Hearing that Vali was mortally wounded, Tara hurried to his side, with her son Angada. She found the Vanara army fleeing in every direction, as Rama had felled Vali with a single arrow!When Tara asked them how they could desert their master and run like cowards, they advised her to do the same, for death in the form of Rama had slain Vali. Tearful Tara told her advisors that having lost Vali the kingdom was no longer of any use for her. It was then that she saw the lone figure of Vali! He who had killed hordes of Rakshasas single-handed whose fame and might were renowned lay dying in the dust! Tara saw Rama, Lakshmana and Sugriva, but the noble lady brooked no resentment against them, as she knew the fault to be Vali's. Looking at Tara and Angada grieve, Sugriva also broke down!
