The Blue Swordsman

Good News

Atmik Nadira carrying Rajendra on his head across Lake Tirtanara, shortly before touching the edge of Lake Rajendra can be seen standing and holding one of the horns on Nadira's head. Rajendra then jumped lightly and made it to the edge without touching the water. Nadira who knew their plan had succeeded then dived into the lake and disappeared.

Rajendra is greeted directly by Ranu who runs and hugs her while shedding tears.

"Teacher.I never thought I'd see a teacher again.." Ranu said while drowning his face into his teacher's body.

"I'm back, stop your crying" Rajendra said as he stroked Ranu's hair. He did not expect if Ranu to be worried about it, but after thinking it was only natural considering Ranu had no one else but himself. Rajendra also understood Ranu's attitude which he had thought was too excessive.

People still look amazed looking at the two people, in their minds each filled with a curious and curious figure who just crossed the lake with a giant snake. The village chief was finally seen starting to come and approach them,

"I am Badra the head of this village, what is the name of the lord? and if you don't mind can you tell me what just happened?" Asked the village chief to introduce himself, he also asked something that might be the question of everyone currently on the edge of the lake.

"My name is Rajendra, the teacher of this child, sorry if maybe he has done something that caused panic in the village" Rajendra replied, seeing the large number of people who are currently gathered in this place Rajendra is sure if it was caused by his student.

"Well, it doesn't matter that he didn't do anything wrong, we were amazed by his bravery, and is it true that the lord of the island of Canala? And what have you done?" Badra asked again to change the question, apparently to make sure the answer obtained was enough to close the curiosity of himself and others who were very curious to know the truth of what they saw. For without the information of the person who is currently standing before them, there is no logical answer that they could have received to explain something they saw with their own eyes.

"Of course I'll explain everything" Rajendra said as he swept his gaze at the people watching him.

Rajendra later recounted that if he was from Canala island, he said that now the island is safe to visit. He also made people believe in his words by saying that he had succeeded in conquering the Canala islanders. And the giant snake that had brought him across the lake was the figure of the island guard, and at the end of his explanation he revealed that Canala Island is very beautiful and fertile. It was too bad to leave the island uninhabited, he was also willing to drive people to go to the island to ascertain the truth of the story.

After hearing Rajendra's story, the men are seen whispering to each other. It seems that doubt still covers their hearts a little, but seeing the events they just saw it is hard not to believe the story of Rajendra.

"Is it true that the island can be reached" asked Badra just to make sure.

"Yes I can guarantee that, if you want please bring some boats and I will deliver you" Rajendra replied with a smile.

"Well please take us there, those people who were going to take Ranu to look for you on the island of Canala" Badra said, pointing at the people beside the boat.

Rajendra looked in the direction appointed by the village chief, feeling that if the people had good intentions to help his students he should be grateful,

"Thank you for helping my students, let's go to the island now" Rajendra told the people.

The group of 8 people finally left for the island of Canala with two boats. Ranu of course participated in one of the boats, there is no reason that can prohibit him to come with his teacher. One boat is filled by Rajendra, Ranu, Badra and one resident and the other boat is filled by people who intend to help Ranu before. The journey across the lake Tirtanara was taken quite quickly, because now they have landed the boat right on the island of Canala.

Darya and the people who took part in the trip were amazed by what they saw on the island. The trees grow lushly, their high and large size indicates the age of the trees that are old. During this time they could only see the island of Canala from a distance, and now they were aware of the natural wealth stored on the island.

"Other residents should see this" Badra said to some.

"Yes sir, now the people who like farming can think of opening up land on this island" said one of the residents.

During this time the farmers in the village grigis have to open the land far from the edge of the lake, because the soil is sandy and less fertile. The place is a bit far above the hills, but the problem that must be faced is the land they choose far from the water source. So it takes extra energy to water and irrigate their farmland. But on this island they can see if the land is very fertile, even land that borders directly with the lake water. Of course, it will make it easier for farmers to find a source of water to use.

After being satisfied to see the situation around the island they immediately went home, the village head and the others were impatient to convey what they saw to the residents. Moreover, Badra had been quite concerned with the complaints of some farmers in his village, and now he had found a solution to the problems they faced. Imagining the excitement of the residents hearing what will be said, making Badra smile all the way home.

The time to return to the village was as if it was taken shorter than leaving. Maybe because of the difference in feelings they bring, when they go home their feelings are filled with happiness and enthusiasm. Residents immediately welcomed the arrival of those who had been waiting for the news brought by the group. Happy faces were seen from the residents as Badra delivered what he saw on the island of Canala. He also hopes if soon the people who are interested in farming to get to the island. But he also delivered an important message, too,

"You can open land on the island but remember you also have to keep the preservation of the forest there, do not arbitrarily cut down trees, if that you do then the island's guard will be angry" Badra's speech at the end of the story was a message Rajendra had left him.

Rajendra who has opened the door to the island of Canala certainly feels responsible for the sustainability of the forest on the island. He did want the island to be inhabited but he also hoped that the forest there would not be destroyed. At least only part of the island is inhabited and still leaves the forest that characterizes the island of Canala. Satisfied at the message he sent Badra, Rajendra invited Ranu to go home to the cave, leaving a crowd of people who were drowning in happiness.
