JAWANAKARTA
TWENTY-THREE

Lor (North)

(Flashback 1000 year end)

"So Commander Mburu Nyowo is mbah..?"

"True Le Panglima Mburu Nyowo is Gardapati, the older brother of the Andarani namely Sang Pancang Lor."

"But how can, we all know about Commander Mburu Nyowo all recorded in history even from the Commander was small. But why is none of the history of the Commander allude to the Pancang Lor."

"It is true that the head of the Village of Mertos, as I recall it is indeed in history told that the Commander has a sister, but it is really unexpected that it turns out... "

"Then how does Etos go?"

"As in the history of Le, with Commander Dronota they went to Mount Puser."

"But in history they went to Mount Puser for fleeing when they had become royal fugitives. Mount Puser was the only region that the kingdom could not touch, even that to date was not."

"True Mount Puser is the sacred land of the ancestors, forbidden to the members of the kingdom. It was the rule of the Creator of the Universe that all land in JAWANAKARTA may be owned by the kingdom but not by the entire area of Mount Puser. The entire area from the weak hill to the slopes of Mount Puser should not be visited by members of the government."

"Then how could the Andarani or the Pancang not be included in the history of Commander Mburu Nyowo Mbah?"

"Back in essence Le, the Bastards exist because of misery, injustice, and sadness all of it is not worth exhibiting and showing because it is a disgrace to the kingdom. When in the time of the kingdom appeared The Andarani or Sang Pancang can be sure that it was a failure for the kingdom. So there would never be in history to dare to open their own disgrace."

"Then how Mbah Etos, can Mbah give us another clue so that we can immediately find the Staple Buffer."

"True Mbah Etos, Sultan Lor said that our time was limited before the palace knew that the Pancang Penang Penghang would be born in this period."

"True Le, the palace must not know that Sang Pancang will be born, especially until the palace gets the Sang Pancang first it can be a disaster for the entire JAWANAKARTA."

"What would be so terrible if we could not find the Pancang before the kingdom of Mbah?"

"Le, Sang Pancang is a buffer spear from the entire life of JAWANAKARTA, then can we live if there is nothing to support. The answer is clearly no Le, in fact humans are the weakest creatures in our entire universe. Humans can never live alone. All this time the Creator of the Universe has been extraordinarily good to us no, everything has been there for us humans. Fertile soil, abundant natural produce do not forget clean water and everything we can enjoy until now. Then what if everything I mentioned disappeared from the face of this earth. Can humans still live?"

"Mboten (no) Mbah."

"Then our ancestors always remind us of the balance in life, to always remember that it is not only human beings who were created by the Creator of the Universe. And man is only one of them and not even a strong creature. But as time went on, more and more people from the ancestors have never been remembered. As humans grew more and more, it grew bolder and felt the most powerful of the others. They forget who gave them the pleasure they've always had."

"Nyuwun sewu Mbah so a havoc that genengan (you) mean that we will lose everything in JAWANAKARTA?"

"Not only that Le, not a loss but JAWANAKARTA will also be lost, like NUSATAMARA used to be. All will return at the starting point but JAWANAKARTA will no longer exist."

"NUSATAMARAH? it means pripun (how) Mbah?"

"NUSATAMARA is notya niku (it) a nickname for countries that are allied with JAWANAKARTA Mbah."

"True Le, but do you know the origin of the name NUSATAMARA?"

"Mboten ngertos (don't know) Mbah. All we know is that nickname has been used by our ancestors for a long time."

"NUSATAMARA is the name of a country that is highly respected by the whole world. Natural beauty, ethnic and cultural diversity and natural wealth that is very much and abundant make the country dubbed a magical country. NUSATAMARA is a large country consisting of 5 large islands and dozens of other small islands. As a country must have a buffer pole, just like JAWANAKARTA which has 4 Sang Pancang. NUSATAMARA has 8 Sists who support the country. And just as JAWANKARTA the emergence of the Pancang is the beginning of a breakdown, injustice and misery in NUSATAMARA country. Because of the selfishness of a leader and his men who do not want to be restrained by tradition and culture. With their arrogance they did something that was forbidden in the land of NUSATAMARA. When the Pancang will fix the existing order they kill one stake and end up in the destruction of the entire state of NUSATAMARA."

"Nyuwun sewu Mbah Etos, if I do not misinterpret NUSATAMARA is..."

"True Le NUSATAMARA is the entire allied countries of JAWANAKARTA."

"So the name NUSATAMARA is not just a nickname, but it is true that was once a country."

"Then Le is very dangerous if the Pancang was found first by the kingdom. Remember that man cannot be the most perfect, man needs limits in life."

"Then how can we find the Pancang Mbah? We don't have much time."

"I can't help Le. You see I'm an old (already) wis, but there's something you can help Le. Just a minute."

Mbah Etos walked towards his room. The whole head of the Hamlet looked at each other and wondered, they were waiting in the hope that what was being taken Mbah Etos could help them to immediately meet Sang Pancang Lor. After a while Mbah Etos came out of his room while carrying a box covered by the typical batik cloth of Lor land. Etos sat down and opened it. Looked an old book with a velvet brown cover and a cloth package again.

"That ndak (can't) help you, but this book might help you."

Clearly visible is a picture book Gunungan with carvings like the roots of a tree. There is a Javanese script MUNG BEBENER SING WIN (only the correct one wins).

"This is what Mbah?"

"This is Le's storybook, containing the journey of life of the Andarani awit boykat kasperne jalanke dagasse (from childhood until he carries out his duties). Ikie (this) is the hereditary book of my family Le. Tipped from generation to generation to arrive at people in need. So take Le hopefully this can help."

"Satur suwun Mbah Etos, this is very helpful at the moment."

"It's like a blessing from the Creator of the Universe, when we really don't know where to look."

"Nyuwun sewu Mbah, kulo bade tanglet (i want to ask)"

"No Le opo (wonder what Le)?"

"Niki (this) is not the legacy of his family Mbah Etos. Is it okay if we take it Mbah? The Mbah family must have taken very good care of him from generation to generation."

"Ndak (not) anything Le. This book was created by our ancestors to use when needed. We are always given a message to take good care of it and give it to the needy. And I think you need it right now."

"Suwun (thank you) Mbah we will take care and use it as well as possible."

"Just one more Le, Mbah wants to take this."

Mbah Etos took out a roll of cloth from inside the city and handed it to the head of Dusun Tanggul.

"Nyuwun sewu what is Mbah?"

"That is to be returned to its owner."

"The owner of the synthetics (who) Mbah we do not understand."

"The owner is anyone who will take care of the Sovereign Lor, Mbah leave this to you later when you find him."

"Nyuwun sewu means Mbah Etos Sang Darani Lor."

"True give this to him, then he will know everything so that he can carry out his duties well."

"Then we say goodbye first Mbah, sorry we have interrupted the Mbah Etos break."

"Sir (not) anything Le, Mbah is happy to be able to help you, although not many are actually helping Mbah."

"Boten leres niku (not true that) Mbah. Mbah has helped us a lot. Mature suwun (thank you)."

"Together Le."

"We ask for permission to go home first Mbah. Thanks again."

"We excuse Mbah Etos, excuse me Tarsiyah ma'am sorry to disturb."

"Ndak (not) anything, the head of the hamlet. Be careful on the road because it starts raining outside."

"Thank you monggo."

"Monggos."

"Even (already) start njeh MbahKung."

"Wis nduk, get ready wae (only) nduk RUWATAN must be accompanied by karo (same) weeping and misery."

"Injeh MbahKung, mugi-mugi lek enggal sae negorone (may-hopefully good quick his country)."

"Amin nduk."

"MbahKung monggo (mari) rest first. It's night, even (already) the time for MbahKung to rest."

"Lha Rahmi wants to endi (so where) nduk?"

"Even (already) Bobok MbahKung."

"O yes wis (o yes already) I yo tak (i also want) break my duty yo wis completed (my job is also done) nduk."

In a densely populated residential area in the eastern city of Lor seen crowded by people passing by. The area found in the main area with beautiful tall buildings is inversely proportional to the residential area. Like being in a different world but side by side with each other.

"Mas, you haven't come home yet?"

"Not deck, not to mention the most."

"Why tumben ndakatan wait for your Father nduk?"

"Ndak (not) anything Mak hehehe."

"Most also adek ask something to the Father, Mak."

"What the hell would Mas Aji want to know."

"Then look at your father's cart already seen."

"The father has come home."

"Nduk Kalasih do not run away later fall, just wait here Mr."

"Dek Asih ndak (no) will be horrified Mak. See Mak fix what Aji said must be asking for something from you."

"You want Le?"

"What do you want Mak?"

"Yes you want something maybe, ndak (no) anything just ask Le if there's anything you want. Later the same father Mamak find."

"Ndak (no) no Mak. Aji ndak (doesn't) want anything."

"True Le you didn't (no) lie, did you?"

"Injeh (yes) Mak."

"Yes already if you want something to say yo Le, it is the duty of Mr. Mamak to meet your needs as well as yours. Ndak (no) thought nothing. We are not from among those who are like those who live in the high building. But believe me le the Creator of the Universe is always fair and compassionate. Anyone who believes and holds fast to it will surely be given the way and Le's help."

"Injeh (yes) Mak."

"This Mas Aji is for Mas."

"What is this deck?"

"Just open it."

"Shoes?"

"Sepatu Mas Aji was already hollow yesterday when the gym class at Asih school see you know, continue Asih said the same Mr. Mamak."

"Aji's shoe pack can still be worn."

"Already Le you wear this, the shoes have also long ago do you think you also have ndak (no) will fit again."

"Let's try Mas Aji."

"Let's go, Mamak will see too."

"Wah fit perfectly with Mas Aji's feet. It fits, Mom."

"Yes very suitable, Mamak's son's gantenge."

"The Father's son is also Mak."

"Haha..."

Happy laughter was heard in the house of 3 plots on the edge of Tambak in a densely populated residential area. A happy little family with simple circumstances. Prove that not all happiness is owned by wealth.

Seriate...
