THE LEGEND OF LAKE BATUR

THE LEGEND OF LAKE BATUR
A long time ago, there lived on the island of Bali a giant-like creature named Kbo Iwa. The people of Bali used to say that Kbo Iwa was everything, a destroyer as well as a creator. He was satisfied with the meal, but this meant for the Balinese people enough food for a thousand man.(ORIENTATION)
Difficulties arose when for the first time the barns almost empty and the new harvest was still a long way off. This made Kbo Iwa wild with great anger. In his hunger, he destroyed all the houses and even all the temples. It made the Balinese turn to rage. (COMPLICATION) So, came together to plan steps to oppose this powerful giant by using his stupidity.
They asked Kbo Iwa to build them a very deep well, and rebuild all the houses and temples he had destroyed. After they fed Kbo Iwa, he began to dig a deep hole. One day he had eaten too much, he felt asleep in hole. The oldest man in the village gave a sign, and the villagers began to throw the limestone they had collected before into the hole. The limestone made the water in the hole boiling. Kbo Iwa was buried alive. (RESOLUTION) Then the water in the well rose higher and higher until at last it overflowed and formed Lake Batur. The mound of earth dug from the well by Kbo Iwa is known as Mount Batur. (RE-ORIENTATION)
