This Second introductory pod cast before we begin to tell the tale of the Thai Ramakien, denotes the first list of some the main protagonists, split into two factions.

These two factions are the two different sides to war against each other, which is the issue that is used to maintain the continuance of the story throughout the whole epic myth.

The reason they were against each other, is because one of the sides, namely, the Yaksa (ยักษ์), who serve, under the command of the Demon giant Totsagan (Ravana), make the mistake, of kidnapping the newlywed princess and wife of Prince Rama are as we call him in the Thai Ramakien; "Pra Ram".

This is of course, the lady Sita, who we call "Nang Sida" in Thai. A whole quest begins in order to recapture the princess, and return her to her husband. Around this central theme, the story unfolds into a multitude of different Sub chanters, which are worthy of the title of epic myths, in their own right.

This mini pod cast gives a short list and a very short explanation of each of the major role players and protagonists who will be seen to reappear often during the story.
