| Sidaa is Kidnapped by Totsagan |
Samanagkhaa sees Ram and Sida in the Forest, recounts the tale to Totsagan, who falls in love with Sidaa. Totsagan sends Marees to lure Phra Ram, himself using magick to turn himself into the apparition of the hermit Sage Ruesi Sutham in order to woo her.
Naang Samanagkhaa (who we have already read about in a previous chapter about the Coronation of Phra Ram & Totsarot's death), who was still in bereavement for the loss of her
beloved husband Chiwaha, who was murdered accidentally by her brother Totsagan, was wandering in the Himapant Forest to diminish her sadness and also to find herself a new consort.

She came upon Phra Ram and instantly fell in love with him; she appproached him but he refused all advances by Naang Samanagkhaa. Naang Samanagkhaa became angry because of this, and hit Naang Siidaa in the face. Phra Laks grabbed Naang Samanagkhaa and cut off her ears nose, hands and feet.
Samanagkhaa returned to Langka and told the tale to Totsagan, as well as recounting how beautiful Naang Siidaa was - which caused Totsagan to fall into a fascination with Siidaa. He ordered Marees to turn himself into a golden deer and lure Siidaa into asking Phra Ram into chasing the deer to catch it for her - Marees was also ordered to then use Phra Ram's voice to call Phra Laks also out of the Ashram in the forest whgere they were guarding Siidaa. After this, Totsagan would enter as the Ruesi Sutham and Woo the lady into going with him.
Pic Left; Marees.
When Totsagan realises that there is no way to coax Naang Siidaa into loving him, he returns to his 20 armed 10 faced self and grabs her packing her under his arms and makes off with her. This event was followed by the story of the Himapant animal and Bhoddhissattwa (of which many Himapant animals represent), "Nok Sadaayu", losing his life trying to save Siidaa, and his passing on of the news of Totsagan abductiuong her to Phra Ram.This story is already published and can be read by
