In today’ reading, Rama and his followers overcome a lot of
difficulties to reach the Lanka City. They will take siege to the Lanka City
and save Sita. The Monkey King Hanuman did have a lot much scenes. However,
another animal god that I want to write in my project comes out. The mighty
Garuda!
The siege is very tragic, countless monkey soldiers died
during the day. The war looks good for Rama until night comes, Indrajit, a Naga race guy, uses his ability to
sneak attack Rama and Lakshmana. The condition of the war become worse and
worse; Rama and his brother cannot see Indrajit because of Indrajit’s in
visible ability. When they are going to lose hope, the Garuda comes and brings
healing to Rama’s army. With the aid of the Garuda, the monkey army continues
the siege to the Lanka City.
In my storytelling, I would change the setting. Rama will go
to the Garuda and ask for help. Garuda says he will stealth beside the battle
field because he want to assassinate Indrajit. Indrajit is a Naga race, which
is Garuda’s enemy and food resource. Garuda will unleash a power wave of light
right after Indrajit uses his invisible ability. The light will heal the monkey
army and hurt enemies. Moreover, the light will make Indrajit visible to Rama
and Lakshmana, so they could use their archery skill to hurt Indrajit. Finally,
the Garuda will eat Indrajit as whole as his meal.
