Other mountains are Ngungun, Beerburrum, and Coochin who are not mentioned in the legend.<o:p></o:p></span></div><div style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><br />
</span></div><div style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">One day Tibrogargan gazed out at sea and sensed a rising of the waters. He knew there was going to be a flood and became worried for Beerwah his pregnant wife, for she would not be able to reach safety without help.</span></div><div style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><br />
</span></div><div style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">Tibrogargan looked for help from his eldest son Coonowrin, and asked him to take Beerwah to safety while he gathered all of his other children.</span></div><div style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><br />
</span></div><div style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">Tibrogargan went to check on how Beerwah was doing, but was disappointed to find Beerwah along, and Coonowrin running off in the distance.</span></div><div style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><br />
</span></div><div style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">This made Tibrogargan very angry and he took of with is nulla nulla(an aboriginal war club) at hand. Then with a swift movement he cracked Coonowrin over the head and dislocated his neck (which has never been straight since).</span></div><div style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><br />
</span></div><div style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">Once the floods had stopped the family returned. All the children teased Coonowrin about his crooked neck, he felt so ashamed.</span></div><div style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><br />
</span></div><div style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">Coonowrin asked for forgiveness from Tibrogargan, but he was not permitted to in their tribe.

</span></div><div style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">Tibrogargan called upon Coonowrin and demanded to know why Coonowrin had deserted his mother?
