"Don't be hassled Dvijesh. Everything will be alright. We will talk to raj purohit (referred to as the royal priest of the whole generation of the royal family) about it."says Aeindri (the one who has powers of Lord Indra).
"It does not matter whether rishivar's death is a bad omen for us or not. It is his death I am sad of Aeindri."
Aeindri, who was the Dvijesh's wife was now bearing their child in her womb.
Rubbing the burn marks on her skin, "Well I do not think that it is something to be dejected and regretful about, Dvijesh. Death is something that is inevitable......"
"No. Not in the case of rishivar. He must have percieved that he would die if he would read it twice. Why would he do such a thing? He could have just instead given me the scroll to read Aeindri."
"Somethings always remain a mystery. Now come. We must leave. It is time for rishivar's samadhi (burial)." Aeindri says seeing the flag being hoisted by raj purohit Brihad out of the window of their chamber.
------------------
"MAY YOU REST IN PEACE, GREAT SAGE. PRESENTING OURSELVES HERE, IN YOUR SAMADHI, WE CREATE A SENSE OF PRIDE WITHIN US AND OUR SUCCESSORS. WE ARE HONOURED SAGE ANGIRAS THAT WE HAVE LIVED IN THE TIME OF YOURS. WE PRAY TO GOD THAT YOU ARE REBORN IN THE TIME OF OUR SUCCESSORS AND BLESS THEM WITH YOUR DIVINE POWERS. REST IN PEACE GREAT SAGE. WE PRAY FOR YOU."
"I now call upon his majesty to light the funeral pyre of the great sage Angiras." Sage Brihad announces after giving his eulogy speech.
--------------------
"Guruvar(teacher or raj purohit), to what do we owe such a gloomy day? The passing away of rishi Angiras seems as if a part of life from me has been sucked off. Why do I feel so lonely?"
"Dvijesh Chandravir! Might I remind you of your duties? As Sage Angiras had said during his last breathes, do not fret on what is happened. Focus on the future. Suryaketu 's future."
"I shall do as you say but I don't know. Something does not seem right."
------------------
"Very soon my dear son you shall come to this world with a burning fire in your heart to avenge my disgrace. Be my solace and close your eyes now for you shall open them very soon. Forever."
Closing her eyes, Aeindri remembers the most disgraceful day of her life. Her near death. Her burns.
