As soon as he arrived at the place of Silit it said to him, "Where are you going, Aponitolau?" "I am going to get the oranges of Gawigawen of Adasen." "Stand on top of that high stone so I can see if you have a good sign." So he went and Silit made a great noise. As soon as he made the great noise he jumped. "Go back, Aponitolau, and start another time, for you have a bad sign." "No, I go."
Whereupon Silit also advised him not to go on. In spite of all the warnings, Aponitolau continued his journey, and upon coming to the ocean he used magical power, so that when he stepped on his head-ax it sailed away, carrying him far across the sea to the other side. Then after a short walk he came to a spring where women were dipping water, and he asked what spring it was.
Silit and the dog were sleeping and did not see them go inside of the town. Soon they arrived in the yard of the golden house of Balbalaoga of Dona and they were ashamed to ask for water to drink, for they were naked. So they went to the balaua and slept, for they were tired.
While they were sleeping, Balbalaoga saw them in his balaua, and he was surprised, because no one was permitted to enter the town, for Silit and the dog prevented. He said, "What is the matter of the guards that they did not see those people enter the town? Perhaps they are my relatives." So he took some clothes to the balaua for them. He covered them with blankets while they slept.
