When he first strayed and entered the magical village of Mount Slamet, Awe was greeted by two local houses facing each other. When Awe greeted the women who were winnowing rice, they just looked and didn't answer Awe's greeting.
As Awe continued walking for one hour to find his way home, he came across a market. Awe tried to ask the residents in the market where the basecamp was but no one answered.
Until there was a man wore a farmer's suit who was then called Awe as Mr. Rawuh. He hinted at Awe and told him to walk straight. It takes about an hour from the market location.
But after walking for hours, Awe is still circling from the two houses with mothers winnowing rice to the market. Awe circled in the magical village up to 3 times. After Awe felt scared and tired, Awe asked Mr. Rawuh.
"I want to go home. My friend is waiting for me," Awe said.
"Oh, if you want to go home, you should turn right at the fork instead of turning left," Mr. Rawuh said.
Long story short, Awe stayed up to three days in the magical village and managed to get out, delivered by the figure of Mr. Rawuh.
