Lembusura - (Patih) - Mahabharata
Because of his bravery, he was appointed Patih of Gowa Kiskenda State under the rule of Prabu Maesasura, a buffalo-headed giant. Prabu Maesasura instructed Lembusura to go to Suralaya to propose to Dewi Tara, the daughter of Sanghyang Indra and Dewi Wiyati. He traveled accompanied by Diradasura. When his proposal was rejected by Bathara Guru, Lembusura and Diradasura, with the authority of his king, went on a raid in Suralaya and succeeded in defeating the Gods. Bathara Guru then instructed Bathara Narada to go to Arcapada and seek the help of Sugriwa who was then meditating in the forest of Sunyapringga. In a battle at Mrepatkepanasan (the name of a field in Suralaya), Lambusura and Diradasura were eventually killed by Sugriwa.
