My Favorite Famous Epic Story

I would like to introduce to you my favorite and the very famous Epic story in the early 1500s of Central Visayas of the Philippines archipelago, a historical fiction was created, because of the man named Rajah Mangubat. During the time of Rajah Mangubat's reign. He was not only known as a good warrior, but also as an undefeated one. Nobody stood a chance against him especially with his extraordinary battle skills and extra ordinary strength that even his fingertips emanate power. In one of Rajah Mangubat's expeditions, he met a village priestess or babaylan who prophesized that he would be killed by a woman with a twin snake someday.Because of this prophesy, Rajah Mangubat killed the said Punong Babaylan.

Rajah Mangubat becomes anxious about the prophecy not only because he will eventually be killed, but also because the person who will take over his power is a girl - a girl who has a snake for a twin. With this, he orders his warriors to kill all pregnant women in his own village tribe and the other villages that are under his govern.Only Datu Bugna's village survives Rajah Mangubat's terror because they have long been friends and alliances.

What Rajah Mangubat doesn't know is that the baby girl that he has been looking for to be killed has been born in Datu Bugna's territory. Amaya is Datu Bugna's daughter from Dal'lang, an uripon. And because he wants to protect Amaya, he hides her in a secret chamber as a "binukot" and tells her that Dal'lang, is already dead. Amaya's twin snake is thrown away to the forest and is told that it may only come back if Amaya is in dire need of help.

Amaya has once attempted to escape from her chamber when she wanted to see the outside world for the first time. That was when she saw Prince Bagani for the first time. They immediately fell in love with each other. No matter the distance and the years that have passed, they still have not forgotten that day when they first met.

Because of Dian Lamitan's evil desire to get rid of Amaya, she betrays her husband Datu Bugna and tells Rajah Mangubat her husband's plan of revolt. Rajah Mangubat's men take Amaya from her chamber and use her as blackmail to make Datu Bugna confess. He eventually does and Rajah Mangubat kills him in front of Amaya.

Bagani is shocked as well when he finds out that the girl he once fell in love with is now a slave. In spite of this, he still remains in love with her. However, Amaya tries to get rid of her feelings for him all for her plans' sake.

Now the fiction story of  Amaya was promoted by the National Historical Commission of the Philippines and Department of Education due to its cultural concept that shows and depicts the Filipino beliefs,tradition,and mores in the Pre-Hispanic era .It also teaches the history of the Philippines. In means of Epics and Legends that passed through generations. In this manner the Epic was aired in the prime time daily show of GMA Pinoy TV with the very famous Philippines actress Marian Rivera.
