[ day of fire - 2 ]

The night before the Nyepi holiday of Indonesian Hindu, they celebrate the night when the Ogoh-ogoh, as representation of the devil were being burned. The following day they aren't allowed to have meal, fun and works.

The Ogoh-ogoh would be carried and shown through the small road of the village. Everytime they meet crossroads, they would dance with it, along with the fire spelling... and they chanted a melody... to beat the devil...
