The First Empress

Soft Spot

'People with good intentions make promises.
People with good character keep them.'

The three princesses were shocked to see such a transformation in that girl. She was docile and timid until the other day. They were no longer able to recognise the person in front of them.

Ponnarasi was the calmest one in the three of them. Poovarasi and Sendhamarai were fuming in anger.

Sendhamarai: Naanga unaku munnadiye Inga kalyanam pannavanga... Nee Inga vandhu 3 maasam kooda aagale...

Adhukulla ivlo thimira???

Vayasu le periyavangalku mariyadhai kudukanum num avangalkaga kaathu irukradhu thappu illa num solli tharaleiya???

Valarppu sari illa...

Poovarasi smirked by listening to the words spouted by the third princess. The first princess still had an expression of non-chalance.

Sangamithra was able to understand the torments the original host might have gone through at that moment.

They expected her to snap for the statement. Instead of it, her eyes started tearing up.

Sangamithra: Chinna ponnu naan. Theriyama pesunadhuku ipdi pesalama??? Naan vera desathule irundhu vandhava... Enaku ippo keka yaarum illa nu dhaane ipdi pesuringa...

At that time, Veera came to the first princess chamber to witness Sangamithra crying. He was spying on the fourth princess per his master's order. However, at this point, it seemed like they bullied her. Hence he made an entrance to save her from this situation.

After the other day's incidents, it seemed that his master was really interested in this young girl.

Ilavarase, aprama enaku paathu pannunga.

Veera: Ilavarasi Deviyaruku Vanakkam.

The second and third princess might not recognise Veera but the first princess remembered the commander who fought along with the crown prince.

Ponnarasi: Vaanga Thalapathiyare...

Veera did his vanakkam and turned towards the fourth princess.

Veera: Devi, ungaluku udambu sugam dhaane???

Ilavarasar kaalai ezhincha udane ungale dhaan kettaru.

Sangamithra clearly knew that the prince didn't ask about her. Even though they interacted the other day, she could clearly see there was no attraction in his eyes. This commander was really trying to save her.

That's why she teared up when she noticed his presence at the end of the chamber. Otherwise, she would have shown these princesses her eloquence skills.

Sangamithra: Avarukachi en mela paasam irukke...

Veera: Devi, neenga enga ilavarasarin manaivi... Ungale yaarku pidikadhu..

Ponnarasi: Thalapathiyare... Sangamithra akkanga naanga vilayadunadhe purinjikale..

Neenga varutha padama ponga... Naanga bathrama paathukrom ilavarasi eh...

Adhu mattum illama indha andhapurathuku naan dhaane poruppu...

She jangled the keys in her hand.

Ponnarasi: Ilavarasar kitte sollunga... Naanga Sangamithra ve nalla paathukrom nu.

Her words settled the situation. Veera wasn't able to probe further as all of them were his master's wives.

Veera: Anaithum ilavarasiyar poruppu..
