! POTENTIALLY SLOW UPDATES ! . . We all know the story. Lord Ramachandra returned with Sitadevi from Mithila, along with his brothers and their wives. Shortly after, Maharaja Dasharatha resolved to coronate Sri Rama and take Vanaprastha himself. However, things didn't go exactly as planned. A Week To Coronation focuses keenly on the seven days before Lord Ramachandra's departure for the forest, as the title suggests. A storyline inspired by the original, yet containing its own unique additions and styles. DISCLAIMER- I classify this as neither a fanfiction nor a plain retelling. Consider it a mix of both. Allergic readers are advised to stay clear. Happy Reading :)

No, this is not about Sita and the magical deer. Disclaimer: This story is purely fanfiction and written solely for the purpose of entertainment. I do not intend to hurt anyone's feelings. The characters and setting are not owned by me. Alrighty, So for background information, the story takes place after the princes and princesses return from Mithila. Of course, they all are married now. And then comes the fictitious part. Indrajeet attacks Ayodhya, aided by the army from Lanka. The reason for this shall be later revealed in the story. And during the course of the battle, something happens that closely resembles a remake of the Shakti episode. Happy Reading! :)

Hidden behind those red blindfolds, were curious eyes that once saw the world, soaked it's hue and carried dreams like every other girl. Gandhari, mother of 101 kids, sister of Shakuni but most importantly, she was yet another bird shackled by rules. We read about people who break rules and come out of their condition but this story is about a person who learns to accept her fate as she moves ahead in her journey of life, sometimes molding herself whilst other times finding leeway. •❅─────✧❅✦❅✧─────❅• "Gandhari, you have changed." My brother said in a heavy tone, his eyes carrying an unknown guilt. "Maybe because now I have been trained for every action I take." I mumbled out the truth. •❅─────✧❅✦❅✧─────❅• This book is fiction not everything is according to Mahabharata, please refrain from pointing that events are not matching. Only the characters are taken from the epic, this book can be read even without much information regarding Mahabharata. This work is an original work. Please refrain from using this somewhere else.
