The Timawa's Daughter : A Tale of Power and Legacy chapter 27
(Hara Dayang's pov) Two months had passed since Raja Lontok's passing, and yet, it still felt like a dream. I would wake up every morning, hoping that it was all just a nightmare, that he would be lying beside me, smiling and warm. But it wasn't a dream. The pain and emptiness were real, and I had to face them every day. Despite my grief, the kingdom was still thriving. The trades were good, the alliances were strong, and the people were content. Raja Lontok had left a legacy of stability and prosperity, and I was determined to build on that. As I sat on the throne, I felt the weight of responsibility on my shoulders. I was now the ruler of not one, but two kingdoms. I had to ensure that both kingdoms continued to prosper, that the people were happy and safe. It was a daunting task, but I was determined to rise to the challenge. I spent every waking moment attending to the affairs of the kingdom, making decisions, and meeting with advisors. I was determined to prove myself as a ca

dayang kalangitan's pov) I stood frozen, my eyes fixed on Raja Lontok's lifeless body. I couldn't believe what I was seeing. My mind refused to accept the reality of the situation. I felt like I was in a nightmare, and I would wake up soon. But as I gazed at Raja Lontok's peaceful face, I knew that it was no dream. He was really gone. My husband, my partner, my Raja. The man who had loved me with all his heart, who had stood by me through thick and thin. The man who had made me feel like a real queen. I felt a wave of grief wash over me, and I collapsed onto the bed beside him. I wrapped my arms around his lifeless body, holding him close as if I could bring him back to life. I buried my face in his chest, tears streaming down my face. "Lontok, no," I whispered, my voice shaking with sobs. "Don't leave me. Please don't leave me." But it was too late. Raja Lontok was gone, and I was left alone to face the darkness that had taken him from me. I held him close, feeling his warmth sl

(Hara Dayang pov) As the weeks passed, Raja Lontok's health continued to decline. He grew weaker and weaker, until he was unable to move his own body. I stayed by his side, talking to him even when he was sleeping. I told him about my day, about the kingdom's affairs, and about my fears and hopes. I knew he couldn't respond, but I believed that somehow, someway, he could hear me. At night, I would sneak away to the west bay, where I would dance for the anitos. I would cry out to them, pleading for mercy and healing for my beloved husband. I would dance for hours, my feet bare and my hair flowing in the wind. I would call out to the spirits, asking them to spare Raja Lontok's life, to give him strength and vitality. "Anitos, please," I would cry, my voice echoing across the water. "Have mercy on us. Heal my husband, give him back his strength and his vitality. I will do anything, just please don't take him from me." As I danced, I felt a sense of desperation wash over me. I was wil

(Dayang pov) I sought out the wisdom of the babaylan, hoping that she could guide me in healing my ailing husband, Raja Lontok. The babaylan's eyes seemed to see right through me, as if she knew the turmoil that was brewing inside my heart. "What can I do, Babaylan?" I asked, desperation creeping into my voice. "My husband's health is declining, and I fear for his life." The babaylan nodded. "The anito can be merciful, but they require devotion and offerings. Dance for them, Dayang Kalangitan, and offer them gifts. Pray to them with a pure heart, and they may grant your wish." She instructed me to perform the ritual under the cover of night, near the west bay, where the moon's light would cast a silver glow on the waves. I need to dance, to let go of my worries and fears, and to plead with the anito for mercy. As the night fell, I made my way to the west bay, my heart heavy with emotion. I lit incense and offered food and drink to the anito, and then I began to dance. The music w

( Hara Dayang pov) I smiled as I received the reports from my emissaries. The alipins were thriving, their newfound freedom bringing a sense of joy and contentment to their lives. I had sent them to check on the alipins and timawas working and trading in the market, and their words filled me with happiness. "Your Majesty, the alipins are doing well," one of them said. "They're working with renewed purpose, and their faces are filled with hope. The market is bustling with activity, and trade is flourishing." I nodded, feeling a sense of satisfaction. My decision to elevate the alipins' status to aliping sagigilid had been the right one. They were finally free to live their lives as they saw fit, and it showed in their demeanor. But today, I had more pressing matters to attend to. The Tambobong leader had finally agreed to our conditions, and we were set to formalize the annexation of Tambobong as one of Tondo's districts. I turned to Raja Lontok, who stood beside me. "It's ti

(third person's pov) The sun rose over the horizon, casting a golden glow over the battlefield. The Tambobong army, a sea of steel and shields, advanced towards the Kingdom of Tondo. Raja Lontok and Hara Dayang Kalangitan stood atop the city walls, their eyes scanning the enemy lines. "They're more numerous than we expected," Hara Dayang Kalangitan said, her voice steady. Raja Lontok nodded. "But we've prepared for this. Our strategy will prevail." As the Tambobong army approached, the Tondo warriors launched a barrage of arrows and stones. The enemy shields deflected most of the projectiles, but some found their mark, striking down Tambobong soldiers. Raja Lontok and Hara Dayang Kalangitan descended to the battlefield, their warriors parting to let them through. They rode into the fray, their swords flashing in the sunlight. Hara Dayang Kalangitan charged forward, her sword slicing through the enemy ranks. "For Tondo!" she cried, her voice carrying above the din of battle. Raj
