Long ago, there lived a humble young man named Lalihote in a remote
village of ancient Gorontalo. One night, Lahilote who lived near a water
spring which was the upper stream of a river and made a living by collecting
rattan in a nearby forest dream that was given a piece of such big rattan
called Hutiya Mala. The young man sprang up from his sleep upon the
surprising dream. A few days later on his way to the forest, Laholote
chanced to glance down the river and see a group of seven beautiful fairies
who were bathing joyfully. The seven beauties left their selendangs , the
magic scarves they used as the wings, on the river-bank. Greed soon lured
Lahilote to steal and hide one of the selendangs. As they were aware of the
presence of Laholote, the fairies soon stopped bathing and go out of water
and fetched their selendangs. They all flew to the heaven leaving the poor
one who cried and sobbed desperately because she could not find her
selendangs. Lahitole approached and comforted her, then brought her
some proposed her to be his wife. The beautiful accepted his proposal and
soon they married. One day, lahitole told his wife that he had go to the
forest to collect rattan. His wife insisted to accompany him but he did not
let her go with him. To keep herself if busy Lahitole s wife wondered over
the house amd by chance she found her lost selendang kept very carefully
in a bamboo tube. She felt very happy but at the same time very
disappointed to know her husbands unfairness. She soon wear the
selendang and flew away to the heaven leave her husband behind. Lahilote
got home happily because at that time he succeeded in collecting a great
deal of rattan. But soon he got very much disappointed to know that his
wife had flown away and the bamboo tube where he had kept the
selendang was empty. At that very difficult moment, suddenly came a wise
Polahi (a certain tribe living in the forest) man who gave him a piece of
magic rattan. He told Lahitole that the rattan could bring him to the
heaven. Eventually, Lahilote succeeded to fly to the heaven and meet his
beloved wife. Lahitole was allowed to stay in the heaven. After some time,
when his wife was looking for lice Lahilotes head, she happened to see
some garying hairs among his. Soon she sprang up and got away from her
startled husband. She told him that no one with graying hair is allowed to
stay in heaven. Upon his questions, she told her husband: Love fades away
when you get a graying because here in heaven you are no more than a
shadow as soon as you get a piece of graying hair. Broken-heartedly,
Lahilote got down from the heaven making use of a piece of board. He
swore: From this point of Pohe beach up to the border of the shroud to
cover my dead body, my left foot-print will be printed forever. At the
moment we can find a stone in the beach of Pohe, in the Province of
Gorontalo with a foot-print stamped on it. The locals believe that is the
foot-print of Lahilote.
