In the early days, the world was in abundance there were fishes, animals and vegetables available anytime for anyone who wishes. Everyone lives a wealthy life.
One day an unwanted event came, there was drought. The plants get dried and the fish and animals died. There was scarcity, everyone was hungry and there were neither foods nor water available. The people search for water under the ground but unfortunately the water they found kill them and there was only two people who survived, Bugan, the girl who was flung to Kalawitan hills and Wigan his brother was flung to the Amuyao hills.
They meet again because of the fire Bugan lighted. They searched for people but they found nothing but dead bodies, they were the only one alive.
