Legend of the Chocolate Hills

Ever wonder how the Chocolate Hills of Carmen, Bohol came to be? Let's skip the science behind it and just go back to the distant past when fairies, ogres and giants used to roam around with mortal beings.

The legend revolves around the ill-fated love story of Arugo, the gentle giant and Aluya, the beautiful mortal. 

It was love at first sight for the gentle, mild-mannered & very shy giant.

Arugo was so smitten with the charms of Aluya that he couldn't take his mind off her which led him to stalk, observe and admire her from a distance. 

Later on, he made his presence felt by offering her the bounty of food such as root crops, fruits and vegetables to show his affection and admiration for her. 

Finally, he mustered enough courage to talk to her and reveal his feelings for her.

Alas, Aluya despite having some feelings for him, hesitated and ultimately, didn't accept his proposal and she ran away from him and never to be seen again. 

The rejection was devastating for Arugo. He was so heartbroken and inconsolable that he couldn't help but cry and cry for days and nights while he searched near & far for his one true love. 

Finally, the gods and deities took pity on him so they cast a spell and the tears that fell on the flatlands soon turned into mounds and became what is now known as the Chocolate Hills.
