[[Osdol|Osdol's]] version is a highly mythologized version which is part of the Stron Ydoh Rol (Song of the Edge of the World). He talks about how Sopoh and his right hand Bonten led their people to Gaajmas, which is "the Seat of Mankind", and established what is a "paradise and home to any person, the true [[Xaewoon|Mamkoon]]".

The song then goes on to talk about the great structures that Sopoh and Bonten had build and how Sopoh left to die on Gaajmas, "to pass on his powers to the Seat of Mankind and to infuse it with his personality".

He talks about how Sopoh justified his rule by being the first to reach Ydoh Rol, same as in the myths, but that as soon as they arrived, they realized that they were far from first. In fact, there were many villages where the people known as [[Meledesians]] lived. Porteek speculates that Meledesians must have reached Ydoh Rol as early as a century earlier, basing it on the level of their integration with the environment and established routes and settlements.

At the same time, Sopoh's party was not the only one and [[Bonten]] is described as a member of another group which was led by a woman named [[Doroh Hun]]. Both groups were fiercely competing and had previously clashed, as both were planning to use the achievement as claim to power. When it was discovered that the area was already populated, Sopoh approached Doroh and suggested to merge their groups and claim the land from Meledesians, who lived in small groups and could be attacked village by village. Porteek reports that Doroh seemed to have rejected the proposal, although her reasoning was not specified in Porteek's sources and he writes that he is not interested in speculating. Bonten, on the other hand, realized that Sopoh's plan was the only one that was capable of bringing them glory and he murdered Doroh, by pushing her off a cliff. He probably had enough support among the group to kill Doroh, as he as then able to take the lead and march to Sopoh's camp, where both groups were merged under Sopoh's lead, while Bonten became second-in-command.

Porteek then describes a bloody campaign that saw the merciless slaughter of Meledesians. Several months later Sopoh claimed that he reached Ydoh Rol first and the settlement of [[Peelee]] was founded near Gaajmas.
