Of course, it was all a distraction, as Ravana kidnaps Sita and brings her to the island city of Lanka, separated from the mainland by a giant ocean, where he tries to force her to marry him. He reluctantly leaves her under Lakshmana's guard, but when Sita thinks she hears him cry for help, she convinces Lakshmana to go after him. Sita is entranced by the deer, and asks Rama to capture it for her. Naturally, when Ravana hears of this, he's pissed off and orders the shape-shifting demon Maricha to turn into a golden deer. Ever faithful, Rama and Lakshmana deny her advances, and the latter cuts off her nose.

Surpanakha, a sister of the demon king Ravana, is entranced by the brothers' good looks and tries to seduce them. Rama, Lakshmana, and Sita eventually settle into a life of exile. When Rama refuses, Bharata accepts, but threatens to kill himself if Rama doesn't promptly return when his exile ends. Meanwhile, Bharata finds Rama in the forest and declares that the throne rightfully belongs to the latter. Lakshmana tags along with Rama and Sita, leaving his own wife and twin brother behind in Ayodhya. Dasaratha reluctantly does so, but he dies of heartbreak not long after. She then asks that Rama be exiled for fourteen years and her son, Bharata, be crowned. Rama and Sita reside together in peace for about a decade.Дasaratha, having grown old, is about to hand over his position to Rama, however his youngest and favorite wife Kaikeyi convinces him to fulfill The Promise he had made years ago.

Rama, naturally, breaks the bow, and marriages are arranged left and right between the two kingdoms. In other news, the neighboring King Janaka despairs that nobody can complete the Engagement Challenge to win the hand of his beautiful daughter Sita, as many suitors have tried and failed to even lift the bow of Shiva (which he ordered must be strung). When Rama, his eldest and favorite son, turns sixteen, the sage Vishwamitra requests his help in taking down the demons. He performs a great fire sacrifice and his three wives, in consequence, bear four sons: Rama, Bharata, and twins Lakshmana and Shatrughna. The epic begins in the city of Ayodhya whose king, Dasaratha, is in despair since he has no children to inherit his kingdom. It has also been influential in Hinduism as many Hindus celebrate Diwali in honor of the return of Lord Rama, his wife Sita and his brother Lakshmana from their exile of 14 years. The Ramayana is an Epic Narrative Poem written by one of Ancient India's oldest poets, Valmiki.
