    Hello everyone introduce my name is

    alvin. Now i will read the folklore in


    english.

    Roro Jonggrang

    Long time ago, there was a kingdom


    named Prambanan.

    All the people of Prambanan lived


    peacefully.

    But then, Prambanan kingdom was


    attacked and occupied by the Pengging
    kingdom.
    Prambanan then was ruled by Bandung
    Bondowoso of Pengging kingdom.

    He was a mean king.

    He also had great supernatural power.

    His soldiers were not only humans, but


    also genies.

    The king of Prambanan had a beautiful


    daughter named Loro Jonggrang.
    Bandung Bondowoso fell in love with her
    and wanted to marry her.
    “You’re very beautiful. Would you be my
    queen?” asked Bandung Bondowoso.
    Loro Jonggrang was shocked.

    She didn’t like Bandung Bondowoso


    because he was a mean person.

    She wanted to refuse, but she afraid that


    Bandung Bondowoso would be angry
    and endangered the people of
    Prambanan.

    Then, she came up with a plan.


    “If you want to marry me, you have to
    build a thousand temples for me in just
    one night,” said Loro Jonggrang.

    “What? That’s impossible!” said


    Bandung Bondowoso.

    But he did not give up.

    He consulted with his advisor.

    “Your Majesty can asked the genies to


    help built the temples,” said the advisor.

    So, Bandung Bondowoso summoned his


    entire genies soldier and commanded
    them to help him built a thousand
    temples.

    The genies worked in unbelievable


    speed.

    Meanwhile, Loro Jonggrang heard from


    her servant that the building of a
    thousand temples was almost finished.

    She was so worried. But again, she came


    up with a great idea.

    She asked all of her servants to help her.


    “Please prepare a lot of straw and
    mortar. Please hurry up!” said Loro
    Jonggrang.

    “Burn the straw and make some noise


    pounding the mortar, quickly.”

    All those servants did what Loro


    Jonggrang ordered them;

    burning straw and pounding the mortar,


    making the genies think that the sun is
    going to rise.
    “It’s already dawn. We have to go,” said
    the leader of the genies to Bandung
    Bondowoso.

    All the genies immediately stopped their


    work and ran for cover from the sun,
    which they afraid of.

    They didn’t know that the light was from


    the fire that burning the straw, not from
    the sun.

    Bandung Bondowoso can’t stop the


    genies from leaving.
    He was angry.

    He knew Loro Jonggrang had just tricked


    him.

    “You cannot fool me, Loro Jonggrang. I


    already have 999 temples.

    I just need one more temple. Now, I will


    make you the one-thousandth temple.”
    He pointed his finger to Loro Jonggrang
    and said some mantras.

    Magically, Loro Jonggrang’s body turned


    into stone.
    Until now, the temple is still standing in
    Prambanan area, Central Java.

    And the temple is called Loro Jonggrang


    temple.

    That’s all from me, thanks for your


    attention and see you
