The story of Debus, I have a story of a unique figure about the Aceh tradition. His name is Tgk Daod.
In the village where I was born, the figure is very well known as the first class Debus player. Where there is a performance of Uroh Rapai, there must be Tgk Daod.
Debus Aceh can not be played with himself, each action Debus must be accompanied by a suffix of Uroh Rapai. This is not a myth, there was once an incident, Debus players were injured in his body because of the translucent blade.
The rule, each Debus player stabbed his body must be in rhythm with Rapai. In addition, Debus players also have immune sciences.
But sometime, the excitement happened in a Rapai event. When the Rapai is stopped. Tgk Daod and her son are still dancing with a sharp blade of his hand.
Then, the knife was hued into the thighs and stomach, all the spectators screaming hysterically. All fear of guessing the stomach and thighs of Tgk Daod will be hurt. The fact is not, Tgk Daod and his son just smiled.
I still remember the moment, passing away Tgk Daod had shouted "I don't believe the voice of Rapai can make my body immune, only God who can make someone hurt. "
Everyone was quietly listening to the sentence, none of the spectators were angry with the man. Until the figure of Tgk Daod is known as an immune Debus dancer without Rapai.
It's a story when I was small. Just a memory and I write to keep in thought.
