DAMNED GROOM

Beginningless

In a residential area, in an age unknown time and certainly very far from the era of modernization.

gruk......

Sirr....brass..........

The mountain finally spewed out its lava in the form of rocks and hot lava.

'haaaa...........

oppung started as a metabolone......

bereng ma hami nadangol.*

(who created the universe, look at us who suffered this).

Said one of the residents, with the language of the area prostrating in front of his house facing directly to the erupting volcano.

A group of citizens consisting of seven families led by the king of Huta (People of custom) chose to leave the settlement to an area where there is a river that sustains life.

*the leader of an area in the land of ancient toba batak referred to as the king of huta or happung. must be male and hereditary, considered to have supernatural or supernatural science, or supernatural, and is considered as a representative to the ancestors of its indigenous people.

he was wise and considered blameless.*

A group of residents eventually inhabit a mountain valley that has a clear river that can sustain life.

After establishing a hut for shelter, and actually set the place as a place to live because of nature that supports life.

Then the customary stakeholders married his only son to one of the girls from the citizen group.

Marriage based on the blessing of oppung began to become a nabolon (ancestor's blessing), which is considered God or God, for the group of people, it is said that only customary stakeholders can communicate with their ancestors.

*the people of batak toba have a belief in ancestors, called the First Oppung So Nabolon.

Creator of the universe and so master of its creation, the origin of life and eternal life.*

All aspects of the lives of citizens, whether marriage, disease, starting the harvest, or, harvest time and so should get the blessing of ancestors called oppung began to become metabolones through representatives of King Huta or customary stakeholders with a series of customary rituals.

From the marriage of the only child of the wayang customary stakeholders was born a boy named Binsar Batara (meaning the resurrection of oppung began to become a nabolon) or powerful ancestors.

The reason is because Binsar Batara was born when the full moon was full and the ancestors were present at his birth.

Binsar Batara as a child has been dictated or taught by the old man, whom I call Oppung (grandfather). to always submit and respect the oppung began to become a metabolon (the ancestor of the ruler of the universe) or like God for the group of citizens.

The residents with guidance or direction from the Batara Binsar oppung who became the leader, ordered to build a hut with seven poles.

Each pole in gorga (typical carving batak), decorated using charcoal and black chicken blood mixed with tree sap that is believed to be able to preserve the pole hut and adhesive.

The seven-masted hut that roofed the best leaves, the best rattan as a fastener between the pole of the building and the hut must be much better than the hut of the residents. because ancestors have to be above everything else.

Every full moon and certain days on the instructions of the oppung Binsar Batara, as the traditional stakeholders, will perform a ritual worship to the oppung began to become a nabolon.

There must be offerings in the form of seven-sheet tano-tano sprouts (sirh leaves), old and dried betel nuts that are halved as many as seven pieces and black chicken blood.

*tano-tano sprinkles are betel nut where the betel must spread on the ground.*

This ritual is usually done during the full moon, starting rice cultivation, harvesting, marriage until the death ceremony, and all of that should be a guide from the king huta or customary as the leader.

Some mantras are said that are always repeated, and there are always sacrifices in the form of livestock, especially pigs and black chickens.

King Huta said to his grandson, Binsar Batara, that he would later replace his position as a customary stakeholder because Binsar Batara was born with the blessing of his ancestors.

From childhood, until adulthood. Binsar Batara, always invited his Oppung to ascetic to get closer to the ancestors.

Growing up, Binsar Batara thought that everything done by his Oppung, the customary stakeholder, was just a joke, Binsar Batara felt that his oppung was a slave to the Devil and became a citizen as a follower on the basis of custom.

In his mind, all that the oppung (People of custom) do is just a hoax to fool the citizens.by pretending to be able to talk to the occult or oppung began to be Nabolon.

Or indeed his oppung is really a devil worshiper. Binsar Batara felt that there would be human casualties that would be destroyed by his oppung later.

The devil must be opposed, and as long as Binsar Batara is imprisoned with his Oppung.nothing happens.and only his oppung speak for themselves and as if made up.

Binsar Batara intends to burn the offering hut, but it is always hindered.

After the full moon is over, right in the dry season. Binsar Batara made sure there were no more people in the hut, finally Binsar Batara could burn the offering hut.

As expected, the burning hut only let out smoke and obviously it was only the devil to fool the citizens.

Oppung (adatur) immediately came out after the fire began to spend the offering hut. Oppung directly cut his pet black chicken and kowtowed by reciting spells with a raucous voice because of crying.

His cries became more and more intense, and until finally lightning struck and a very strong rumbling sound.

Suddenly there was a heavy rain and strange sounds were heard, oppung (People of custom) looked like people, possessed and finally silent in the middle of the heavy rain.

The strange sounds are over, as well as the rain stopped pouring down on the earth.Adaturans approached Binsar Batara and then looked at him with a sharp and creepy gaze.

"on do oppung nahuhalhosohon seleleng. Alien do parangem, sai marpangalo tu nadenggan roha." *toba batak language.

(this is what I have feared all along from you my grandson, because you are different from others and you are opposite to Me).

The speech sounded vibrating eraya looked at Binsar Batara with anger, and then passed taking a black rooster and cutting it in front of the family and the residents who had gathered.

The chicken's blood is contained in a bowl made of clay and cast a spell while lifting the bowl.

"Oppung started as jabolon, on ma naboi sibahen nokku. dang boi hutogu pahoppu tu dalan mu. pangidoanku oppung lehon maatekakar in pahoppu hon.*batak toba language

(o My ancestors, this is My last offering, I have failed to guide my grandson in your path, but give him a little light for him).

He said after he finished reciting the complicated spell, and immediately the oppung (customer) immediately became silent.

"Binsar Batara, hami napitu in bagos ni oppung mon, Oppung naharhuaso. alai dang tarhissak ho Binsar Batara, ikkon tagamon mu nature tu pangalakup mu."*toba batak language

(Binsar Batara, who has entered your grandfather's body these are the seven rulers of this universe, we are your powerful ancestors. and our ancestors will give the punishment that is in accordance with your behavior.)

Said the oppung king huta (adatur) with a different person, he was like the damage of the Devil who worshiped him all this time and his eyes were red and his face was slightly glowing in the darkness tonight.

"in portibi on ma ho massai leleng-leleng na. jala taonon mu akka nabarnit sian roha dohot akka pangalakkup akka natorop, nadi haholongi ho manadikkon sahalakmu in portibi on. dangol ni roha, sipu-sipu ni atte-ate alani tading-tading nadihaholongi ho. jala ikkon can mu pitu anak boru in sedanggan roha dohot pambahanen. songon sude tiang ni sopo-sopo nadi tutung mi. ikkon songgop do tondi nami in simanjujung boru-boru naeng oroan mu na papudihon.in papituhon boru new pe sae suda parsitaonmu in portibi on." *toba batak language

(you will live a long life, you will see the betrayal of those around you, the suffering of others and see other sufferings.

You will suffer watching those you care about leave you in this world.

You must marry 7 kind women according to the number of pillars of our house that you have burned.and the seventh girl is your end.and the seventh girl must be our blessing.)

So he said, until finally the Oppung king huta (People of custom) disappeared along with the loss of black smoke that clumped.

At that time also the residents drove Binsar Batara from the settlement and from a distance Binsar Batara looked at his mother who was crying roaring because of the departure of her son who was expelled.
