Deep in the rainforests there was a fire, a fire that never went out…. One day Kambaru, a poor boy in Kocan went in the rainforest. He got lost and found himself deep in the rainforest. The sun disappeared and the night sky appeared. In the far distance the boy saw light, the light of the fire. As he came closer he saw the out line of a figure when he was close enough to see, the figure turned and an ugly old womans face appeared. The boy was never seen again.
