The magnitude or strength of the influence of Islam in the Majapahit region, even to the center of the kingdom, meant that those who did not agree or did not want to give up the beliefs they had adhered to all this time felt pressured. They then stepped aside and looked for a place that was considered safe and free. Likewise with Begawan Selapawening and his followers. Begawan Selapawening and his followers left the Majapahit Kingdom until they arrived on the south coast of Yogyakarta.
When the Majapahit Kingdom was led by King Brawijaya V, there was an upheaval in the palace. This conflict resulted in King Brawijaya V deciding to exile his empress, namely Princess Campa.

This is a folklore from Yogyakarta. In ancient times, the Gods in heaven placed a mountain in the middle of Java Island. The mountain is named Jamurdipa. The purpose of placing a mountain on the island of Java is none other than to balance the shape of the land on the island. The island of Java turns out to have uneven land, there are highlands, lowlands, valleys, ravines and so on. Initially, Mount Jamurdipa was located in the South Coast area, but the mountain was moved to the border of Sleman, Boyolali, and Klaten Regencies.
According to legend, in ancient times there were two kingdoms as big as neighbors, the Prambanan kingdom and the Pengging kingdom. The Prambanan kingdom was led by King Boko who had a very beautiful daughter named Roro Jonggrang. Meanwhile, the Pengging kingdom was led by the king of Pengging. King Pengging is known to be very hungry for power.
