"Hey Shri Ram, yeh mera saubhagya hai ki aaj mai aap sabhu se mil raha hu, jinka naam sansaar ke charo dishao mai faila hai." Sugreev said. Shri Ram smiled.

"Shri Ram, kuch din pehle issi jagah maine dard bhari pukar suni thi, ek stree baar baar 'Raghunandan' pukar rahi thi. Thodi din pehle ek rath hava ki gati se akash maarg se dakshin ki oor jaa raha tha. Aur rath se ek potli gir padi, usse humne sambhal ke rakha hai." Sugreev said.

"Woh kaha hai ?" Shri Ram asked. Sugreev gestured Neel to bring it.

Seeing the bundle of sage like clothing and Jewelleries in it, Shri Ram recognized it all to be Mata Sita's.

"Yeh awashya Sita ke vastra hai aur abhushan bhi Sita ke hi hai. Oh Site....meri Site..." Shri Ram said as few tears fell from his eyes.

"Prabhu, aapke paas dhiraj khone ka vakt nahi hai. Mujhe pata hai pati ko patni ke bina kitna dukh hota hai." Sugreev said.

"Arthat ?" Aahana asked.

"Mere bhai Vali ne mujhe rajya se bhi nikal diya aur meri patni Ruma bhi mujhse chhin li. Oh ! Agar mere paas meri saari sena hoti toh mai awashya unhe charo dishao mai bhej deta Sita maiyya ko dhundhne." Sugreev said sadly.

"Satya ?" Shri Ram asked.

"Ha Shri Ram, kyu na hum apne shakti aur mitrata ke bal se apne dukho ka naash kar de ?" Sugreev suggested.

"Aisa hi karenge. Sita se pehle mai aapko aapka rajya aur aapki patni punah dilayunga." Shri Ram said.

"Dhanyawaad prabhu." Sugreev said.

The next morning while Sugreev and Shri Ram had made a plan to kill Vali, Aahana and Aarashi knew Vali couldn't be killed like that as his wife Tara was a Sati. So they decided check out the kingdom of kishkindha.

Beautiful bustling city it was indeed, populated by monkeys and Vanars of all sorts.

There they reached a temple and their a priestess was telling the women about Maharani Tara and the unusual amount of Sindoor she always applies.

The priestess told the women that as long as Tara had the sindoor of Vali's name in the parting of her hair, till then he cannot be killed. Such was the power of her chastity.

After this, Aahana and Aarashi went to the forest area for a while and found a small bird singing the songs about Tara's chastity and her sindoor. An idea crossed their mind.

"Yeh tum jo Maharani Tara ke baare mai geet gaa rahe ho, kya woh sab satya hai ?" Aahana asked the bird.

"Sab satya hai." The bird chirped.

"Toh kya woh humesha apne maang mai sadev bhar-bhar ke sindoor lagati hai ?" Aarashi asked.

"Satya hai." The bird chirped.

"Mujhe nahi vishwas hota hai." Aahana said.

"Yeh satya hai ! Maine swayam dekha hai, jaise hi woh pratah kaal snaan karke aati hai toh bhar-bhar ke sindoor lagati hai." The bird chirped.

"Uchit hai." Aarashi said.

Both the girls left with a smirk on their faces as they got the way that would lead to Vali's death.

As they reached the Rishyamukh parvat and found a bruised and beaten and Hanuman ji aiding to his wounds.

"Inhe kya huya ?" Aahana asked.

"Humne socha ki Vali ko mai dwand ka awahan du aur tab Shri Ram usko piche se teer maar de. Kintu inhone prahar kiya hi nahi." Sugreev said.

"Arrey mitra Sugreev, tum aur Vali bilkul ek jaise dikhte ho. Yadi uski jagah tumhe teer lag jata toh ?" Shri Ram said.

"Shri Ram, yadi aap Vali ko teer maar bhi dete tab bhi Vali ki mrityu nahi hoti." Aarashi said.

"Kyu ?" He asked.

"Vali ki patni, Maharani Tara ek Sati hai. Aur kehte hai ki jab tak unke maang mai Vali ke naam ka sindoor hai tab tak uska vadh nahi kiya jaa sakta." Aahana said.

"Tab hum kya kare ? Ek Sati ke shraddha ki shakti ka tod toh kahi nahi." Laxman said.

"Kintu humne ek maarg dhundh liya hai." Aarashi said.

"Kaunsa maarg ?" Hanuman ji asked.

"Ek chhoti chidiya ne kaha ki Maharani Tara pratah kaal snan ke baad bhar-bhar ke sindoor lagati hai." Aahana said.

"Toh ?" All of them asked.

"Nahi samajh aaya ?" Aarashi asked, they shook their heads

"Arthat snan karte samaye unke maang mai Vali ke naam Sindoor nahi hota. Aur yadi aap uss samay Vali ko maro toh uski mrityu awashya hogi."  Aahana said.

They all looked at them with a shook expression. While the girls just smiled.

A/N

THIS IS TRUE, SHRI RAM KILLED VALI WHEN TARA WAS TAKING A BATH AND DIDN'T HAD SINDOOR IN THE PARTING OF HER HAIR. JUST IMAGINE HOW STRONG THE POWER OF HER CHASTITY WOULD HAVE BEEN.

FUN FACT : WHEN SUGREEV SHOWED THE TEARED CLOTH AND JEWELRY OF MATA SITA, SHRI RAM RECOGNIZED ALL OF THEM BUT LAXMAN ONLY RECOGNIZED HER PAYALS AND ANKLETS. BECAUSE HE ONLY EVER SAW HER FEET, SUCH WAS HIS CHASTITY AND HIS RESPECT TOWARDS HER.

HERE'S A MEME :
