Once upon a time, the ability of trees to bear flowers was assigned by the gods and goddesses. Some of the trees who were given this ability were calachuchi, adelfa, mango, etc. Ylang-Ylang was not among those given this gift.

Once upon a time, there was a couple who had been blessed with a beautiful baby girl. They named their child Amba.

Weaving was the main livelihood of the couple. They make beautiful and intricate designs of cloths. The couple both came from a family of great weavers. It didn’t come as a surprise that Amba was taught how to weave and she excelled in it.

This is the story how two lovers from two warring families fought for their love and right to be together.

When the world was young, in a faraway town, there were two families who were fighting for the right to govern the people. Both families were rich and powerful, which is why nobody would back down in the struggle to claim power over the town. These were the tribes of Datu Dinaganda and Datu Manoo.

Once upon a time, there lived a couple who had been blessed with twelve sons. The family was not wealthy but the parents loved all of their boys and tried hard to provide for them.

The father was especially proud that he had a dozen sons. He would tell his friends that he would have a lot of help in tilling their farmland. But to his dismay, his boys were lazy and carefree. They did absolutely nothing but play the whole day.

A goose may bear a striking resemblance to a duck except for one thing – they have longer necks. But that wasn't always the case, the geese used to look like the ducks and their necks were also small. Do you want to know why the goose’s neck became longer?

Once there was a goose couple who was newly wed. The couple decided to put their nest near the riverbank so that once their goslings hatched from their eggs, they could teach them right then and there. It sounds convenient right? After all, they’d be spending most of their lives in the riverbanks so they’d better learn to swim or wade as quickly as they can!

Back in the ancient days, there was once a good and generous couple who were loved dearly by their neighbors. The neighbors loved them since they helped all of them whenever they could. Everybody was fond of them because of their giving nature and the goddess of the sun was very pleased with their work.

A long time ago, when the world was still young and the gods and goddesses roamed amongst mortal men and women, one of the more renowned gods was King Sun.

King Sun was well known not only because he was a very powerful ruler but also because of his beautiful daughter, Sunshine. Many mortals from all over the world would come and pay tribute to the king, just so they could bask in the light of beauty emanated by Sunshine. All of them wanted to ask for his daughter’s hand in marriage and yet the king was very fastidious. He wanted his daughter to marry the son of a fellow god or a mortal of noble blood. The king was never satisfied.

A long time ago, there once was a damsel who was well known because of her exceptional beauty. Her name was Dahlia.

Her beauty was renowned in all the towns, barrios and even far beyond the shores of the Philippines. Her eyes captured the gaze of many admirers whenever they saw her. Her long flowing black hair, blood red lips and fair skin has made many a young man swoon and desire her even just in their dreams.

Noong unang panahon, noong bata pa si Araw at noong mga panahong si Bathala mismo ay yumayapak pa sa mundo ng mga mortal, ang tao ay sadyang pagala gala lamang. Kasama ang kanyang kabiyak nilibot nila ang kalupaan upang pumitas ng mga prutas at mga gulay para sa kanilang kakainin.

Noong unang panahon, may isang bayan na biniyayaan sa likas na yaman. Sa bayang ito, ang mga pananim ay matataba at hitik sa bunga. Ang kanilang mga gubat ay puno ng mga mababangis na hayop at iba’t ibang klase ng punong kahoy. Ang mga alagang hayop ay matataba at malulusog. Maging ang kanilang mga ilog at batis ay hitik sa mga isda na puwedeng makain. Napakaganda ng lugar at masasabi ng sinumang makakita sa bayang ito na sadya ngang pinagpala ang lugar.
