As the ink embraced the majestic feather, it became the medium unleashing her every single thought right from her heart to that scroll, leaving every single word of hers to carry on its own significance. Rukmini found herself dwindling as her heart continued making its imprints on that scroll and her palmcrease tinted with the colours, pouring herself & her emotions as well as her woes,as the letter was getting written down, she got herself entangled in between keeping herself calm and get her thoughts going to mingle with the words properly and not crossing the lines of modesty; also she had to finish it as early as possible!!!!
Soon, Vaidarbhi found herself taken away as she realised the empowerment arising within her. She felt a sudden surge of enlightment paving the way for herself, as if her dearest dark lord was calling up to her, as if he was awaiting the message to arrive at Dwarka. She took a deep breath & again started writting; letting her heart downpour her devotion, her love, her feelings and her utmost submission towards her lord to get penned in that colour, the colour of love, completely oblivious that this letter was going to be honoured and recalled as the first ever love letter of the world.
" My dearest lord ,
I'm not sure if I should address you as my husband or the root cause of my existence, it seems really hard to figure out, so i'm begging your mercy for this. I know you 'd be thinking of how a woman can forget the rules set by this society and get ready to write down her feelings this easily; crossing the limits of the modesty of a woman, that too, being a princess!!!!!
But trust me; I am left with no other option than this one!!! I have been forced to go completely against the willpower of mine and my father; by the emperor of Magadha & Chedi, accompanied and supported by my eldest brother
Rukmi, who has been brainwashed thoroughly, to showcase the audacity to invade the land which has been protected by the godhead, merely to take the revenge of the death of Kans,although Vidarbha has no known enmity towards Yadava clan, oh Murari!!!
You must be wondering why is this message for, wherein a princess of a reknowned state is begging in front of you to rescue her, sometimes she is addressing you as her lord, and on the other hand, she is talking about the invasions on the holy soil of Mathura, that's been under the protection of the protector of the universe !!!!
That's because it's the duty of a princess who should pay to the heeds of the subjects of her land as well as protecting them from the aftermath of an unnecessary war.
And right now, neither am I in that position to abstain them from the terrors of waging a war; nor do I have the courage of going against my eldest brother as he has become so ruthless that he wouldn't even hesitate to kill me or my father just to please a mighty and heartless ruler like Jarasandha....and that is what I absolutely hate,oh Keshava!
You have always been a protector to them who sought their shelter under your, oh Giridhari; also you are the one who had the dare to dance on the hood of the serpent, Kaliya and show Jarasandh what his position is,oh Madhava!!!!
Henceforth, the princess of a vassal kingdom of Jarasandha, Vidarbha, I , Rukmini, pay homage to you and request you to come to my land & win me and save my father, king Bhishmaka; don't let any random & lustful person, like Shishupal and others who are just like jackles, take away the offering of the lion among men i.e. you, oh Mukunda!!!
I, the princess of Vidarbha, Rukmini have fallen for you by hearing the tells of your greatness & valor; even before our first meeting in Mathura, and I have fixed my shameless mind upon you, oh Krishna!!! And I only want to be yours, even if you refuse to make me your wife, then I'll die honourably & still wait for you, even if it takes millions of births!!!
I'll wait for your arrival, oh Madhusudana!!!!
Rukmini can only be yours, and no one else!!! Just like how Mata Parvati had done her penance in order to get Mahadeva as her consort, Rukmini will follow her footfall and won't stop her penance until she is bestowed to be yours!!!!
And if you have considered me to be eligible for yourself, kindly do the favour of rescuing my father and please don't kill my brothers, including prince Rukmi!!!
I have attached the secret pathway from Dwarka to Vidarbha. As a new bride, I have to do the worshipping of Maa Girija; it's a ritual for the bride in Vidarbha, I'll be waiting there for your arrival!!!
My wedding has been fixed on the upcoming Purnachandra Tithi( full moon date ). And I sincerely have chosen you as my consort , I would have left with no other option than to sacrifice my life in the holy fire, if you don't come .
I'm also sending the Brahmin Sunand who worships Maa Girija and he is a confidante of Pitashree, too, you can trust him as well!!!!
Rukmini's family is incomplete without her brothers,trust me they aren't so rude as you may think!!!
In the lotus feet of yours,
Rukmini "
Rukmini took a deep breath as she completed her letter, she fervently prayed for the well-being of her family, her land and Sunand brahmin, to Girija Devi as she rolled down the scroll and gave it to Shreetama, her childhood friend
,who gleefully took it and assurred Shree that she'd hand over the scroll to her father and make sure that he would reach Dwarka, even if she had to face death, Shreetama hugged her, patting her back and left from her chamber. As Shreetama made her way towards the exit, Rukmini kept staring at her silhouette till it faded away from her sight .....and sincerely hoped that Sunand would return to Vidarbha all well with a positive reply ..............
