Chapter 93: War begins: Lakshman is down!

War begins. Heavy fighting. Meghnath’s Brahmasuthra downs Lakshman. Rama and Ravana are equal almost. Sun down. War stops. Rama is desperate for Lakshman. Jambuvan says only one person can cure L and that is Lanka doctor Sushenth. In a flash, H brings the doc. Rama pleads that for a doc, no enemy, no caste, no side has to be taken. Their only aim is to cure the patients. Doc looks at L and says Sanjeevini plant is required. It sparkles in night. It is available only at Mount Gandmadham. It has to happen before morning. Hanuman goes to get it at night.

Ravana and son are happy that L is down. Mandodhari is concerned that this will make Rama more durious. Ravana says by sun down, tomorrow, Rama too would be down.
