<h1><center>Karana, a short story</center></h1>
Karana really wants to be a nobleman. He felt the need to improve his fortune. When he saw the nobles going around riding horse-drawn carriages he was always interested. Once upon a time a teacher of the nobles was touring with the nobles. They rested in the village where Karana lived. The teacher named Dorana. This teacher is very well known as a master of war and state science.
Dorana paid attention to Karana who came to the place of the nobles overnight. He knew that the young man was very intelligent and talented. because also began to intend to visit Dorana. he wants to learn a variety of knowledge both the science of warfare and the science of state. Until one meeting they met.
"What is your name?"
"Karana Sir"
"You look very smart and I see you are very skilled in using weapons. Do you have a great desire?"
"I want to study with you. I want to be able to serve the country."
Dorana paused. He really wanted to make this young man a student but still needed to know who his parents were and where his parents were.
"Who are your parents?"
"My father's name is Radha, a royal coachman."
Dorana took a deep breath.
"Too bad you can't be my student. To be my student you must be a noble child. I have never taken students who are not from nobility."
The feeling of being mixed up. Embarrassed, disappointed, angry, sad and regret united in the chest. His face turns red. With shame he ran away from Dorana. He ran fast away from the field. He did not go home. he ran into the forest and promised never to return before becoming a nobleman.
In his escape because of thinking many things. he cursed himself for being born a coachman so Dorana refused. Even though Karana is smart and talented, she is only a coachman who is a low caste, not a high caste so she cannot be a student of Dorana. He cursed himself who was born as a coachman.
"I never asked to be born as a coachman, but why is the world unfair God?" Karana shouted in the forest.
The petition and the forest dwellers heard Karana's anger. No animal or creature dares to bother a person who is desperate. During the trip Karana passed through the forest without the slightest fear.
"I'd rather be killed by a wild animal than live in shame."
On the way he met a powerful warrior named Parasurama. Parasurama himself is a powerful warrior who is looking for students who are not nobles. When I saw Karana walking aimlessly knowing there was something special about this young man.
"Who are you son?"
"My name is Karana?"
"Why are you roaming the woods alone?"
I want to find dead.
Prasau rama smiled and laughed.
"Why are you laughing? Are you laughing at me too? Are you also the same as other people? Laughing at someone else's bad luck?"
"Don't be offended like that. I laugh because it turns out there are always people in the world who have the same fate and desires."
"You mean?"
"I am searching for the way of death ... I will kill every noble I meet. Actually not to kill them, but Iigin die in their hands. During this time no one kstaria can defeat me. I really hate them. I always love nobles or knights to find my death. I'm also looking for students to educate me to become strong people. "
"Then did you find it?"
"Not yet because it will only take students who are not knights or aristocrats."
Karana was stunned. She found a different teacher from Dorana. Parasurama is the opposite of Dorna's teacher who only wants to teach the warrior caste. When asked Parasurama whether he was from the knight caste because the answer was no, because Karana did not know whose bloodline he was. All he knows is Radha's father, a royal coachman. Eventually, Parasurama accepted him as his student

Parasurama was very impressed with his intelligence and talent Karana. Parasurama made him a favorite student. He has taught all the science of fighting.
"I'm sure you will be an unrivaled"
"But you must remember that it will all disappear if you become a knight. The first time you have to meet with me as an enemy.

One time Parasurama had taught the science of wisdom asleep in the lap of Karana. A scorpion crept in Karana's body. Karana was amused but he was afraid he would wake Parasurama. Because holding the scorpion's feet without causing a shocking movement. Kalajeengkin llau stings him. Because still hold so as not to cause movement. He did not want to wake his teacher, the scorpion's poison was getting deeper into the nerves of the body of Karana. But Karana was willing to restrain the pain caused by the scorpion's sting.

When Parasurama woke up he was surprised to see his student able to endure the pain without waking himself up. Arna's body looks increasingly blue.
"Why are you only silent when your body is exposed to scorpion poison?"
parasurama takes the leaves from the bag and attaches it to the sting. Instantly Karana's body recovered.
"" I don't want the teacher to wake up from sleep "Karana answered honestly.
"What? Just so I don't wake up? Now who do you say you are?" Parasurama's tone rose.
Parasurama was angry because he knew it was impossible because it was not a knight caste. Only the knights sacrifice and endure pain for others.
"Now you leave here and never come back. Don't let us meet because when we meet I make sure we will fight each other."
Parasurama has lifted a giant ax. Because know that ax is a mainstay weapon of Parasurama. Because he knew that Parasurama was furious even though he didn't know the cause.
Parasurama drove out Karana because Parasurama felt that the student had lied to her. Karana himself doesn't know whether he's a Knight or not.
Because of confusion and sadness because he was kicked out by his favorite teacher for no reason that he knew. He continued to run until he arrived in a city.
Instantly he stopped when he saw someone he knew. He saw Dorana the teacher who had refused it. He was showing off the magic of his students to the townspeople. Teacher Dorana himself was very proud of his favorite student Gandarf who was very good at fighting both armed with swords, arrows or gda. Karana is interested in challenging Gandarf. He wanted to prove to Dorana that Dorana was wrong when the duu refused to be a student.


But Karana was disappointed again because only one of them was entitled to challenge the nobility. When asked if Karana was from the Knights, Karana's answer was only a chariot child. This answer made Karana a mockery.
"It's not proper for the coachman to challenge us."
Because it can only bow down sadly. He realized his status he was not a nobleman.
Suddenly a nobleman named Garyada got up.
"I made the nobility. I adopted it as my bodyguard. Courage and greatness are not valued by nobles and whose descendants."
Garyada hugs Karana. 
Karana defeated Gandarf. This proves that he deserves to be counted as a knight.
Garyada's defense was very imprint in Karana, He became very loyal to Garyada. Appaun who is done will be defended wholeheartedly even in the event of wrongdoing.
After all this time with Garyada. Karana's fame is increasing. Until one day came parasurama to the city. He succeeded in killing several nobles.
"I'll face the warrior, Garyada," Karana said to Garyada, saying good-bye.
He immediately met Parasurama.
"Teacher," Karana said.
"Now we are not teachers and students anymore. You should not hesitate against me."
Finally they were involved in a fierce battle. Parasurama is already using a giant clown. because a little daunted but he wants Paasurama's sentence.
"This ax won't be able to hurt a loved one."
Parasurama struck the ax but it never hit Karana. Until there is a chance because of piercing the heart of Parasurama with the spear used. Parasurama collapsed. Karana approached his teacher and hugged Parasurama.
"I'm sorry, teacher"
"You're not wrong. I have to thank you because you managed to take me to ideals."
Parasurama breathed his last in the lap of Karana.
The success of defeating Parasurama made Karana the Kingdom's main knight.
