"Arrest the messenger!"
"Don't spare him."
"How dare he bring such disgrace?"
"Hang him to death."
"This is war, O king!"
"A message from the divine Shiva!"
"Kill him, and say war!"
"Be patient, my children." Brihad tries establishing peace over the people, the angered audience who witnessed a horrifying incident.
"We want war!"
"This is unfair."
"My dear citizens! Please calm down. We can't harm a messenger. It is a dharma which we shall follow. Please calm down." Dvijesh pleads to deaf ears and red eyes.
"Burn the messenger."
"Shiva says so, wage war!"
Suddenly Aeindri's hand shoots up in the air. Silence now prevails. She walks forward and speaks.
"I am really happy, to see you all with this burning fire."
Dvijesh and Brihad are stunned. Why is she provoking them?
"Let this fire burn for many years till his end. Let it, but do be patient with it now. The right time will come." She pauses.
"Free the messenger. Assembly dismissed." She continues.
And with this she leaves the court.
