Back home, Labaw Donggon’s two wives both delivered sons, Aso Manga and Buyung Baranugon. Only days after their birth, the two sons went to look for their father. They sailed through the realm of eternal darkness, through the region of clouds, and passed through the land of stones to Saragnayan’s home.
Upon the shores, a wave of dark shadows overwhelmed the youths. Aso Manga and Buyung Baranugon shot poisoned arrows that dealt seven wounds with a single shot. They peppered the minions until Saragnayan was the only one left standing. Buyung Baranugon wrestled Saragnayan. Buyung Baranugon won every match, but Saragnayan could not die.
The brothers retreated and asked for Alunsina’s help. Using her divine powers, she learnt that Saragnayan’s life was housed in the body of a boar in a place called Paling Bukid. The two brothers hunted the pig. Once they captured and slaughtered it, they ate its heart, which made Saragnayan mortal.
Saragnayan knew he had become mortal. He spent one last night with his wife, “Goodbye my love,” he said to her one last time. She embraced him with her long, thin arms and lifted her downcast eyes to admire him. He was grotesque and ugly, while she was beautiful, but she knew he loved her with every beat of his ancient heart. As he let her go, her eyes went back down and she did not look the way of the battle and hid herself in their home. She hated Labaw Donggon with all her being, and she would flee from him and his sons if her husband fell in battle.
Saragnayan called upon the powers of night one last time. A cloud of bats hid him from Baranugon, but the child ran through the swarm, locking arms with the once-god. They wrestled once more. Saragnayan pinned Baranugon down, and while they wrestled, Baranugon jabbed poisoned arrows into both of Saragnayan's eyes. This was the lethal blow to Saragnayan.
During this battle, their father hid under a fishnet out of fear. The two brothers could not find him after and assumed he had gone home before them. However, when they arrived home, they realized their father was still missing. After the sons left, Malitong Yawa Sinagmaling Diwata cursed Labaw Donggon with madness and lovesickness. She turned her grief against the man who tore her whole life away from her. She then left to go into exile, and to live in peace and contentment in the forest, tending different animals and helping the lost. (Which is frickin’ awesome, because Labaw Donggon WAS getting greedy with the wives there.)
Labaw Dunggon’s two brothers, Humadapnon and Dumalapdap went to search for him instead. They found Labaw Donggon under the fishnet, who had succumbed to madness. Labaw Donggon's brothers returned him home to his wives. Nagmalitong Yawa's curse that curing his madness was no simple feat for Abyang Ginbitinan and Abyang Diriinin. Everytime he heard Malitong Yawa Sinagmaling Diwata's name, Labaw Donggon would break out into an episode. For a time, he would see her face in the middle of night, muttering her name but only feel the cold touch his flesh. His wives and their healing magic eventually grounded him back into the present, and his former strength was returned.
