Once upon a time there lived a family of four; father, mother and two children – a male and a female. The father and mother died through illness living behind their two children.
The elder child is a male about thirteen years old and the girl is ten years old. The male took the parents responsibilities of looking after the girl. He goes out fishing in the nearby lagoon bringing home fish and feed his baby sister.
One day he went out fishing leaving his baby sister alone. A strange man came to her. She greeted him with food to continue his journey. The man said “It’s a sad news to tell you”. “What is it”? “She asked”! “Your brother fishing at the lagoon is killed”.
This news sadden her. She ran away down the valley into the jungle. She stay there crying all days into weeks and months. She did not eat or drink. All she did is grief for the loss of her brother.
The brother came home after fishing. He did not see his sister. He start looking everywhere but couldn’t find her. He was profoundly sadden so the brother stay on the mountain alone thinking about her. He cry all day into nights and days rollover to weeks and months.
The brother did not saw her sister from the mountain side while she did not saw him from the valley. Both cry alone all days and nights into weeks and months. The drops of their tears form into pool then into two big lagoons currently sitting in Mongol Valley in Southern Highlands Province.
The lagoon on the mountain looks like an oval shape. From a distance it appears like a shape of a man holding his bow standing.
The lagoon from the valley it looks like a rectangle and from a distance it looks like a woman with her breast hanging down.
The lagoon from the valley, its dressed with ropes hanging down from a big tress (a sign of grass skirt covering her private part, women normally wear in Southern highlands culture) and the lagoon from the Mountain it’s dressed with tanget plants all around it (a tanget plant is normally wear by male, fixed on a bark of a tree that wrapped around the hips where male’s private is covered with laplap).
Through generations pass on, the locals respect the lagoons and take care of them. They call them- the lagoons of brother and sister. To this date, both lagoons are still sitting in its original place in Mogol Valley of Southern Highlands Province.
