PHT 19: News of the Horn Country
*The Conqueror of the Eastern Forest (PHT)*
“I master Mount Dewi Runa with the intention of being able to see the land directly in the Horn Country. From Mount Dewi Runa, later I will be able to see a sign if the Horned Country has released its fleet towards the land of this country. So, my first goal in coming to Sanggana Kecil was to convey that the Horn Country's naval fleet was the strongest in the ocean at the moment. I have a great Sea Force, but it is outnumbered that we cannot defeat the Horn Country's fleet. Does Sanggana Kecil have an adequate fleet?” said Demon Queen Alma Fatara, then asked.
“Sanggana Kecil has already built allies with several coastal kingdoms. They all have a fleet. However, if you draw a line from Mount Dewi Runa, the two coastal kingdoms at the foot of Mount Runa, namely the Kingdom of Sand Sky and Kerajaab Werang, we have not allied,” said Prabu Dira.
"Can we try after this, Kakang Prabu," said Queen Tirana.
“Warning about the plan of the Horned Country to attack Tanah Jawi we have conveyed ten years ago. It became a question mark when the attack never came, not even the signs were visible. I became worried if the coastal kingdoms had ignored the threat, so they did not put the strength of the fleet so much again,” said Empress Getara Cinta.
“That is very likely to happen, Brother Getara,” said Kerling Sukma.
“Unfortunately we do not have our own fleet, we only have a fleet of wells,” said Prabu Dira.
“Not Peacock Lines, Kurna Sagepa and Swara Perverted former pirate members,” said Empress Yuo Kai.
“True,” replied Prabu Dira. “Do the Marine Ruler Force should we divert into the Small Sangana Navy?”
“If the troops are diverted, then who will take care of the lake? The Power of the Peacock Line, Kurna Sagepa and Swara Sesat are already qualified. Perhaps Kakang Prabu could consider returning the three to the sea and leading a new naval force,” Ratu Tirana said.
“It seems, because most wives, Kakang Prabu now have difficulty thinking clearly. I strongly recommend that Kakang Prabu not add any more empresses. Enough we-we alone,” chirps Empress Sandaria.
“Hihihi!” the laughter of Queen Tirana and the other empresses.
“Hahaha!” the Laughter of Prabu Dira and Alma Fatara.
“Don't the Queen of Wolves insist on urging Kakang Prabu to marry Riskaya, because she is considered to be the Queen's big twin sister,” Empress Dewi Kusuma said, referring to the Chief Guardsman of Prabu.
“Hihihi!” the Laughter of Empress Sandaria. “It was. However, as I recall Kakang Prabu once whispered affectionately to me, will immediately raise Sister Riskaya as a concubine.”
“True like that, Kakang Prabu?” ask Kerling Sukma first.
“I didn't seriously say it to Empress Wolf. At that time I only teased him,” said Prabu Dira quibbled.
“Aaah, Kakang Prabu is starting to be dishonest!” empress Sandaria screeched while scowling spoiled.
“Iya, yes. What the Wolf Empress said was indeed true. I have the intention to make Riskaya the first concubine. However, even if you now agree,” said Prabu Dira smiling.
“It looks like Kakang Prabu is getting tired of our taste, Sister Empress,” Empress Kerling Sukma told Empress Getara Cinta.
“Eeeh, what do these brothers think of Kakang Prabu? It is not good to discuss the matter in front of the Demon Queen,” said Queen Tirana relaxed but wenched.
“Hahahak!” the laughter of Alma Fatara. “You guys talked about it too, I don't understand that kind of thing. I'm too innocent for taste. Hahahak!”
“Hahaha!” prabu Dira's casual laughter. “Plan on Riskaya, we will discuss it privately. Now we listen to the advice and views of the Demon Queen.”
“I just suggested that Gusti Prabu build a new navy led by experienced officers,” said Alma Fatara. “I got word from my teliksandiku in the Horn Country, the possibility of war will happen at the earliest one year away.”
“One year?” renaming Empress Kusuma Dewi. “It was a very narrow time to build a strong navy.”
“We are difficult to know the detailed plan of the Horn Country. All the teliksandi we sent there was found out and killed. So we are quite blind about the readiness of the Horn Country to attack,” said Prabu Dira.
The mention of the names of the country made Prabu Dira and his wives gasp. Because, the five names of the land that Alma Fatara called it they had never heard before.
“It looks like new this time we heard those names,” said Prabu Dira. Then ask his wives, “Have you ever heard of him?”
“I've never heard of it,” replied Queen Tirana.
The five empresses fell silent for a while. Empress Getara Cinta replied.
“It seems we have never heard the names of those countries, except the name of the Horn Country.”
“Hihihi! It looks like Kakang Prabu is too fast to be king, so less traveled,” said Empress Sandaria.
“If Kakang Prabu too long to wander, every return can bring a new wife,” said Empress Kerling Sukma.
Prabu Dira just smiled broadly.
“Did Gusti Prabu Dira, before hearing the news that the Horn Country will attack, ever heard the name of the Horn Country?” ask Alma Fatara.
“No,” replied Prabu Dira.
“Desert Well and Sea End Countries are further behind the Horn Country. The Green Coral Country is aligned with the Horned Country and its position is more to the west. The Three Realms are a nation not of man. While the Elephant Boat Nation is a nation that has no land, but lives above the sea and ocean,” explained Alma Fatara.
“I did not expect that this war would be that big,” said Empress Kerling Sukma.
“That's why I came to remind Gusti Prabu and the empresses. Because, if drawn a straight line, most likely the Horn Country will attack the south coast of the western country of Jawi Land. As for my position only as an aid provider from the eastern tip of Tanah Jawi,” Alma Fatara said.
“This is very important news for us that can make us prepare the strength based on the map that has been drawn,” said Prabu Dira.
“Maybe in the next six full moons, I will come here again to ascertain what kind of strength Gusti Prabu prepared in welcoming this great war,” said Alma Fatara.
“Of course we will be happy to wait for the arrival of Gusti Ratu back,” said Ratu Tirana with a cool smile.
“Surely my second arrival will be more troublesome, because I will bring my Maize Handheld Army. Hahaha!” alma Fatara.
“I think, the wealth of Little Sanggana is enough to welcome and serve the guests of the Demon Kingdom,” said Prabu Dira while smiling sweetly.
“Then, I want to convey that my second goal is to meet the residents of Telaga Fatara,”, said Alma Fatara.
“What?” said several empresses at the same time in shock to hear the intentions of the two Demon Queens.
“Can Gusti Ratu explain the meaning of the word meet it,” said Prabu Dira.
“As long as we build a civilization around Lake Fatara, we never meet or see the existence of the inhabitants or rulers of Lake Fatara,” Queen Tirana said.
“In addition to the Demon Queen, I am also the Fish Demon Queen. Fifteen years ago, I conquered a demon fish. It turns out that they are fish stealth that comes from the Lake Fatara. However, they and their king were driven out by Queen Fatara ruler Telaga Fatara. For a very long time I wanted to come to the Lake of Fatara and meet Queen Fatara. I want to know, like what is the name of the Fatara fish that has long been a legend for fishermen in my country,”, said Alma Fatara.
“Besok morning my queen will take Gusti Ratu to Telaga Fatara,” said Prabu Dira.
“Thank you, Gusti Prabu,” said Alma Fatara. (BH)
