There lived a King named Prabu Kamandanu, his face was handsome and full of mustaches, his body was tall. His physical appearance makes him a public figure of a true leader. King Kamandanu always prioritized the interests of the people rather than personal interests, and became the dream of women. Unlike other kings who had many consorts, Prabu had a loyal attitude towards his partner. He only had one consort named Dewi Larasati. His wife is very grateful to have an ideal husband like King Kamandanu. Dewi Larasati has a very beautiful face like an angel, even the news of the Queen's beauty has been heard throughout the Pringsewu area.
As the role of a Queen and the wife of King Kamandanu, Dewi Larasati also contributed to the leadership of the King. Because every time there was a problem in the kingdom, apart from discussing it with the royal staff, the king also invited Dewi Larasati to join the discussion by giving the best advice. The Queen has extraordinary intelligence when combined with her husband's leadership.
The kingdom he leads is in the Pringsewu area, and the name of his kingdom is the Pringsewu Kingdom. King Kamandanu was highly respected and loved by his people because of his leadership. Thanks to the King's leadership, the Pringsewu kingdom became prosperous and fertile, both in terms of economy, agriculture, defense and finance, all went well and had rapid progress. Not only talented as a leader, he was also an expert in martial arts, so that the palace soldiers were well guided by him to become the palace's stronghold when the enemy attacked. Plus the strategic location of the government palace and fertile land, making it a gemah ripah lohjinawi kingdom.
Prabu Kamandanu and Dewi Larasati's happiness increased when Dewi Larasati became pregnant after ten years of marriage. The long wait they have been waiting for has finally come. Several physicians were invited to examine the Queen's womb, most of them said that the child she was carrying was a girl.
Hearing the news of the Queen's pregnancy and the people cheered happily at the birth of the future princess. With pleasure Prabu Kamandanu celebrated his wife's pregnancy with a meal, all the people and royal palace staff were invited to a party at the Pringsewu Royal Palace.
When Dewi Larasati was nine months pregnant, it was time for the Queen to give birth to a baby daughter who was as beautiful as her mother's face, but after giving birth, Dewi Larasati died. King Kamandanu was very sad and devastated. Sadness also enveloped the Pringsewu Kingdom because of the Queen's departure.
When the King was in his room because he was sad, suddenly a bright light appeared in the King's room, and it turned out that the light had changed into Dewi Larasati. Dewi Larasati's body was radiant and her back had beautiful butterfly wings, as well as the fragrant smell of ylang in the King's room.
"What is this light, please...please...?!" shouted the prabu in fright, but the door to the king's room was locked.
"Kanda Kamandanu?" said Dewi Larasati.
"Dinda Larasati, aren't you dead? We will bury your body behind the palace," said Prabu Kamandanu as he approached Dewi Larasati.
"Don't come closer, Kanda, don't touch me again, I have become an angel after giving birth to a human child, forgive Dinda, for lying to you all this time," said Dewi Larasati.
"What do you mean Dinda? I don't understand your words, please come back to me, I, your children and our people need a queen like you, is Dinda really going to leave us?" whined King Kamandanu as he sat down and asked for his hand.
"Actually, I am the incarnation of an angel in Pringsewu Lake. In the past, we met at Pringsewu Lake, that is where I came from. Kanda once asked about my parents, I answered that my parents had died, but actually my parents are still alive. My parents are gods. and Dewi, we are a nation of gods, we live forever," answered Dewi Larasati, sobbing.
"Then can Dinda return to being Queen again in my kingdom? Dinda has not answered Kanda's question," replied King Kamandanu who wanted to continue the story of the Angel.
"Sorry, Kanda. I can't, I have to go back to my parents, in that lake there is the magical kingdom of the gods and angels. I will be the heir, I will be the Queen there, because I am the only child, and now I am not can again become human," said Dewi Larasati.
"Then, when Dinda becomes my wife, how can Dinda turn into a human?" said King Kamandanu.
"Because I love you too much Kanda, every time Kanda rides and passes Pringsewu Lake, I am always amazed to see Kanda. My heart flutters to see Kanda's handsomeness and gallantry. But, Kanda cannot see my form because I am in the unseen world," said Dewi Larasati.
"Then can Dinda turn into a human by loving me?" said Prabu Kamandanu.
"For the sake of becoming human, I meditate in Pringsewu Cave, but with very severe conditions. When I give birth to a child, I will die and become an angel again, while the body that is buried is a body given by God. If only Kanda had not received my love, My human being is just useless, because indeed my goal of being a human is only to love you Kanda," said Dewi Larasati, sobbing.
"So that's why Dinda delayed the pregnancy of our child for up to ten years," said Prabu Kamandanu.
"Yes, Kanda. Every time Kanda gives me a child's seed, I always throw it away with the power of my angel. Even though I used to be human, my angel's magical power is still stored in me, that is also what makes my beauty not fade with time. I do this so that I can stay long live with you Kanda, this love that makes me become like that, "replied Dewi Larasati.
"It's really hard, Dinda, for your love for me, Dinda, is there no other way, so we can get back together again?" asked Prabu Kamandanu.
"There is Kanda, but the conditions are quite tough," said Dewi Larasati.
"What are the conditions Dinda?" said Prabu Kamandanu.
"Kanda must become a complete God, Kanda must meditate in the Pringsewu cave, after meditating Kanda will die, and you can become a complete God and live with me in the kingdom of Telaga Pringsewu," said Dewi Larasati.
"Dinda, if I die now, what about my kingdom? What about my people? And what about our children? They all still need me, but in my heart I really want to be with you Dinda," said Prabu Kamandanu.
"Kanda is indeed a good king, who always puts the interests of his people first. I have another way so that one day we can be together forever," said Dewi Larasati. "Then, how do Dinda?"
"I will give you a gift. I will give you the implant of an angel maiden, the implant can make you live forever and you can choose the day of Kanda's death, the implant also makes Kanda stay young. Kanda's handsomeness will not fade with time. Lead your kingdom first, until our child can become the successor to our throne, after that, you can stay with me to become a god forever," answered Dewi Larasati while giving flower implants to Prabu Kamandanu at the table.
"Then how do you use this object, Dinda?" asked King Kamandanu.
"Grab the implant, while taking a deep breath. If successful, the implant will disappear because it has entered your body, and the power of an angel has merged with you, Kanda," answered Dewi Larasati.
"Okay, I will do it, Dinda," said Prabu Kamandanu. Prabu Kamandanu then held the implant and took a deep breath according to his wife's instructions. Instantly the King's hands shook and the King's entire body shook like a stream of lightning. Prabu's sweat came out during the process of combining the object into his body.
"Aaaaaaaaargh...Dinda vibration what is this?" shouted Prabu Kamandanu.
"Hold on Kanda, that's the process, it's only a few minutes," answered Dewi Larasati.
"Aaaaaaah! Huuuuuuu," groaned the King when finished with the fusion of the implant.
"Kanda, I have two requests for you," said Dewi Larasati. "What Dinda, I hope I can do it," replied King Kamandanu.
"The first request is to bury my body near the Pringsewu lake near the Pringsewu cave, and set aside on the right side to bury your body when you die to become a god and live with me," pleaded Dewi Larasati.
"Okay Dinda. I will comply with your request," replied King Kamandanu.
"Second request, give our daughter the name Roro Ayu Sekarwati, or call her princess Sekarwati," asked Dewi Larasati.
"Okay dinda, I also haven't thought about giving our child a name," replied Prabu Kamandanu.
"Kanda, it's time for Dinda to go, carry out my request, see you at the lake kingdom of my angel, Kanda. I will always wait for you and always love you, Kanda. I will always miss you," said Dewi Larasati.
"Goodbye Dinda, I will always miss you," replied Prabu Kamandanu. tears flowed down his cheeks.
