Life in Mahavardha was good - the family was living happily ever after. Vardhan's wife was pregnant, and everyone was over the moon. But then, one day, the same ominous weather rolled in, dark clouds and strong winds, just like the day Vijayagara was divided.

Vardhan: "Hey, Arya, what's wrong? You look worried."

Arya: "This weather... it's exactly like that day, when Father divided the kingdom. I have a bad feeling."

Vardhan: "Don't worry, everything's fine. We're safe here."

[Suddenly, Vardhan hears a strange sound]

Vardhan: "Shh, do you hear that? Stay here, don't open the door, no matter what. I'll check it out."

Arya: "But..."

Vardhan: "No arguments, Arya. I'll be back. Just stay safe."

[Vardhan cautiously exits the room, leaving Arya looking worried and frightened]

...................................................................................................

Vardhan rushed to the source of the eerie sound, his heart racing with every step. As he turned a corner, he stumbled upon a horrific scene - his mother, queen, lay lifeless on the floor, her body brutally stabbed. And there, standing amidst the carnage, was Adharva, a bloodied knife still clutched in his hand. Vardhan's eyes widened in shock and horror as he took in the gruesome sight.

Vardhan attacked Adharva, fueled by rage and grief. They exchanged blows, but Adharva's knife found its mark. Vardhan stumbled back, vision blurring, as Adharva struck again. The blade plunged into Vardhan's chest, silencing him forever. He fell beside their mother, as Adharva stood triumphant, his eyes gleaming with malevolence.

Adharva, his body drenched in blood, stormed into Adhitya's room, his guards in tow. Adhitya's family slept peacefully, unaware of the horror that awaited them. Adharva's guards snuffed out the lives of Adhitya's wife and children, their tiny bodies limp and lifeless. Adharva himself wrapped his hand around Adhitya's mouth, muffling his cries as he ended his life. The same brutal fate befell Siddhant and his family - his wife Saanvi and their two children, all slaughtered without mercy.

Adharva's rampage led him to Indrajit's room, but it was empty. Unbeknownst to him, Indrajit had grown suspicious and had already left his room to investigate. Indrajit stumbled upon the lifeless bodies of Adharva's guards and his heart sank. He followed the trail of blood and carnage to the gruesome scene where his mother and Vardhan lay dead, their bodies drenched in blood. Indrajit's eyes widened in horror as he took in the sight of his elder brother, Vardhan, lying motionless beside their mother.
