The history possibility is the exact phrase for baratayuda (a disastrous battle) in the story of Mahabarata centuries ago. Gods power was unable to prevent the battle on Kurusetra field. A similar story happened on the Land of Andalas—refer to Sumatera. The rage of Dewa bayu (God of the Wind)—in form of a whirling wind—was unable to cease Riau, Lampung, and Jambi—becoming the field of baratayuda.
