Overall Synopsis
Intro:
The main character, (Tipok) after being chased by a wild pig, was lost in the jungle after going hiking alone. By coincidence, he stumbles upon a Bidayuh village. He ran into the first Bidayuh long house he saw to escape from the wild boar.
Background:
He looked around the house. it felt very familiar to him. As he walks around the house, he saw bronze gong (tawak) hanging by the wall and the fire placement in the middle. He saw some people sitting by the fire drinking tuak. One of them waved his hand at Tipok and gestured the empty sit beside him. Tipok joined them.
End:
While they chatting away, happily drinking tuak, a strong wind blew off the fire, and the people disappeared. Tipok was still sitting there with tears. He whispers, “Those were the days…”. He sighs.
