Reading Notes: Battle With Khara, Part B

As Rama, Sita and Lakshmana ventured into the forest they quickly realized that there was going to be trouble. Rama ordered his brother Lashmana to take Sita and protect her while he went to deal with the demons alone. Hastily Khara (a man eating demon) and his men approached Rama who only had a bow and arrow. Rama was able to kill many warrior demons with his bow and arrow and even managed to kill Dushana, Khara's brother as well as Khara. With both head honchos slain and the other warrior demons dead the battle was ended and Rama was triumphant. Rama, Sita, and Lakshama were reunited once again.
