"Do Raka Caraka's parents know who Arya Santanu is? Or do they only know that there is a child stranded on the beach?" Aji Sangkala asked Eyang Sinto Aji again."At that time Arya Santanu's body washed up on the beach. He was wearing royal clothes from Swarnadwipa. There was a crown that he kept holding in his left hand so that his hand was blistered." Eyang Sinto Aji turned to the spirit of Aji Sangkala.Hearing Eyang Sinto Aji's words, Adityawarman began to find a bright spot. He was convinced that Arya Santanu was his missing brother. "Really?! He's wearing the royal clothes of Swarnadwipa? And there's his crown too?" Adityawarman was ecstatic."Unfortunately, when asked by the people who found him, the boy did not recognize who he was. He forgot his true identity. As a result, he was given a new name as Arya Santanu." Eyang Sinto Aji explained again. "This means that something made him drift in the ocean or he escaped from the ship
The energy emitted by Arya Santanu began to fade. Aji Sangkala and Prince Adityawarman had returned from Arya Santanu's subconscious. Adityawarman immediately gasped in shock. He felt happy, but also sad to know that his younger brother had taken such a path in life. The crown created from Arya Santanu's energy gradually disappeared. The spirits of Aji Sangkala and Asura held the young man's body from falling backwards. Arya Santanu's vision was still wavering, he tried to hold his own body by keeping his feet balanced. "Are you fully conscious?" Aji Sangkala's spirit asked."Arya, are you okay?" Asura was very worried about his friend.Arya Santanu's eyes were fixed on Ki Janggan Nayantaka. The young man bowed his head and hesitated to ask. Inside his chest were several questions and frustrations. He did not know which one to vent first. "Ki Janggan Nayantaka, is there anything you want to tell me?" Arya Santanu turned to the old herm
Aji Sangkala's spirit dripped Arya Santanu's blood onto his bones. Ki Janggan Nayantaka also scraped his hands and dripped his blood onto the bones. After both of them finished. Ki Janggan Nayantaka struck his staff. He prayed that Aji Sangkala's spirit would return to the world. "I hope this method will work. I will also be part of the me that will rise later." Aji Sangkala's spirit prepared to sacrifice itself to pave the way for her original soul to return to the body that had become bones."Go, if we succeed, I will meet you again alive." Ki Janggan Nayantaka smiled. Aji Sangkala's spirit concentrated on changing his form into a ball of energy. Slowly his magical body turned into white smoke that coagulated and formed a ball. Elsewhere, Asura who was the former leader of the underworld felt the sky begin to change. Suddenly, black clouds quickly covered the sky. Not only that, lightning struck with a loud roar. The wind
After a long night of stormy weather, Arya Santanu's party finally arrived at the golden gates of the Swarnabhumi kingdom. The splendor of the main and largest kingdom in the land of Swarnadwipa was breathtaking. Thirty-meter-high giant walls with a thickness of eight meters layered with an iron frame and smeared with a layer of pure gold add to the impression of grandeur and elegance. Asura and Arya Santanu who saw it for the first time were astonished by the shape of the Swarnabhumi kingdom. "This kingdom is flanked by high rock cliffs. Is this the capital of the kingdom?" Arya Santanu asked."That's right. The Swarnabhumi Kingdom was deliberately established in the rock cliff area to create a natural fortress that could be utilized during an attack or war. There are several secret passages behind the rock cliffs, ranging from small alleys between the rocks, and underground passages dug towards the North and West. The concept of the shape and building
Adityawarman took them all to a golden palace on a cliff just above the capital Swarnabhumi. To get up there, ramps and hundreds of steps were made for pedestrian and chariot access. The golden palace was built using the same building techniques as building a great wall of gold. The layers of gold exposed to sunlight reflect a dazzling bias of light. It is obvious how grand and luxurious this palace is. The golden palace stands in the center, in front of which are gardens and roads surrounded by stone cliff fences. At the back there are access stairs and roads that lead to the settlement below the cliff. And there are several residences of royal officials scattered around the palace complex. "This is truly extraordinary. I am mesmerized by the beauty of this golden palace." Aji Sangkala smiled looking at the Swarnabhumi palace."No, it is only made of gold. My palace in hell is much bigger and grander." Asura teased. "No one
"That was a quote from your words when I was eight years old. We were standing on the front lawn of the palace looking at the settlement below the cliff. Your face was beaming in the twilight sunlight. What do you think, my father? Is that evidence enough to convince you that I am your son?" Arya Santanu looked into the eyes of King Swarnabhumi.King Swarnabhumi could say no more. The words he said to his eldest son at that time were his little memories that made him miss the figure of Satrio Wijayaningrat very much. Every time before going to bed his tears dripped just to remember that moment. That memory made him continue to remember the figure of his eldest son. "Those words are my words when my son and I were alone when we saw dusk coming. There was no one there. So, only I can say whether your words are true or not." King Swarnabhumi finally opened his mouth. "Then, are Arya Santanu's words true?" Adityawarman forced his father to ans
Having just opened his eyes for the first time, Arya Santanu was already transported to another place. In front of him was Aji Sangkala who stood staring at the front of the white room. Arya Santanu was confused, all he saw around him was an endless white room. He didn't even know if there was a wall dividing the room or not. "Aji Sangkala, where is this?" Arya Santanu asked. "Oh, you are in the transitional realm. This realm is between the world and the supernatural realm. Any warrior who has the knowledge to access the two worlds can definitely come to this realm. However, each warrior has different access to the transitional realm." Aji Sangkala tried to explain."Huh? I—I don't understand what you mean." Arya Santanu felt confused. "Simply put, every warrior who possesses the knowledge of internal energy has one transitional realm that can be entered to practice or meditate. A day in the training realm can be adjusted to
"Don't joke around! I don't have time to deal with this scarecrow!" Arya Santanu shouted in annoyance. The watermen charged towards Arya Santanu. They condensed water and turned it into swords. Arya Santanu, who had to concentrate with the energy in the soles of her feet, had to fight them all with her bare hands. "Damn, there are so many of them!" Arya Santanu parried some of their attacks. From behind, they attacked Arya Santanu like ants swarming around their prey. "Don't underestimate me!" Arya Santanu transformed the demonic hands on her arms with the natural energy flow that enveloped her arms. The young man swung his fist and managed to crush a few of them. But unfortunately, the watermen were able to regenerate and fight her again. "Hey, Aji Sangkala! These watermen can't be stopped!" Arya Santanu began to feel uncomfortable. "You have to defeat the water with other eleme
