According to the most widely told ๐๐ข๐ง๐ฎ๐๐๐ญ myth, a pre-colonial settlement was plagued by Tagulipnan, an invisible half-bird, half-human creature that hunted childrenโoften said to appear during full moons.
A warrior-stranger named Mardawan arrived and united the chieftains Aramag, Maragadaw, and Mararag to resist. In the final confrontation, Mardawan summoned three sea guardiansโBugiw (garfish), Malasugi (blue marlin / swordfish), and Manabang (barracuda)โwho struck and defeated Tagulipnan.
In triumph, the people cried โ๐๐ฎ๐๐๐ญ! ๐๐ฎ๐๐๐ญ!โ, remembered as a shout linked to raids and survival, and later tied to the townโs name.
From fire ๐ฅ to waves ๐, from courage to endurance.
A story of strength is about to unfold.
