Wulan_Dremi

Alternative names: Ulandermi

Terms of address: Batari

Type: God

Origin: Java

Description in the Javanese wayang retellings: Wulan [Drema] and Wulan Dremi are the offspring of Batara [Darma]. They both then decided to incarnate as humans and become lovers. Wulan Dremi incarnates as [Hagnyawati] and Wulan_Drema as Samba. This was either a mistake or a result of a curse since [Hagnyawati] was meant to marry to Bomanarakasura, Samba's brother. They committed adultery and Bomanarakasura became aware of this. He killed Samba, but Kresna brought him back to life. Kresna was privy to the fact of Samba and [Hagnyawati] were incarnations of Wulan_Drema and Wulan Dremi. Eventually, Kresna killed Samba and gave his blessing to the marriage of [Hagnyawati] and Samba.
