Meanwhile many things were happening in Lanka. Ravana was disturbed by the havoc wrought by a single vanara. The rakshasas urged Ravana to raise a. huge army and rout Rama and his vanara hordes.

Vibhishana, who had only his brother's good at heart, advised Ravana to surrender and restore Sita to Rama. Ravana was angry when he heard this counsel and ordered Vibhishana to leave the kingdom immediately.
