    BIAG NI LAM-ANG
    (by Pedro Bucaneg)
    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.
    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.
    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.
    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.
