Note 202 — 25

When he was in the middle of the field he turned back his face and saw four young alzados who followed him through the cogon grass, and he used magic so that the flame of the fire was so hot that the alzados who followed could not reach him.202 When the flame of the fire was over he turned his face again when he reached the middle of the next field. He used his magic again so that the flame was so high there that the alzados, who always followed, could not reach him. As soon as the flame was gone they followed again, and Awig shouted. The alzados were frightened and were afraid to follow him for they were then near to Page 157Kaodanan. “Ala, we will go back or the people of Kaodanan will inherit our heads,” and they went back home. Those were all who were left for Awig did not give them poison.
