The Tragedy
Tomorrow is the king's birthday. All palace people are busy for preparation to celebrate the king's birthday. As a queen, Tania is also busy, she checked all dancers at pavilion west, after that she went to the Royal kitchen to check that all is done. She has a plan to cook rendang, but there is no coconut milk stock in the royal kitchen. Tania plans to go to Kutaraja Market to buy some coconut milk. Then she goes to Kutaraja Market alone without Ratri. She also didn't ask permission first from the King.
The Prime Minister strategizes the rebellion at the king's birthday. In that meeting, there is Prince Toh Jaya, and another minister that pro prime minister. Prime Minister asked Prince Toh Jaya to steal Keris Mpu Gandring from King Anusapati.
Keris is an Indonesian asymmetrical dagger with distinctive blade-patterning achieved through alternating laminations of iron and nickelous iron (pamor). And Mpu Gandring was a famous Keris maker in the 11th Century. Keris Mpu Gandring is the most powerful Keris.
The rumor told that the former king (King Ken Angrok) killed Tunggul Ametung using Keris Mpu Gandring. Tunggul Ametung was a powerful leader of Tumapel. Tumapel was part of the Kadiri Kingdom which already became the Singhasari Kingdom after Ken Angrok's expansion. And The Rumor said that King Anusapati killed King Ken Angrok to get his revenge because King Anusapati is the son of Tunggul Ametung.
Prime Minister believes that only Keris Mpu Gandring can kill the current king. Because Keris Mpu Gandring is the most powerful keris on Java Island. But now the Keris is kept by King Anusapati. After receiving the order of Prime Minister, Prince Toh Jaya plans to go to the Palace to steal Keris Mpu Gandring.
"I will go to the palace now", said Prince Toh Jaya.
Prince Toh Jaya goes to the Palace. He walks through Kutaraja Market because the Palace is close to Kutaraja Market. He saw the restaurant that he visited with the queen, then he smiles when remembered it. After that he saw the woman who was being robbed, he came to the woman and he realized that the woman is queen. Prince Toh Jaya helps her but his right hand was injured after hit by the sword.
The queen opened her shawl then she wrapped the prince's wounds.
"Thanks your majesty", said Prince Toh Jaya.
"I am the one who needs to say thank you. sorry I made you harm". Said Tania.
"It's ok, I will always protect you, wherever you are". Said Prince Toh Jaya
"ok finish, now the blood will stop flowing". Said Tania
In the Palace, The king was worried because the queen left without telling anything. He scolds the careless Ratri for not taking good care of the queen.
"Forgive me your majesty, please kill me". Said Ratri.
"Bagas, please go to find my queen". Ordered the King.
"Yes your majesty". Said Bagaskara.
On Tania's way to the palace, she met Prince Mahisa. Prince Mahisa asked why Prince Toh Jaya's hand has wound.
"Brother, what's happen with you?" asked Prince Mahisa.
"He safe me from the thief". Said Tania.
"Hah?.. and you Sister, are you ok?". Asked Prince Mahisa.
"I am ok". Answered Tania.
"Ah Brother, please take our queen to the palace, I will back to my home". Said Prince Toh Jaya.
"Ok, then"
Tania continues her way to the Palace with Prince Mahisa while Prince Toh Jaya still looking at her. Tania stopped her step, then she back to Prince Toh Jaya.
"Toh Jaya, please take care". Said Tania.
"Thanks your majesty, you need to go right now". Said Prince Toh Jaya with his smile.
After Tania left, Prince Toh Jaya saw his wound, then he touched Tania's scarf which had been wrapped around the wound. Then he smiled.
Tania has arrived in the palace. When she entered her room, there was King Anusapati. He sits waiting for his queen back to the Palace. Tania and Prince Mahisa can't speak anything.
"Why you go without tell me anything?". Asked the king.
"I just went Kutaraja Market to buy coconut milk". Answered Tania.
The King looked at Queen's hand. Then he saw blood.
"Is it blood? are you ok?", asked the king.
"no problem, this isn't my blood, this is....".
"Chicken blood". Shouted Prince Mahisa.
"Chicken?"
King asked Ratri to clean the queen's palm. After that King asked Tania to get some rest. Then King left her room with Prince Mahisa.
The next day is the day of King Anusapati's birthday celebration. Tania goes to the royal kitchen, she will cook her favorite food "rendang". On her way to the royal kitchen, she walks through the Prime Minister's room, then she met Prince Toh Jaya.
"Toh Jaya, how are you?", said Tania.
"I am good", answered Prince Toh Jaya.
"How about your wound?", asked Tania.
"It's already healed, don't worry".
"Oh, ok then I will go"
After that, Prince Toh Jaya visited his mother. His mother saw his wound. Then Prince Mahisa told the truth. His mother advised him to stop wishing for what was not his because it would hurt him.
"I will take care of her even if she is not mine". Said Prince Toh Jaya.
Prince Toh Jaya left his mother's room. Then Ken Umang plans a royal wedding for him. She will be looking for a good wife for her son.
In the royal kitchen, King Anusapati came to see his wife cooking some food.
"Hei Anusapati, you are here". Said Tania.
"Yes, can I do anything to help you?", asked the king.
"Hmmm.. I need a cutting board but there is no cutting board". Said Tania.
"Ok, I will go and find it, just wait for me here".
"Ok, don't come late".
"Yes my queen".
The King went to find the cutting board. When the king found the cutting board, Karso called him, Karso said that the guests were waiting for the king at the hall where the king's birthday is celebrated. Finally, the king went to meet the guests. Then karso came to the royal kitchen and told the queen that the king had gone to the place for his birthday celebration.
The birthday party for King has begun. King Anusapati knows that there will be rebellion. He looking for Bagaskara but he isn't there. At that time, it was the turn of the martial arts show. But strangely, those who performed a martial arts show attacked the king. One of them stabbed the king's chest with a sword. The king fell and went limp. Tania just came and saw that the king is on the floor. She is running towards the king. She embraced the king and wept over the king.
