There the spirits wash all their joints in the black river that runs through Banua Mebu'yan, and they wash the tops of their heads too. If the spirit could return to its body, the body would get up and be alive again. Story of Lumabat and Wari Tuglay and Tuglibung had many children. One of them was called Lumabat.
Clara Kern Bayliss - Philippine Folk-Tales

All nursing children who still want the milk, go directly, when they die, to Banua Mebu'yan, instead of to Gimokudan, and remain there with Mebu'yan until they stop taking milk from her breast. Then they go to their own families in Gimokudan, where they can get rice, and "live" very well. All the spirits stop at Mebu'yan's town, on their way to Gimokudan.
