PRINCESS TANDAMPALIK

King of Luwu had a very beautiful daughter named Princess Tandampalik. Everybody knew about her beauty, including King of Bone, a far away kingdom from Luwu Kingdom.

Then King of Bone visited Luwu in order to propose Princess Tandampalik to be his daughter-in-law. King of Luwu actually did not want to accept the proposal. However, he knew that if he refused it, his kingdom would be in danger. Then, King of Luwu said that he needed time to decide. King of Bone understood and went home.

One day, a bad thing happened. Princess Tandampalik was ill. She got skin rash. The kingdom healer said that the disease could infect others. The King then decided to put the princess in a safe place. It was on a remote island named Wajo Island.

Several days after Princess Tandampalik had lived in Wajo Island, a cow came to her. The cow was different from other cows. The skin was albino. The cow used magical power on Princess Tandampalik’s skin. Amazingly, the disease was cured.

In the meantime, Prince of Bone was sailing in the sea, he landed on Wajo Island. He was very surprised to see a very beautiful girl living in such a remote island.

Princess Tandampalik then explained everything. Prince of Bone had heard about her before. He immediately brought Princess Tandampalik and the soldiers back to Luwuk Kingdom.
