This story takes place in Ngcheangel (Kayangel), the northernmost state of Palau about 22 miles from the main island (Babeldaob) and this is a story about how the people of Kayangel took back their island from a man-eating god "Meluadeangel" who used to inhabit their island. When the villagers of Kayangel started to notice that a lot of them have fallen prey to Meluadeangel they got together and decided to leave their village and go in search of somewhere they can live their lives in peace and not have to always be afraid for their life. When the day came for everyone to leave, they decided to leave behind an old woman called Delumumuu because they said that she was old and weak, and unmarried and nobody wanted to the responsibility of being her caretaker and so they left her behind.

 They rode in their "kaberruuch" (large war canoes) until they ended up in Ngchesechang, a hamlet in Arai which is about 51 miles south from their home and they seemed to like it so much that they decided to settle down in Ngchesechang. Having been left behind the old woman felt very heartbroken knowing she couldn't do anything about her unfortunate situation, she went back and she lived on driftwood and resorted to eating raw food again being terrified that if she cooked and Meluadeangel saw smoke he would find her kill and eat her. Then one day luck found her and she became pregnant and gave birth to two sons, day by day with luck the boys just grew and grew every day and soon became of age where they started to wonder why their mother did not let them go into the village to play and why they kept on eating raw uncooked food. With this, their mother began to tell them the story about the man-eating god Meluadeangel, and about the sad day when all the villagers got on their canoes and rode out of the island leaving her to die because they did not want to be bothered by the old weak woman and upon learning about this they felt very sad and sorry for their mother and started plotting to kill Meluadeangel. 

They eventually killed Meluadeangel by heating up rocks and feeding them to him and when they did their mother told them to set adrift Meluadeangel's stomach until it found Obakrusong, Rdechor, and Spis (all Kayangel village chiefs) and to expand if they asked it if it belonged to Meluadeangel. So when it found its way to the dock in Ngchesechang and they figured out where it came from, the villagers knew that the man-eating god had been killed and that it was safe to return home and so they got back in their canoes and rode back to Ngcheangel. But as they were nearing the island they noticed two men standing on the shore and started questioning who they were because they knew that the only person left behind was the old woman Delumumuu. Nearing the dock the older brother spoke up and said to them, "don't come to the dock just stay right there and rest for a little bit and then go look for another place to go because this island belongs to us." 

Upon hearing that the chief who was in charge stood up began to apologize but the brothers wouldn't budge so he then offered that if they let him and the villagers stay that he and his younger brother would gain the chief titles and rule over the island. So the older brother became Obakrusong to rule over Ngerdilong (north) and the younger brother became Rdechor to rule over Ngerdimes (south) and it has stayed that way to this very day.

Thank you for tuning it and I look forward to the next story. Don't forget to let me know if there is any particular story that you would want me to do next. Mahalo!
