The coronation party ended before sunrise. They had fallen asleep covered in sand blown by the wind, bearing the body lying next to it. Enter into the subconscious where they leave the beautiful hope of living a new era that comes.
When the sky started wearing orange clothes, their eyes began to open.
Sakya and Shrie who were asleep next to Karka started to get up and stretch out the stiffened body.
"Where are we going?" shrie asked Sakya.
"We are going outside the Vanaya forest, Jatarupa said that there is a human city in the north" Sakya replied.
Last night Sakya was quite surprised when the humans managed to own a city. Especially because of the distance that can still be reached by the sattva in the Vanaya forest in just a matter of days. The reality is that the city is still standing because the sattva around it thinks humans have no value at all.
As a food source, humans have more bones and fluids than meat, especially as a source of prana, the content of prana that humans have is very small.
They see humans just as humans see ants. No matter how many there are, ants are worthless to be a source of food. Especially if we have other food sources.
"Let's go, I wonder what a human city is like!" shrie said, pulling Sakya's hand.
Shrie lives in a small village besides being trapped in the Vanaya forest for five years. This causes the desire to see other civilizations and humans is very large.
"Ha ha, all right. I'll talk to Jatarupa first" Sakya said. Like Shrie, Sakya is also very curious to see the human city.
Sakya then wakes up Jatarupa and asks, "Why is there no sattva panca praboditha in Vanaya?"
Panca praboditha is the one who has opened up his five chakra points. The fifth chakra is the Visuddhi chakra at the base of the throat.
"Your majesty, there used to be a legend about a sattva named Prathama. He was even a sat praboditha, he was the one who first managed to open the Ajna chakra point,” Jatapura replied then he took a deep breath and continued his story, "One day he disappeared. No one knows if he left or died. Unfortunately, the knowledge to open the chakra points of Visuddhi and Ajna had not been able to convey to his successors. That's why up until now, the sattva race could only achieve praboditha chess, because our knowledge only got there." Jatapura explains at length.
"Listen carefully! Me, my sister and Karka are leaving. I gave you the task of collecting certain flowers and roots. If you've been collected, you can contact me. I will make a pill so that you, Sagara and Bhati can unlock the chakra points of Visuddhi" Sakya said. Then he took out a scroll from the animal skin that contained the name of the flower and the required root.
"Your Majesty, what is it that underlies you to do something like this?" Jatapura asked after receiving the beast skin scroll from Sakya.
"Pralaya's day is coming. I need a strong friend to prevent it. Fight with me when the time comes" Sakya replied.
"G ...Pralaya Day. Your Majesty's wish is an order. I'll find these materials. Even if you have to get outside the Vanaya forest. We're gonna stop Pralaya's day." Jatarupa.
All sattvas already know the legend about the day of Pralaya. The day that all life will end. That day will definitely come just that no one knows when exactly, Jatapura did not expect in the near future. Can we prevent Pralaya Day? Although he doubted, Jatapura would still carry out Sakya's orders, despite the life of the stakes.
"Your highness, how about we take you? The journey will be faster." Jatarupa offers a ride to Sakya.
"no need. I have something to do on the way. You complete the task I gave you immediately. If you need help, you can contact the other rulers. They are my allies" Sakya said. Sakya then gives Jatarupa a magic sign if she needs to communicate with him.
"All right, your highness. I'll go straight to work." Jatapura rushed to gather his new men.
Sakya, Shrie and Karka immediately went north out of the Vanaya forest after everything was ready.
On the way to the city, Sakya does what was planned in advance, which is to teach Shrie how to use her powers. Sakya knows even though Shrie is a tri praboditha, she has absolutely no idea how to use prana. Like a baby given a strong body strength, punches and kicks are almighty. I don't know what can be done with that power.
Against rakshasa that is not praboditha is certainly very easy, but if you fight other praboditha even if only dual praboditha, Shrie will only be a source of refill prana.
During Shrie's teaching, Sakya realizes that Shrie has absolutely no fighting talent. However, Shrie turned out to be quite prominent in mastering magic.
Of course Shrie enjoys learning magic. With magic, he could make the flowers grow quickly and see them blooming. Rain falls especially when she is reminded of her parents and is happy to see the rainbow that comes after her.
Eventually, Sakya decides to focus on developing Shrie's magic abilities alternating with Karka. How to use prana to perform magic.
Today is their fourth day of travel. Two days ago they came out of the Vanaya forest. Now they waded through a vast meadow. Shrie asks permission to clean up when they see a small river. In this place Sakya decides they rest first.
"We're almost in town, it's time we parted temporarily" Sakya told Karka, after Shrie left.
"Why?" Karka asked softly, her face looking sad.
"I asked for your help to do something for me" Sakya said as she stroked Karka's head.
"What's that?" Karka asked back.
A wild sattva is a sattva that does not belong to a group. In the Pangea continent there are still many scattered sattvas, they hunt and live apart from the herd.
"Can't we do it both?" karka Pinta. Her heart felt heavy to part with Sakya.
"I don't think we have much time, while you find sattva, I will prepare the humans to be able to face the day of Pralaya" said Sakya.
Right now, the human race was just a burden in a battle. Their way of thinking and strength was too far behind among the other races. Sakya plans to change it.
"I understand." Karka replied while bowing her head.
Not long after that Shrie returned from the small river. "I'm ready. When do we continue our journey?" tanyakanya.
"We go now,” Sakya replied.
"I'm leaving now too. See you later Sakya .. Shrie ..." said Karka.
"Where are you going? Why leave?" squeak Shrie. Shrie had known Karka for a few days but felt like she had known him for years. Now it was just a blink of an eye that they had to part.
"There's something I have to do on my own. Don't worry, we'll meet again soon. Let me know if anyone hurts you," said Karka, she's laying down so Shrie can hold her.
Shrie finally took off her embrace. He could not persuade Karka anymore. His eyes began to glaze over.
"I smell a human being in the northeast direction. I have to go now. Take good care of yourself. We will meet again soon" said Karka, rising and running directly west.
Sakya and Shrie look at Karka which is getting smaller and eventually disappear on the horizon.
"Let's go. They may know the direction to the city," Sakya tells Shrie. They ran to the northeast.
Not long after Sakya and Shrie manage to cut off the path of the horsemen.The 3 horsemen noticed and started to approach Sakya and Shrie.
"Are you lost?" One of the riders asked Sakya.
"Well, can Bratha help us?" Sakya answered while Shrie quietly stood beside Sakya.
"Certain ... Where are you guys going?" tanyakanya.
"I'm Sakya and this is my sister Shrie. We are from Paraka village to the southeast of Vanaya forest. Can you show us to the nearest town?" Sakya introduced herself.
"I am Nayaka, and they are my comrades, Yamala and Yamaka. They're brothers. We are Lokapatti city security officers, if you want, we will take you to the city" Nayaka bargained.
Nayaka is a young man with an oval-shaped face. His short black hair was neatly combed. Her burning brown skin indicates that she is often in open space.
While Yamala and Yamaka both have round face shapes, their faces are almost similar, only a mole under Yamaka's lips sets them apart. Their hair is curly long shoulder length.
Their clothes are long sleeves, trousers whose length reaches below the knee. Both are made of tanned skin. They wore chest protection vests made of several layers of pangolin skin that were in glue.
"We don't want to be troublesome, Bratha Nayaka can show her direction, the rest we can walk," Sakya said.
"No hassle, you're not the first humans we've found and we're helping. That's our job. Yamaka give your horse to Shrie, you ride with Yamala! And Sakya, you can ride with me. Our journey is far enough ... We will arrive in the afternoon" said Nayaka. Right now, the sun was shining right above them.
Yamaka immediately got off his horse. She helps Shrie ride her horse, then ride the horse with her brother. When they were ready they rode north.
They arrived in the town of Lokapatti in the afternoon. The gate made of 3 meters high wood stood gallantly. 4 Meters tall tree trunks lined up neatly and tightly. This wooden wall that protects the comfort that is in the city from the dangers that are outside.
The wooden walls are semicircular and semi-circular again, formed from natural walls which are semicircular cliffs.
"Welcome to Lokapatti ... Open gate!" Nayaka shouted at the gatekeeper.
‘Dreeeddd’ Sounds of Lokapatti city gate that opens slowly.
Shrie looked very curious, her eyes twinkling, she bit her red lip leaves and clenched her hands. Expect the gate to open quickly and show how human life in the city of Lokapatti.
