The Ramayana narrates the life story of Rama, a prince of Ayodhya, who is forced into a 14-year exile with his wife, Sita, and his half brother Lakshmana. Ravana, the demon king of Lanka, abducts Sita, prompting Rama to form an alliance with Sugriva and Hanuman to bring Sita back. Rama eventually defeats Ravana and rescues Sita, but doubts about her chastity later lead to her banishment from Ayodhya.
