CHAPTER 10
WANT TO GO TO DEMAK CRAFT.
After seeing for yourself what happened in Sunan Kalijaga.
The way of thinking and the point of view of Arka began to change.
There are other ways tampa need to rebel to the kingdom or by way of war.
But the knowledge of Arka to be able to do such a thing is very far away.
He argued that a great effort would bring about a marvelous miracle.
Life help each other help, it is a satisfaction of the humanity that everyone should have.
We are destined by God S.W.T to need each other.
When his heart and mind are united, the spirit of the Arka is pulled back by divine light.
Not long after that Arka woke up from her long dream.
"Akh, where am I. Oh right I'm in this river, that dream feels real once I feel." Said Arka after regaining consciousness.
From the dream in his nature, now he feels he has to study somewhere.
Arka had once visited a kingdom with his grandfather Semar to be invited to host the art show golek.
The kingdom was named the Kingdom of Demak whose king was named Raden Fatahillah, commonly called Raden Patah. The average population is many Muslims. It is not surprising because in the kingdom once stood a group called Walisongo.
Akra decided he wanted to go to Demak Kingdom and at the same time seek new experiences in Demak kingdom.
Demak Kingdom or Demak Sultanate was founded by Raden Patah. The center of Demak Kingdom is in Demak, Central Java. In terms of the spread of Islam, the Kingdom of Demak was assisted by Wali Songo.
Economic Life of Demak Kingdom
Its location is very strategic on the coast of Java, making Demak a developed trading city with Surabaya, Madura, Tuban, Semarang, Jepara, Cirebon and Sunda Kelapa.
In addition to trade, the Kingdom of Demak also supported export commodities such as rice from the interior produced from the duchy of – duchies such as Madiun, Kediri, Malang, Pati and Pajang.
These commodities are exported through international trade routes in the archipelago.
After standing alone, the Kingdom of Demak placed the dukes of – dukes in the area of – region as an extension of the Sultan.
Such areas as Surabaya, Tuban, and Madiun which had a very influential duke.
Social Life of Demak Kingdom
Unlike the Hindu and Buddhist kingdoms, in Islam there is no caste in social life.
In Islam there is also no ritual – ritual that costs money like that done in Hinduism.
The social system of the Kingdom of Demak is egalitarian, meaning that there is equality between the people and the leader that can be seen when performing prayers.
Arka began to stand up from his residence, then went to his residence in the tavern.
After arriving at the place.
"Rear Arka wherever you've been, go a long time to 3 days, I think you've died in the Majapahit kingdom.
I'm so worried about you knowing.
Even Sari can't rest, always thinking of you." Said Dik Aini who saw Arka coming in.
"What, three days. As long as I'm gone, I don't expect that long as I'm gone." Saut Arka was very surprised, without him realizing that he was gone for up to 3 days.
"Where are you really from." Ask Aini.
"Where's Sari" asked Arka.
"Mbak Sari's in her room, you'll meet her soon." Saut dik Aini.
Then Arka and Dik Aini went to Sari's room.
After arriving in Sari's room, it is seen by her that Sari is asleep due to illness.
"Look who I'm carrying." Said Aini who had just arrived in Sari's room.
Then Sari opened her eyes, and saw that there was Arka.
"I didn't see it wrong." Sari said after seeing Arka in front of her.
"Of course you don't see it wrong, you're sick of missing me, is that right." Said Arka to Sari.
"Hem, who said. I'm not sick because you know, don't get me wrong, you selfless son of a bitch...." Saut Sari while pulling Arka's nose.
"Alleged.., yes, yes. I'm just kidding, Sick knows." Saut Arka's.
"Where have you been all this time, I've been looking for you everywhere but couldn't find you." Ask Sari.
"The whole story, but the most important thing is that I'm here." Saut Arka's.
"It's up to you, if you don't want to tell me. But next time you go, you'll have to tell me first, do you understand the son of a bitch." Said Sari affirming to Arka.
"Yes, yeah. I'm wrong, I'm sorry to worry you guys." Saut Arka's.
"How should I tell them now. (To go to Kerajan Demak.)" Speak Arka from the heart.
"That's it, maybe I'll say it tomorrow." Say another Arka in his heart.
*Then at the place where Pitaloka's residence is.
Pitaloka is in a cave located not far from the coast of the South Sea.
In the Cave he was performing a cult and offering to summon a monster from the Invisibility Realm, the Dragon Serpent Demon. Which is nicknamed the Queen of the Sea Kidul or Queen of the South Sea coast.
Pitaloka began to do asceticism and cast a spell in his heart.
"Camkuprit simanutil kecepirit ." Say 3× Suan read a mantara in his heart.
Then came a Door leading to the dimension of the Invisibility Realm in the cave where Pitaloka was meditating.
There are three beings in the Unseen Realm, namely the dedemites, the demons, and the last is the demons.
And now Pitaloka is doing a hermitage to open the gate of the Invisibility Realm inhabited by demons.
Demons are known to have a human-like figure that can change into an animal. As we know, namely crocodile putuh, tiger demon, snake demon and so on.
The plan is that Pitaloka will summon the Dragon Serpent Demon to help him destroy the Majapahit empire, because his warrior (Dedemit) cannot defeat a masked warrior.
It is likely that if he asks for help from a Demon Queen (Queen Kidul), the goal can be achieved immediately (Destroying the Majapahit.)
But the gate is still not open because he must first meet some conditions to be able to open the gate.
The condition to be able to open the gate, Pitaloka was ordered to find 1000 collisions of creatures of the World or humans, to be exchanged for his life with the demon that exists in the Unseen Realm.
And the last condition he must be able to get the King's Princess named Mutia for the offering that will be the container for the Queen of the child later.
Mutia was the son of King Demak Raden Patah. Raden Patah once had a wife from the world of heaven named Purbasari a fairy tale. (It's just a mere wreath.)
Because Mutia has the blood of a descendant of a Goddess of Heaven. So from there the Queen of Kidul wants to have a special body like Princess Mutia.
