Lengkong Pulau is the name of the royal (Bengal) tiger, which was described to me as the
steed of “Raja Jin Peria,” whereas Nibong Hangus was explained as the name of the Black
Leopard and the steed of “Lang Jengkat.” These steeds (!) are said to wait outside the house
when their masters have entered, their spoor being visible next morning! Raja Jin Peria and
Lang Jengkat are said to reside upon the mountain Ambin Anak, together with other spirits
named Mampek, Pilus, Lang Padang, Nibong Alai, and Gelombang Ribut, whereas Penglima
Lenggang Laut lives in the Heart of the Seas (Pusat Tasek). ↑
