But eventually, the hero was saved, for his benefit.
Invoked by Babaylans, single women, and those in love potions,

Stories of men seduced by a naked female, or a lady in white,
Wives worried, husbands are gone, a revenge on humanity, a fright.

Her beauty, her curse, her love, and she bewitch.
Her tales still continue to this day,
A story of power, love, and revenge, in a unique way
