Prabu Tapa Agung had led a kingdom

Prabu Tapa Agung had led a kingdom in West Java for a long time. He was getting old and therefore wanted to choose a successor. But unfortunately, he had no son. He thought of choosing one of his daughters, Purbararang and Purbasari. But it wasn’t an easy choice. They were both very pretty and smart. The only difference was their temperament. Purbararang was rude and dishonest, while Purbasari was kind and caring. With those considerations, Prabu Tapa Agung finally chose Purbasari to be his successor.
Purbararang didn’t agree with her father’s decision. “It’s supposed to be me, Father. I’m the eldest daughter!” Purbararang said. Prabu Tapa Agung smiled. “Purbararang, to be a queen takes more than age. There are many other qualities that one must possess,” explained Prabu Tapa Agung wisely. “What does Purbasari have that I don’t?” Purbararang pouted. “You’ll find out when Purbasari has replaced me,” Prabu Tapa Agung answered.
After the discussion, Purbararang went back to her room. “Is there something wrong?” asked Indrajaya. Indrajaya is Purbararang’s future husband. “I’m upset! Father chose Purbasari as his successor and not me! I have to do something!” Purbararang said. Driven mad by her anger, she came to a witch and asked her to send rash all over Purbasari’s body. Before going to bed, Purbasari started to feel itch all over her body. She tried applying powder to her body, but it’s no use. Instead, the itching grew even worse. She didn’t want to scratch it, but she just couldn’t help it. In the next morning, there were scratch mark all over Purbasari’s body. “What happened to you?” asked Purbararang, pretending to be concerned. “I don’t know, sis. Last night, my body suddenly felt very itchy. I scratched and scratched, and this is what happened,” Purbasari answered. Purbararang shook her head. “You must have done something really awful. You’ve been punished by the gods!”
That day, the whole kingdom was scandalized. “What have you done, Purbasari?” demanded Prabu Tapa Agung. Purbasari shook her head. “I didn’t do anything that would upset the gods, Father,” she answered. “Then how can you explain what happened to your body?” Prabu Tapa Agung asked again. “If you don’t confess, I’ll banish you to the woods.” Purbasari took a deep breath. “Like I said before, I didn’t do anything wrong. And I’d rather be thrown into the woods than to confess to a deed I didn’t commit.”
After a short discussion with his advisor, Prabu Tapa Agung ordered Purbasari to be moved to the woods. Purbasari was very sad, but she couldn’t do anything to defy her father’s order. She was accompanied to the woods by a messenger. He built a simple hut for Purbasari. After the messenger left, suddenly a black monkey came to Purbasari’s hut. He carried a bunch of bananas. From behind him, some animals looked on. “Are the bananas for me?’ Purbasari asked. The black monkey nodded, as if he understood what Purbasari said. Purbasari took the bananas with pleasure. She also said thanks. The other animals that were looking on also seemed to smile. “Are you willing to be my friend?” Purbasari asked them. All the animals nodded happily. Although she was living by herself in the woods, Purbasari never lacked of supplies. Everyday, there were always animals bringing her fruits and fish to eat.
A long time had passed since Purbasari was banished to the woods, but her body still itched. At some places, her skin was even ulcerating. What am I supposed to do?” Purbasari sighed. The monkey who was sitting next to her stayed still, there were tears in his eyes. He hoped Purbasari would remain patient and strong.
One night, on a full moon, the monkey took Purbasari to a valley. There is a pond with hot spring water. The monkey suddenly spoke, “The water of this pond will heal your skin,” he said. Purbasari was surprised, ”You can talk? Who are you?” she asked. “You’ll find out, in time,” the monkey said. Purbasari didn’t want to force the monkey. She then walked to the pond. She bathed there. After a few hours, Purbasari walked out of the pond. She was shocked to see her face reflected on the clear pond water. Her face was beautiful again, with smooth and clean skin. Purbasari observed her entire body. There were no traces of any skin ailments. “I’m cured! I’m cured!” Purbasari shouted in joy. She quickly offered thanks to the gods and also to the monkey.
The news of Purbasari’s condition quickly spread to the kingdom, irritating Purbararang. She then accompanied by Indrajaya go to the woods to see Purbasari. Purbasari asked if she would be allowed to go home. Purbararang said she would let Purbasari return to the palace if Purbasari’s hair were longer than hers. Purbararang then let her hair down. It was so long, it almost touched the ground. But it turned out that Purbasari’s hair was twice longer than Purbararang’s hair.
“Fine, so your hair is longer than mine.” Purbararang admitted. “But there is one more condition you must fulfill, do you have a future husband who is handsomer than mine?” said Purbararang as she walked toward Indrajaya. Purbasari felt miserable. She didn’t have a future husband yet. So, without much thought, she pulled the black monkey beside her.
Purbararang and Indrajaya burst out, but their laughter didn’t last long. The monkey meditates and suddenly transformed into a very handsome young man, a lot more handsome than Indrajaya. “I’m a prince from a kingdom far away. I was cursed to be a monkey because of a mistake I committed. I could regain my true form only if there’s a girl who would be willing to be my wife,” said the young man.
Finally, Purbararang gave up. She accepted Purbasari as the queen, and also confessed everything she had done. “Please forgive me. Please don’t punish me,” Purbararang said, asking for forgiveness. Instead of being angry, Purbasari smiled. “I forgive you, sis,” she said. Soon after, Purbasari become queen. Beside her was the handsome prince, the former monkey known as Lutung Kasarung.

And I’d rather be thrown into the woods than to confess to a deed I didn’t commit.”Setelah diskusi singkat dengan penasihat, Prabu Tapa Agung memerintahkan Purbasari dipindahkan ke hutan. PURBASARI adalah sangat sedih, tapi dia tidak bisa melakukan apa saja untuk menentang Orde ayahnya. Ia didampingi di hutan oleh utusan. Ia membangun sebuah gubuk yang sederhana untuk Purbasari. Setelah utusan kiri, tiba-tiba Monyet hitam datang ke Purbasari's hut. Ia membawa sekelompok pisang. Dari belakang, beberapa hewan tampak. ' Adalah pisang untuk saya?' PURBASARI bertanya. Monyet hitam mengangguk, seolah-olah ia mengerti apa yang dikatakan Purbasari. PURBASARI mengambil pisang dengan senang hati. Dia juga mengatakan terima kasih. Hewan lain yang sedang pada juga tampak tersenyum. "Apakah Anda bersedia untuk menjadi teman saya?" PURBASARI meminta mereka. Semua binatang mengangguk bahagia.

Di beberapa tempat, kulitnya bahkan ulcerating. Apa yang seharusnya saya lakukan?" PURBASARI menghela napas. Monyet yang duduk di sampingnya tinggal masih, ada air mata di matanya.

Monyet tiba-tiba berbicara, "air kolam ini akan menyembuhkan kulit Anda", katanya. PURBASARI terkejut, "Anda dapat berbicara? Siapa yang kau?"Dia bertanya. "Anda akan menemukan, dalam waktu," kata monyet. PURBASARI tidak ingin memaksa monyet. Dia kemudian berjalan ke kolam. Dia mandi di situ. Setelah beberapa jam, Purbasari berjalan keluar dari kolam. Dia terkejut melihat wajahnya tercermin pada air kolam yang jelas. Wajahnya itu indah lagi, dengan kulit yang halus dan bersih. PURBASARI mengamati seluruh tubuhnya. Ada tidak ada jejak setiap penyakit kulit. "Saya sembuh! Saya sembuh!" PURBASARI berteriak dalam kegembiraan. Dia cepat menawarkan terima kasih kepada para dewa dan juga untuk monyet.Berita tentang kondisi Purbasari's cepat menyebar ke kerajaan, menjengkelkan Purbararang. Ia kemudian ditemani oleh Indrajaya pergi ke hutan untuk melihat Purbasari. PURBASARI bertanya jika ia akan diizinkan pulang. Purbararang mengatakan ia akan membiarkan Purbasari kembali ke Istana jika rambut Purbasari's lebih lama dari miliknya. Purbararang kemudian membiarkan rambutnya turun. Hal ini begitu lama, itu hampir menyentuh tanah. Tapi ternyata Purbasari's rambut itu dua kali lebih lama dari Purbararang's rambut."Baik, sehingga rambut Anda lebih panjang dari saya." Purbararang mengakui. "Tapi ada satu syarat lain yang Anda harus memenuhi, Apakah Anda memiliki calon suami yang handsomer dari saya?" kata Purbararang saat dia berjalan ke arah Indrajaya. PURBASARI merasa sengsara. Dia tidak memiliki calon suaminya. Jadi, tanpa banyak pemikiran, ia menarik Monyet hitam sampingnya.Purbararang dan Indrajaya meledak, tapi tawa mereka tidak berlangsung lama. Monyet bermeditasi dan tiba-tiba berubah menjadi seorang anak muda sangat tampan, lebih tampan daripada Indrajaya. "Aku seorang pangeran dari kerajaan yang jauh. Saya telah dikutuk menjadi monyet karena kesalahan yang saya lakukan. Saya bisa mendapatkan kembali saya bentuk yang benar hanya jika ada seorang gadis yang bersedia untuk menjadi istri saya,"kata si pria muda.Akhirnya, Purbararang menyerah. Ia menerima Purbasari sebagai Ratu, dan juga mengakui segala sesuatu yang ia lakukan. "Tolong Maafkan aku. Harap tidak menghukum saya,"kata Purbararang, meminta pengampunan. Bukannya marah, Purbasari tersenyum. "Aku memaafkan Anda, sis," katanya. Segera setelah itu, Purbasari yang menjadi ratu.
