Hi Alan,

You are right for Leyak /Leak is a normal appears human during day time, In Lombok is a bad thing if people know some one is a leyak, she/he will be isolate from being human interaction, so thats why a figure on Balu Mekebun doesn't want others know who was that by covering it's face.

leyak is also changes their self to what they want, usually as the animal, monkey, pig, dog, or human with very bad dirty face and hair. They can fly also with the light on come from their body.

For other questions when and who named balu mekebun, unfortunately i can't answer that, because no authentic literature of Bali/Lombok legend or story. But you can ask keris folks in Lombok.
