The tinkling sound of a fallen cup is all what can be heard in the courtroom at present.
"No.....It can't be. It can't be!" Asrasya stands and pushes his throne ahead.
"Your majesty....." the messenger tries to speak.
"Quiet! Be quiet! You shall be rewarded..."
"....by death." And all off a sudden the messenger is erupted into flames. Only his ashes and jewellery is left of him.
Ameya closes her eyes and prays in her mind. When will swami (my husband) learn the path of dharma. I envy Aeindri. But of course I can never be her.
"Now what, bhajshresht?" Pitamabra asks.
"War." Comes the answer.

"Your honour, Devi (women are refered as in respect) Anasuya( the one who is free from jealousy and envy) has sent you a letter." A messenger says.
"Read it out aloud."
"But......she told....."
"Do I fear her? And that to a woman? Speak fast!"
The messenger fumbles with the scroll and reads out,
ASRASYA, (Asrasya fumes with anger when she addresses him by his name and the soldier is a bit tensed now. How can a wife address her husband by his name? Of course only if it was Anasuya.)
I HEARD THAT YOU TRIED TO DISGRACE THE CHANDRAVIRS BY HEXING THE LOTUS VESSEL WITH YOUR MAGIC AND BURNING BUDDHANA, OH SORRY MY LORD, I MEANT AEINDRI. HA! I KNEW IT. YOU COULDN'T DESTROY HER. I HAD TOLD YOU LONG BACK ASRASYA, DON'T MESS WITH THE CHANDRAVIRS ESPECIALLY WITH AEINDRI AND SHIVAPRIYA. THEY BOTH ARE ARDENT DEVOTEES OF MAHADEV. AND MAHADEV AS YOU KNOW IS GREATEST OF THE GREAT GODS TO WHOM NONE WILL STAND AGAINST. AND NOW HE IS WITH THE CHANDRAVIRS. YOU MIGHT BE THE WARRIOR OF AGNI, BUT NOW MAHADEV 'S BOON GIVEN TO AEINDRI NOT ONLY PROTECTS THEM BUT ALSO GIVES THEM STRENGTH IMPOSSIBLE FOR YOU TO DEFEAT. I HAVE GIVEN YOU ENOUGH REASONS TO BRING YOU BACK TO THE PATH OF DHARMA, AS IT WAS MINE TO WARN YOU. BACK OFF!
ANASUYA
Your majesty." The messenger bows and leaves.
Pitamabra interrupts Asrasya 's thoughts, "Your majesty...."
"Give orders to find her whereabouts. Kidnap Arya (lioness) and kill her! Let her come to know what happens when you mess with me. I need her daughter killed!"
