...The Rakhshasas called for a Mutiny! They turned themselves on against their creators."
-"That's pretty inquisitive. It raises curiosity too!"
Maharshi Valmiki sat straight now. With inquisitive eyes, he asked –"But why did they declare war against the Titans, Maharshi Markendeya? The narration so far clearly suggests that due to some causes, The Gods favored the Rakhshasas from the very beginning; then why the Rakhshasas turned their backs on their creators. However, another point, what made the Titans rush in their schedule? Why they became such impatience?"
-"Perhaps they had a fear deep inside somewhere that the 'Asurs' will be invading their new home. The first thing an army looks for – soldiers. Their limited population perhaps was the main barrier to raise a strong Armed Force. There are more reasons-"
-"Maharshi Markendeya, you are talking about an Army of Titans then! Maharshi, I don't know exactly how many years it takes to develop an under-developed species into a developed one; I take it from your narration that it takes a huge, lot of time. But, the Titans could have upraised their population by this span, why they weren't eager to do so?"
-"Aah! So is this the question is? The main reason behind that was – limitation of resources on the planet they are residing. This is what made their population stay confined within a definite number due to the shortage of raw materials and lack of adequate resources. This is why they couldn't build a larger army of the Titans."
-"In their new home, that means the same planet where they landed for the first time after their endless roaming into cosmos, right Maharshi?"
-"That planet is known as 'Varavati'. Yes, you are right, Maharshi Valmiki."
-"Then the next question is. In that case, why the Titans didn't make Earth as their 'home', instead of 'Varavati' out there?"
-"Pardon me, but I will not answer that question. It will be a lie if I say 'I don't know'; I just won't answer this question."
-"I am sorry Maharshi Markendeya; however, you were talking about the causes that made the Rakhshasas hot favorite to the Gods..."
-"When you sit tight to write down a lot of your compositions all at a time, do you stress on each of them equally or do you put your stress over the best of them to accomplish first?"
-"Of course the b- I can read the meaning of your question, Maharshi. Another thing, the Rakhshasas made revolt against their creator – did they cross over the Titans in technology, science, and in every field of advancements?"
-"I won't make any direct comments in this regard; I am bound to my duties. Just tell me one thing, Maharshi Valmiki. Many arrogant, repugnant sons in this World oppose their fathers in a harsh manner. But, in practicality, do they really get past over the experience of these unfortunate fathers to prove them wrong entirely? Moreover, however disobedient their son could be, could any father put an end to him all by his own hands or the hands they command unless they are pushed down to a maximum extent to do so? Food to thoughts, Maharshi!!" -
"You are concealing something that I shouldn't know; this is exactly why you are talking in riddles. Isn't it, Maharshi?"
In response, Maharshi Markendeya shrugged his shoulders; then he had a sip of water and started narrating again-
-"Okay. Let's get back mainstream again. Among the four test species, finally, the modulated and evolved Rakhshasas turned out to be the best to top the list. They were the superior most species who were in the pinnacle of their own civilization. The Gandharbas appeared next in the list, though they were inferior to their predecessors, forming the rural-based development with a comparatively backward living standard. Though they were much advanced in their social structure. The Gods had their eyes and observation on this species too.
The Rakhshasas had an inborn deformation in their character – the aggression. In the first place, the Gods overlooked it; but if for once they had a sneak peek into it, they could have realized the future and they could restrain themselves off in further tests. However, in the first place when the Rakhshasa civilization was young, they used to abide by the laws and orders as specified by the Gods; but later on, they disobeyed every single line drawn by the Gods. Driven by the natural aggression, first, they occupied this entire Globe; the next step was Mars. Yes, Mars had a promising and prosperous life back then. The Gods were dethroned and displaced again in this part of the solar system. It is a misfortune of the Titans that the nightmare of losing 'Tripura' emperor still chases them here, in this part of the cosmos. Just think about their mental state for once! They had an old wound of losing their own motherland; now more salt is added to the wound – they are lost to the creatures that were created and guided by them! They had their hold on 'Alka' yet; some of the Gods stayed back there for holding the line firm, others shifted behind the security zone of 'Varavati'. They were waiting for their only turn. Shortly after their defeat to the Rakhshasas, they were on for a secret mission to develop the Gandharbas behind the back of the Rakhshasas; although they knew that this is not an easy task to do.
