Mahitha : I am unable to believe this.
Adarsh : I understood. First tell me ! Which century is this ?
Mahitha : 16th century.
Adarsh : oh ! I'm from 20th century.
Mahitha : god ! Is this how men dress in 20th century ?
Adarsh : yeah ! Sorry I forgot to thank you ! I was extremely fascinated. Thanks for saving my life.
Mahitha : it's fine.
Adarsh : you are sweet soul.
Mahitha smiled.
Adarsh : where are you taking me now ?
Mahitha : to the place where you live.
Adarsh : you know that place ?
Mahitha : yes ! That's my favourite place. I'll sit near the bank and meditate everyday.
Adarsh : oh !
Mahitha : i even carved our empire's emblem on a stone when i was a kid. It's a little away from that place.
Adarsh : yeah ! I know that. It's a tourist site in our time !
Mahitha : what ?
Adarsh : the historians told that it is carved by a great sculpture artist from 16th century. It is on the left side if the river.
Mahitha : haha ! I'm not at all good in that.
Adarsh : so, you are believing me right ?
Mahitha : not fully ! But i guess I should believe you !
Adarsh : thank god !
As they reached the bank of the river they got down. Adarsh looked around with amusement. Mahitha is observing him.
Adarsh : you know something ? I always sit here and think. I feel like i am in the hold of some angels when i sit here.
Adarsh said by pointing towards the place where mahitha meditates everyday.
Mahitha : can i ask you something ?
Adarsh : yeah !
Mahitha : where did you build your house ?
Adarsh pointed towards the other end of the bank . That is the place where mahitha used to play along with her friends when she was a kid.
Mahitha smiled.
Adarsh : what's your kings name ?
Mahitha : mahadeva !
Adarsh : oh ! Sorry to say ! But ! He is the last emperor from his lineage.
Mahitha' eyes grew wide. She felt like her world shattered.
Mahitha : why ? What happened after him ?
Adarsh : he is dead in the war with a king named Vallabhadeva. Your king lost the battle and he died by killing himself as he felt humiliated. Nothing is mentioned about his heirs , etc...
Mahitha eye's welled up.
Mahitha : did vallabha deva's rule last for long time ?
Adarsh : yes ! His current generation heirs are still living in the palace. Which is located in that direction.
Adarsh pointed towards the place where her palace is located.
Mahitha : ok !
Adarsh : is your king a good person ?
Mahitha : yes he is !
Adarsh : what about his heirs ?
Mahitha : he just have a daughter. She seems to be a nice person.
Adarsh : oh ! Let's see what happens !
Mahitha : won't you go back ? How you will go back ?
Adarsh : my friend will come to my place tomorrow morning. Then he will get me backby figuring out something. Till then i should SOJOURN IN THE PAST.
Mahitha : ok ! You can stay in the cave which is located there.
Adarsh : what ? Cave ?
Mahitha : yeah ! Don't worry ! We store weapons in that cave. No animals will come there.
Adarsh : ok ! If you don't mind will you stay with me ?
Mahitha : Actually i have some work. I'll be back tomorrow early in the morning.
Adarsh got into a small boat like thing and went to the other end where the cave is located. As soon as he walked towards the cave he felt a dart hitting him . He turned around and saw mahitha who is smiling at him.
Mahitha : i am not a fool you storyteller ! I'll look upon you tomorrow. I have lot of work now.
Adarsh( murmurs before dropping into deep slumber ) : you deceived me lady !
