The troops, stunned by the developments, ran to Hanuman and Sugreeva. Hanuman was gifted with a divine vision and realised that these boys were the sons of Rama and Seeta. Kush pulled the arrow out from Luv’s unconscious body. Luv revived immediately. Meanwhile, Rama was completely shocked at the news of Bharata also being defeated and made unconscious by the boys. He took his army and Vibheeshana also and set off for the ashrama where the battle was taking place. Like his brothers, his first reaction on seeing the boys was of love and fascination. Calling them closer, he asked them who they were, who their parents were. “You seem to be the embodiment of courage and strength since you have defeated my entire army!” he exclaimed. The boys retorted, “Don’t try to flatter us! Pick up your weapons and fight!”
