Bharata returned back home and discovered what his mother had done, and he is sad that he no longer has his brother or father. He then vowed to not be king and to bring Rama home so he could be king. Once Bharata found Rama he told him to come home and to become king, but Rama refused because he must obey his late father. This is because Rama believes that what makes a person good is their deeds, and that by ignoring his late father's orders he would be betraying him. I do not agree with Rama's decision though, because once the king died he no longer had power, and Bharata, being the new king, should have the power to right the old king's wrongs. Rama then continues to go deeper into the forest and along the way he meets various sages and battles against the demons. Rama then met a Rakshasi who is Ravana's sister and jokingly suggested she try and seduce his brother. The Rakshasi was angry so she attacked the brothers, but she then ran away. She then went to her brother who said he would take care of Rama and his brother with an army of 14,000 Rakashasa. However, Khara's army was defeated. Ravana then decided to talk with Maricha to decide what he could do, and he was told to leave Rama alone. However, Ravana decided to kidnap Sita. Once kidnapped Ravana tried to get her to become his queen but she stayed strong. Jatayu the vulture then tells Rama what happened and Rama and his brother set out for the ape king.
