Rajah Humabon
Rajah Humabon, later baptized as Don Carlos, was the Rajah of Cebu at the time of Portuguese explorer Ferdinand Magellan's arrival in the Philippines in 1521. There is no official record of his existence before the Spanish contact in 1521, save for extensive narration by Italian historian Antonio Pigafetta on Humabon and the indigenous Philippine realms that existed prior to Spanish colonisation.
Legendary accounts

Specifically, one of the native kings was Sri Lumay, a native from Sumatra, who settled in the Visayas and sired several sons, namely Alho, Ukob, Bantug. Sri Alho, who ruled a land known as Sialo which included the present-day towns of Carcar and Santander in the southern region of Cebu. Sri Ukob ruled a kingdom known as Nahalin in the north which included the present-day towns of Consolación, Liloan, Compostela, Danao, Carmen and Bantayan. He died in battle, fighting with the tribal group known as magalos from Mindanao.

The Children bump into Amos, the towns teenage rebel. He is riding his new
(well new headlight and a coat of paint) motorcycle. Amos fancies Swallow but
has a girlfriend called Candy (Earls daughter).
He offers her a ride on his motorcycle, then asks her why she always walks
away when he talks to her. We have to get home and hide the kittens in the
barn she replies, and Dad will kill us if we are late again.
A trailer with one side removed slides onto the stage. Inside is Boone, he is
preparing supper for himself and the kids. The radio is playing Cold by the

warning is given about a killer who has escaped from prison killing two guards
in the process.
Earl arrives with a very small Christmas tree for the kids. Swallow offers him
some supper but he says that he is singing for his supper tonight.
