Memories of a Thousand Years
Nirmala

Bayu still do not understand why arrived nirmala entrust her valuables.

But that's not what makes him nervous. The words about how he could return to his origin, made Bayu remember one thing that he had forgotten.

Bayu rushes to his room, picking up a book he bought last week. Stupidly he was such an important thing he could forget. The expensive book was not even opened at all.

He immediately picked it up and read the book carefully. Fortunately, the book is written in Javanese. He understands a little bit of Javanese. It's just that many words are very foreign. Such a book is written from an early source of a foreign language or a translation from a foreign language.

it's from English, he thought.

Then he unfolded the purple inked paper.

True as he knows it.

He took another piece of paper in a book. The two papers are placed side by side. The images and symbols are very similar. Some are different, and the details are a little more complete on his paper but there is no title at all. Different from the other paper. There are no details but it is written there clearly what the picture is.

If interpreted the title is "symbol and ritual summoning of demons"

"demons??"

he realized something.

A few months ago he practiced this science in the middle of the forest beside a steep cliff.

At that time, he was carrying only that piece of paper. Curious about what he can do.

A formation symbol was painted on the floor using the blood of a black chicken, some offerings were placed in the middle.he replaced some symbols because they were not clearly written on the paper.

A smart person, quickly understands something. Moreover, the thing that made him interested, he always immediately practiced it.

It's just that this kind of thing doesn't know what he wants to know.

He cast a spell that was half-written in the paper and added according to his wishes. Not at all originally. It was just that he had thought of it beforehand which was perfectly suitable and proper to replace that missing spell.

Some time nothing happened, and then he seemed to hear something, echoing in the room piercing into his ear. His head was full of that voice.

A woman's voice, crying, angry, desperate. The one word he always remembered from the roar was "please, take me away from here" the sentence made him open his eyes, as soon as he stood up from his place, taking out a knife that had been lying beside him. Vaaogb. He accidentally held his knife eye. He made his hands shed a lot of blood. The situation became very quiet. But after that nothing happened. Maybe it was just a hallucination he thought.

Unknowingly his injured tag was dripping blood on the formation. His symbol became imperfect because of his blood.

It's already afternoon. Because nothing happened. He left all that and went home.

Looking at the two papers, made him ask a question. Is there a demon called. Or something to do with the number of missing people?

But at that moment nothing happened. Just a few voices echoing in his head.

But he's still curious. If his summoning is successful, is he even the one who called Nirmala?

The time was very fitting when Bayu came home, at night Sapta's grandfather found Nirmala. Is it not a coincidence?

But what's written there is a demon summoning. Nirmala is a demon. But as long as they're together. Nirmala is a normal human being. Was there any influence from the symbols and spells he had changed?

could it be like that?

all revolving in the kepalanga makes it have a million questions that are still mysterious.

Bayu stared at the small bag clingy and then put it on his neck he was already berjannji will take care of it.

[Wijaya family visit day to visit Ayu]

Bayu, Tuan Wijaya and Haris come to visit Ayu, the owner of the herbal shop gives only all the herbs to bring to Ayu. Ayu will need it most.

Arriving there. Bayu, Haris and Nirmala meet Ayu. The adults are having a serious conversation.

Ayu looks very sick.

Bayu tried to check it out. But indeed the symptoms that look just like ordinary anemia. There's nothing else. He has no history of pain. Bayu and Haris were very worried.

While Haris talks to Ayu. Bayu asked Nirmal a few things.they stood behind the door.

Nirmala looked very agitated and very anxious. Sure oes. He was close to Ayu.

Bayu "what's wrong, you look agitated"

Nirmala just flanged her head. "I'm just worried. I feel like something's wrong"

Come from the hallway.enyapa Nirmala and Bayu with a sweet smile. Dyah is very cheerful even though bad things can impanyam him a very positive person.

Bayu "no need to worry. Ayu has someone who loves her very much. Like Dyah and you"

Bayu gave gifts of herbs to Dyah and with the initiative Nirmala helped Dyah prepare the herbs for Ayu to drink..

After all, it feels enough. They also returned home.

The afternoon someone came. The envoy from Mandalika Palace, reported that Ayu was critical. Poisoned by Nirmala.

the sentence rotates in the mind of the baby.

Immediately the baby asked the envoy to also tell Haris and Uncle Wijaya. Of course Bayu told him to tell him only about his critical condition regarding the poison and Nirmala Jangn was told. They must be very worried.

At once Bayu also first ran towards the Palace. Her Herbal Shop was much closer than Lord Wilis's residence so the baby must have arrived first.

Bayu stopped in front of the gate. Seeing Mr. Budhi just come back from nowhere. Carrying a piece of dirty clothes and tattered camping. It was full of blood and soil..

He recognized the clothes. Pink clothes embroidered with beautiful flowers around her collar.

It belongs to Nirmala.

Bayu approached and asked Mr. Budhi .

"Uncle, what's with that outfit, it's Nirmala's, right? Where's she?"

"Let's inside. Ask Mr. Wilis.

Bayu entered the hall with Mr. Budhi. Mr. Wilis is sitting in his chair. His face was red. Resisting emotions.

Mr. Budhi reported. Putting the dirty clothes in front of him, kneeling down, with glazed eyes, he said, "Your master doesn't have to worry about everything I've finished."

Bayu "Uncle Budhi what's wrong?"

Mr. Budhi "wait for all the big families to come together."

Finally Mr. Wiriya, Mr. Wijaya Haris, also Dhika finally came.

Mr. Budhi explained the situation.

The discussion almost broke out. Some people don't believe. Some just remain silent. Bayu vehemently denied the accusation.

"it's impossible for nirmala to do that. it's very unlikely." but all can't do much. The poison powder was found in her shirt.

Mr. Wilis "that's right and I hope everyone can accept it. Nirmala Killed in the Forest. Let only that news fly. I don't want Ayu to feel sad at being betrayed"

But Mr. Wilis also asked not to tell anyone about the poison. It will make you feel sad. For a while the news about Nirmala if Ayu asked. The story will be made as if he was peegi somewhere and a week later died.

Very good scenario. And everyone gets involved in it. They have to obey that.

Bayu urges lord Budhi "uncle. Where did uncle take him?

Mr. Budhi "relieved him Bayu. He's gone. Nirmala mamg is dead."

Looking at that broken shirt everyone believed.

Bayu "uncle just tell me where you took nirmala away."

Then he answered. "The dense forest of Mount Halimun"

Everyone was stunned to hear that.

"it's appropriate for him" said Mr. Wilis.

Heard that. Bayu stepped back and ran immediately leaving the palace.

Spur his horse as hard as he could. I wish Nirmala was still in her place.

The horse is fast. It started raining since he left the palace. Her clothes got wet the more she didn't care. He wants to find nirmala.

Until a few more steps into the dense forest, the horse on his ride stopped reluctant to enter. As if there was something she was afraid of there.

bayu don't care

He ran into the forest.

He traced a trail that almost disappeared in the rain.

the rain has started to stop. The trail seemed to remain an indeterminate line.

He saw several arrows stuck in the trunk of a tree. Some are on the ground.

One of the arrows was covered in blood.

From the ground not far from there, a little puddle of blood was seen. Although it was raining but still clearly visible teta blood there. It indicates that whoever lost this blood. He's very badly hurt.

Seeing that his tears were endlessly flowing. He rolled his eyes looking for another sign. Run looking all the way here. No sign of him finding any more

no more traces of blood.

no more footprints

not even his body was found.

where's she.

It's getting dark. Bayu desperate. The only thing that makes sense is. Nirmala was killed by a wild animal.

Or brought by mountain bandits.

There is no hope for him anymore.

Seeing the blood, it made him seem to be in disbelief. Nirmala must have been seriously injured. Even if it survives, it may not last long.

Bayu rested on the pool of blood mixed with mud.

His head lowered, his tears flowing.

He doesn't understand why it all happened.

If the demon summoning is successful. And Nirmala is the one he calls. Everything that happens to him is his responsibility. His mistake.

He knows his curiosity gets someone hurt.

But on the other hand he also wanted answers to everything he had felt all along. The call he did was because he wanted to know how his family could run out.

I hope to get that answer. It even brings trouble to others..

He held tightly to the small pouch that wrapped around his neck. In his heart he promised he would keep looking for Nirmala to return this precious thing.

Finally the baby came back with nothing. Half-heartedly he walked back.

The horse he was riding went nowhere.

It rained this time. Is a hundred days after the betting starts. Nirmala answered correctly. Bayu turned his face to the sky "you won Nirmala, what do I want to promise you? What promise do I want to hold for you?, you haven't answered that, have you?. Then come back."

A month passed without any sign from Nirmala.

Bayu amsih searches for her whereabouts.

He can't have gone far.

He loves this country, though,

Dyah often visited the bayu in the store, sometimes met, sometimes not, the need ktoko also to buy some herbs for members of the family Wilis . Bayu is more often wandering around looking for herbs, or going to the fields to care for and grow herbs. He's busy himself.

Dyah once asked Bayu if Nirmala meant anything to him.

Bayu answered of course. From the first time he met until the last time he disappeared, no one doubted him. Both his nature and kindness, even his intelligence. Whatever is done. Always do it with all your heart.

In addition, of course, because Bayu feels responsible for it even though the call is not necessarily true .

The news came the following month. Maryam Ayu has died. The pain has never healed since. The more the day gets worse. Until his last breath.

Everyone was grieving over the poor girl, especially Haris, her fiance. The girl always left a good impression on everyone.
