SECRET MAURA
The Story of Balaputradewa and Goddess Srikandi
Maura is in a room that is quite spacious, luxurious impression is quite visible there. Carvings and ornaments nuanced gold attached signify the place is very classy.
She was given beautiful clothes, special clothes in that place. So beautiful and graceful, some food and drinks are also available which is quite appetizing.
After everything was finished, he was called to face Maharaja Balaputradewa and his sister who was the Crown Princess who had married one of the previous Majapahit Kings.
" Let the princess, please sit in front of us. In accordance with my previous promise, that I will tell you everything. All your confusion will be explained." The Crown Princess said.
"I am Crown Princess Kenanga Ayu, I am the sister of Maharaja Balaputradewa who is your future husband. Surely that was a story in the past, in the present you are nobody.
Princess, there are some things in this world that cannot be explained with words. Where the impossible can be possible, I am sure you will not believe until you experience it firsthand. And I hope from the moment you believe what you're going through right now even though it's weird and impossible.
Princess, do you believe in reincarnation? Do you believe in God's power? do you also believe that within you also grow your guardian angel and protector? if this question is told to me, then I answer yes." Said again.
Maura did not understand at all what the Princess said, the language full of grammar and courtesy was not at all familiar to her ears.
"Sorry Princess, can be explained directly to the point, I still do not understand." Maura said she was trying to stay polite.
Princess Kenaga Ayu smiled, she understood very well that they came from different places, so the way of speech and attitude must be different.
" Daughter, you are the reincarnation of Goddess Srikandi Putri Dadar Bulan. In the past, you were the future wife of my sister Balaputradewa. You are separated by war, you are a crown princess and a srikandi who led the war.
You died in the hands of a traitor, who made my brother go berserk to become a cruel King. Until the end of his life he died, he still loved you and that love did not change.
Even though she was married to another woman, the feeling did not go away. He was crowned Emperor, but there was no Empress beside him. The previous queen was only the status of an ordinary wife and queen, but not the full companion of the Emperor. Because Balaputradeva did not allow it, to approach him only the queen could not afford.
And that's why he died in the queen's hands, he was poisoned to death because of the pain and disappointment felt by the queen." Said.
"And what does this have to do with me?" Maura asked curiously.
"Daughter, because your death was related to the death of the Emperor. In the past, it may also not have been written in the history of the life of a cruel witch, she was a devotee of the devil and many victims died in his hands.
It was terrifying that he also had loyal followers numbering in the thousands and even tens of hundreds of thousands of his followers. We are not just fighting invaders or fighting against kingdoms fighting over territory. We must also fight against the tyranny and cruelty that resulted in more casualties than the victims of war with other kingdoms. As the word goes, we are fighting a cruel demon kingdom not only of booty, they are even robbing virgin children and babies to be made into sacrifices as a surrender to the devil." Said explain.
"And you were also assigned to be the guardian and protector of the kings and sultans of that era, you have a very extraordinary power that no one else has.
In fact, the class of commander or general of war leaders is not a match. That's why you were assigned to be a retainer and the only srikandi to be in that pack.
It was not easy to keep the trust and burden so great and heavy, many resigned because they were not strong and even became traitors, because the witches were good at deception playing tricks to shake their faith.
Until that betrayal occurs, you die in the hands of one of the traitorous retainers and carry one of the sacred treasures. Things that could become weapons against the witch, and the Times changed until thousands of years passed.
Until you've been docked, you've been reincarnated to reclaim the relic and fight the descendants of the living witches, as well as protect people from its influence." The crown princess explained.
Then he showed a picture in front of him, like a big screen in front of him. Seen there Bik Marni, Gerald, and Camelia sat down in front of him.
"You see there, there's a cat wearing a magic pomegranate jade necklace. That necklace is the sacred thing, and the spirit of the woman is the grandson of the offspring of the traitor.
" Camelia is a good girl, she's not evil. He could behave like that out of heartache being killed by evil spirits." Maura said she still could not believe that Camelia would turn into an evil spirit.
"Have you forgotten what happened just now, when he was about to attack you? He already knows the strength of the necklace, he doesn't want you to have it. He wanted to use the power of the necklace for revenge, and you know what the necklace was for wasn't like that.
Don't get carried away, stay calm.control your emotions, and you know Srikandi's soul is in your body to keep you and the people around you from the witch's interference" he reminded Maura.
"Alright, I quite understand what you mean. But there's one thing my question is, does this all have something to do with my late mother's death?" Said Maura.
"Yes, that's right. Your late mother was a direct descendant of the Srivijaya Sultanate who was a great enemy of the witch.
They sent a genie pulling the tumblr that bound her, because your mother was marked by an object to be used as the witch's mash." Said the crown princess.
Hearing that Maura became sad and furious, she wanted to avenge her mother.
As if aware of that, the crown princess reminded Maura to remain calm not to get carried away by emotions. Because excessive emotions or hatred and resentment can bring us deeper slump.
After Maura's explanation and questions have all been answered and the mystery of her mother's death is revealed, Maura becomes aware of what she should do now.
It's just that the crown princess and Maharaja Balaputradewa did not explain who the witch was, and who their enemies or friends would help her later.
Maura was ushered back home by Balaputradewa directly to the edge of the lake, in front of them like there was a transparent door of light like a mirror, which was ready to deliver Maura home.
"Thank you Maharaja, for your great welcome and service. I will fulfill the task that has not been completed, pray that I can avenge you and you can return with the real Goddess Srikandi." Maura said with a smile.
He began to enter the mirror door waving his hand to the Emperor, and was met with a smile by Balaputradewa.
"If it were you, my god, how happy would my heart be. I miss you so much." He said with a bitter smile.
When he was about to turn around, there was someone coming out from behind the mirror door.
"Maura, why is she back again. Is there anything else?" He said in wonder.
Then he turned back and directed his guards to ask Maura for what else.
"Maharaja Balaputradewa, my beloved whom I greatly admire. Don't you miss me?" Said the figure.
Balaputradewa shocked in disbelief, it turns out that it is not Maura but rather Goddess Srikandi the real Daughter of the Moon.
She cried tears of joy, after a long wait, finally this sad story passed as well. His happy days will come.
And of course, after their task was done, true happiness arrived.
