Not long after all the other people from the other towns arrived where they were making Sayang and Aponitolau tried to put the belt on each person to see if it fitted and no one was the right size. As soon as Don Carlos arrived Aponitolau tried the belt on him and it was all right.
In jungle she meets rooster and monkey, who tell her she is mistaken and advise her to return home. She continues her way and finally reaches ocean. Is carried across by a carabao which at once informs its master of the girl's presence. The master comes and meets girl. They chew betel-nut, and the quids turn to agate beads, so they marry. They make Sayang and send betel-nuts to summon relatives.
"Tikgi, tikgi, Ligi, can we cut your rice which is amasi mixed with alomáski in the place of Domayási?" "Are you here now, tikgi?" said Ligi. "Go and cut the rice and see if you can cut it very soon, and after that I will make Sayang, and you must come tikgi," said Ligi. "Yes, we are going to cut and you do not need to stay here. You can go home if you wish," said the tikgi. So Ligi went home.
When the balaua was over the people who went to attend the Sayang went home, and Aponibolinayen said to Kanag, "Now, we will take you back to Kadalayapan," and he replied, "No, for I wish to live here." When they could not take him to Kadalayapan, Aponibolinayen said to Aponitolau, "I am going to stay here with him," but Aponitolau would not let her stay, but took her back.
Not long after the old woman Alokotán, who conducted the Sayang and made them dance Da-eng, arrived and she began to perform the ceremony. When it became morning, "You people who live with us, come and pound rice," said Aponibolinayen. So the people gathered and pounded rice for them. As soon as they finished pounding rice she commanded her liblibayan to go and get betel-nuts.
"Now, Kanag, we are going to make Sayang and invite your mother and father so that they can see that you are a young man again," said his father-in-law and mother-in-law. They made Sayang and they sent someone to invite their relatives, and someone went to Asimbáyan of Ilang and told her that Kanag Kabagbagowan, who lived in Kalaskigan, and his wife Amau were making Sayang.
Ceremonies made for him are without avail. Aponitolau finds himself up in the air country. He meets maiden who is real cause of his plight. They live together and have a child which grows every time it is bathed. Aponitolau takes boy down to earth to visit his half brother. While there the tears of the mother above fall on her son and hurt him. They celebrate Sayang and the sky mother attends.
And Aponitolau said, "You will never eat me. Go and get your headaxe and spear, for you must fight with me. I will take your head before I make Sayang." The old man was angry and he stood up and went to get his headaxe and spear. "You are the only person who ever came in my town. Go on, and throw your spear, if you are brave," said To-odan.
Not long after the betel-nut which went to the town of Gamayawán arrived, "Good afternoon, lady. I cannot tarry, I came to invite you, for Ligi and his mother and father of Kadalayapan make Sayang," said the betel-nut. "I cannot come for there is no one to watch the house," said Gamayawán. "If you do not wish to come I will grow on your knee," said the betel-nut.
Upon his arrival home a great celebration is held; people dance, and skulls are placed around the town. Aponitolau and his wife decide to celebrate Sayang, but he goes first to take the head of old man Ta-odan. He uses magic and arrives at once where foe lives. They fight and Ta-odan is beheaded. While Aponitolau is gone, an Ilocano comes to town and tries to visit his wife.
