Strength Outside The Keraton Wall

Ki Jagad Anila and Ki Jagad Dahana

Pada hari yang sudah ditentukan dan dipilih, akhirnya Lintang Rahina dan Sekar Ayu Ningrum melangsungkan pernikahan dan mengadakan pesta walaupun dengan sangat sederhana, sekedar untuk menjamu para warga kampung sekitar tempat tinggal Ki Ageng Arisboyo.

The marriage was forced not to be attended by friends of their grandfather's friends or figures of the martial world. Because they are time-hunting.

But, however simple the state of their wedding party, still provide an atmosphere of joy and happiness, especially for Lintang Rahina and Sekar Ayu Ningrum.

Five days after her wedding day, Lintang Rahina started packing, as she had to get to Merapi crater.

The latitude of Rahina to Merapi crater is accompanied by Sekar Ayu Ningrum and Ki Penahun. Ki Ageng Arisboyo stayed at Parangtritis. Because there are other duties related to the Duchy of Mataram.

Ki Pradah itself has been since one day after the wedding day Lintang Rahina and Sekar Ayu Ningrum, in the morning before leaving for the crater of Merapi, but not directly to the crater of Merapi, but to the Menoreh Mountains first, to visit his old friend and take him to the crater of Merapi.

Right at noon, when the sun is directly overhead and is hot, Ki Pradah reaches the highest peak in the Menoreh mountains.

Ki Pradah deliberately stopped at the highest peak. For a moment, Ki Pradah looked around the place.

Then, while standing with his legs slightly open, Ki Pradah expended his energy and directed in all directions, and repeated it up to three times.

Suddenly a huge wave of energy spread out in all directions. After that, Ki Pradah fell silent while closing his eyes. A little smile on her lips.

Ki Pradah could feel, the surrounding nature which was initially calm, slowly felt the coming of wind.

The wind was slow and very soothing. Who was only able to move the ends of her hair that had whitened everything.

The longer, the wind was getting bigger, the stronger, to the point of making all the ends of his clothes flutter.

Suddenly the direction of the wind was twisting and turning around around Ki Pradah standing.

Sensing that, Ki Pradah opened his eyes and his right hand was pulled to the front of his chest with his palm tightly opened towards the side.

Then there was the sound of bad luck from the wind from his right side, from above, from the left and continue to move in direction. Ki Pradah made movements like people fending off and dodging.

Plaakk ! Plaakk ! Plaakk !

In either direction Ki Pradah made a deflecting motion, sounding like the impact of two palms or feet.

Amidst the roar of the wind that spins it, suddenly Ki Pradah shot up and using his wooden stick, Ki Pradah did a gagging movement in a direction.

Plaakk ! plaaakk !

Plaaannggg !!!

After the impact sound of an object, Ki Pradah's body bounced back several steps.

"Jagad the God of Bathara ! He he he he ... great great great great, ... getting faster."

A moment after the sound of that voice came, arrived in front of Ki Pradah standing a tall thin grandfather who looked very old. His wrinkled skin is blackish brown. His white robes, as well as his hair, mustache and beard had all whitened. His right hand held a wooden stick. Around his neck were strands of brown wood tasbih balls.

"Ki Jagad Anila, .. sorry if my arrival has disturbed your peace," said Ki Pradah while holding his wand back as a body support.

"He he he .... Ki Pradah, ... long time no see, do not be too shy," replied KI Jagad Anila.

While still the same young and equally serving in the Majapahit Kingdom, Ki Jagad Anila was once a brahmin who also pursued martial arts. He was so good at using wind energy that he earned the nickname Jagad Anila until now.

Ki Jagad Anila lives in the Menoreh Mountains. But, exactly where no one knows. His classmate Ki Pradah also did not know. So if you meet like that, Ki Pradah enough to expend energy, and later Ki Jagad Anila will appear after feeling there is an energy vibration around the Menoreh Mountains.

His movement that was as fast as the wind was also what made Ki Jagad Anila could not be followed to find her place to live.

Ki Pradah whose science of lightening his body is difficult to find his match has never been able to find his home.

There are reports of birds circulating among martial arts experts who know or have met Ki Jagad Anila, if the residence of Ki Jagad Anila is on the wind. But again no one has found him.

Then Ki Jagad Anila took Ki Pradah to the flat land at the highest peak of the Menoreh Mountains called Ara Ara Suralaya. At that place they both chatted for quite a long time.

"Ki, actually, I also intend to meet Ki Jagad Dahana. Where can I meet him ?" ask Ki Pradah.

"If Ki Pradah wishes to be able to meet with the brother of Jagad Dahana, let me take it to Sumbing," replied Ki Jagad Anila, "Because no one knows, where exactly is the residence of the brother of Jagad Dahana."

"You two sisters are always acting mysterious. Even the bed to sleep in was hidden !" ki Pradah said with a smile, "But that's it, it's up to you. When will Ki Jagad Anila be able to deliver me ?"

"Tomorrow morning we go to Sumbing to meet the leg of Jagad Dahana," said Ki Jagad anila.

Ki Jagad Dahana is the older brother of Ki Jagad Anila. If Ki Jagad Anila is an expert in using wind energy, Ki Jagad Dahana is an expert in using fire energy.

The next day, early in the morning, before sunrise, Ki Pradah accompanied by Ki Jagad Anila shot towards the northwest.

It only took half a day, Ki Pradah and Ki Jagad Anila arrived at the foot of Sumbing mountain.

They are both deliberately looking for a place that is quite flat and spacious, to rest and wait for the emergence of Ki Jagad Dahana.

After some time later, Ki Pradah expended his energy and spread it in all directions.

A few moments later, the air became very hot. Then followed by the sound of a very loud laughter.

"Ha ha ha ha .... turns out old friends who have not met for a long time," came the voice of an old man.

Arriving in front of Ki Pradah and Ki Jagad Anila has stood a figure that is not too different from Ki Jagad Anila.

It was Ki Jagad Dahana. Its stature and fashion is similar to Ki Jagad Anila.

The difference is, Ki Jagad Dahana does not hold a weapon, because indeed the science controlled by Ki Jagad Dahana, namely the use of fire energy, does not require weapons.

However, if observed more carefully, in the entire body Ki Jagad Dahana billowing smoke thin from all over the surface of his skin.
