anything to order, it would be Ibarra because he was going to Batangas. Lucas next visits him, teasing
him about the money his family will get because of his brother's death. He said they could only be

Ibarra made a pact with Elias to hear what its real purpose was. Elias told Ibarra the grievances of the
rebels. Elias realized that they had different views about the guardia civil and the corporation of the
friars. Finally, Ibarra asked for the story of Elias' life in the belief that it would help him better

accusation. This is exactly what happened to Elijah. The rich, on the other hand, are free to accuse and
accuse even when there is no truth. Elias' father became a victim of such injustice. Ibarra was disturbed
by Elias' previous narration, Elias urged him to take the lead in conveying the people's grievances.

for a change of government did not end there.
