of the nvention followed: boat,
farming tools, weaving looms, claywares, kitchen utensils, tree houses, and even
a syllabary. Together, the people built a society with culture. It was a golden
period in Ibalong when even slaves were respected under the laws of Handyong.
Then came a great flood, freed by Unos, that changed the features of the
land. Three volcanoes, named Hantik, Kulasi and Isarog erupted simultaneously.
Inundations caused lands to sink, from which Lake Buhi came about, or rise, as
in the strip of seacoast in Pasacao, Camarines Sur, and wiped out many
settlemets, especially the Dagatnong settlement in the Kalabanga Gulf. The
Malbogong Islet Mountain sank in Bato, forming a lake.
Despite the calamities, Ibalong grew powerful under Old Chief Handyong,
whose constant companion and good friend, by then, was the young Bantong.
Although given a thousand men to destroy the half man and half beast
Rabot, who could change enemies into rocks, Bantong slew it single-handedly –
to the loud cheers of these thousand warriors that reverberated throughout the
forests and mangrove swamps. Brought Ligmanan, the corpse of Rabot was
horrible to behold that the Great Handyong himself was shocked at the sight.
