- Sita played right into his trap --> Mirachi drawing Rama away and dying while pretending to be Rama in danger
- Ravana takes Sita against her will --> in his own arms in this version
- Sita sees Hanuman and Surgiva in this version and leaves them clue to give to Rama when he comes looking
- She drops a jewlery trail
- She tells the forest by her home to tell Rama what happened to her but when Rama asks they are too scared to give up Ravana
- Indra comes to consolidate Sita
- Tells Sita that Ravana can't force himself on women that are not wanting or his head will explode -> cursed by Nalakubara
- Sita is the first women since Rambha to not give into Ravana's charm
- An old wife of a dead sage lives until she can see Rama and tell him what to do and where Sita is
- Savari is the director of Rama to Hanuman --> Hanuman is to serve Rama as his Lord (fiercely loyal)
- Abandoned as a baby and hungry, he reached for the sun thinking it was a mango
- He later thought Rahu was a mango and was trying to take bites out of it making him angry
- Hanuman also thought Indra was a mango and tried to take a bite out of him when he slammed him to the ground injurying him
- The wind god quit blowing to take care of his abandoned son --> Indra gave Hanuman eternal life
- The expedition:
- Rama gives Hanuman a symbol of his search to give to Sita when he finds her --> ring Sita's dad gave her after they married
- Swayampraha is the caretaker of an illusion world where the expedition to the south (Lanka) gets delayed
- Angada refuses to return a failure and prepares to die while Hanuman and Jambavan, bear king, ponder new plans
