Here comes Rama to the rescue! Finally after Hanuman's message and report back about Sita. Rama is angry and enraged. He wants to fight Ravana himself and bring back his love. This is another exciting and intense part of the book but now it is all about Rama. Throughout his journey to get Sita, Rama encounters a lot of problems because well Ravana is trying to stop him. So Ravana would ask help from his brothers and son to help defeat Rama and his army. Of course, all of them failed and Rama was able to win all the battles. Even Ravana's magicians and giant couldn't stop Rama.
The part of where Rama die was really intense, I mean how could he die?! He's the main character but Hanuman was able to save him and the others with medicine from the Medicine Hill. I mean.. how important is Hanuman's character? Without him everyone will still be dead and Rama would never be able to slay Ravana and get Sita back! Another important character was Ravava's good brother Vibhishana. He refused to help Ravana and tried to convince him to let Sita go but Ravana wouldn't listen and instead used his son and lost Indrajit. Poor Indrajit... I thought he was a good son for wanting to help his father fight. Although he tried to get rid of Rama and his army, he wanted to help his father. But it sure didn't stop Ravana from backing down the fight, instead he is even more angry and wants to fight Rama himself. Why doesn't Ravana just let Sita go?! He already lost his son.. but Ravana is so full of pride he cannot lose. It is pretty sad that Ravana cried when Indrajit died.. kind of revealed that Ravana has somewhat a heart? He did care for his son enough to cry about it and now he feels revengeful.
I think this is probably the most intense part of Ramayana. Rama is such a hero being able to slaughter all these demons and gods in order to get his love back, but without his friends he would have never succeed. I think that is one of the most important significance is "teamwork" without a team you can't do anything a lone. Without Hanuman and the others, Rama would never be able to slay Ravana's allies.
