Karna, a demigod, a mortal, a son, a brother and a good king.
Karna the man who can go to any extent to break the chain of casteism and bring changes in the world even challenging the gods.
The man who can do anything to get justice for...
Both the King and new queen woke up early before the sunrise. Karn went for his morning ritual near the river to pay respect to his father and Yamini accompanied him. Karna knew that his father's open declaration about his parentage would create an uproar in entire Aryavarta. He had to tackle it very carefully as now the upper class would use it to say that as Karna was a demi god that was why he was a great warrior. But he had to show everyone that it is not his godly connection but his determination and talent that made him the Magadhraj today. Both Karna and Yamini prayed to his/her father/father in law and asked for his blessings. The sunrays fell on them directly making everything golden around them as if The supreme Sun God was blessing them. Then they came back to the Palace. Then Karna asked the maids to prepare Yamini for the big day.
Yamini was confused, 'What big day Radheya?'
Karna, 'Yamini, today is an auspicious day, so I am going to coronate as the queen and regent ruler of Magadha. You will have equal position as me in this kingdom. Even your family is coming from Dwarka. So get ready. our Kulguru Viswamitra is waiting for you.'
Yamini was shocked. In Aryavarta no one did this before. Giving the queen the equal status of the king and even coronating her as the regent was something unheard. But this was Magadha under the rule of Radheya Karna the king of Radheya Vansh who wore his mother's name as an honor. So this was perfectly expected from him.
The maids gave her a royal bath and then she wore white saree with no royal jewelleries. Only her mangalsutra and anklets were present. The she was escorted to the royal court where she was asked to sit in front of a havan kund. She saw that representatives from all their allied kingdoms, her guru Shukracharya and her family from Dwarka were also present there. Sage Viswamitra, Guru Parshuram, Guru Shukracharya and other priests performed the yagna for her coronation where she gave the ahuti to the sacred fire. Then they pour milk and holy water on her and then she was escorted back to her chamber. There Radha, Susshala and other ladies helped her in wearing a Red saree with red angvastra. She wore minimal jewelleries and then she came back to the court. She saw Karna was standing in front of the throne and now instead of one, there were two thrones. She went near her husband, then the royal mother Radha put the crown on her head, Adhirath put a tilak on her head and Karna offered her the royal sword of Magadha. Then she looked at the court and said, 'The citizens of Magadha, I Yashodasuta, Nandaputri, Shukracharya shishya Yamini is taking vow to fulfill all my duties towards the citizens of Magadha. I, the wife of king Aditya and Kulvadu of Radheya Vansh will always keep my subjects and my kingdom at first before my comfort and even my whole life. I will not think twice before laying my life for my country also not before taking the lives of the ones who will dare to harm my subjects and my kingdom.'

Everyone cheered. All the sages blessed her especially Shukracharya. He was happy as he being the teacher of Asurs, he never got the deserved respect. But what nobody understood that he never wanted the asurs to torture common human but all he wanted recognition for the Asurs. He also blessed Karna for being respectful to all.
