Reading Notes: Part D

Ravana continues to use his special powers to one up Rama and hide Sita from him. This obviously still does not stop the pursuit of Sita by Rama. Garuda comes into the story and plays a big role for Rama being the healer. This could be huge of their group because he can help Rama's wounded soldiers gain their health again. Ravana continues to play mind games with Rama and make him feel like Sita has already been killed but Rama gets a tip from Vibhishana to find the right attacking point to find Ravana at his weakest. Ravana only wants to avenge his son's death in battle and will not stop till he finds Lakshmana. Rama and Ravana square off in the final fight but it has been plans the entire time that Ravana was gong to die at the hands of Rama. This would be a good story to write about as it was always in the destiny that Ravana was going to die and Rama got the help of the gods to do it. Rama finally becomes king after his fourteen years of exile. Sita is ended up in exile and it is weird ending to the story because she was why everyone worked so hard to gain in the first place. Rama realizes his time has come and he ends up going back heaven to be with his brother.
