The mother of all battles

The Ramayana quest concludes with an epic battle between Rama and the monkey army against the demons and their King Ravana.   Mere archery will not due.  Rama summons divine weapons and magical incantations to destroy Ravana at his lair on the island fortress of Lanka.   Victorious in battle, Rama is reunited with Sita and the mission is completed.
