The Power of Love

Betrayal and Defeat

The Swaymvar was in full swing, with the royalmasts fluttering in the gentle breeze and the entire palace adorned with colorful flowers and sparkling jewels. The air was filled with the enthusiastic chatter of the people who had come to witness the grand event.

As each Prince arrived, they were welcomed with open arms and shown their seats. One by one, they attempted to lift the divine sword, but to no avail. The sword remained steadfast in its place, as if mocking the efforts of the Princes.

Roop, sitting on his throne, prayed in his heart for his destiny to unfold the way it was meant to be. Whenever a Prince came to attempt the sword, Roop closed his eyes and hoped that no one would be able to lift it except for his beloved Prince Var.

King Samrat, on the other hand, laughed evilly whenever a Prince failed to lift the sword. He enjoyed seeing the hopeful faces of the Princes turn into disappointment as they realized they were not the chosen one.

Yet, no one had yet been able to lift the divine sword, and the tension in the air was palpable. The crowd waited with bated breath, hoping that someone would be able to fulfill the final rule of the Swaymvar and win the hand of Prince Roopeshwar.

Meanwhile, as Prince Var, Angad, and Megh were rushing towards the Swaymvar, they were suddenly ambushed by a group of dark forces sent by King Bhaargav. Var drew his bow and arrow, while Angad unsheathed his sword. They stood back to back, ready to fight.

The dark forces closed in on them, attacking from all sides. Var and Angad fought with all their might, their weapons clashing against the swords and axes of the enemy. Megh, standing at a safe distance, watched in awe as his friends battled against the odds.

The fight was dangerous, and both Var and Angad suffered injuries in the process. But they didn't give up. They fought on, determined to protect each other and defeat the enemy. At one point, Megh found himself in danger, but Var and Angad quickly sprang into action, saving him from harm.

"Is everyone alright?" Var asked, panting heavily.

"I'm fine," Megh replied, while Angad groaned in pain.

"We can't stop now," Var said, gritting his teeth. "We have to reach the Swaymvar on time."

With renewed determination, they continued their journey, their spirits unbroken despite the injuries they had sustained.

As the sun began to set, the atmosphere at the Swaymvar grew more and more tense. One by one, the princes had come forward to try and lift the divine sword, but each one had failed, much to the amusement of King Samrat. Roop watched nervously, his heart pounding with anticipation.

Suddenly, a hush fell over the crowd as a new figure appeared. It was King Bhaargav, known for his cruelty and thirst for power. He strode confidently towards the sword, his eyes gleaming with malice.

"Step aside, fools," he sneered, shoving aside the princes who stood in his way. "None of you are worthy of this sword. It is I who will claim it and win the hand of Roopeshwar."

King Bhaargav stood in the center of the arena, surrounded by all the guests, saints, and kings. His eyes gleamed with arrogance and cruelty as he looked around at the assembled crowd. He sneered at the princes and princesses, the queens and the kings, and the holy men and women who had come from far and wide to attend the Swayamvar.

"You are all here to witness my victory," he declared. "For I, King Bhaargav, am the only one worthy of holding the divine sword!"

The crowd murmured nervously as Bhaargav walked towards the sword, which was still embedded in the stone pedestal. But just as he was about to touch it, Prince Roop stepped forward, fear etched on his face.
