Description
Ider-ider; Prabu Melayu and his entourage worship in a temple, and then hold audience in a taman (garden). Probably the 'Landing at Tuban' episode. Panji and Melayu meet and process on elephants. The procession is led by foreign soldiers. Their procession is met by Prabangsa and armed troops, and the king of Gegelang in the next audience scene draws his kris while a retainer hits a kulkul drum, showing that he thinks this is a hostile force.
