Princess Rajapatni - Gayatri - 31

Princess Rajapatni - Gayatri - 31

There are not many stories I can tell about the war between Majapahit and Kadiri. All I know is that every twilight, the soldiers will come in turn. They were facing Empu Ragarunting. Then I will be called to the study. Together with some of the disciples we believed, we listened to all the reports.

I felt, back then, we were no different from the blind King Drestarastra27. We can only worry about the day. Then we heard the course of the battle from the mouths of others.

And of course, those soldiers did not have the ability to like Sanjaya—the advisor of King Drestarastra. They do not have the ability to see faraway events. So the reports every afternoon are just numbers. Number of wounded soldiers. Number of soldiers killed.

Prabu Jayakatwang was defeated on keli-ma day. He was arrested and paraded around the city. Unable to bear the humiliation, Bibi Teruk Bali decided to commit suicide. I am sad and hurt. Again, I couldn't see his body one last time.

At that time, Pradnya had been brought to the residence of Raden Wijaya. I heard that their marriage was going on. But I believe Pradnya will be very happy.

27 Mahabharata, father of the Kauravas

However, Pradnya had dreamed of this marriage in his teenage years.

Unexpectedly, the most painful event of jus-tru occurred after the war ended. Lose out. Ike Mese was knocked back. The atmosphere is still not stable.

At that time, two soldiers came to padepokan ka-mi. They had a soldier who was seriously injured.

“Kanda Sakka!” Ratih kontan squandered while whistling her husband's hat. Sakka's smile did not comfort Ratih. I myself saw a great weariness on Sakka's face. Her lips were pale, almost blue. While bebe-rapa parts of his body wrapped in bandages still shed blood.

“I'm happy, you're fine. I just came here to see you.”

“Kanda! Kanda! Don't say such a thing!” isak Ratih's. “You should rest first! You should have recovered yourself! You should have been—”

“Ardaraja still at large.”

I held my breath hearing the news. Just pan-bag Sakka forced himself here. He must be worried about Ratih and his son.

“I want to see my baby.”

Quickly, Anggreni gave the baby to Ratih. Sakka smiled happily at her son.

“Duh, Cah Ganteng.. Finally Father can see you.” Ratih wiped the tears.

“He will be a great knight,” Sakka said as she touched the baby. They both cry.

Just like all of us. The happiness of the family gathering includes this plaza.

“You haven't given him a name?”

“I'm waiting for you to give him a name.” Train to pray while calming the baby. “But later, give him a name when Kanda is completely healed.”

“Tonight, let me take care of your baby.” Without waiting, I offered myself.

“But, Princess ”

“No, Train. All this time, you've been helping me a lot. Now, let me help you.” I took the baby in Ratih's sling. “I'll bring this baby. Please you two take off the miss. Cah Gan-teng, tonight sleep with Aunt, yes.”

I'm laughing a little. Ratih wants to reach for the baby, but Sakka prevents. The face of Ratih at that moment implied gratitude. The husband couple sat. Smile at each other.

It was the most beautiful smile I had ever seen on the faces of Ratih and Sakka.

War over. Husband back.

I thought they would live happily ever after.

Honey, destiny says something else.

No one knows death can be anyone. One of the soldiers who came with Sakka, turned out to be Ardaraja's subordinate. Secretly, there was an evil plan in his heart.

That night, a fire broke out from the cottage. Quickly, the fire spread to where Ni Ambarareka was. Burning the huts and some wishful thinking around it. Curadharma finds the traitorous soldier trying to escape. Not wanting to be interrogated, the soldier chose to swallow the poison.

Grief shrouded the wall for some time. Empu Ragarunting locked himself away all day. The female students wept over the departure of their teacher.

Curadharma looks sadder than usual. Every morning, he brought flowers to the remains of the cottage. He's looking at ashes and debris. Remembering Nari Ratih for a very long time.

Meanwhile, in an instant, the baby had been orphaned. Everyone is starting to feel sorry for the baby. Besides not having a great father, evil still loves him. Ardaraja's grudge is still blazing. If Ardaraja knew there was a descendant of his enemy, he would send another murderer.

Empu Ragarunting thought hard. Saving this baby is not easy. Not to mention, his existence would endanger the disciples of the store.

Finally, Empu Ragarunting secretly brought the baby to the village chief. The village head of Mada is his best friend. So the village chief was very trusted. Empu Raga-runting gave the village chief a lot of money.

He ordered the village chief to guarantee the future of the baby.

After that, we could only hear the news of Sakka's son's flower-tum-buh.

Just like his father's prediction, the Baby did become a great knight later on. There are many stories about this boy. Its origin is now mis-terius. Some say he was a child of God. Some say, he is the son of a disciple of Empu Ragarunting. Some say that he was the son of a god who fell in love with his mother's choke.

Ah, again a story.

And time again opened a new story for us, in the new kingdom, Majapahit Kingdom.
