Derived from the urine of Bima

With his tall and big body, Werkudara was the one who managed to defeat the giant using his ultimate weapon, the rujakpala mace. After successfully defeating Bakasura, in the stream made of Bima's urine, the sound of water gurgling was heard.

It turned out that when Bima saw her, Dewi Draupadi was washing clothes. Bima alias Werkudara was immediately fascinated and said "Sira ayu" which means "You are beautiful."

Dewi Draupadi, who was shocked to hear Bima's words, intended to leave immediately. But because she was nervous, Dewi Draupadi fell into the river.

It is said that Bima was too late to save Dewi Draupadi, so he could not save his soul. Such is the legend of the Serayu River that has developed in the people of Banjarnegara Regency and its surroundings. (*)
