Magellan convinced Humabon to convert to Catholicism and to turn Cebu into a colony of the Spanish Empire. In reality, the expedition was a façade for Magellan's attempt to locate a treasure left behind by the Isu. Although he succeed in finding the artifact, Humabon revealed to Magellan that it was only a fragment of a larger artifact.
