Once upon a time, Arya Penangsang, Duke of Jipang Panola was thinking about the condition of his northern region.
He then made a trip to inspect his area of power and was accompanied by the prime minister Metaun.
He arrived at a place where lots of fresh grass grew and he saw a black horse with smooth legs running towards him.
Strangely, the horse immediately became tame in front of Arya Penangsang.
Arya Penangsang felt attracted to the horse and intended to own it.
To find the horse's owner, Arya Penangsang walked east.
Finally, he arrived at the place where Riman had previously fought.
Seeing Arya Penangsang riding the horse he met earlier, Soreng Pati, Riman's father was angry and thought he had stolen Riman's horse.
Then Soreng Pati and his gang intended to harm Arya Penangsang.
However, their strength suddenly disappeared as their bodies fell down as if there was a supernatural force forcing them to sit down in respect.
They remained sitting with their eyes staring intently at Arya Penangsang.
Then, Arya Penangsang asked them if they knew who the owner of the black horse he was riding was. They answered in unison, "Riman."
