Ravana and Sita-
Ravana was trying to break Sita’s will and make her become his mistress. She
refuses him over and over again, but is frustrated that Rama has yet to come
and save her. She threatens to kill herself, which is something we have heard
many people threaten throughout the story. Pg. 122
- I find it weird how often people say they are going to kill themselves in this story.
Hanuman is saved-
Hanuman is saved by Ravana’s brother Vibishana. Ravana sets fire to Hanuman’s
tail, Hanuman then runs through the city setting fire to everything. Pg. 123
- · Hanuman ruins everything in the city with his tail that Ravana set on fire. It’s entertaining how Ravana was messed up by his own torture.
Ravana’s council-
Many of Ravana’s council tries to get him to fight back against Rama by telling
him how great he is and how strong he is. His brother Vibishana reminds him
that he is not immune to humans and monkeys. Instead of heeding his words
Ravana becomes mad and believe that Vibishana is in love with Rama and
Lakshmana. Pg. 124-129
- · Vibishana travels across the seas and meets with Rama.
Vibishana- When
Vibishana visits Rama they are afraid to let them in, but Hanuman sees that he
has a pure heart. Vibishana also saved Hanuman when he faced Ravana so he
trusts his heart. They later crown Vibishana as the king of the land. Pg. 131

Rama gives Ravana a
second chance- When they are batteling each other Ravana is beaten down and
runs out of weapons. Rama gives him a chance to get more weapons and come back
the next day. Pg. 136
