Prologue
We approached our Grandma, “ Hi Grandma, how are you
to day ? “
“ I am fine, thank you.
I know you ! You want
ask me to tell another story; Do you ? “
“ Precisely, yes we do.
Will you, Grandma ? “
“ I knew, that I never told you again my stories as usual;
Then you have been waiting for me to
tell the story for a long times; Are you
longing my stories ?
But I guessed, every young man likes you, didn’t fond
of hearing the story about your own Country;
Since you didn’t care your own Country, do you ? “
“ No.. No...No! We do love our Country very much, then we want
to know, what have happened long times ago in our own Country ? By hearing your stories, then we would have
become proud about my Country; Beside also, we feel sadness and regret if a
magnate, likes a bad King, had hurt his own people.”
Grandma keeps silent for a while, then said, “ By
then, I also proud over you all; Hoping
you will never hurt your Country and your own community. What I mean by hurt is
to do corruption, deceit and betray as well, against your own Country. That’s very bad acting, that could hurt the people
of yours.”
“ Grandma, listen to me ! Even, I would like to become hero for my people
“ My little brother said, furiously.
“ That’s very good !
Again I want to say, thank you !
Now, please keep silent ! I want to start my story, with title , “Damar
Wulan” Perhaps, you’ve ever heard that
name; A name of a young man, who successfully becoming a good King.”
Grandma

Majapahit ,glorious Majapahit
I
love my Country and respect my Queen
Not
just respected but also more than that,.... love
Love
with true love
Not
because of she was a Queen, but also she was a lovely woman.
Princess
Putri Kencana Wungu. That’s your name
Every
people of Majapahit has same opinion about you
That
you an attractived lady, really.
You
have also the political power in your hand.
Who
would be the lucky guy to be choiced by you ?
As
your partner in future?
Then
he could get double advantages, Love and Power.
Even
he has a chance could become a King,
King of Majapahit Kingdom,
Who
knows?
The Queen has right, to choice her partner
between all of you
But
not you !
You
can’t using your vigour to take her away
Because
A Queen belong to all of her people
Then she
must be regarded.
Chapter
1
She was just twenty years
old; She’s pretty, wise and also smart.
She become the famous Queen
of Majapahit Kingdom.
Princess
Putri Kencana Wungu, who has been innaugurated as a Queen, ruled Majapahit
Kingdom in the year 1427 - 1447. Therefore The Kingdom has a Queen for the second
time; While Queen Tribuwana Tunggadewi was
The First Queen of Majapahit; She was
also Wungu’s Grandma.
In
the begining of Wungu’s ruled, Majapahit had been attacked by enemies; In which
they come from East. The enemy was Prabu
Kebo- Mancruet; King of Blambangan Kingdom.
Prabu came for war attacking, accompanied by full power of his entire armies
to conquer Majapahit. Supposition, they
would have come into Trowulan Palace in next three days . Now they occupied a village at edge of
Singosari Town, ready for combatting.
They erected their tents for getting rest.
Kebo
Mancruet thought concerning The Queen of Majapahit, “ She was just a weak woman
as a leader; Then I would have being eassy to defeat her and her Country. I want to take her home and could making her as
my concubine. Beside my father would
become happy as he wants to revenge
Majapahit ruler’s indignity.”
Kebo
Mancruet despise about Princess Kencana Wungu, aspecially her military power.
The
Queen didn’t prepare her Army yet, because the bad news has come at sudden. She wasn’t in panic emotion, but quiet; She
really a good leader in the crucial moment of a war like that. She ever have experience
with other rebellion before, inwhich it happened at Saden territory; But Patih Gajah Mada was so easy to
eliminate the enemies.
She
command her Patih,
“
Patih ! Attack the enemies ! Destroy them ! Catch their leader ! “
Patih
Lohgender, wasn’t so smart as Patih Gajah Mada, the famous Patih previously.
Patih Lohgender along with Majapahit Army went for ward into battle field. His two sons also accompanied him; They were
Layang Seta and Layang Kumitir.
What
was Kebo Mancruet’s willing by attacking Majapahit; Does he realize that
Majapahit was a Power Kingdom? That any King could able to defeat that Country? Even the majority people of Majapahit think
about Blambangan as a ‘Barbar’ Kingdom.
Kebo
Mancruet weared topee with buffalo’s horn on his head; So did the entire of his
armies. By then the troops were called
‘buffaloes troopers’.
He
command, “ Troops ! Our enemies will
come soon, prepare your self ! “
Not
so long, the two opponent’s armies have been fighting; The sound cling of
swords and sound of soldier’s screaming, going to death was heard every
times. Sound of Kebo’s command also heard every times, to rise
his loyalty’s spirit.
After
two hours pass by, the Majapahit armies retreated; Seems they were on loser
possition. Patih Lohgender and his two
sons run away to Trowulan Palace. His
armies were following him too, with fear to death, depicted in their faces. They thought, “ Buffaloes Army were really
horrible.”
Fortunately,
Blambangan armies did’t run after, because they also have much suffering in the
dreadful of war. Many victims were death,
spreading at yard of battle field; They were soldiers of both sides.
After
the Trowulan Palace’s Gate was closed, then Patih Lohgender faced his Queen to
make reportation of his losing war. Patih
was shameful to make report like this,
“Enemy
more powerfull than that of ours ; Their
amaount were double than that of ours. We
losed; Many victims were among of our soldiers who have been killed by enemy;
The dead bodies were left behind at battle field, that we can’t be able to get back
home. “
“ So
..we losed !... What would be happened then ? “
“
Hoping they would not come into our Palace “
The
Queen screamed; She angry, “ Coward !
You are coward Patih. Shall I
fight ? Shall I, ... as your Queen will fight alone against our
enemies, ... fighting, struggling for you all ? “
Patih
compliant, shamefull; His sweat dropped from his front head.
Queen
Kencana Wungu really angry and disappointed with her Patih as well as the
entire soldiers. Her face become red and
looks angry furiously.
Suddenly,
a stranger comes out from the defeatter mob soldiers. He was a young man with handsome faces and steady-muscles.
He
said, “ Your Majesty ! Please give me a
chance to defeat our enemies. Give me a
chance to lead our Army, once more, for going
into war at battle field. Please
.... please ! “
Seems,
he was not a soldier among of that mob, but just a people of Majapahit; Who
wants to make struggling against enemy; Then he hope would becoming a Hero of
Majapahit.
The
Queen was happy, finding a brave young man like him, who has appeared at sudden
in front of her.
“
Thank you ! Please say your identity ! Who are you ? “
“ My
name is Bambang Menak. I am just a young man, among your own people; I will fight to defend my Country as hard as
I could. Hoping I can be able to win
this war and chase the enemy away, go back to their Country. “
“
Wonderfull ! Sound is good. So ... what your planning is ? “
“ Me
and Patih as well as all the entire of our troops, will fight again in next
three days at the same battle field.”
“ No ! Patih Lohgender and his staffs will not going
into this war again. Please, you along
with your troops will fight, without being assisted by Patih and his
staffs. I knew, Patih will make trouble
on you when you were at battle field.
You are the top leader in our
Army;
Just you !”
“
Wow ! Thank you very much for your credibility
on me ! Of course I agreed with you “
“ OK, from now on; I, Queen
Kecana Wungu, ascertain you as leader of Majapahit Army. If you would have become the winner, then I
will pay on you.
Moreover, I will give you
present; Take my word ! “
The
Queen have to make a decision immediately, because it was very urgent. By then she promised present for Bambang
Menak. What kind of present ? She will make her decision about it, later
on.
Bambang
asked, seems he didn’t believe: “ Really ? Are you serrious, Your Majesty ? “
“
Yes I am ! Remember, that I am your
Queen ! I hate to my people who do not
want to trust on me ! “
“ I trust your word Your
Majesty!
Then I want to ask you; What kind of present
that you want to give me?
......... No ! No! Don’t answer it !
Please ! Don’t you answer my
question, now ! But next ! After I have succesfully
finishing my task; I would have brought
the head of Prabu Kebo Mancruet in front of you.
After that, you could give me
your present on me.
“
Yes I agreed with you “ The Queen smiled.
The
Queen looks pretty when she was smiling;
She’s smilling to every one in Balairung Room; Because she believed that
Bambang Menak would have become the winner in the war.
Bambang
Menak thought in his mind, “ She’s a pretty woman; I fallen in love with
her. Please Goddess ! Give me your way to achieve my goal, that’s The
Queen, who would have become my wife, as
she has promissed me as the present thing! I want to marry her! “
Now
the entire Majapahit soldiers were happy too; They clapped in applaus to
Bambang Menak. Seems their spirit was
rising, then ready for combating.
The
Queen spoke to the Army, “ Hi my soldiers !
The war will be continued now !
Are you ready? Motherland needs
you now ! She needs your sacrifice and my sacrifice too ! Not just you who will fight, but also me too. I will held my sword to kill enemy.
I
and Patih as well as a part of armies will stay in this Palace, to protect This
Palace; As the last military defence of Majapahit Army. While Bambang Menak as your leader, will
fight at the battle field. Hoping you
can get our winning by assisted your leader.
I am not suppose to make
Patih and his sons would have been disapponted, but I just gave chance to Bambang Menak; For him could show
his divine power to win this war.
While Patih and his sons can
rest, after they did their task.”
The
audiences applauded upon the Queen’s spoken, “ VIVA our Queen ! “
Does Bambang Menak has divine power, as the Queen
said ? Seems, The Queen just making an
assumption in this matter. No body knows
about him.
But
in reallity, Bambang has it; Yes he has divine power to crush many enemies. It’s true that he can crush enemies soldiers,
looks like to crush mob of ants. Bambang
Menak was strong young man, who has a Yellow-Bludgeon ( Indonesia : gada wesi
kuning) as his weapon. If he swung his
weapon to enemies, then the victims would have been death immediately.
If
Bambang hold his weapon, then his face would have been changed, becoming
horrible faces, looks like giant. The
sound of his weapon likes Thunder. Many
enemies soldiers fear, by just hearing his weapon.
A
soldier of spy reports to The Queen, “ Your Majesty, the troops of enemy would
have come in front of our Palace in a minute; They were about not so far, walking
in line, going to us.”
Bambang
Menak asks, “ How many them all ? “
“ I
don’t know, but may be five thousand soldiers.
They look like mob of ant. “
Bambang
Menak asked his Queen,
“
Your Majesty, The Majapahit troops will be my command now! May I? “
“
Yes you may ! “
Bambang
Menak gave command,
“ Now, I am your commander in
chief of you all.!
Soldiers ! Go in line ! March
to the Gate ! Ready for going into the war !
Open the gate ! “
Then
The Majapahit Army go for ward into battle.
No time for resting, since enemies was about nearing.
Bambang
shouted, “ For Gloria of Kingdom, Majapahit Kingdom ! Viva Ratu Kencana ! “
The
soldiers answered, “ For Majapahit
Gloria, Viva The Queen Kencana ! “
The
enemies troops were seen at distance not so far. But Prabu Kebo Mancruet can’t be seen among
the Buffaloes troops. Perhaps he was at
the rear of his mob soldiers.
Bambang
Menak was in front of Majapahit Army. He
hold his weapon, the Yellow Bludgeon; He swung it to left and right. Then sound of thunder was heard, furiously;
Making enemies frightened.
When
Bambang Menak was so near to enemies, that he could using his weapon, then he swung the weapon straight to the enemies
soldiers line. Amazing ! Unbelieveable
of the result; Ten and more soldiers of
Buffaloes Army fell down, going to death.
Again he swung it to enemies soldier line, many more death as well. Now, the enemies soldier were frightening.
The
enemy Commander shouts, “ Soldiers !
Retreat ! Retreat ! “
The soldiers
of enemy retreat slowly, and prepare their arch to shoot. Some Majapahit men dead, stabbed by arrows.
One
of Spy soldier shouts to Bambang Menak, “ Sir !
Another Buffaloes armies have broken the rear wall of The Palace. Now then, they can entering for going into The
Palace Yard from behind Palace. Prabu
Kebo Mancruet himself led that ambush.
Now they were fighting against Patih Lohgender and The Queen.
Bambang
surprise and worry, “ The Queen was fighting, .... really ?”
“
Yes ! She was. “
“ Calamitous !
I must help her ! “
Again,
Bambang Menak using his weapon to crush buffaloes armies; To chase the enemies
away. Then, he turned back going into
Trowulan Palace, for helping The Queen.
It was the important task of him
It was a good trick of Kebo
Mancruet, by divided his troops in two. His staff attacked The gate, infront of
Palace; While he led his armies to attacked secretly at the rear of Palace, by
broken the wall.
If Bambang didn’t heard the
important news from his spy, then he would have made run after the enemies, then
he could went far away, left the Queen in dangerous stuation at The Palace.
Therefore,
Majapahit Palace could have been seized
and defeated by enemy.
Next
step, The Queen could be detained by enemy.
Therefore,
The Queen and her Patih must be helped, otherwise Majapahit could be loser.
Bambang
came in crucial time. He shouted to the
Queen, “ You’re Majesty ! Retreat ! I
will fight for you ! “
In
the mean time, Prabu Kebo Mancruet fought against The Queen furiously, to end
the war and detained The Queen immediately.
The Queen almost be lose, since she has been attacking again and again; The blood drip from her left hand.
Bambang
ambushed into battle with Yellow Bludgeon in his hand. He swung his weapon to Prabu Kebo
Mancruet. Prabu throw forcefully into
ground far distance; His dead body flying off ten metter far distances. As well as his troopers also, have
been killed by Bambang’s weapon. .... It’s awful, unbelieveable.....
When
they have seen their leader dead already, buffoloes armies retreated, going out
from The Palace yard.
The Queen approached Bambang, and said, “
Thank you ! “ Just short of word.
The
Queen thought in her heart, “ How he has divine power like that? It’s absurd ! Shall he betray against his Queen, using his weapon?
He may be ! I have to be
attentive concerning him, from now on.”
The
Queen frightened, as if he has a tiger in her home; As her animal pet.
Bambang
Menak approached his Queen, then asks, : “ You’re Majesty, shall I capitate his
head, then present it to you ? “
“
What you mean ? “
“
Head of King Prabu Mancruet “
“No
! You don’t have to ! “
Suddenly,
thousands buffaloes armies rush going into The Palace yard, to take the dead
body of their King. Eventhough, Bambang
has been using his weapon to chase them away, but they didn’t want to leave
away, but they want to die. Some others
came again and again. They said, that the
dead body of their King was important to be saved.
After
a while, The Queen shouted to the enemies troops “ You can take your King
away. We didn’t need your King’s dead
body. Take it ! And Leave Majapahit now
! Otherwse, we will crush you again.
the same as your King, who have been crushed by our warrior.”.
One
of buffaloes armies, went approaching to the dead body. He brought it away
carefully. His friends assisted. They kept silent, not talking. They knew that the war was still going on; while
Bambang Menak was holding his weapon, threatening. He has horrible appearance, looks like giant.
Who the Commander of enemy
troopers now? He must be the important
man, who should say something concerning peace with Majapahit Commander. The enemies should be surrender, because
their King was death already.
But they didn’t say any thing. Then The Commander of Majapahit Army,
Bambang Menak have conclussion that the war was still continuing; And must be
continued.
Buffaloes
troopers retreated, turn back to Blambangan.
Eventhough
their amount was double than that Majapahit Army, but their spirit was poor. They didn’t have courageous any more, since
their leader has been death already.
But
they didn’t reveal their wisdom as surrender’ or making peace with their
opponent. Therefore, they have to wait
Majapahit troopers whose would have come for war attacking as revenge.
Bambang
Menak reported his Queen, “ You’re Majesty,
I regreted that the head can’t be presented to you, as I promisse. But it wasn’t my fault. They have retreated their armies turn back
to Blambangan; They didn’t say any, just run, run away.”
The
Queen answered, “ That’s mean the war was continuing up until now. You and your troops have to attack
Blambangan, until they want to surrender official.
Now
I command on you to do your task, attack Blambangan, catch their leader ! “
“
Yes my Queen ! I will do my task. The war preparation could be done in one
week, then our cavalry horses troopers will act soon.”
“
Conquered Blambangan, then you could have been a King in that new Majapahit
Territory. You are Great ! so, ...Success my warrior !”
“ Thank you so much You’re
Majesty.
Beside that, you have your
promisse want to give me present; Do you remember it? “
“
Yes I do ! “
“
You hate if one of your people didn’t trust on you; Do you remember ? “
“ Yes I do !
Listen to me, hi my warrior !
I will give you your
present! But the present must be
initiative of my mind, not your mind!
You can’t ask me everything
that you want.
It is not your willng, but my
willing to give you present .
Do you understand ?”
Bambang Menak kept silent, no
more word will saying.
What present that Bambang
want to, exactly ?
He wants to marry Kencana
Wungu.
However, The Queen Kecana
Wungu was not an article; That could not be presented as a wife to him.
If so, then God should give
that big present to him.
Because Wungu not just a woman,
but a Queen of Majapahit Kingdom.
She belong to the people of
Majapahit Kingdom.
Mean while, Bambang Menak
thought, “Wungu just a woman. I love
Wungu as a pretty woman, not as a Queen!
I don’t care what ever Wungu
was.
But I want to say that ... She
was just a woman! “
That was grief of Bambang
Menak, that can’t be stopped in his mind.
At last, Bambang said, “ I
understood, You’re Majesty ! “
Bambang Menak thought, “
Seems she knows what I want to, eventhough I never reveal it to her. Seems to me, she will refuses my willing, if
I revealed my love to her.
So, I have to prepare another
strategy, when I would have been a King in Blambangan.
If necessary, I would have to
launch war attack from Blambangan, to seize her Throne.”
The Queen also thought,
concerning of him, “ I suspicion that he wants to seize my Throne and wants to
make me as his wife.
Remember hi Bambang Menak !
You are just a common people; Just one of my own people.
How dare you?
But in reality,......He looks
like a tiger pet in a den. Sometimes he
could bite me and kill me; That’s horrible!
I afraid really.
Unfortunately, now ‘the
tiger’ has escaped, escapee from its den, then ‘it’ going into forest, since I have allowed Bambang
Menak being a King in Blambangan Kingdom.
Do I do wrong? Do I maked
mistooken decision, to allow him as
Blambangan King ?
Yes I do a mistake about him;
Now, it’s too late!
Hopefully he would be lose in
battle field of Blambangan. Hopefully he
would die also.”
Short story, Bambang Menak
was able to conquere Blambangan Kingdom.
The people of Blambangan welcome him ( but may they had been forced to
accept him) as their New King. Lucky for
Bambang Menak.
He declare himself as a King
with title King Menak Jinggo.
Menak is father’s name and
Jinggo is mother’s name; That’s why he use that name, King Menak Jinggo.
He should have respected The
Authority of Majapahit Kingdom, but in fact he shouldn’t. He acted as a free King and making his rule
to the people of Blambangan.
Even he prepared war assault,
against Majapahit Kingdom, in next of war.
There was a top-secret of
that Kingdom; That no body knows what the secret is.
It was concerning the weakness of King Menak
Jinggo.
Without his weapon, Yellow
Bludgeon, Menak Jinggo was nothing. King
Menak Jinggo become a weak man if he lose his weapon.
The weapon was miraculous and
tough.
If King hold it, then he
would become (or looks like) a giant, that every body fear of him.
But in reality he was just a
weak man.
That was the secret.
Chapter 2
Queen
Kencana Wungu can be relaxed for a while, because her ‘warrior’, Bambang Menak,
has gone; But sometimes he would have come back again. She will never hope for his returning; Even
she frightened about him.
The
Queen thought,
“ King Menak Jinggo should have being satisfied forever as a King
in Blambangan, then he could have forgotten about me. Then
it could be my trick, .... but how ?
I will send a pretty woman,
for she could becoming a wife of him!
If King Menak Jinggo have had a pretty woman as his wife, then he
could have forgot on me.
Even he would have been becoming
cool to another woman.
Because he would have loved
his pretty wife very much; Hopefully !
I will prepare a pretty woman
who will be sent secretly to Blambangan.
Then she has to show her up in front The King,.... but how?
She could dancing in front
The King. Yes ! She could dancing as a dancer of a Comedy
Club.
I will asked Kingdom secretary to prepare and to program my
strategy, secretly “
Mean
while, people of Majapahit were happy, after the war; The news saying, that the enemies were gone,
going back to their Country. Bambang Menak
as Majapahit warrior has become Blambangan King. That was good news of Majapahit people.
But
people didn’t know, what would be happening next? They didn’t know what Bambang Menak’s willing
in his mind; Just The Queen can guessing
in her mind, that Bambang would have seized her Throne and making her as his
wife. She concluded about it, when
Bambang asking his present from the Queen.
Yes
trully, that The Queen’s suspicion was right.
Even King Menak Jinggo prepared Blambangan Army to make next war attack
against Majapahit Kingdom.
Chapter 3
At
last the pretty woman could be found by The Queen, then she will be sent to
Blambangan. She was Dewi Wahita. She was a loyalty of The Queen.
The
Queen said, “ Thank you so much for you want to do my order. What I want to say to you, as your task, was
a secret; The Kingdom’s secret! So, please
don’t be divulged; Keep it in your mind as a top secret. Say to every one who wants to know about
you, that you are just a woman from Blambangan village. Please, don’t say that you are a Majapahit
woman.”
Your
task is being pretend as wife of King Menak Jinggo. I knew that you can tease The King up, until
The King could being fallen in love with
you; Then you and him could be married.
What
do you think? ”
Dewi Wahita kept silent for a while.
After that she said, “ It
must be a difficult task of me, but I must do!
And I could be able!
Your Majesty, may I ask you
something; That I need a friend to
accompany me.
I can’t do my task alone; May
I? “
“ Your friend must be a young
pretty lady, the same as you. And she
wants to do my order, likes you. She
must also a loyalty, likes you. “
Again Dewi Wahita kept silent
for a moment; Then she said, “ Yes she
was! A woman that properly can do your task;
I hope she wants to marry with
Blambangan King. By then, The King would have two wives; What do you think ? “
“ No problem. A man likes him, could marry with more than
ten women, even more he was a King. He
also has divine power too.
Unfortunately, he may still
wants to get me as his wife. So that,
my trick could be fail; That would be my
problem.
I still hoping that King
Menak Jinggo would have fallen in love with you with true love, then he would
have not eagered with another woman.
Because both of you were pretty women.
Hoping, after he married with
both of you, he could forgetting on me.”
Dewi Wahita said, “ Tomorrow
morning, I will send my friend to you, who’s name Dewi Puyengan. If you agreed, then I would be glad.
Really! I need
a friend to fulfil difficult order of you.”
Short
story, Dewi Puyengan was accepted as candidat to do Queen’s order.
The
Queen said to both of that women, “ Thank you very much that you want to help
me and our Kingdom. The Kingdom
Secretary also will assist on you, secretly; They will build a Theathre Club,
that the Club could make entertaiment show in The Palace. Hoping The King affinity with both of
you.
A house has been prepared for
you all.
Remember ! You must conceal your real identity.
I have another task for
you. You have to know, or try to get
knowing, concerning The King’s weapon; What actually Yellow Bludgeon was ?
When you would have being
wife of him, then you could ask him seduction about it; Asked him like a joke
question, but not as seriously asking.
For example, ‘ Could you sell The Yellow gold, as your weapon, to by our
food, when our Country would getting famine’
Peep when The King stored his
weapon; Where the place, that he has spent it, usually.
I know that was a difficult
task of both of you; But I believed on
you, that you could do it with easy manner, and more than that, .... you will
feel being happy too; Do you? “
Dewi Wahita said, “Yes we do,
Your Majesty ! We are happy too, since
we got a King would have been our husband.
Please do pray for us ! Hoping
The Goddess could may allowing us to do our task.”
At last The Queen says, “
Good luck my warriors ! Goddess will
accompany you all ! “
Chapter 4
Patih
Lohgender and his family were happy, since the difficult task of dreadful war
was over. He thanks to Bambang Menak, who have been appeared at sudden and help
his Country as well as all of Majapahit Army, unexpectedly.
Bambang
Menak was hero of Majapahit Kingdom. Every
body agreed with this opine !
There
was another handsome young man also showed his coming up, infront Patih
Lohgender. He wants to be hero for his Kingdom too. Actually, he looking for job.
“ Hi
Patih! Will you bring me infront The Queen! I will help my Queen, since I want to give my
hands to help my Kingdom. I love my
Country! “
“
Who are you? “
“ My name is
Damarsasongko! I am bachelor, and I need
a job !
But I need a aspecial job,
that I want to serve my Queen.
I knew my Queen will need me,
then I would have done her order as hard as I could; When she asked me.”
“ Strange of you ! How did you know that your Queen will need
you? “
“ Goddess said to me! “
Patih thought, “ I have heard
folklore of King Airlangga, The King who have ability to talk with God. May Damarsasongko could talk with God, same
as King Airlangga.”
“ I can’t believe ! How Goddess has told you?.
Any way, lucky you, that you
can talk with God.
If so,.... will you help me, before
I let you to serve The Queen? Will you?
“
Damarsasongko kept silent for
a while; Seems he disappointed with
Patih’s asking.
“
What can I do for you, hi Patih? “
“
Care my horse “
“ Do you want to humiliate me,
hi Patih?
Serving a Queen would be difference than that
serving a horse.”
“ Yes I know that.
But you said you need a
job; So I offer you a job.
Please, ask your Goddess, what
kind of job that could be appropriate for you?
Might be, I right; That, before serve our Queen, you must serve
my horse.
May God will say on you, as his answered.”
Damarsasongko kept silent,
but now he calm down, not angry again.
Perhaps he has asked his God
in his heart, concerning Job of his.
Infact he can be able to talk with God,
concerning his job.
Patih’s opine same as God’s
willing.
After a while he says, “ Yes
I accepted that job.”
Damar worked in Horses den,
to clean the den, serve it’s grasses food, drink water and also everything concerning of
horse’s care. Horses was an important
animal, for it could use as transportation,
aspecially in military bussiness.
Damar worked with happy
feeling, because he no more feel be humiliated by Patih.
God said to him, that he must
be patien!
Damarsasongko was a man who
was so near to God of Wisnu. Therefore,
he always being happy. Patih’s saying
was right, that he was a ‘lucky man’.
Unfortunately there were two
sons of Patih, who always annoying his
job. They came as intruder and making
false and mistake in his job.
God always said, please be
patien!
They were Layang Kumitir and Layang Seta.
“ Hi ...Look ! We have a young man who work for us ! “ Layang Seta shouted to his brother.
“ What job that my father
order on you ? “ Layang Kumitir asked to
Damar.
“ Care your horses “ Damar said shortly. Wisnu God warned him, for being carefull
with those young men.
Layang Kumitir said, “ I said,
your job was not just do that, .... but also take care our plant in our yard
! OK ?
Watering our plant! “
Damar didn’t know who are
they, so Damar asked, “ Who are you ? “
“ I am Layang Kumitir; And my
brother’s name is Layang Seta. Both of
us,were sons of Patih Lohgender. So, I can add your job, as I want to; Do you undrstand ? “
Damar answered, “ No I can’t
understand you ! “
“ You didn’t understand me
? Or you want to refuse my order? “
“ Both ! If you want to add my job, then you would
have to pay my sallary, as much as double amount from my salary as normally. So, I
will receive triple salary for a Month.”
“ You are just a labor! You
must know what your rank is!
Even you are a dirty labor! How
dare you ? “
“ I can fight you, if you
want to fight !
You must know, even I want to
be hero as Bambang Menak did, to help The Queen.”
Damar ready to fight with his
stillage-foot and both clench hands.
Layang Seta and Layang
Kumitir ambushed. Then they fought. Damar have to fight against two enemies; It’s
not fair; So, we guessing, that Damar
would be lose.
Not so long, Patih Lohgender
came, accompany with a girl; She was Anjasmara.
“ Stop! Stop! Stop!
Don’t fight! “ Patih shouted.
His sons stop their
struggling, and retreated.
Layang Kumitir has swollen on
his right eyes; He groaning because of pain.
While Damarsasongko got bleeding
on his lips.
Layang Seta has not getting
wounded.
" Why did you fight, hi
Kumitir? “ Patih asked his son.
Layang Kumitir didn’t
answer. He just groaning, rub his eyes
with his hand. Seems, he ask his father to do revenge against Damar. Or asking something like protection from his
father.
His acting likes a kid to ask
protection from his father.
Damarsasongko says, “ If you
didn’t want to talk, then I will talk for you.
My eyes has been hit by Damar, because I derogatory Damarsasongko. Then Damarsasongko getting angry; He punched
my right eyes.
That was had happened, hi
Patih.”
Layang Seta and Layang
Kumitir become angry, then they ambush again; Hit Damar with his punch; But
Damar can avoid their attacked.
Suddenly, their father came,
then punch their head, again and again.
Layang Seta and Kumitir screamed, “ Please father, don’t hit us, I asked
apologize to you; Please! Please! “
Then the two brothers run
away, toward their home.
Patih says to Damar, “ I am
sorry about my sons! Now, you can work
as usual. If they came again, then you
can chase them away.”
Anjasmara came, approached
Damarsasongko, “ Can I care your wound ? I am Anjasmara, daughter of Patih
Lohgender. We sorry about my brothers
who have annoyed you. “
“ My wounded wasn’t serious;
It was just a little wound. Then it would be going OK.
Thank you so much for your
politeness.
My name Damarsasongko.
You have to know, that I will
stay in your home, for a long times; Because I will work to care your
horses. Hoping you could be pleased me
to stay in your home.”
“ No problem, even I glad to have you by
accident; Can I be your friend? “
“ Wow, of course you
can. Thank you again for your
politeness.”
Then the two young couple
shake hands. After that, they kept
silent. Seems they have valued each other.
Anjasmara thought, “ Damarsasongko,
you are a handsome young man, that I never have seen a man likes you
before. This is the first time I fallen
in love, love with you.”
The same thing has thought by
Damarsasongko, “ Oh beautiful girl, will you be my partner? I fallen in love
with you. Oh God Wisnu, please! I want
to marry this girl, that I knew you have sent her to me.”
Anjasmara asls, “ So,...
where did you spend your time of night, to sleep, for times being ? “
For times being, I have spend
my night in the den of horse.
“ So, ... Please I be friend beg you for a room
For I could sleeping to
night.”
“ There were plenty room for
you, don’t worry about that.”
“ But please, I don’t want to be near your brothers. They hate me. I don’t know why. If you want to know, ask them.”
“ I have known my brothers’s
character was; They always saying that they are the best among the people in all
over The World. They said, no body could
be equal compare of them. So, including
you too.
If you said yes for every
answering what ever they asked you, then there would be no cruel between of you. But infact, you have fought them.”
“ Yes that was right answer
concerning of them.
Any way, can we meet again,
my friend? I need you. You can make me cool.”
Damar said with his eyes staring
into deep of her heart.”
“ Please say word darling or
sweet heart for calling me, before my
name, will you? “
Surprising heard his
partner’s saying; Damar thought, “ Oh God Wisnu! You agreed with me, then you help me; Thank you so much!”
Damar said, “ Yes I will
! More than that, I want to say.... I
love you ! “
Anjasmara said,” Yes I love
you too “
Then the couple hugged and kissed
to celebrate their agreement for becoming a couple lover of each other.
Damarsasongko lived in home
of Patih Lohgender happily, since he could able to near his sweetheart. Then his love growing become more solid; So
did Anjasmara. Her father seems could be
agreed with his candidate son in law.
Just Layang Seta and Layang
Kumitir, still have their hostility against Damar; Eventhough Damar tried to approache them with
good manner as politeness and respected to them.
The detestation of them, because
of Damarsasongko just a dirty labor, who
must clean horse den, everyday.
They becoming more dislike to
Damar, when Damar always together with his sister.
At last they knew already,
that Damar loved Anjasmara.
After three Month, Damar
aproached Patih; He asked, “ Hi Patih, when you will ask The Queen, for me? You have your promissed to bring me infront
The Queen. For her could give me her
task.”
“ No, I never promissed on
you! But you said, your God have said
about it to you; Do you remember? “
Damar kept silent for a
while. He reminding what was being
happened when he talked with Patih? Yes,
he remembered, when Patih said, ‘How did you know that Queen will give you a
job’ ? Then I (Damar) answered, ‘God
have told me’.
Since Damar didn’t answer,
then Patih says, “ So, you can ask this
problem to your God. I believed that you
can talk with God.
I am not kidding on you; Even I surprised that you can talk with God.”
“ Thank you Patih! I’ll be waiting for God could allow me to
help my Queen. But when? I don’t know.”
Damarsasongko relaxed for a
while. He was a lucky man, since he has
his lover, Anjasmara.
Anjasmara loved him too.
More even, he has been
waiting The Queen, that she would ask Damar sometimes, to do his order.
Then Damar would have an
important task, from Majapahit Kingdom.
That would be wonderful task!
In one occasion Anjasmara
talked with Damarsasongko, “ Darling, I have difficulty to say your name.”
“ Why? “
“ Damar is OK; But ‘sasongko’ was too long to pronounce.
If you don’t mind, we could
change ‘Sasongko’ with other word, I motion the word ‘Wulan’.
Then your name would be
‘Damar Wulan’
Do you agree? “
Damarsasongko kept silent; He
thought, “ She was right; But my mother
could have being angry to me, if I agreed with her.
But I love Anjasmara. On the other hand, Damar Wulan would be better
than that DamarSasongko.
May be God Wisnu has his
wisdom concerning my name, that it should be changed. God has told me, pass through Anjasmara. Yes that was right!
I believe that God have a
plan on his scenario. Remember, God’s
wisdom powerful!
After that, Damar says, “ Yes
I agree. It was a beautiful name of me.
Thank you darling! “
Anjasmara hugged her lover
tightly, “ Hopefully, your new name would have brought you to another luck,
beside you have already your first luck. That you have me, as your lover.”
“ Wow you right darling!
Again, I want to say thank
you to God and to you too.”
Chapter 5
Back again to King Menak
Jinggo in Blambangan Kingdom. He was a
King in Blambangan now, then he must be innaugurated and be celebrated with a
merry party.
The people of Blambangan
agreed with the new King of them.
However, actually they feel afraid
and anger with their King. Because they remember how Prabu Kebo Mancruet has
been killed by Bambang Menak, with horrible manner!
King’s weapon was really
tough and awful;That they always remembering.
The ceremonial of
innauguration was running well; Nobody
wants to protest.
Everybody was invited to The
Palace for celebrate The New King ‘s elected.
That night, everybody was
allowed to eat delecious food from The Palace kitchen.
They were happy, and they
could forgetting the last war against Majapahit. They pretended not to care, whether one of
the Majapahit warrior, has becoming King
of Blambangan.
But now, the people of
Blambangan support their new King.
Why they support their
King? Because their King provide Blambangan Kingdom,not Majapahit
Kingdom. Eventhough he was ex warrior of
Majapahit Army in the last war.
Really ? That was an awkward idea of Bambang Menak.
How could he change his political idea?
When Bambang Menak has
defeated Blambangan, he spoke infront people, :
“ Hi people of
Blambangan! I knew that you are going to
be sad and regreted for the result of this war;
But me too!
I knew also, you are
regreting the dieing of your King, Prabu Kebo Mancruet. I want to say sorry about his dieing, even I
want to revenge for his dieing.......”
The people kept silent, no
sound can be heard. Because there was
an awkward sentences of Bambang Menak.
Why he wants to revenge Kebo’s dieing?
The people didn’t understand why Bambang wants to fight against his own
Country, Majapahit Kingdom?
At last, one of the leader
Community asked The King, “ Your Majesty, why do you want to revenge against
Majapahit, for the dieing of Kebo
Mancruet? We can’t be able to understand
your word; So please explain your word
for us now! “
“ I know that you have
becoming confuse by hearing my saying; I am sorry about that.
I also want to say sorry to
my supperior, Queen Kencana Wungu, that I have to fight against you! Oh my
Queen! ........
Because you have refused your
present that you have promissed for me.
Hi Kencana Wungu, I will
never forget your word, that you hate the man of your people who didn’t trust
on you. Now, you have foud that
man; That was me. I can’t trust you any more, since you refuse
to give me your present, that you have promissed.”
The Leader of Community asked
again, “ What kind of present that The Queen say to you? “
“ She promissed me to allow for marrying her, and I love her very much.”
Now the people kept silent
again for the second time.
They thought, “ Bambang Menak
was the same as Kebo Mancruet; They foolhardy concerning woman. But as a leader of Community, they didn’t
care concerning wealthy of his people; And didn’t care concerning the happiness
of his people.”
The Leader of Community asked
again, “ So, there would be a next war.
Your Majesty, you have known that a war had made us become poor; That thing you have said in the begining of
your spoken; You said that we are going to be sad, poor as well as regret for the war result.”
King Menak Jinggo kept silent
now, but the people boistereous.
King Menak Jinggo knew that
he need supportted of his people, therefore, he has to hear what people saying.
After a while The King said,
“ I know you hate war; I promisse you,
that there would be no more war between Blambangan and Majapahit.
But you have to know, that I
will fight against The Queen. It should be not a real war.
My problem was just a
personal problem, by then people would not being involved.”
Again the leader of Community
said, “That was your problem concerning woman;
If you don’t mind, then I will show you the pretiest woman up. You can get the women.
Perhaps, you could be able to
forget The Queen of Majapahit; Therefore, there would be no more war, in time
of tomorrow.
People of Blambangan would be
happy, if you didn’t want to attack Majapahit.”
“ Thank you very much.” The
King says shortly.
The merry party was going on
until next morning. The Capital Town
become full with human, since many people came from the other Town at beside.
Not just delecious food, but
also entertaintment can be grace without paying, free of charge. People were happy. Bambang Menak or King Menak Jinggo was an
open-hearted; Now People love their King.
In one accasion King Menak
Jinggo has seen the two girls dancer, whose are really pretty; The King attracted to them; He immagine for
having them as wives.
The King whispered to his
adjutant,“ Bring that two dancer girls infront of me, in my room! “
We have known, that the girls were, Dewi
Wahita and Dewi Puyengan.
Now they already have been stood
infront The King of Blambangan, King Menak Jinggo. Seems it was the secretary of Majapahit Kingdom
has organized that event. The program of
Queen Kencana Wungu was running well, without problem at all.
“ Welcome to my Palace, hi
you the pretiest girls, .... both of you.!”
Dewi Wahita answeres, “ Thank
you, Your Majesty. So, what can we do
for you now? “
“ Will you stay in my Palace with me? Will you?
“
“ What for? We have job to
entertain people, then we are sorry to refuse your willing. “ Dewi Wahita tried to deal with high price
“ Please be my wife.”
“ Oh... really? How a King like you wants to choose a girl
like me as being your wife? You must
know that a wife of a King, should become
a Royal Consort. Then Everybody in this Country have to agree with her.
Shall I be your Consort of a
King, The King likes you? ”
“ Yes you should. Why not? ”
“ Wow, Must I say thank you to you? It must be a dream of me, how I could being a
Consort of a Kingdom, like Blambangan Kingdom?
Of couse, .... I will say, I want to ! With pleasure !“
The King says, “ Thank you
very much! Then from now on, I will call you sweet heart.”
Wahita asked, “ How about my
friend?
“ I say, Both of you.”
Dewi Wahita and Dewi Puyengan
looks at each other. They kept silent.
After a while, Dewi Wahita
says, “ We know that a king could have two wives; Every body in this Country will agree. But, who will be Consort of a King ? Then, who will be concubine of a King ?
You have to decide, between
both of us ! “
The King kept silent; Seems he was confusing since both really
pretty.
After a while The King have
chosen, “ Dewi Wahita will be my first wife and Dewi Puyengan will be my second
wife.
OK? Deal? “
“ You ask me? Not the
opposite!
We should ask you, not you
ask me.
It doesn’t matter! Because of you a King, then we have to
surrender what ever you wants to.”
The King asked, “ By the way,
do both of you,.... love me? “
“ Later on we will dicide,
.... but may be yes, may be no.”
“ Yes, I understood. That was a lust bussiness, but not love
bussiness. But, I wanna say thank you to
you all. I didn’t disappointed.”
“ You right! Your Highness. You are really an open-hearted man, clever
also.”
Dewi Wahita and Dewi Puyengan were elected as
wives of King Blambangan, official.
There was no celebration, since The King didn’t love them, so did both
of the girls.
How ever, The King looks
happy and so did both of the girls.
Dearth of The King must be
revealed;
People of Blambangan knew
already, that The King’s face become likes giant, if he hold Yellow
Bludgeon. His face making people
frightenend and horrible. People also
have always remembering the last war, if he hold his weapon.
His character also becoming
unrighteous and sadistic.
But now, he never again hold
his weapon, after he married both of his wives; Why?
Perhaps, he concealed his
secret weapon, in the secret site. No body knows where the site was? Dewi Wahita
also didn’t know.
Perhaps he realized that with
his weapon in his hand, he would have horrible faces and being angry to every
one at beside.
How could his wives being
frightened every day, day by day?
People can be relaxed for a
while; Even they could be happy when The
King smiled. After he married, then the
character of King would have been changed, to be a man with good character and
genteel as well.
Seems trick of Queen Kencana
Wungu was certainly right on its tract.
Dewi Wahita and Dewi Puyengan
also being happy as wives of The King; No problem at all. How ever, they
remembered the next task of Queen Kencana Wungu, ‘Please, you must try to know,
what The Yellow Bludgeon was? Ask The
King with a joke question, but not a serious question about that weapon.
Hopefully The King wants to mention about it.
In one occasion when wives of
King were relaxing, without her husband on her side;
Dewi Wahita and Dewi Puyengan
heard some one says consuration. Seems
he glorify to a God or perhaps to a Jinn.
The sound was too soft to be heard.
Wahita says to her friend, “
Listen, some one was praying; The consuration sound can be heard softly.This
praying have never be heard at this Palace, previously.”
“ Yes I heard; The sound come
from somewhere in the yard of The Palace.
Let us look for the source of sound; Perhaps there was a man who glorify
satan or jinn.
The King must know this
problem, because no one could be allowed to glorify jinn”
The two women walk slowly
with tip-toe manner, open the door room and went out of Palace building. No one in The Palace yard; It’s desert. Some soldiers should guard The Palace, but
not now; Why?.
The source of sound become
clear; It could be heard from under bayan tree.
Then, the two women saw a man
was standing under bayan tree, who has been reading consuration, for a long
times.
Surprised, he was King Menak
Jinggo himself.
He didn’t know that his wives
were at distance behind him.
Dewi heard clearly what The
King says as his consuration, “
Hi Jinny Rojo Langit
You are Great and Powerful
I come to you for making you glory
I will make you joy and satisfied
I still needed your weapon
I have to borrow it from you
Please allow me to use it
I will use it in the next of war
Please don’t make me being disappointed
Then I will pay you what ever you ask me for
Now, I will spent your weapon on top of this tree
Because now I have my
wife who will stay in my room
Then, she could find your weapon; and may take it away
It could be stolen.
Before The King finishing his
pray, Dewi Wahita along with her friend, have gone away.
They walked slowly since they
worrying to make sound. After that,
they have reached their room, blessed.
The situation was really jeopardy, since The King must be angry, if he
found his wives were peeping his glory to satan.
Dewi Wahita asks, “ I wonder,
why we didn’t find any guard-soldier.
Perhaps God help us to make the soldiers could be disappeared.”
“ No, that was The King ‘s
instructions, for no body can be allowed stay in the yard; Because The King
wants to pray. His praying idolize satan,
that’s why his activity must be a secret act.”
“ You right!
Now we knew that The King
ally with ghost.
What is the name of that
ghost? “
“ Rojo Langit “
“ You right!
We can understand now, why
that weapon was so formidable; We can say that the working result of that
weapon was amazing, unbelieveable,
Surely the satan have helped
the power of the weapon; Then so many enemies soldier could die at sudden.
What you call the weapon was?
“
“ The Yellow Bludgeon “
“ Sttt, stop talking, I heard
shoes step on the floor, That must be King has come.
Let us pretending sleep! “
The King opened the room
door, slowly. He worry that he could
make the pretty wives waking up. Then he sleep too.
Chapter 6
Queen Kencana Wungu prepared
her Kingdom Army, day by day. She
discussed with Patih Lohgender, how to make the Army become more powerfull.
The Queen open the discussion
with her Patih along with few military staffs,
“ We have worked hard to make
our military defence become solid. Thank
you very much for all of you. Our enemy
from East, not yet coming; But surely
they will come soon.
It was a fact, that our warrior,
now has become enemy.
He was Bambang Menak or
King Menak Jinggo.”
“ Your Majesty! Our spy wants to tell you!
Please Jalak Biru, your turn
to speak! “
“ Our secret task was
successfull, that Dewi Wahita and Dewi Puyengan can be accepted as wives by The
King. Seems The King being happy to have
the pretty girls. So far so good, no
problem.
The last news from Dewi, that
The King actually was a man who glorify satan.
The weapon, Yellow Bludgeon was satan possession. No wonder, why that weapon so powerfull,
because it was satan possession. Surely the satan could make it more powerful.
Now that thing was spent on
top of bayan tree.
The King didn’t want to spend
it in his room, as usual. Because the
room also has been using by both of his wives.
The King worried, his weapon could be stolen by his wives.
The King not yet prepare for
attacking Majapahit. Even he promissed not to attack. He said that issue to a chief of Community,
when he spoken.
But I am, Jalak Biru, not
sure about it.
The Queen speaks, “ Thank you
Jalak Biru.
The reportation was detail,
even more detail.
How Dewi can get this news? “
“ Accidentally, Dewi heard a
man was praying in the yard of Palace. The sound was softly, hard to be
heard. Then both of Dewi, were looked
for the source of sound.
At last, they found a man was
praying at under a bayan tree.
Surprising, that the man was King Menak Jinggo. He glorify satan, whose name Rojo
Langit. The King seems had been talking
with satan Rojo Langit, for a long times,seriously.
They talked in detail
conncerning weapon of Yellow Bludgeon.”
“ Very good! Does King Menak Jinggo have a plan to attack
our Country? “
“ Yes in his praying; He asked permission to borrow Yellow
Bludgeon, for it could be using in the next of war. He didn’t mention what Country that he want
to attack.”
The Queen says, “ Frankly, I
got frigtening for facing next of war.
If God had sent another warrior likes Bambang Menak, then I would say
thank you to my God.
Then I will say to that
warrior, please don’t ally with satan, but God.
Patih Lohgender! Please watching at surround you, whether
another a brave young man would have appeared, who wants to help his Country
and his Queen ! “
“ Yes I will watch, my Queen!
“
Patih Lohgender remember
Damarsasongko at home, who wants to help Queen.
He thought, “ No, no,
no, he was just a dirty labor, for
cleaning den of my horses ! “
Likes father, likes his
sons; Both of them was the same thought.
Eventhough Damarsasongko was
serious for having a job from his Queen,but Patih never give attention upon
Damar’s asking. Even Patih forgot about
the dirty labor at home.
Until The Queen himself has
aked him, concerning a brave young man, who might be appeared, at sudden likes
Bambang Menak.
He still dubious about his
dirty labor Damarsasongko.
Patih thought again, “ Shall
I show Damarsasongko up infront my Queen; Then I would say, here is the brave
man that you want him to help you, my Queen.
Yes I knew Damar was a brave young man, but he didn’t have divine power,
likes Bambang Menak.”
Eventhough Damarsasongko have
no divine power, but he has another some advantages. He can talk with God,
because he was the lucky man, that he can getting near God, Wisnu God. God of Wisnu even more powerful than that
Yellow Bludgeon.
Damar Wulan was a handsome
young man, that Anjasmara could being in love with him. Anjasmara fallen in love, immediately when
she saw Damar for the first time.
The last but important, Damar
was also a fighter; It has been proved, when he punched Layang Kumitir,
straight on his eyes.
In one occasion, Patih
Lohgender have been called by The Queen; That was the urgent calling. Patih came with apprehensive faces, “ Is
there a war attack ? “
“ What was happened my
Queen? Does Menak Jinggo come to
attack? “
“ Please be calm! There is no attack, everything was
undercontrol. This word should have been
said from me to you, not the opposite.”
“ Yes I know my Queen. Frankly, I worried about the war. I realized that our Army not being prepare to
be brought into a war.”
“ Therefore, ..... We still
need a brave young man, that we hope would have been appeared, as I told
before. We need another Bambang Menak.
Now I want to say that what I
needed was a man by named ‘Wulan’
Please Patih ! You must look for that man. That is an important order of mine to you! ”
“ So many persons, who used that
name, ‘Wulan’; Then, where I could find
him?
I asks you, who said this
information to you, Your Highness? ”
“In my dream !
As if God said to me, that I
have to find the man with name ‘Wulan’ at your home.
Who could help Majapahit
Kingdom in the next war against Blambangan Kingdom.”
“ In my home ? Ican’t believe it !
I have my labor whose name
Damarsasongko; Is that the man ? If so,
then I will bring him to you, immediately.
But he’s name Damarsasongko,
not Wulan.”
“ Yes please, bring him to
me, as soon as possible !
For time being, I don’t care
by his name. “
Patih Lohgender going home
immediately, for finding his labor, then show him up infront His Queen.
“ Hi Damar ! You can find your Queen, now, as you wish
!
Please prepare yourself, then
we can go to The Trowulan Palace now, as soon as possible.”
Damarsasongko didn’t surprise,
because God have told him about it.
Patih asks, “ Hi Damar, do
you know about the man whose name ‘Wulan’ ? “
“ That is my name ! “
“ As I know, your name is
Damarsasongko, not Wulan.”
“ I just change my name with
Damar Wulan.
Your daughter suggest on me concerning my name.
She suggest on me, that I
would be better by using name ‘Wulan’,
then I accepted it.
She has her reason, that she
has difficulty to pronaunce ‘Sasongko’.
Another reason, Damarwulan would
be nice to be heard compare than Damarsasongko.”
“ My daughter, Anjasmara,
suggesting on you ?
What correlation between you
and my daughter? “
“ She was my lover! I love her! “
“ What you say ?
How dare you?
You just a dirty labor, you
now!
“ God has been approved that
Anjasmara would have been my wife in future of my live.
Do you agree or not agree?
But I don’t care about your
agreement, hi..... father in law!
It’s up to you !
But remember! I love your daughter very much ! “
Patih Lohgender kept silent;
He can’t be able to talk, since both lover has been approved by God. How could he reject Damar as his son in law?
Because of God has protected
Damar Wulan.
As if God was standing at
behind Damar, to protect Damar.
That’s amazing! More
miraculous than that Bambang Menak’s divine power.”
Damar Wulan said again, “ Hi
Patih! You can reject me as your son in
law, ifyou didn’t believe of God. I knew
that I am just a dirty labor man, who have a job to clean den of your
horses. I was nothing, no valued at
all, infront of you!
But, if you believe God, and
believe that God was in side of me, then I want to suggest on you, to accept me
as your son in law! Otherwise you must
fight against ..... God! Then you could
be calamitous! Because of you so brave
to resist wisdom of God.
The wisdom of God was so
powerful, that even The Universe must be agreed with God’s saying, what ever
God would say.”
Not solong,a sound of woman
heard from distance, “ Father! Father!
Father! Please accept my lover to be
your son in law. I love him! “
She was Anjasmara. She run nearing her father, Patih
Lohgender. Patih upset with Damar Wulan.
When his daughter come and
hugged him, he was not passionate to welcome her.
Patih says with anger faces, “
Why did you never tell me, that you already have lover? “
Patih actually have known,
but he pretended not knowing about lover of her.
“ Now, I do ! We just have declared that we love to each
other.
Dear Father! The important
thing of you, was hoping you, that you would agree with us, will you? “
Patih confuse to answer his
daughter. He stared to his daughter and
the candidate of his son in law.
After awhile , he asks his
daughter, “ Do you love him? “
“ Yes I do! I really love
him!
What ever he was, I will
follow him! “
Finnaly he says, “ Very good! So, I will accept Damarsasongko as my son in
law.”
When
he heard, Patih saying agreed, Damar Wulan took knee position in front Patih,
then he kissed Patih’s knee. So did
Anjasmara.
Damar
says, “ From now on, I will call you Father, father in law. Then I ask you for marrying your daughter,
Anjasmara who will be my wife; May I?”
Patih
Lohgender said without hesitate, “ Yes you may! “
The
couple hugged and kissed infront her father.
Damar
says, “ Father!, I will tell my parent now, then we will celebrate the wedding
party! “
“
Please don’t! Not now! The Queen has
been waitting for you now. The Queen has
necessity for you can help her, now ! “
“ Ok
! Let us go to Trowulwn Palace now ! “
Chapter 7
The
Queen just received her spy soldier, who said, “ Your Majesty! King Menak Jinggo have moved his Army, went
to West; Seems they would go launcing a war,
against us.”
The
Queen asks, “ How many soldiers of their? “
“ I
think about three or may be four thousand personel armies.”
“
Did you hear King spoken? “
“
No, I didn’t.”
The
Queen hoping, says, “ We need another Bambang Menak to win this war; Please God!
Sent a good creature of you, to help us! “
She
looks frightened, sad, worry and hopeless also; How to chase the enemies away?
She
can’t being dependently upon her Patih Lohgender. No hoping for her Patih. He can’t help his own Country.
Not
so long, Patih and Wulan came, went into Palace. Wulan sit, with cross-leg position infront
The Queen. His hand being united, then
said, “ Your Majesty!, I came infront of
you, as you wish. Then I ready to do
every order of you, as my task. If God’s
willing, then I could have been successfull done my task.”
The
Queen asks, “ Who you? What’s your name is?
“
“ I
am Damar Wulan.”
“
How did you know that I will give you an order? “
“ Every one, must be ready,
to do an order of their Queen. Patih
Lohgender has asked me for facing you, because you needed me.
However, I wonder, can I be
able to help you? I am just a young man without
divine power “
The Queen says, “ I hope you
can!
In my dream, God had said
about you! That you will success to
solve the problem of Our Kingdom. Then I
believe in God; I pray every day, aspecially in the crucial moment like this.
In my dream God said, that a man name ‘Wulan’ can help to solve my problem as well as Kingdom’s problem.”
“ The Kingdom problem, will not
same as your problem, isn’t it?
Then it would have been
difficult problem to be solved? “
“ Both! My problem will have correlation with
Kingdom’s problem.
King Menak Jinggo eagerly
wants to marry me. He said it was my present to him, when he win the war against
Blambangan Kingdom. However, I have never say it! It was a liar saying of
Bambang Menak.
That was my problem, but it
have correlation with Kingdom Majapahit too, isn’t it?
I want to say once more, that
I have never said a promise to marry Bambang Menak; What ever he said, it
was; That was a liar saying of him.
If he said like this, then it
would be wrong and a liar news of him; Please don’t you believed it!”
“ I understood Your Majesty.
So, I am ready to solve these
problems.
What your strategy would
be? Then What task of me? “
The
Queen kept silent. He thought concerning
Damar Wulan’s character, “ By his question, I
concluded that he was a smart man, who have entered into the central
point of this problem.”
The
Queen says, “ I want to reject his proposal of married, by diplomacy talking,
not a war. Can you talk with King Menak
Jinggo? Hoping, you could make The King being calm and could understand concerning
his propose to marry me. ”
Damar Wulan thought in his
heart.
He also asks God Wisnu for
helping him, by the heart,
“ Hi God Wisnu,
I knew that you have your
power.
Your Wisdom must have been
agreed by every creature in The World.
So, please make Menak Jinggo could
be agreed with every word what I will say.”
Damar
asks Queen, concerning situation, “ What The King have been doing now? Did he and his armies move to us, then ready
for combating?”
“
Yes he did. According my spy soldier, he
reached Watu Songo Village; That site
was half way for reaching Majapahit border.“
“ So, it’s too late for
making diplomatics talking. However, I will try.
If I failed, then I would
have prepared our Army for making war.
And you, my Queen! Will you go to Madura Island, for escaping;
Will you? “
“ Shall I? “
“ Yes, I think so! You must go!
Because of you, would become
King’s target.
I think, The King didn’t want
to conquer Majapahit, but he just want to marry you.”
The Queen asks, “ What your
effort to kill our enemy?
You must know, he has weapon
of Yellow Bludgeon! That weapon was
endowed with magical power, and even it’s satan possession. If he swung the weapon, then many enemies
soldier could be killed at sudden.”
“ Thank you for your
information.
I didn’t have weapon like
his.
But I am not afraid, since
God of Wisnu always on beside me. I
believe in God.
Please pray for me; Now I will go off, accompany by ten brave
soldiers, for making diplomatics talking with The King. I will go to Watu Songo Village.”
Chapter 8
King Menak Jinggo has prepared his Army, for launcing
war against Majapahit. It’s absurd, then
this story can be said as impossible story. How a Majapahit warrior could be a betray
soldier and fight against his own Queen?
It was a sad story of Grandma, isn’t it?
I have told
you before, that Yellow Bludgeon was satan possession. If The King hold that weapon, then The King’s
face have becoming or looks like giant, no more a King again.
And even his
character could have been changging , something devilish, unrighteous
character. But, if he released his
weapon, then he would have becoming a King, as usual.
This story
would become logical, could be understood.
Because
Bambang Menak’s character, could have been changging every times. So, he become looks like devilish, then
launch a war attack to Majapahit, eventhough it was his own Country.
We could
understand, because Rojo Langit the satan, could have been inside of the man
who hold Yellow Bludgeon.
My Grandma
told us, that King’s wives have asked permission to follow The King going into
the battle field.
In the
begining, The King wasn’t agreed, but the wives have forsed to follow.
At last, The King agreed with them. Dewi and Dewi were happy by then; They thought about their home town, that they
have leaved for a long times; They
forgot about the war.
Short story,
Damar Wulan as well as his ten troopers, have come at Watu Songo Village.
They saw so
many tents at padi-field that must be, many soldiers of Blambangan Army at there;
Estimated four thousand personel armies.
They didn’t
wear topee with buffaloe horn on its top.
Damar hided
in the deep forest. Damar thought, “ I
have to hide, otherwise they could catch and detaine us, then perhaps kill
us! Therefore, I can conduct
diplomatics talking. So, How to do? “
Meanwhile,
King Menak Jinggo approached his two wives, “ I knew you! That you want to see your family at there, do
you? “
“ How did you
know that we have family in Majapahit Country?
Remember!, We are Blambangan Citizen not Majapahit. “
“ I knew that
you lied to me!”
The two
wives kept silent; After a while Dewi
Wahita says, “ Yes you right! I have my
Grandpa in Majapahit. Do you think, it
was wrong matter, by having Grandpa in Majapahit?
Remember, We
don’t want to be included in politics and war; But believe us, that we are
loyalty of Blambangan Kingdom.”
" Yes, I
agreed with you.
Even I allow
you to go to your family.
Don’t be
included in my bussiness of war! “
Surprise for
the two wives. Everything could running
well, because The King didn’t hold his Yellow Bludgeon. Good character of him has correlation with
his acted, hold or didn’t hold his weapon; It has been proved now.
In the mid
night, there were two horses women going off from The Village. That women was
Dewi Wahita and Dewi Puyengan. The guard
soldiers respected with wives of their King.
Mean while,
Damar saw that two horses women going off, “ Who that horses woman? Perhaps they were spy soldiers of Blambangan
Army.”
Damar run
after the two horses. He didn’t use
horse, to minimize sound.
At last,
Damar could reach them, then stopped them.
“ Good
morning ladies !”
Dewi Wahita
surprised to see a man wearing soldier uniform of Majapahit, stopped her
way. Then she unshethed her sword, ready
to fight.
“ Set aside,
or I kill you ! “ Dewi Wahita shouted.
Damar Wulan
going approached her calm, and says, “ You can kill me, because this field has
become battle field. I just want to know
who you? What bussiness of you?, that you have to go in the midnight like
this?
Remember, I
want to make friend with you ! “
“ I don’t
want to give you any information.
You are my
enemy, why did you want to make friend with me? “
“ Look at surround
you! It was dark of a mid night, that every
body has been sleeping. So I will be
happy, if you could agree with me; That in this event of midnight, you could
feel a moment of peace! No body wants to
kill or to be killed, like in a war.
Therefore, it
would be so nice, happy and also enjoy, for you and me. Eventhough the two
Kingdoms would have been in war state.
But we, who live at the different Country can make friend, like this
moment.
Do you agree?
“
Dewi Wahita
surprise again for the second time. She
thought, “ You are Majapahit soldier; but in fact, I am also a warrior of Majapahit too. Pity,
that you didn’t know about me, that I truly on your side, who plead Majapahit.
Any way, you are an handsome young man, that I
like you.”
Since Dewi
still kept silent, then Damar says again, “ Let us hiding in the bush, I don’t
want Blambangan soldier will find us.”
“ I am not
afraid, but you.”
“ Will you be
my friend? Just for a while? Please
forget the war for a moment.! I need you!”
“ Who you?
What is your name? “
“ My name
Damar Wulan.”
“ My name
Dewi Wahita; My friend’s name Dewi Puyengan.
So, If you don’t
mind , then I want to know about you. Please
tell me, what your task in your troops.
And we also want to tell you about our task in my troops.
Because of
you, want to be friend with us.”
Damar kept
silent, and thought, “ Seems to me they are very important person in Blambangan
Army. That’s why, they didn’t afraid to
be found by Blambangan soldier.
So, if I
believed her and trusted her, then I could get benefit from them.”
At last Damar
says, “ I am a diplomat of Majapahit Kingdom, who has task to talk with Your
Highness King Menak Jinggo. Our target
reaching peace condition between Blambangan and Majapahit. Then we could avoid war.”
“ Wow,
Beautiful ! “
Both of Dewi
turned down from her horse, bow her body, united her palm hands, then says, “
Greeting to you, hi High Oficial of Majapahit Kingdom. We are glad to see you.”
“ Thank you
very much, for your politeness! “
“ Now our
turned to tell you about us; We are
wives of King Menak Jinggo. The King
allowed us to go to Singosari Town, for we can meet our Grandpa. Beside we could avoid war by going far away from the battle field. ”
“ Wow...
Surprise to meet the family of King; The wives of the famous King of you.”
Then Damar
makes greeting, the same thing as both of Dewi has done.
Damar in
progress to finish his task, talk with The King, “ Could you bring me to face
your husband? I hope you have the same
target with me, that was making condition toward peace.! Do you? “
“ We do, hoping
like that; We want peace!.
Every body of
both communities, needs peace situation.
But your
effort to face our King, would make risk situation; Even it going fatal to death.
Because
Yellow Bludgeon was always at beside The King.”
“ What is it
mean? “
“ If he hold
that thing, then he become unrighteous, no peace any more. Even you could die, be killed by The King
with his weapon at sudden.”
“
Unbelieveable! How a human can do like
that? That he looks like devil or satan.”
“ Yes you
right! He really has allied with satan,
whose name Rojo Langit.
If he hold
Yellow Bludgeon, then the satan Rojo Langit will going into King’s body via his hand. The King would have been changging
immediately, to be satan Rojo Langit.
His power of muscles become more stronger than that before.
Every willing
of him, was satan’s, not The King’s.
Then Blambangan
Kingdom was dangerous to be collapsed, because Their King becoming satan. Now I need your helping.
So, we are
not shame for asking you, please help Blambangan Kingdom! “
“ Then How
about you, when you lived with him, in day by day? You must be in jeopardy to be death, since
the satan Rojo Langit never known you as
King’s wives, then you could be killed ? “
“ In day by
day, The Yellow Bludgeon was spent in a trunk of bayan tree, at Palace yard,
secretly.
But we have
known the secret site.
When the
weapon was far from him, The King has normal live, likes human.”
“ Catchy, I
have never heard about a King like your King; It’s catchy!
Then, what
can we do now?
Let us go to
Trowulan Palace, to meet our leader, Queen Kencana Wungu.”
“ Frankly, I
have to tell you, that we also warrior of Majapahit Kingdom; Therefore Queen
Kencana Wungu was our leader too.
Our task was
being wives of enemy King, King Menak Jinggo.”
“ Oh
Wonderful! “
“ But we
don’t want to meet our Queen, since we are on secret duty. If The King have known us as spy of his
enemy,then he would have given hard punishment on us.”
“ Please Dewi
Wahita, give us your suggestion, how to defeat King Menak Jinggo; Before you
go.! “ Damar Wulan asking, whimper.
“ The secret
of King Menak Jinggo is on his weapon, The Yellow Bludgeon. If you could steal that thing, then you will
be the winner.
We knew where
he has spent his weapon; We can tell you, that it’s place was in the trunk of a
tree at Palace yard. That was a Bayan
Tree, which lie at South of Palace yard.
There was a hole on that trunk, likes
a hollow of bird nest. That was
the site of the weapon lieing.”
Damar says, “
If I have successful stolen that thing, then I would have hold the weapon. Shall I be a devil, because Rojo Langit could
have entered into my body, via my hand.?
Oh God, how could
it be, that I become satan? “
The two Dewi
surprise; They never think about that’
How some one
could become satan, if he hold Yellow Bludgeon.
So, everybody
would have the same possibility, if he hold that thing.
Dewi Wahita
agreed; She says, “ Yes it could be!
then your
face would have been changging to become horrible faces, like giant.”
Damar says, “
We have to have trick to solve this problem.
The central problem was, don’t touch Yellow Bludgeon, otherwise you
could become satan.
Glove! If you used glove to cover your palm, then
you will never have touched that thing.
Then everything will OK.
What do you
think? “
“
Wonderful! Damar, you are clever! It’s right! “ Dewi Wahita happy to hear Damar’s
suggestion.
Damar says
again, “ I think you could give
beautiful pair of glove as your present to your husband. Then say to your husband, that glove was
important tool, for his protection.
Hopefully,
The Yellow Bludgeon becoming useless, since Rojo Langit can’t be able to enter King’s
body.”
Dewi Wahita
kept silent for a while, then says, “ We will try your trick, but I can’t
promisse on you, for the good result.
Any way, we
have to separate now. But we have to
meet again, for the shake of Majapahit Kingdom;
Therefore, you can try to find our address at Loro Kidul street, number
ten.”
“ Hi Dewi
Wahita and Dewi Puyengan! I need you for the shake of our Kingdom; Since our
struggle to fight against King Menak Jinggo and also Rojo Langit, not yet
finish. We have to continue.”
Dewi Wahita
says whispering into ear of Damar Wulan, “ I love you, you are handsome and
smart. Please, be my partner!”
“ It was have
correlation with our struggle! If I
could have defeated King Menak Jinggo, then I will marry you, I promisse you; I
love you too.”
“ Hi, what
are you talking about? Why I become out
sider, on your talking.” Dewi Puyengan
says, angry.
“ I just want
to say, that Damar Wulan should can’t leave us, because we love him.
However,he
answered, that struggle against King Menak Jinggo, was an obligation.”
“ I love you
Damar! “ Dewi Puyengan said.
Chapter 9
Queen Kencana
Wungu has been waitting for a long times, when finally Damar Wulan came. Queen happy then.
“ Welcome
home, hi my warrior; I hope you bring
your good result for me? What news? “
Damar sit,
with cross-leg and united his palm hands, says, “ Your Majesty! I can’t face The King, since his weapon
always on his side, it ready to be hold.
If he hold
that weapon, he will become unrighteous King;
Because his character would have been changed.”
“ Who said? “
“ King’s
wives that I have found them, when they want to go to Singosari Town.
They can be
my friend, eventhough they were our enemy.
They
confessed that they are warrior of Majapahit too, whose have task to become
King’s wives.
I think you
have known them, right? “
Damar told
The Queen everything news of King Menak Jinggo, Who glorified satan, name Rojo
Langit, His weapon Yellow Bludgeon as well.
Damar said, that the news come from wives of King.
“ Whose their
name? “
“ Dewi Wahita
and Dewi Puyengan.”
“ Yes I
knew! They were my women soldiers that
We have sent them to Blambangan.
So,what was
your planning then, hi Damar Wulan? “
“ As I have
told you, please go to Madura Island, for your safety.”
“ Then ...
what? “
“ I have no
plan any more ! Iam sorry about that !
I could fight
King Menak Jinggo, if he didn’t be assisted by Rojo Langit, the satan.
Actually now,
we have been fighting against satan, Rojo Langit, not King Menak Jinggo. The satan invisible or hidden. He was a King of satan, by then he has
thousand soldiers at behind. I knew the
satan want to conquer Majapahit Kingdom.
Seems to me,
it was absurd, can’t believe. However, it was the reallity!
You have told
me, hi my Queen! It was absurd,
amazing, can’t believe, as well!
How King Kebo
Mancruet, could be killed, with easy manner with Yellow Bludgeon weapon.
So I want to
say, that action has been done by Rojo Langit the satan.
Now I feel,
that I am useless soldier, even hopeless as well.
Just God of
Wisnu can help me.
Please give
me times to pray and asking God Wisnu, Your Majesty! “
“ Yes! You can go to temple. But remember times was limited, since The
King of Blambangan was about to come.”
Damar Wulan
went into temple, then prayed and asking help for winning the war.
“ Oh God
Wisnu, please come to me!
Please help
me to defeat satan Rojo Langit
I knew that
satan and every satan, was enemy of yours
And enemy of
human in all over The World, as well.
Please come,
go inside my body, make more power in my muscles.
God of Wisnu
answered, “ I will help you! Believe me
that I have being inside your body.
I have told
you, that you can use pair of glove to cover your palm, to protect you.
Now, use
other pair of glove to be used by King Menak Jinggo.
Therefore,
Rojo Langit can not be able to go inside King’s body.”
Thank you oh
God Wisnu!
I can’t go
nearing The King; Since it would make me
in jeopardy situation.
But I have
asked King’s wives to wear that glove to cover King’s hands
But they
said, not promise.
Perhaps The
King’s character could be changging to be unrighteous; They afraid.
Please help
me to solve that difficult task of me.
God of Wisnu
answered again,” I will guarding King’s wife, when they go to The King.
I will guard
every step of them until reaching The King’s Throne.
I will help
every word when they say to The King.
I will held
King’s bad emotion.
and I will
protect The King against the satan’s influenced.
Don’t forget
to meet King’s wives, now.
Damar Wulan was in hurry to pick Two Dewi up
from their adress
He also
prepared The Glove; That must be beautiful and elegant of gloves, as well.
He prayed
infront The Two Dewi, as if he was Priest of Hindu religy
Finnaly, he
gave his command to the women soldier,
“ You are
brave soldier of Majapahit Kingdom
Now you have
your task, to wear these glove to King’s hand.
I think you
will find everything could be running well, because God of Wisnu will accompany
you, from now on.
Don’t worry,
you would be safe.
The two ladies
asks Damar, “ How did you know that I will be safe?”
“ I have
asked God of Wisnu to protect you and to make everything going well.
Now, go! “
Dawi Hahita
says, “ The King was on the way, almost reaching the gate of Palace now.”
Damar Wulan
shouted, “ Find your husband now!
Don’t forget,
say I love you, as usual ! “
Chapter 10
Queen Kencana
Wungu still in her Palace. She should
go to Madura Island, for her safety.
However, she
don’t want to go; What was the reason of
her?
She have ever
fought against King Kebo Mancruet;Then she got bleeding on her hand. By then, everybody
knew that she was a brave woman.
That’s why
she don’t want to go. Beside, she want
to show her people up, that she was The Queen of Majapahit, who has resposiblity
to her people and Majapahit Kingdom as well.
Not so long,
a guard soldier of The Gate, came and gave a letter; It has been followed by a
sack of Gold.
The soldier
said, it was a piece of letter and following with present from King Blambangan. The King didn’t show him up. However a
soldier of Blambangan came to guard the present; Since the presen was valuable.
The soldier
greeted The Queen, then he opened the sack, spread it’s content; It was gold ,
jewellry as well as other ornamentation; It’s bright, amazing!.
The Queen
surprise to see the jewellry;
But she
almost shocking by news of The King’s coming, eventhough just at infront The
Gate.
She thought,
“ The ‘tiger pet’ was infront the gate, want to bite me now!”
King Menak
Jinggo writed,
“ Dear Wungu, my lover!
I will not discussing about your present.
But in this letter, I want to propose to marry with
you.
It would be so nice to be with you, in our next of
living, isn’t it?
I love you!
Please be my side as my wife, then I will serve you.
However, I don’t want to conquer your Kingdom, more
even to ruin it.
Just you! That
I want to!
I am waitting your answered, at beside of your
Trowulan Palace.
Again I want to say, I love you!
King Menak Jinggo
The King of Blambangan Kingdom.
“ Please call
Damar Wulan, now! “ The Queen shouted.
Damar Wulan
came in hurry; He sit in cross-leg, united his palm hands, then says, “ I come
for you, Your Majesty! “
The Queen
shouted, frightening,
“ You must
know, that King Menak Jinggo was at infront of The Gate, now !
Fight
him! Chase him away ! “
Damar says, “
You should have been in Madura Island, as I told you before. Please be calm, because of you want to stay
in Trowulan Palace.
However, it
wasn’t your fault!
But It was
your wisdom, for not going.
Unfortunately,
Your wisdom in your brain, has more powerful than that of mine;
Because you
are a Queen.
By the way, I
have to fight against those King now;
I have sent Dewi Wahita and Dewi Puyengan as
well as God of Wisnu to protect Dewi.”
The Queen shouted,
“ Can those
women soldier fight? “ Seems Queen angry.
Damar
answered calm, “ Why you didn’t reckon God of Wisnu?
You must
know, God’s wisdom more powerful than that of yours; Because he was God.
All Universe
must being agreed with everything God’s saying.
No one can be
able to resist against God.
Therefore, what
ever God’s saying, then every creature in this World must obey.
Remember! The
Universe was God’s mine.
Therefore, King
Menak Jinggo as well as his friend, Rojo Langit, was nothing infront the God.
Oh God of
Wisnu! I don’t have to pride on you,
because every body should have known about you.
Please forgive me! “
The Queen
being surprised, heard the religy spoken by Damar. Now she realize that God was Almighty. King Menak Jinggo and Rojo Langit just God’s
creature, who must obey and agree with God’s saying.
However, The
King never heard the religy spoken like Damar’s talking, by then The King was
still enemy, who have to be defeated.
Can Damar do? Then have good result?
Damar says
again, “ If King Menak Jinggo and his ally could have been defeated, then you
can being surprised; Not now.
Then we wait
the result: Unfortunately I can’t help that women soldiers”
Chapter 11
King Menak
Jinggo can’t be patient; He walked left, right, back and fort. While the weapon was on the table, ready be
used in crucial of time. He has been
waitting his delegate, for a long times. He love Queen, but now he hate The Queen;
Love and hate could have changed able.
Not so long,
his wives came unexpected.
He thought, “
I wonder, why did they came at battle field?
I have told them for going to
Singosari Town; They could meet her
Grandpa and other family.”
Dewi Wahita
says, “ Hallo Your Majesty! I come to
you now! “
The King
says, “ Why did you come in the danggerous places; You should being happy with your family, do
you? “
“ Yes we do.
However, we wonder by your safety in this place.
In the battle
field, every body could have
wounded. They come, ready for combating,
then they kill or to be killed, to each other.
That’s why,
we came to you; For we want to give a pair of glove, to protect your hands. After that, then we will go off,
immediately.”
“ Thank you!
“
The King
stared to both of his wives, change able.
In his heart he asks, “ Not usual, wives of mine came to meet me, just
want to give a pair of glove! What for
those thing?”
The King
says, “ Put those thing on the table.”
Dewi Wahita
asks,“ Can I wearing it on your hands now?”
“ You don’t
have to ! “
“ Well,.....
now we will go off. Good luck to you ! “
Then Dewi
Wahita and Dewi Puyengan went out of King’s tent. The soldiers at there, didn’t care about
those women; since they already knew them.
They take her
horses and run away to Trowulan Palace.
Dewi Wahita
report her task to Damar Wulan, “ We have done our task; Everything was running
well.”
“ Thank you
! Did you wearing it?, Put it in King’s
hand? ”
“ No, because
he reject to wear glove. “
“ So, the
task was not running well!
It was just a half task was running well,
That was , you really save.
But the
crucial point, to put the gloves in King’s hand, was fail.”
“ I am sorry,
so please don’t be angry my dear! “
Dewi Wahita
said ‘dear’ for calling Damar; May she really in love with Damar.
Damar says
again, “ Perhaps, you forgot reading supplication in front The King, do you? “
“ .... Yes
.....I do ! I am sorry again. That because I was nervous to see The King’s
face.”
“ However, You
have been looking his face for a long times, day by day.
Why did you
got nervous?
That because
of, .... God of Wisnu didn’t follow you; He didn’t help you; Oh ...pity! “
“ But, The
King’s character becoming good, unusual.
Therefore, I
believe The God was at there to help us.
Eventhough I
have forgotten to read supplication.
Queen Kencana
Wungu was at there; She was hearing the conversation
Damar Wulan
turn his face to The Queen, says, “ Your Majesty! King Menak Jinggo will come about infront The
Gate. Will you write a piece of letter
for him, as reply letter?
Then I will
face those King, to bring your letter.”
“ What would
I say to my enemy? I can’t write it!
Will you help
me, my dear Damar Wulan?”
“ I will make
a letter for you.
Ok ! Now, please write my saying to become a letter! “
Then The
Queen write a letter, copying Damar said.
Hi Menak Jinggo
I have received your propose letter, and I understood
what do you want to.
I am sorry, that I have my own partner; I found my
partner long times ago. Now I have been with him, for forever; Even we will
marry soon.
Thank you very much for everything did you have given
to me, included your love too.
So, please you as well as your armies go away, back to
Blambangan.
Thank you that you didn’t want to conquere my Kingdom.
Queen of Majapahit Kingdom
Queen Ratu Kencana Wungu
Ratu Kencana
Wungu agreed with Damar saying, and she wrote the letter without resist at
all. But after a while, she feel wonder
as Damar saying, that she has partner that will be married with her, soon; Who that man was? “
Queen asks
Damar, “ I wonder, why you say that I have my partner for my own? Who that man was? “
“ That just
pretending! You can guessing, who that
man was? “
Suddenly, a
spy soldier report to The Queen, in hurry, “ Your Majesty! The King with his arrmies has been at front
of The Gate, now ! He said, thet he
wants to meet The Queen and talk face to face, now!.”
“ What you
say?
The King come
? “
Queen Kencana
Wungu surprises and frightened as well.
“ Please be
calm Your Majesty!
Will you go
to Madura Island? “
“ I don’t
want to go, except if I would have gone with
you! “
“ My task to protect
this Palace, not to guard you for going to Madura!
So, I will
ask my staff to follow you, want you? “
“ I prefer to
be with you.”
“ But I want
to face The King to give your letter;
And also will do the diplomatics talking with The King; That was our plan, isn’t it? “
“ I will be inside
The Palace, while you go to face The King.
Hoping that you would have gotten your successfull to chase The King
away.”
Damar gave
his command to the Archer group, whose stay upstair at Palace balcony.
“ Shoot the
King, if you saw that he wants to kill me!
Now I will face Those King! “
Damar
accompanied ten Majapahit soldiers went out of Gate, with white flag in his
hand. He just have a blade (keris) in
his back of trousers. He walked slowly
for reaching King Menak Jinggo.
He didn’t
forget read supplication and pray, “ Oh God Wisnu! I knew that you still being inside my
body. I knew that you want to help
me. Please help me, since my enemy was
also your enemy. That was Rojo Langit the satan!
Make the
Yellow Bludgeon becoming useless, because you could chase Rojo Langit as well
as his troopers away from The King’s body.
I believe you could be able, because you are my God, also God for every
creatures in this World and all Universe as well.
Please
forgive me, if I have asked you excessive asking.”
The King
looks unrighteous and furious to see Damar Wulan, eventhough Damar hold white
flag in his hand.
Then he took
his weapon from a table. It was Yellow Bludgeoan
Unfortunatelly,
he didn’t use his gloves. So, Rojo Langit could enter into King’s body.
Now he ready
to use his weapon to Damar.
Fortunatelly! God of Wisnu help Damar Wulan.
Suddenly,
arrows flying to the King’s body. Some of the arrow stabbed into King’s body.
Surprises, blood
drip on to ground, from his wounded.
The King
should never have wounded, because he has divine power; But not now.
The King also
surprises. Now he knew that he has lost
his divine power, by seeing his blood drip on to ground. It should never have, that his body got
wounded.
Now he also
feel that his courageous has disappeared.
Now he fear
to death.
However, his
Patih gave command, “ Attack ! Attack
! Attack ! “
Damar Wulan
gave his command to his ten soldiers, for going away, “ Run ! Run ! Run ! “
Damar run
away into The Palace, “ Open the Gate ! “
The Gate was
oppened, then Damar Wulan and his ten soldiers could come into.
While
Blambangan soldiers rush neared The Gate, but they come late, The Gate have
been closed. They fire their arrows to
the balcony. Some Blambangan soldiers
got his ladder to climb the wall of Trowulan Palace.
Majapahit
armies ready to receive his enemy on top of ladder. They fought face to face with blade and
sword.
Now the enemy
come more and more with their ladder.
Then the battle field was in side The Palace. Damar Wulan led his armies to fight their
enemies bravely
The Queen
admire him, how he could become hero of Majapahit Kingdom, hoping he was not a
‘tiger pet’ in its den, like Bambang Menak.
Damar saw The
King has pale face, because more blood drip on to ground. He stay near wall of Palace. Damar want to end the war, by asking The King
about his promise, not to conquere Majapahit.
He approached
the edge of wall and shouted to The King at bellow,
“ Hi King
Menak Jinggo, you have your promise, not to conquere our Kingdom.
Will you draw
your troops away from Majapahit!
Please go back
to Blambangan with peace! “
Someone
approached The King, then whispered in his ear.
Not so long,
The King shouted to his armies,
“ Hi
soldiers!
Retreat
! Retreat ! Retreat !
Come back to
Blambangan !
Hi Majapahit
soldier, we want to retreat with peace!
Please, no
more war! “
The King
didn’t say that he and his armies surrender.
Blambangan
Army go back to Their Country with peace.
The King can’t walk, because he has some wounded; Even blood drip from that wound. Then, some body carried the King with litter.
Majapahit
soldiers were happy; They shouted hurray, hurray ! Viva our new hero, Damar Wulan ! Viva Damar Wulan !
The Queen
thought, “ He was handsome young man, smart as well.”
The Queen
approached her new hero, Damar Wulan, “ Thank you very much oh my hero. You have done your diplomatics talking when
you have been upstair and your opponent at bellow. You said, Please back to Blambangan, because
you have your promise not to conquere Majapahit! “
Damar says, “
You must say thank you to God, Wisnu God.! “
“ Thank you
God of Wisnu,
I knew without you, we would be lose.
But I wonder,
why That King wants to obey you? Hi Damar? “
“ Again I
want to say, because of God has his wisdom, therefore The King obey upon God’s
saying, not my saying. Again I want to
say, that God’s wisdom will make all Universe obey .”
“ How did you
know that God had said? “
“ God of
Wisnu was in my body, then I could be able to talk and discuss with God, for
everytime when I needed him.”
Queen Kencana
Wungu surprises, hearing Damar saying.
She was staring Damar for a long times. She thought, “ God Almighty; He
was a Holly man; He perfect to be a King
in Majapahit.”
Queen Kencana
Wungu says again to Damar, “ Shall we kill The King at his Palace? I feel frightened by hearing his name, just
hear his name, Menak Jinggo! “
“ No! We
don’t have to, because The King has been surrendered, and will not come again!
“
“ Who said ?
“
“ Again I
must say, God said to me ! I am just a
stupid man, that I can’t be able to predict.”
“ If you talked
about God, then I must surrendered then I have no word to say.
Therefore, for
time being, please don’t you talk about
God!
But, we
talked about our strategy to defeat our enemy, will you? “
“ Yes I will,
my Queen. So what your next order on me?
Please say to me! “
“ Please kill
‘the pet tiger’ of mine; I mean Bambang
Menak, or King Menak Jinggo! For me.”
“ An enemy
that has surrendered, can’t be killed!
That was rule of God! “
“ The King
have never say surrender, as I know.”
“ But God
told me, that he has already surrendered.”
“ Again...
you talked about God! Please don’t !
I predicted
that King Menak Jinggo will never surrender, and will come again!“
“ It would be
a sin of you, hi my beautiful Queen; Please don’t kill him! “
“ If so, then
what would kind of punishment for me, by sin that you said?
“ I can’t
answer your question my beautiful Queen, because it has correlation with word
‘sin’, then it would have correlation, toward the word ‘God’.
You asked me,
for not saying word ‘God’, so I will obey you.”
“ You must be
a Priest, not a soldier of Majapahit Kingdom.
Hi my Priest.
Therefore, your task will change now! Please, make the people of Majapahit to become
nice people.
It would be
the first priority of my order, from so many order of mine.”
“ Thank you
very much ! My Queen!
Please! Don’t be angry to me ! “
“ No I am not
angry to you, and I am not making joke to you;
But my word was serious word to all people of Majapahit. Please be honest for becoming my people.
Don’t
cheating ! Don’t Corrupt ! Dont betray !
Don’t hurt the heart of people as well.
Then you,
Damar! Would become their leader
toward good Community.
I want my
people to be good and loyalty to their Country, The Kingdom of Majapahit! “
“ So, .... I
should be a King of Majapahit then, right? “
The
Queen stared to Damar Wulan. She thought, “ Yes, he is right, that he
should be a King of Majapahit Kingdom, the next King. He have to have being my husband, by then.”
The Queen
kept silent for a long times.
At last Damar
says, “ Please don’t you think so far concerning the stupid word of mine!
I just
kidding on you! “
“ No
Damar! We are not kidding; We have been talking concening our Kingdom,
starting with word ‘God’ until word ‘Priest’ then at last word ‘King of
Majapahit’.
You must
know, that our Country would have going to be collapsed now.
We must do
some effort to make waking people up; We must shout, Hi people, please don’t
sleep! Let us work!
Work hard!
You can watch
bad character of our people now;
That everybody
in Majapahit wants to be leader; What ever that leader was, included wants to
be a King. They thought, being a King
must be happy, since every body would serve him; Then he just sit in his Throne,
then everything will go running well, automaticality. Therefore, That King would have being happy
forever, without work and without thinks about people’s fate.
He can marry
with woman that he love! What ever the position of that woman was? If the woman was a wife of someone else, then
he didn’t care about that.”
“ I agree
with you, Your Majesty; My agreeing
reached one hundred percent.!
Even I have
my opinion, that Rojo Langit the satan as well as his troopers, were still at
Majapahit now. Their target to make
chaos and corrupt in Majapahit Kingdom.
“ Any way Damar! Please don’t call me by word ‘Your Majesty’ “
“ Why? Because of you are my beautiful Queen, then I
must being regard to you! “
“ You and I
have same level; Because of you want to be a King; That must be King of Majapahit. Please don’t be a King of Blambangan! “
“ I am sorry,
that I don’t want to be a King.,
I just want to make a joke to you.
So please don’t
you thing so far.”
“ No! Your word have been kept in my mind; That you
have to be a King in Majapahit.
So, I should
marry with you; Will you? “
Damar Wulan
surprises, then staring to The Queen. He
though,
“ Who am I?
That a Queen wants to marry me? It’s strange! “
Damar says
again, “ If you love me with true love, then we could have married.
But not because
of me want to be a King. Are you agree? “
“ I agree
with you.
I love you,
with true love.”
“ But I
should have rejected your love, my dear Wungu.”
“ What was
your reason? “
“ I already
have girls, that I have promised to marry them all.”
“ Girls? How many girl that you have promised? “
“ Three! “
“ So, I will
be the fourth wife of yours; I don’t mind.”
Damar Wulan
was going about to collapse; He got dizzy.
Damar
thought, “ I wonder, how a Queen wants to be the fourth wife of mine? That was an awkward judgment of her. That happening could make all the people of
Majapahit have gotten angry to me; Then, It would become indignity to the
Kingdom of Majapahit by me.”
Damar says to
The Queen, “ Please don’t ... don’t do that!
I am afraid, all people of Majapahit would have being angry to me, then
they would kill me.”
“ Damar,
don’t be afraid about that. I have right
to chose my husband, also chose a King of Majapahit, between all of my people.
You must
remember that I am a Queen that I have my authority in this Country.
However, you
can marry all of your girls.
At the last
event, you will marry me. So, you would
have four wives,... OK?
Believe me,
that no body will resist my decision; Decision of Queen Majapahit.”
Damar asks, “
Now I want to ask you, what was your reason by choosing on me? Since so many
young man in this Country, that they have chance to be chosed by you? “
“ That was
the most important question of you, right? “
“ Yes it was
“
“ Because you
are the most handsome young man in The World.
So, I prefer to choose you.
But you must
remember that another woman will say, you are not so handsome as I imagine. “
“ Thank you,
then you are the most atractive woman in the World too. But just my saying; Perhaps, you have no
value for another man.”
Both, hugged
and kissed to celebrate their love and happyness.
Chapter 12
King Menak
Jinggo has recovered from his sick. His
wound was going well, no blood drip, dried and almost curing. He can turn down from his bed, then walk in
his room.
He
longing for his wives . He needs them to care her health.
He didn’t
know, that Dewi Wahita and Dewi Puyengan has betrayed.
Now, they
have looked after Majapahit Kingdom, no more Blambangan Kingdom.
He wonder; He
thought, “ why Yellow Bludgeon didn’t work as usual? Why I becoming afraid in the battle field at
sudden? Something wrong was happened in that weapon;
Might Rojo
Langit got angry to me, who knows?”
Menak Jinggo
didn’t know! The right answer of his
problem; That it was God of Wisnu has defeated Rojo Langit the satan. That was happening when The King attacked
Trowulan Palace.
When Damar
Wulan was facing The King, Damar has
been assisted by God of Wisnu.
God was so easy to chase Rojo Langit, as well
as his troopers away.
Now The King
try to go out; He wants to go to bayan tree for meeting his glorify, Rojo
Langit. He can walk slowly until
reaching the bayan tree. He thinks it
was important to ask his ally, why Rojo Langit has no more support him, in his
struggling?
Does Rojo has
anger to him?
Under the
tree, The King prays and reading his supplication.
“ Hi Rojo
Langit, I came to meet you
Greeting and glorify
upon you
I knew you
have your power and divine
That no body
can be able to resist it.
I lose in the
last battle.
So, I want to
ask you why it could be happen?
Did you still
with me, as my ally?
Let us
destroy our enemies!
Please answer
my question! “
The King
waited for a moment; Does Rojo Langit can talk? The same as God of Wisnu
talking to Damar, in his heart.
Yes, Rojo
Langit can talk in The King’s heart.
Rojo Langit
says,
“ Welcome my
warrior!
Our target
was same as you, that was, to destroy Majapahit Kingdom.
You must know
that my troopers have been working now, making
the Kingdom ruin slowly, step by step.
They have
influenced The King, Ministry, functionary and official of that Kingdom as
well; Making habit to them for doing corrupt, deceit and betray as well to
their Kingdom.
You can see
that The King didn’t want to care his people any more.
You will see
in future, Majapahit Kingdom will ruin; Even the other Kingdom in Nusantara
would have the same fate. It would be so
bad, that The Kingdom would have been collapsed. More than that, the communities of Nusantara
becoming poor, beggarly living.”
What was The
King’s reaction by hearing Rojo Langit spoken.?
He didn’t
happy! Making ruin of a Kingdom, wasn’t King’s targeted. He just want to marry Queen Kencana Wungu,
but he don’t want to make Majapahit ruin.
Now The King
regreted; He realized that the satan seems has outfox against him. Rojo Langit never say that he wants to
destroy Majapahit, previously. Rojo
Langit just want to lend Yellow Bludgeon and help The King in the battle
against Blambangan, no more.
The King has
asked again to borrow that weapon, once more; for he could using it in the next of war, to seize Queen.
The King asks
Rojo Langit,
“ Why The Yellow Bludgeon didn’t work any
more? Why? I need that weapon. Please mention to me, Hi Rojo Langit!”
Rojo Langit
didn’t answer. Why he?
The reallity,
it was, Wisnu God has defeated Rojo Langit, making Yellow Bludgeon become
useless any more. As if the weapon has
been locked by God of Wisnu.
It was
happening when Damar faced The King at The Palace Trowulan’s Gate.
Eventhough
Damar Wulan wasn’t at there now, but God could have been there, alone.
That’s why,
Rojo Langit can’t answer The King’s asking.
Because Rojo
Langit afraid by God; Or perhaps Rojo Langit has even run away, been gone.
After a
while,
The King took
the weapon from hole of tree trunk. He
hold it and try using it. He swing the weapon left and right. It’s not heavy as usual, but just light; It’s
not produce sound of thunder, just sound of wind.
He also
didn’t feel, that Rojo Langit has come into his
body,as usual.
Seems, the
weapon didn’t work.
The King shouted,
“ Hi Rojo Langit! Where are you? Come
and help me as usual!
I need your
weapon, please fulfil your permit for I can borrow your Yellow Bludgeon! “
But no
responses from Rojo Langit.
Perhaps Rojo
just run away, after talking with The King.
Because God
of Wisnu has chased Rojo Langit away.
The King
thought, “ How I could rule this Kingdom, without divine power from Rojo
Langit?
I could be a
King in this place, because I have my exellent weapon. Every body in Majapahit and Blambangan
getting fear by just hearing sound thunder of this weapon.
Therefore, I
could held politics power in Blambangan, because of that weapon.
But now! I have nothing, ... just a weak hands of
mine. Because the owner of Yellow Bludgeon disappear at sudden. So, .... what can I do now?
I got fear
that the people of Blambangan would chase me away from this Palace, likes a
beggar; even might they would kill me, if they have known about my problem.
Hoping people
didn’t know my problem, that Yellow Bludgeon useless any more.
But, after
that, they will know, surely they will
know.
Now I afraid!
So, It would
be better, for I could running away, now! Leaving Blambangan! “
The King
disappointed, then he turn into his Palace, lied on his bed. He feel tired and fear as well, beside also he
still sick, so he needed rest on bed.
Not so long
Dewi Wahita and Dewi puyengan came into his room, They brought some fruits, since they knew
that her husband was sick.
They din’t
know that The King has lost his divine power.
“ Hallo my dear
husband! Are you well now?
Please don’t
answer.
We will make
porridge or another food that you like, for you!
What kind of
food that you want to? “
“ Just your
coming can make me happy, then thank you .
I am going to
be alright, so don’t worry about me.
Thank you for
the fruits.
I like soto with hot rice.
Both of you
have become more pretty; I wonder, what was your secret? ”
The King
tried to make warm welcome, un-usual.
That because
of he got depressed feeling. He needs friend really.
“ Because we
are happy now, the same as you!
OK ? I
will serve you! “
Both wives
was strange concerning character of The King;
Why it has been changging?
Now The King
more being polite, good performance as
well.
The most important reason was, The King has lost
divine power.
Because his
ally has gone away. But it must being
secret, please don’t divulge!
Rojo Langit
has gone away, therefore Rojo didn’t influence The King again. By then, King Menak Jinggo become a normal
human, as usual.
Eventhough he
still spent Yellow Bludgeon, but it has being useless. The King thought, that he wants to throw away
those thing into the sea. Then he will
forget Rojo Langit.
The food has
been cooked and it’s ready on the table.
Now, times
for Lunch, for King wants to eat with his family.
“ C’mon
darling we shall eat now “ The King shouted.
Even now, The King not likes a King; But he likes a husband of common people.
“ I guesses
you really hungry, do you? “
“ Yes I do “
“ That was
sign of you that you have recovered.”
“ Thank you
very much.”
Dewi Wahita
strange again, to see King Menak Jinggo’s act.
She thought,
“ For the first time he smile and say thank you.
Now The Royal
Family was happy.”
After eat, The King going to sleep.
In one
occasion, both of wives can talk, without husband in between.
Dewi Puyengan
and Dewi Wahita discussed the politics situation in Blambangan Kingdom, after
war. While King Menak Jinggo was
sleeping in his room. Seems they
discussed something secret, that their husband forbid to hear.
Dewi Puyengan
report the situation, “ Every body got suffered after war. Blambangan Community become poor, because of
war. You can see that every body now
have becoming beggar. There were plenty
beggar in every place and every where; included infront our Palace. That was the result of war, every war in
every where.
Every body
talk concerning bad authority of King, King Menak Jinggo. They regret being agreed with Bambang
Menak. The King should be the Royal
Family of King Prabu Kebo Mancruet.
One of chief
Community asks, “ Shall we make rebbelion against The King? “
Dewi Wahita
comment, “ Perhaps, The Royal budget of Blambangan Palace also become poor, no
money to by food, who knows? “
“ We didn’t
know, because we are not official of Kingdom.”
“ So ,... What
do you suggest? “
“ We can
steal Yellow Bludgeon; Then we can sell it, for making money. Do you agree? ”
“ Yes I agree
with you! We can sell it to Kebo Tanak,
brother of Kebo Mancruet. I believe that
thing was needed by him. Because of that thing was so important that he have to
have it. Remember, that Yellow Bludgeon
was effective weapon.”
Mean while
King Menak Jinggo thought, “ Yellow Bludgeon could be used, eventhough it
doesn’t work. If I hold that thing, then
everybody will afraid. Therefore I have
to keep it in save places.
I will take
it now, otherwise, it could be stolen by someone else! “
The
King came at under bayan tree to take Yellow Bludgeon. But it missing! Somebody has taken away. The King angry, “ Who the thief that so brave
to steal my weapon? “
He was going
into his room to find his wives; since he suspicion that his wives could be the
thief who thieve the weapon.
But no one in
his bed room. Perhaps they have run away
and been gone.
The King
thought, “ I wonder, what they want to do with Yellow Bludgeon? They should know that Yellow Bludgeon wasn’t
mine, but satan’s. The satan would
angry, not me. Satan could make them
calamitous .. oh pity of them.”
Dewi Wahita
took away the weapon secretly ; Along with Dewi Puyengan they run their horses
to Head Quarter of Kebo Tanak. That was
rebllion HQ in outer Blambangan City.
People of
Blambangan made rebel against King Menak Jinggo. Then they built their HQ and developed their
Army to prepare rebellion war against King Menak Jinggo.
Short story,
both of Dewi has come infront the gate of HQ,
Dewi Wahita shouted, “ Hi Kebo Tanak, open the gate! We want to make friend with you! We want to help you! “
After a
while, the gate was opened, Kebo Tanak appeared to welcome Dewi.
He was old
brother of Kebo Mancruet. An old man
with white hairy. He says, “ Hi
stranger, what do you want to? “
Dewi Wahita
answeres, “ Thank you for your welcoming us;
I brought the exellent weapon of King Menak Jinggo. Surely you want to buy it, because it really needed by all of you.”
“ Come
in! Don’t talk at open area, since
King’s soldier could be heard! “
After the
gate was closed, then Dewi Wahita shows his merchandise, Yellow Bludgeon. Everybody at there were suprising. They knew already, that horrible thing was! Even some of them have ever bad experience
with Yellow Bludgeon, when they attacked Majapahit.
“ How dare
you, to steal this thing! Who are you,
any way? “
“ You didn’t
know us! We wonder about you all! Why you didn’t know us?
You must
know, that we are wives of your King, King Menak Jinggo.
My name Dewi
Wahita and my friend’s Dewi Puyengan.”
“ The King
have never made a wedding party for your merrying; So we are sorry that we never have known you.
Any way, how
much money, that I have to pay you, for buying this thing? “
“ One
thousand Kepeng. That was cheap price
for the horrible thing as you said.”
“ We don’t
want to bargain for that horrible thing, since we afraid about; We believed it
could have being angry to us, if we bargain.”
“ OK, thank
you!
Now pay me! “
“ We are
sorry again, that we don’t have money for time being, but later on we will pay!
We really
needed this thing. Please believe us! “
Both of Dewi
kept silent for a while; They knew
already that the people become poor because of war. Even famine would have threatened in future.
After a while
Dewi Wahita says, “ Keep Yellow Bludgeon in this HQ! But don’t use it in your
rebellion war. Beside you didn’t know
how to use it, you also have never heard
supplication reading for using it.”
“ How you? “
“ We also
never heard it, the same of you.”
“ If so, we
didn’t need this thing! So, you can take
it away! “
One of
rebellion soldier says, “ Hi Dewi Wahita, I need your husband to teach us, how
to use that weapon. I believe you can
ask your husband ! “
“ Now, he
wasn’t our husband, because we have betrayed, then divorce, the same of you
all.
Even we are running
away, frightened; We are running away escaping.
Because we
are thief, thieved King’s weapon.
Good luck for
you all; So we go off! “
Dewi Wahita
and Dewi Puyengan seems have panicky emotion; They must run away, immediately.
“ Please
don’t you go so fast; We need talking and discussing, since you are my friends
in the group of rebel; That we are.”
Dewi Wahita
and Dewi Puyengan cancel their departing to go.
“ So what can
we do for you? “
Kebo Tanak
says, “ We just want to know, what news from The Palace? How The King? “
“ I imagine that The King must have been
shocking, when he knew that his weapon has gone, be stolen.
Therefore, you
can attack The Palace now! Because the
horrible weapon, has dissapeared in King’s table.
you could
able to reach the winner state, with easy manner in this war.
Believe
me! That King Menak Jinggo was just a
weak man, without divine power, now!
Kebo Tanak
surprises; He stared Dewi Wahita and Dewi Puyengan.
After a while
he asks, “ Are you Blambangan Citizen?
If so, you are our hero in our Kingdom.
But I am not sure; May be I am wrong.”
“ Yes you
wrong, because we are Majapahit soldier!
But believe
us, that we looked after Blambangan Kingdom.
People of
Majapahit would be happy, if Blambangan people would happy too.”
Suddenly,
Yellow Bludgeon moving, dropped on to floor.
It’s still moving , as if alive
thing. Everybody surprise to see that
event. Even somebody run away and
shouted, “ “satan! saran ! satan! “
We must
remember when King Menak Jinggo said, “
It’s pity, the thief will suffer calamitous, because that thing was not mine,
but satan’s.”
Actually, Rojo
Langit and his troopers have come back, but hidden, can’t be seen.
He tried to
occupy the weapon as usual; Therefore Yellow Bludgeon moving.
Rojo Langit
wants to bring it back to King Menak Jinggo.
Rojo still
trying to occupy Yellow Bludgeon. He
tried to use that weapon, but seems it disorder.
Actually, God
of Wisnu has protected and locked that weapon, for it make can’t be used again; What effort Rojo Langit
will do, it remain useless.
Now, Yellow
Bludgeon can fly, one metter from the floor; But it dropped again.
It produced
sound likes thunder sound, but just soft of sound.
Every body at
there frightening and panic state.
Kebo Tanak
asked his soldier, making the room empty; Then he locked the door’s room.
He warned not
to enter that room!
Dewi Wahita
looks pale, frightening. She didn’t suppose
it could make terrible problem. She said
sorry for making the HQ chaos.
The HQ trully
chaos! Every soldier didn’t forget, how
their belove King, has been killed, by that horrible weapon. Therefore they really
frightened.
Chapter 13
Queen Ratu
Kencana Wungu command the Army, to attack Blambangan Kingdom, and kill King
Menak Jinggo as well. Damar Wulan will
lead the Army.
Queen says to
Damar Wulan,” You have your task; to bring head of King Menak Jinggo infront of
me. Make Blambangan to become our new
territory.”
“ I will do
your order, your Majesty! “
“ Good luck
to all of you! “
Damar Wulan
led three thousand soldiers, Patih Lohgender without his sons, and many penyewu
as military staffs. That was the third
war between Majapahit against Blambangan.
Damar
command, “ Army, go ! “
Some people
of Majapahit regreting, how Bambang Menak the hero, could becoming betrayer, even enemy. The other said, that was politics, that
sometimes we didn’t understand, what was the problem?
No, no, no
that because of woman; I know what was the reason! It was lust problem!
It have been correlated
with pretty woman! Exactly!
The other
said.
Damar Wulan
didn’t forget read supplication and pray, when he was riding horse,
“ Oh God
Wisnu, please help us to fulfil my task and Kingdom’s task also;
The order of
mine, has come from a Queen of a Kingdom.
Shall I do
capitate our enemy? As The Queen order?
I knew it was
sin, because The King have surrendered, as you said.
Please
forgive me, if it was a sin
I knew that
you will give us the other option of you
So it would
become nice event, for us and for our enemy too.
That option,
then would become strategy of war, that you have decided
That strategy
would become more powerful than that of ours, even all of human.
Please guide
us for we could do every effort be parallel with your decision.
You’ve already known, that we must obey upon you,
and obey to everything you decided.
Thank you
God! “
The Majapahit
Army have reached border of Blambangan Kingdom.
It was dense
forest, no body at there. Just wild
animal, in which it didn’t care of war
Suddenly,
everybody heard scream of woman, “ Help!
Help! Help! “
Then the
military troopers stopped their walking.
Damar gave his
command to five soldiers, looking for the sources of sound.
There was a
human body lied at bank of river; seems he or she tried to drink; That was the
sources of sound.
A woman
founding as source of sound; She has been tortured. There some wound got bleeding on her head,
body, leg and hands. She was a pity
woman.
What was the
reason? Perhaps she was the victims of
war that Blambangan soldiers did torture to this woman.
Damar
thought, “ This site was not battle field, then this woman was not war victims,
but perhaps she has been tortured by her husbad.”
“ Hi
woman! What have happened? What hit on
you? How you get wounded? “
“ My husband
has tortured on me; Because I fight against Blambangan Kingdom.”
“ Who your
husband is? “
“ King Menak
Jinggo.”
“ Dewi
Wahita! Are you?
I should have
known you, but I can’t, because of your face damage. “
“ Yes I am
your lover! I am Dewi Wahita.
Did you still
love me, hi Damar Wulan? “
“ Ofcourse I
did, darling.
I love you.“
“ Oh God,...
oh Damar, thank you that you found me, otherwise I could die at this site.”
Dewi Wahita
can’t be known, because her face damage with so many wound that she looks
terrible. It seems her husband has
tortured on her face, for making her become ugly.”
Then
everybody bussy to help Dewi Wahita.
Damar asks
again, “ Where have been Dewi Puyengan now? “
“ she run
away, since King Menak Jinggo run after her.
I don’t know where is she now!
Please help
her! Hi my dear Damar.”
“ Yes I will
! “
Damar Wulan
gave another command to look for Dewi Puyengan.
There sound
of whistle from above; Everybody saw a woman on top of a tree. It seems she climb a tree hor hiding. She has successfully to hide. While King
Menak Jinggo didn’t see her. Then The
King went away.
Damar gave
another command, “ Find King Menak Jinggo!
I think, he wasn’t so far yet.
Kill him! “
Damar Wulan
got anger, because of face damage of his lover; It has been tortured by King
Menak Jinggo. Damar forgot about sin,
that forbid to give death punisment to enemy who has surrender. He thought,“ Infact, The King never have
surrendered, so I have to kill him”
Thanks God,
that Dewi Puyengan has save condition, without wounded.
Damar asks
Dewi Wahita, “ Why The King got anger to you? He should love you as a husband.”
“ Because we
stole Yellow Bludgeon.”
“ What for? “
“ It was our
strategy to win this war,isn’t it? “
“ Yes you
right, so I wanna say thank you to you all.”
“ Beside,we
need money. You must know, that
Blambangan people become poor, because of war.
Included The Royal Family, that’s we are!
So, we think
that we could sell Yellow Bludgeon, for making money.
We brought
that thing to the buyer, whose name Kebo Tanak
He needed
Yellow Bludgeon as a weapon, because he was chief of rebel against their King.
Seems to us,
that Rojo Langit the satan, come back again; As we have seen that the weapon
can moving, even can fly by itself. Then
every rebel at that HQ, becoming uproar.
They have bad experience about that thing when they attack
Majapahit. Yellow Bludgeon can be able to
crush many soldiers as well as their beloved King.
We left the
weapon behind. Put it in a room of rebellion HQ, because of afraid.
King Menak
Jinggo and his troopers have been looking for us, since he lost his
weapon. Persumably he knew that we have stolen
it.
So, we run
away, go back to Majapahit as soon as possible.
I chose the
dense forest at this border, but The King could find us in this forest. I have been caught by him; Then he tortured
on me, but he didn’t want to kill me, just want me to become ugly woman.
I want to ask
again , did you still love me? Hi Damar Wulan? “
Seems she
cries with many tears drop from her eyes.
“ Of course,
I still love you
You are still
Dewi Wahita, when we met for the first time..”
“ Thank you
Damar! “
“ I wonder.
Why your husband was so angry that he has to torture on you, like this? “
“ Perhaps,
Rojo Langit the satan, has enterd into his body. By then his character has changed, becoming unrighteous; He was no more King Menak Jinggo in reality.”
“ Right! What I think was the same of you. The satan come back again. So,... the war would be happened between
Majapahit against Rojo Langit and his troopers, not Blambangan; But The King, remain our enemy, because he has
allied with satan.
Hi. Menak
Jinggo ! You have never surrendered as
God Wisnu said. Then I have to do
punishment on you, death penalty!
God! I ask you your permit about
it!
Hi Rojo
Langit! If you want to fight us, then
you must also fight against God of Wisnu.
Because we have allied with God of Wisnu.
You and the
entire of your troopers will go into hell.
That must be happened, because it has been wisdom of God.
Remember!, What
ever you have done, hell will be ending
site of yours, actually! “
Every
soldiers at there heard what Damar Wulan warned; They surprises and worry about God wisdom.
One of them
asks Damar, “ Sir, must I go into hell? Eventhough I don’t want to? “
Damar Wulan
answers, “ Yes you must, If you have allied with satan, like King Menak Jinggo
did.”
“ Sir,
believe me, that satan was really my enemy; I will fight the satan, as hard as
I could. But he invisible. Please help me Sir, to avoid satan, and to
fight satan! “
“ Now we,
together will fight against satan!
Not just fight,
but even a war against Rojo Langit and
his troopers.
Are you
ready?
You don’t
have to worry, because God of Wisnu will protect on us.
I know
you! You got frightening, because you
didn’t know how to kill satan in this war.
The important
matter of you, please don’t ally with satan; Reject satan troopers who will persuade
you, then enter into your body.
You ask me,
how?
Please be politeness, truth,honestly,wise,
prudent, righteous and also being good character of yours.”
“ Thank you
Sir! “
Damar Wulan
says, “ If Menak Jinggo didn’t find, then we would have to go to The Palace of
Blambangan. Perhaps he was at there now. Our task was, to defeat and catch Menak Jinggo..
Majapahit soldiers, let us go! “
The Army were
going in line toward The Palace.
The Palace
have been protected by many Blambangan soldiers.
Because they
have known that mob of rebellion would have come soon. The rebellion were led by Kebo Tanak. The
eldest brother of King Prabu Kebo Mancruet.
Not so long,
King Menak Jinggo appeared at front Palace.
He hold Yellow Bludgeon.
Mean while
Kebo Tanak and his armies has come near The Palace.
King Menak
Jinggo made Kebo Tanak fear, since The King hold Yellow Bludgeon.
Kebo Tanak
wonder, he asks, “ Why he hold those weapon?
Yellow Bludgeon should have been in a room of our HQ, but now it was in
King’s hand, why? Who have given that
thing to King of our enemy? I angry and
disappointed about Yellow Bludgeon, somebody of us must be betrayer.”
The staffs
denied, “ No one of us betray by given that weapon to The King. Perhaps Yellow Bludgeon could fly, moved by
itself to The King.”
Kebo Tanak
shakes his head, “ So, it is really satan, then we will fight against satan.”
One of his
spy soldier report, “ Sir! I wonder concerning the troopers of King; It seems
they aren’t human, but satan! I saw they
got tail at behind, hidden in their trosers.
They have never talking, but kept silent. Their face looks horrible; could make afraid
to every one.”
Kebo Tanak
got pale face, hearing that reportation.
His entire soldiers moved slowly going back; Seems they want to run away, because of
afraid.
Kebo Tanak
command, “ Soldiers keep staying in your line!
Don’t be afraid! “
Kebo Tanak
saw many King’s troopers, stood up in line behind The King. Their amount may be five thousand personal
but may be more. Unbelieveable! How Blambangan man wants to be a soldier for
a stranger like Bambang Menak? Impossible!
However, we
knew already, that they are not human, but they are satan troopers.
Mean while
Damar Wulan has the same experience with Kebo Tanak.
But he
discussed that problem with God of Wisnu in his heart, immediately.
“ Hi
God! We really will make war against
Rojo Langit and his troppers. You have
known that I never do a war against satan, like this event.
So, please
teach me, how to kill a satan? “
God of Wisnu
answers, “ I know about you!
You just lift
your right hand, with palm side facing to the enemy, then say, “ Hi satan,
peace for all of you! Or you will death, then go into the hell! “
If they resist
not to make peace, then my turn action will hit to them, making them
dieing. They will die at sudden, without
screaming.”
King Menak
Jinggo move for ward; He swung his weapon to left and right.
But it didn’t
produce thunder sound.
The King’s
face didn’t change, but it still normal.
That signing disorder of the weapon; It really didn’t work as
usual.
Because God
has locked it.
Damar Wulan
also went for ward, nearing his opponent.
Damar believed that he would save, since Yellow Bludgeon didn’t work.
On the other
hand, Satan Rojo Langit got fear.
Rojo Langit
hopped that Damar Wulan would have becoming afraid by seeing Yellow Bludgeon,
but in fact he didn’t.
Damar lift
his hand, then say, “ Hi satan! Peace for all of you! Peace for all of you! Peace for all of you! Unless you will die, then go into the hell!
Suddenly King
Menak Jinggo fell down, genuflect position.
Then he screamed, “ I will take your offering, for making peace. Now I will go off ! “
After that, The
King collapsed, but still alive. His
Yellow Bludgeon disappear at sudden.
The King has
surrendered now, as God has said.
Mean while, almost
satan troopers run away, going into the sky then disappear.
They have
gone with peace option.
Few of them,
death. Really die, likes human dead
body. This group want to resist and will
fight against Damar, but God has acted immediately, to make them dieing.
Damar prays
and talk with God of Wisnu,
“ Thank you
God. So, what can I do with King Menak
Jinggo? Shall I do capitate, then it
would be given to our Queen? “
God of Wisnu
says, “ No! Please don’t do that!
Bring him
alive infront The Queen.
Then, your
acting would have made you as a wise man.
Remember that
you are the man who has been allowed to near God, myself. So you must being wise in every decision of yours. Even more, you would be a King of Majapahit
in next future.”
“ Oh God,
could I be a King? I think I am not appropriate to be a King.
Please guide
me! Make my decision as a King would
have being parallel with your wisdom, please, don’t make it crossing your
wisdom.”
“ You can!
You must know
that you just a puppet of comedy; I am the Mastermind of that comedy.
The most
important puppet that you have to know, was Rojo Langit and his troopers.
While King Menak Jinggo was just a little
puppet in my Comedy.
The important
question about Rojo Langit along with his troopers is, where does they go? What would they do as his strategy to fight
against human? “
“ Yes I want
to know, what strategy that he and his troopers next?
Shall they
strike on us? “
“ That was
good question of you.
He wants to
make people in The World being unhappy.
Unhappy was
mean, sadness, worry, depressed, disappointed, anger, and also chaotic.
Rojo Langit
will make war in every where; They
triggered the politics leader’s anger to become open war and chaos as well.
They come to influence
into human brain of leader, for making deceit, betrayed, corrupt, steal, as
well as unwise act.
The satan
could have been entering into your mind, then make your wisdom would have
becoming not parallel, not equal with same level, with God’s wisdom; That was
unwise act.
Therefore war
against Rojo Langit will never ending.
Then we must build many prison for whom has cheated as corrupt, drug,
steal, betray and so many unwise acting.
That’s why
Rojo Langit has gone fast, leaving King Menak Jinggo’s body; Without saying surrender. Yes, he really didn’t want to
surrender.
“ Thank you
God! “
Then the war
was over. That was the very fast of war.
But the war
would be continued, even would be forever.
The dead body
as victim of war, was just satan.
Dead body of
satan, has tail at behind.
Not so long
King Menak Jinggo conscious and can talk.
Damar Wulan
approached him and says, “ You must surrender, or we kill you! “
The King
says,
“ I
surrendered! Please don’t kill me!
Can I go now?
“
“ Go? No, you can’t!
You will be
detained and go into jail.
Then you will
face Queen Kencana Wungu.”
“ Please
don’t! I feel shame.”
“ If so, then
you will die be capitated.“
King Menak
Jinggo kept silent for a long times.
Finnaly, He
says, “ I would rather not to receive both of those matter. But I will
surrendered and being loyalty people of Majapahit Kingdom.
Please
remember, that I have ever be a hero of Majapahit, winning war against
Blambangan. Please reckon my service to
our Kingdom.”
“ Ofcourse we
have to remember your service.
But on the
other hand, you have done many mistakes that everybody got suffer, because you
have your ally, that was Rojo Langit the satan.”
Suddenly, an
ugly woman shouted to King Menak Jinggo, “ Yes that you are! The man that have tortured on my face, then
make me becoming an ugly woman.
Do you feel
satisfied? “
That woman is
Dewi Wahita.
“ No, no, no
you are wrong sweet heart! Rojo Langit
must be blamed, that he has tortured on you, not me. Remember, I am your husband, that always
love you.
Even I didn’t
know every act of mine. What ever I have
done, it must be Rojo Langit the satan, who has done every mistake. So please don’t accuse on me, but Rojo Langit!
“
Damar Wulan
says, “ Easy going to plead every
mistakes of yours to blamed Rojo Langit. Then every hoodlum in Majapahit will follow you, for saying the same way of you, ‘ Rojo Langit must be
blamed, not me’.
Now listen to
me, you will face The Queen of Majapahit Kingdom, then you will have been judged. You will face wise judgement.”
Not so long,
Kebo Tanak came approached Damar Wulan, “ Hi Commander Army of Majapahit
Kingdom! I am commander of rebellion
against King Menak Jinggo. My name is
Kebo Tanak.
Thank you for
you have helped us, accidentally.”
Damar Wulan
smiled, says, “ I help you by accident, as you said. Why you say it was by accident? ”
Kebo Tanak
says, “ We met in this place by accident, but with the same direction.
That was
reallity, but we want to make friend with all of you.
Frankly, I
can’t kill satan, as you have done.
Look! Those dead body of
satan; Those still lied on that
field. The dead bodies were satan really,
with tail on his back; They really not
human.
How could you
kill satan.?
I wonder on
you, who you any way? “
“ My name
Damar Wulan, the Commander in chief of all our armies.
Our task succesfully
has been done, that’s catch King Menak Jinggo.”
“ And also
chase the satan away, isn’t it? “
“ No, no, I
can’t kill satan, same of you; But Wisnu God.”
“ Wisnu
God? We didn’t see God Wisnu who has
helped you. I don’t want to make joke,
this war was serious event to look after our Country, you know?
Please
mention the truth! “
“ No body can
see God. God was hidden, invisible.
Do you
believe it? You must believe God! “
“ Yes I
believe God. God must have been there to help us when the war was running.
Would you
teach us, how to make ally with God, as you have done? “
“ What the
reason of you? I knew that you want to have
divine power, likes Bambang Menak. Then
you could be able to conquer Majapahit Kingdom; Likes Kebo Mancruet had done
prviously
Finnaly, you eager
to have your winning. Why not?
You have your
opportunity to win every war, because you have divine power.”
“ How did you
know what I have thought?
Yes it was
our target.”
“ God Wisnu
has told me, what ever you have in your mind.
So, I want to
ask you,why did you want to conquere Majapahit Kingdom?
There was
another question to you, did you surrender or not surrender?
If you didn’t
surrender, then we will fight again, now!
Are you ready? “
“ We are
surrender! Even we have been already
surrendered, when Bambang Menak attacked our Country. We don’t want to do war again.”
“ OK then,...You
asked me how to make ally with God, do you?
so Iwant to
mention about God to you.
Everybody in
this World, have chance could talk with God and even could have being
allied with God as long as his or her life.
Surely, you will
ask me, where is God that I could find him?
God stayed in
your heart. He stayed in his house at
your heart. But you as well as majority
people, have never realized that God have been there, for a long times.
So you ask me
again, “ What he has done? Why he didn’t say hallo to me? “
He just wait,
for a long times! He have been waitting
for you, for you want to say hallo to him.
However, He
would never say hallo to you, until you will say first. His grade was so high that he would have never
saying for the first to you, but you.
God just stay
in his house, for nothing to do.
But in reallity,
he has been waitting for you, for a long times, until you want to say hallo.
But in fact,
you always being haughty with God, by then you will never say hallo to him.
Therefore, God’s
house have been covered by dust and moss, because you forgot God.
God’s house
in your heart was a place that you will never known, more even it was a place
that would never have been visited by you, if you forgot about God.
So, you will
ask me, How to say hallo for the first time to God?
God’s house
in your heart was poor, because it has been covered by dust ( that was sign of
sin of you); also covered by moss ( that was sign of haughty of you ). Even, God’s house can’t be seen by you,
because of dust. You can’t find it’s
door or window; By then you can’t find it,
even you can’t enter into his house.
How can you
say hallo to God? Even you can’t finding
his house?
So, you will
say again, “ I want to meet God and want to talk with God.”
That willing
of you, would be good of you; It was the first step toward God’ house in your
heart.
Then you have chance nearing God. That was
mean your wisdom was equal at the same level with God’s wisdom.
Then you
would have travelled going to God’s house in your heart. But the road wasn’t so easy; There was so many obstacle stucking on your
way. Then your journey would be a long
journey to reach God’s house.
You must
being a holy person, that you must becoming a humble person, have thrown every
mistake or sin of you, has been asking apologize to God as well. All of that was sign that you have reached
God’s house.
Finally, the last step of yours, clean God’s house,
until you can find it’s door and window.
You ask me,
can I going into?
Hoping God (
not me) would have said, come in with pleasure!
Yes you can! Eventhough
it would have becoming a long journey in
your living.
At the last
times of your struggling for meeting God, finally, you could be able to muse or holy meditate upon God. Then you have found God, talked directly with
God as well.
So good luck
for you! ”
Kebo Tanak kept
silent. He muse, think about words of
Damar Wulan in his heart.
Finnaly he
says, “ Hi Damar Wulan, thank you so much for everything you said; But I realized that I am just an old
man. Then I can’t make a long journey to
reach God’s house in my heart. What do you think? “
“ No problem
with you.
Remember,
that your willing ( only willing) to meet God, was wonderful wisdom of you.
That it would
become equal at the same level with God’s wisdom.
So,....That
was the first step of your journey.
There is
distance between you and God; That was between your brain to your heart.
Eventhough,
it’s not so far, but we have difficulty to reach the destination; The place of God’S staying, God’s house in your heart.
Majority of
people don’t want to move his soul for going out, off from their brain; What
else, want their soul to go down into his heart. Why they?
Because of they love beautiful World; They love their riches. And also they
feel haughty for asking apologize to God.
More even, they denied for knowing God. They say, it was just unreal matter.
So, we would be better to enjoy our satisfaction
of life and beautiful World! Because It’s the real matter!”
Kebo Tanak
staring Damar, then asks, “ Are you a Priest of Hindu religy? “
“ No, I am
not! “
“ Why you
talking about religy matter?
As I know, you
are Commander in Chief of Majapahit Army.“
Damar Wulan
kept silent for a while.
Finnaly he
says,
“ I wonder with
myself also. The same of you!
It was God as
Mastermind of the scenario of World Comedy;
The comedy of
ours, in which we are playing as puppet
on stage of World.
Then we are just
the puppet of that commedy.
And The World
was stage, that we have been playing as puppet of a comedy, up until now.
In God’s
story, there was a bigwig, name Rojo Langit the satan, who will occupy The
World. I have my role in that story as
Commander of Majapahit Army, to destroy Rojo Langit the satan, as well as his
entire troopers.
But my task
wasn’t success, because Rojo Langit didn’t want to surrender. Rojo Langit as well as his troopers can be escaping then go run away for their freedom.
Just a few of
them could be killed by God.
Therefore, my
task will continued. We call it The Immortal War.
Then our Great Grandson have to fight against
satan, forever.
However, few of our Grandson, would have allied with
satan, as Bambang Menak did.
We just
regret them.
Rojo Langit have
given command, “ Hi my troopers! You can be able to enter into human brain, for
influencing him to do bad acting; Particularly our target was the funcionary of
Kingdom.
Then you can make
The Kingdom becoming chaos; You can make them would have bad habit to do
corrupt, deceit, betray as well; Then
making their moral becoming damage.
I want to see
Majapahit Kingdom collapse then ruin. As well as every Country in future.
Even I want
to see, their Great Grandson and Daughter, would becoming have poor living and
live as beggar!”
Damar Wulan
continued his saying, “ You must know that this war not yet finish. Would be
continued, even may forever.
So, I want to
ask you and all the Community in Nusantar, let us be united in strong power of
political will, to fight against Rojo Langit and his troopers.
Will you?
Remember that
they can’t be seen, but we can feel the result of their working.”
Kebo Tanak
has idea, “ Damar! If I were God Wisnu,
then I would have killed Rojo Langit along with his entire troopers. So, everything would be OK, no problem at
all!
As you said,
God Wisnu Almighty has power, that no one can ressist his wisdom; Even all of
Universe must obey. “
Damar Wulan
surprises hearing idea of his friend; He though, “ Kebo Tanak right! Probably
God Wisnu could change his wisdom by himself? Shall he?
Then the story
of comedy also could have been changed, because of The Mastermind has changed
the current of his story?
You can
imagine, how Rojo Langit the satan, along with entire his troopers would have
been disappeared in The World? So, The
World would have become nice and peace.
We would have
never needed the law, because no more thief, murderer, hoodlum and every person
who will do mistake against law.
We didn’t
need soldiers to make war.
And... we
didn’t need a King who wants to give punishment.
And so on, and
so on!
But it could
be sin to think about God!
Please Damar,
don’t you think so far, that could make God angry to you!
Remember! God
would have’nt anger to you!”
After kept
silent for a while, Damar says again,
“ You right
Kebo! Rojo Langit was also puppet in
this comedy. So, The Mastermind can pick
them up, then put it into box; That is mean their role would have finished.
Then no problem at all.
However, the
comedy also would be ending, no more show, or we say The End.
So, ... This
World also would have been ended!
But
please! I don’t think so!
Seems to me,
God Wisnu by his wisdom, wants to continue the comedy show.
It was the
secret of Mastermind!
Seems he
wants to make the ‘audience’ could be glad by watching his show on stage of World. By then, He don’t want to kill Rojo Langit
along with his troopers.
Therefore, we
have to continue our struggling as puppet against other puppet, the satan of
Rojo Langit; Seems to me, God would be
happy and enjoy by then.
Please
God! Don’t you angry to me! I knew that you are not human, even the dirty
human likes me! No one can be able to
guess you being same as a human; Wheter you can feel enjoy and happy..... I
knew, I do wrong, for guessing about
you.
Please
forgive me!
So, .... Rojo
Langit still be needed by God Wisnu.
That was the
secret of God, The Mastermind.”
Kebo Tanak
kept silent for a while;
How he hate
satan, who has killed his brother, King Kebo Mancruet.
“ How to fight against satan? Hi Damar?
Believe me,
that I want to be in your line as soldiers to make war against satan! ”
Damar
answers, “ I have mention it to you, how
to fight against satan!
If you would
have becoming a holy person, as I told, then you would be a good man.
But it’s not
necessary for you! But please,.....
You just
being a honest person, that would be enough!
You just have
good character that would be enough! “
Chapter 14
Kebo Tanak
has sign a peace of paper, saying surrender to Majapahit Kingdom. Kebo said that he wants be in line as soldier
to make war against Rojo Langit the satan.
It was serious willing of chief of Blambangan Community, not a joke.
We realized
that Community of Blambangan have bad
experience with exelent weapon, name Yellow Bludgeon. It had killed their King,
King Prabu Kebo Mancruet. Eventhough it can’t moving as a live thing, but they
believe it’s alive, because the satan of Rojo Langit was in there. Rojo Langit the satan was enemy number one of
Community Blambangan.
More even
they have seen, the real dead body of satan; The satan troopers of King Menak
Jinggo. Itwas real dead body, but with
tail on their back.
Majapahit
Army back home with Bambang Menak or King Menak Jinggo as war captive of
theirs. Damar Wulan along with Dewi
Wahita and Dewi Puyengan led the Army;
Everybody happy to be the winner in the fast war.
The important
thing, was no victim, except Dewi Wahita.
People have been waitting Damar Wulan as well
as his armies for a long times, at edge of road toward The Palace of Trowulan.
Now, Damar Wulan
was new warrior of Majapahit Kingdom.
People
talking about Damar Wulan in every where and every time. That was hot-news concerning Damar Wulan. How
he so easy to defeat King Menak Jinggo.
So, that war becoming the fastest war in The World. He just lift his right hand, then King Menak
Jinggo collapsed; All his troopers run away and few death.
He has divine
power more exelent than that Bambang Menak, isn’t it?
No, no, no!
But It was
God of Wisnu, who has chase Rojo Langit away, not Damar!
Surprise, a
pretty woman run into armies line, then she stopped Damar’s horse.
Damar turn
down, approached the pretty lady then hugged and kissed her, “ I love you
Anjasmara “ As if Damar has already
known, that the lady will come, to meet him.
Actualy, yes he has known that the lady will come, because
God has told him, previously.
Anjasmara hugged Damar passionately.
Damar lift
her body up. Put her on back of his
horse, then she sit behind Damar.
Dewi Wahita
surprise and shock, she asks with loud voice, “ Hi, who you? “
“ I am
Anjasmara, Damar’s lover. And who you? “
“ I am Dewi
Wahita, the same of you, Damar’s lover.”
Anjasmara
asks furiously, “ What ? What you say
? You are Damar’s lover?
I wonder
about you! “
“ Hi, hi, hi
me too, I am Dewi Puyengan, also Damar’s lover.”
Everybody
looks at Damar Wulan. Anjasmara looks unhappy with Damar Wulan.
Damar says
calm, “ I declared to all of you, that you are my lover. I would have married all of you! You would becoming my wives.
You are the
three pretty girls of my mine.”
“ So, I would
become the first wife! “ Anjasmara says.
“ I am the
second wife“ Dewi Wahita says.
“ I am the
third wife” Dewi Puyengan says.
Damar Wulan
says again, “ Sorry I forgot that my wife would be four, The last one, was Kencana Wungu.”
Dewi Puyengan
asks, “ That name was our Queen’s; Was she a Queen? “
“ Percisely,
yes she was.”
Dewi Puyengan
can’t believe it, “ C’mon Damar! Dan’t
be kidding on me! “
Anjasmara
says, “ Please don’t make joke. If so, you
have to ask the people of Majapahit.
Will they were agree or disagree?
It was not easy to become a husband of a Queen, more even The Queen of
Majapahit Kingdom.”
Damar Wulan
answers, “ Yes I knew about that!
I am not
suppose would be conceited in front of you!
You must
remember that I just a dirty labor in your home, how could I be conceited?
But in fact,
The Queen herself has asked me! For me could be her husband.”
“ Damar! ....
Please don’t be haughty.” The three girls says contemporaneous.
“ Listen to
me!
That was a
long story that I have to marry you all, the four pretty women. Not just a story but even Kingdom’s task upon
me. We knew that all of us have worked
hard to win this war. The war against
satan, not human.
I must do
appreciate to our woman soldier, Dewi Wahita.
She was the victim of that war, so her face has become damage. She has
being an ugly woman. But I still love
her.
Not just
Wahita, but both of you, including Dewi Puyengan, has given their sacrifices by
marrying King Menak Jinggo. They have
given the important news concerning secret of theYellow Bludgeon and Rojo
Langit the satan. The secret was, King Menak Jinggo has allied with satan, Rojo
Langit; The other secret, Yellow
Bludgeon was satan possesion.
That news
have made us realized that we have to make war against satan, not human.
Thank you
God, that you have guided and helpped us getting the winner in this war.
We say also,
thank you to you God, that you guided us, to make us be united in love, in one happy family.
Frankly, I am
not suppose that it could be happened; Everything could have happened as your
wisdom on us. Again we want say thank
you, God.
You are God
of Wisnu.
Now we are
happy! “
Anjasmara
asks again,“ What’s that mean? I didn’t
understand, how you want to marry a Queen, Queen of ours? “
“ I don’t
want! But she!
If you didn’t
believe me, then we can prove it, what I said, when we would have faced The
Queen in her Palace, The Palace of Trowulan.
OK ? “
Chapter 15
Queen Kencana
Wungu was happy, since she has heard the news that Damar Wulan becoming the winner in the war against Blambangan. But that news was not complet. She needed Damar herself could have mentioned
it to her.
She has
becoming more happy,since she knew Damar Wulan almost nearing The Gate of
Palace. How could she becoming happy? Because
of love. She love Damar Wulan, what ever
he was. Eventhough Damar has already
three girls as his lovers, but she don’t mind.
A guide
soldier of The Gate report,“ Your Majesty,
Damar Wulan and staffs will come soon.”
“ I’ll be waitting him with pleasure.”
Not so long,
Damar, Anjasmara, Dewi Wahita, Dewi Puyengan as well, come infront The
Throne. The four warriors sit with cross-leg
position, united their palm hands.
Damar says, “
Your Majesty! We just have done your
order successfully; That was catching King Menak Jinggo,The King of Blambangan
Kingdom.
Now,The King
has been detained in prison, alive.
We also have
chased Rojo Langit the satan as well as his troopers away.
Blambangan ‘s
chief Community has surrendered, that he has signed in a piece of paper.
That’s all of
my reportation.”
The Queen
says to ladies, “ Hi Ladies, do you want to say something to me?
Are you happy
by your winning?
Hi my women
warrior? “
Dewi Wahita
says, “ Your Majesty, thank you so much for we could have chance to speak to
you directly. Yes we are happy, the same
as all people of Majapahit, included you, my Queen. But I can’t tell you in detai, how the war
has been done successfully, because our enemies were satan. They were hidden, can’t be seen.
We worry that
you can’t believe us.”
The Queen
says, “ I just want to make comment about your unique war. It was really unique war that have ever
happened in This World, how human has fought against satan, in the real
war? I almost wont to believe that
event.
Hi Damar can
you mention it to me? “
“ I want to say to you, Your Highness, that
the war still has been running, up until now.
Then you asks
me, where?
I said, in
your Kingdom, Majapahit Kingdom, included also all The Kingdoms in Nusantara.
Rojo Langit
the satan has given command to his entire troopers, “ You can make The Kingdom
would becoming collapse then ruin, by influencing every King and his staffs to
do corrupt, deceit and betray as well.”
The Queen
says, “ I got nauseated by your word hi Damar!
Believe
me! That I love my Country, my people
and all of you.
How can I, as
your Queen would do corrupt, deceit and betray? “
Damar
answers, “ I asked appologized to you, that I have to say, ‘Yes you can ......!’
But how? You
can betray your own Kingdom?
You can ask
Rojo Langit the satan directly !
Remember! You
have your probability could change your good character to become bad character.
Then you
would becoming a bad Queen.
Then you will
ask me, how?
Satan said,
that they could be able to enter and go into your brain. Then they can influence you to do bad act
against your own Country.
Remember, that
satan can’t be seen. He can persuade on
you, but you never realized it.”
The Queen
says, “ Thank you Priest! In other side
of you, you are really a Priest of Hindu Religy, so I call you now as a Priest.
Ok the
meeting was over, but you Damar,please don’t go away, I want to talk with you!
“
“ Before we
go, will you make a special acknowledgement to Dewi Wahita.
Look at her
face, ... now she has become an ugly woman, because her face damage.
She was the
victim of war, that she has been tortured by King Menak Jinggo.”
“ Really ? “
The Queen
going down from her Throne, approached Dewi, then she hugged Dewi Wahita,
passionately. “ Oh my woman
soldier! Your sacrifice for your Country,
will never forget . The Kingdom will
give beautiful gift to you, a gift for your sacrifice.”
I will give
hard punishement to those bastard King!
Do capitate!
“
“ Please
don’t do that, before we judge him.”
“ Yes you
right. ”
Dewi Wahita
says, “ Thank you Your Majesty! Now we
will go off.
I want to say
thank you to you too, my lover, Damar! “
Damar says to
his three lover, “ Please don’t go! Wait
for a moment, since The Queen will ask me something important.”
Dewi Wahita
got jealous; She thought, “ He right! Now,
he wants to prove what he said, that The Queen really love him! I got jealous now! “
Anjasmara
says, “ Can I be present in your meeting, Your Majesty? Believe me that I don’t want to divulge every
secret news or secret matter of you.”
The Queen
asks, “ What was your interest? “
“ Nothing ! “
“ We want to
discuss personal matter, between both of us.
Please wait here! “
The three
lover got jealous now. They realized that Damar Wulan will make love with Queen
Kencana Wungu. But, they can do
nothing, just wait.
Then the
three women gathering, and discussing about their fate.
Dewi Wahita
talks first, “ We should make The Queen have known, that we are the lover of
Damar Wulan. I guessed, Queen have never
known, about it.”
Anjasmara
says, “ I guessed Damar would have told The Queen, more worst, that we are just
his military staffs. Therefore, The
Queen becoming happy, since she has no competitor.”
The three
lover kept silent, in sadness emotion; How Damar becoming object of the
struggle.
At last Dewi
Puyengan says, “ We hope, they just talking about Kingdom, no more. They just discussing concern punishment of
King Menak Jinggo.”
After the
ladies have waited one hour, Damar Wulan as well as The Queen appeared in front
of them.
The Queen
says, “ I knew that you got jealous by our secret meeting. I have alredy known you, that you are the
three lover of Damar Wulan, Right? ”
“ Yes we are,
Your Majesty.” Dewi Wahita answered,
happy.
“ So, ....
You must know! ..... And you must obey what ever I will say, because I am Your
Queen. Do you understand? “
Anjasmara
answer, “ Yes we do! “
Now, the
three lover got tension with pale face;
Seems there would be something bad!
The room
become quiet for a moment.
Dewi Wahita
not being patient; She wants to know.
She asks, “ So what ... ? “
The Queen
looks angry, no smiling faces, but furious face.
After a while
she says, : I will be the fourth wife of Damar’s.”
The room
become more quiet. The three lover looks
at each other, “ What? It was an awkward decision of a Queen.
So, ... Damar
Wulan must be blamed.
Damar has far
to much; It was an excessive result of Damar.”
“ Please
don’t do, Your Majesty!
Please take
him! Then we will retreat, leaving him and say good bye to Damar! “
“ I am The
Queen of yours; Please obey your Queen.
We have
discussed with Damar; Then we have reached the conclussion that Damar was a man
who would be appropriate as a King of Majapahit Kingdom, and also be my husband.
Damar has
mentioned to me, that he already have three lovers. That’s all of you.
But I don’t
mind about that!
So, I want to
welcome you all! Be The Royal Family of
Majapahit Kingdom.”
Anjasmara
says, “ Thank you Your Majesty.
You have to
know, that I am just a common people of you.
For time
being, I will do my natural habit as common people.
Forgive me
that I can’t be changing to be Royal Family immediately.”
“ Yes you
can! “
Damar Wulan
says to his lovers, included Kencna Wungu.
“ Listen to
me! I love you all!
I will marry
all of you, soon.!
Clossing
Damar Wulan
have married the four wives. The wedding
party has been resembled in Singosari Town.
The party was merry, because it’s unique; How a man could marry four women.?
But it would
be difference than that King Raden Wijaya. Damar Wulan married with four women in
difference family, but King Raden Wijaya married with four women in one family; That
The Royal Family of King Kertanegara.
Not solong,
Damar Wulan has been inaugurated as a King, with Titled King Prabu
Mertawijaya. The King of Majapahit
Kingdom.
