“The hero (here a fisherman) unknowingly enters the service of Basa Jaun in danger of being eaten. Alerted by a captured maiden, he goes on his side quest of defeating the dragon (Eren-Sugué, Herensuge, Heren-Suge) because nested inside it is the hare containing the dove containing the two eggs that are the Basa Jaun's soul.”
