"Heavy is the head that wears the crown" Ephemera: Nothing is permanent, flowers that bloomed will die in a matter of weeks, before the trees leaf out and shade them. Everything is passing and precious. No empire lasts forever, no dynasty continues unbroken. All that matters is whether we did what we could with the life that was given to us. Yudhishthira. Bheem. Arjun. Nakul. Sahadev. The five famous sons of pandu. An abandoned brother. An unprecedented sister. Traitors. A burning palace. Poison. Humiliation. Misconceptions. Betrayals. What if you had to pick between your siblings who would follow you to death or the love of your life? Who would you pick? Dhriti, the daughter of death. Draupadi, the daughter of fire. The dying embers of a fading fire. Fire and ash never mix, do they? But maybe, just maybe, they can change something and save the five brothers. Or will they scorch anything they touch? "I was ready to die for you, but never realized that it was you who will kill me." A traitor only becomes one if their plot is discovered. The imposition of guilt means nothing to those who feign loyalty. Then, with their own hand writing history, such traitors may wear the clothes of patriots. ~~~~ Join this beautiful journey of finding trust again, of reaching depths unknown, unrevealed truths being revealed, injustice at its perk, love turns to betrayal- an impact that ripples through time . For eternity is ephemeral at best. ~~~~~~ Cover by @Nightfall_21

KRISHNASAHODARI The heart of Krishna. The wife of Dharma. They say Krishna loved the world. But before Dwarka, before wars, before destiny carved divinity into his name... He loved *her* first. His twin. His womb-sharer. His Hriday. Princess Ksheera. Moon-pale where Krishna was dark as monsoon clouds. Soft laughter wrapped around terrifying strength. A girl who could feed wounded tigers with her bare hands, dance through palace halls with flowers in her hair, and still cradle Krishna's head in her lap when the weight of godhood became too heavy for his human heart. Dwarka worshipped Krishna. But Dwarka loved Ksheera. And perhaps that is why fate became jealous. Because far away in Hastinapur lived a man who belonged more to duty than himself. Yudhishthira. Dharmaraj. The righteous prince. The future king. The man everyone leaned upon while no one noticed he was collapsing silently beneath expectations. A prince so devoted to Dharma that he feared his own anger, his own desires, even his own loneliness. Then Ksheera walks into his life carrying sunlight in her smile and questions in her eyes. And suddenly Dharma itself begins trembling. Because she does not fear him. She laughs at his silences. Challenges his definition of righteousness. Steals food from his plate. Calls him *Sthir* with such softness that the mighty Dharmaraj forgets how to breathe. For the first time in his life, someone sees not the king. Not the crown. Not the burden. Just the man. And Yudhishthira falls first. Falls harder. Falls so deeply that even fire cannot burn it away. But this is Mahabharata. Love here is never simple. A marriage born in haste. A palace built to become a funeral pyre. A kingdom hungry for blood. A prince carrying the weight of Dharma. And a woman who chooses to stand beside him through exile, grief, war, and destiny itself. This is the story of the woman who made the calmest man in Aryavart blush like a boy.

MAHABHARAT--- Though the fighting between the Pandavs and Kauravs remain at the heart of it, the epic revolves around the conflict of Dharma. In this work of fiction I present to you the human emotions, conversation, thoughts of everyone as they meet again, but this time there is no land or kingdom for dispute. What will converse after the 95th parva in Mahabharat, where the only Unfallen character enters the Swarg? When destination is reached, does the soul still have a destiny? Thus, embark on a journey of reunions, revelations and notion of a bitter sweet ache of the aftermath.

She spent her life fighting monsters no one else dared to see. When the world failed, Vedha built her own system-an underground network that hunted those who thrived on suffering. She predicted betrayal. She accepted the cost. And still-she died saving others. But death was not the end. Reborn in the age of the Mahabharata, she enters a world ruled not by logic-but by dharma. A world where men like Yudhishthira cannot escape righteousness... And beings like Krishna already know how it ends. War is inevitable. Choices are irreversible. Knowledge is not power-it is a burden .If you already know the ending... WOULD YOU STILL TRY TO change it? #1 Mahabharata #3 Mahabharata #5 Mahabharata #1 Yudhistira #1 parashurama #2 Arjuna

Featured - @AmbassadorsIN "No winter lasts forever, no spring skips its turn." Suthanu has always known who she is - the cherished only daughter of Yudhishthira, the embodiment of dharma, and Draupadi, whose fire reshaped an age. Growing up within the golden walls of Indraprastha, she is her family's joy, her people's light, and the living promise of everything the Pandavas fought to build. Then the Dice Game happens. And in a single, catastrophic throw, everything is gone. With her family shattered and Indraprastha lost, Suthanu refuses to let her parent's legacy crumble into dust. She will fight to protect what remains of her family and find a way to reclaim what was stolen - even if the path forward cuts straight through her grief. What she doesn't plan for is Bhanu. Son of Krishna, equal parts charming and guarded, he enters her fractured world carrying a quiet determination she wasn't expecting and a fate that seems impossibly tangled with hers. He could be her greatest ally - or the one complication dharma simply cannot afford. Because in a world where ancient evil stirs in the shadows and dharma is already asking everything of her, falling for the son of Krishna might be the one battle Suthanu isn't equipped to win. Can the daughter of the Pandavas restore a broken legacy - and is she willing to risk her heart to do it? A Mahabharata-inspired mythology retelling with royal romance, shattered kingdoms, and the eternal pull between duty and desire. © 2024 Akshayaa Mahesh

Disclaimer : This story is a complete work of fiction and this in no way intends to hurt anyone's religious beliefs. I will try my best to justify the story. Time travelling is something which is a matter of discussion everywhere. Some say it's possible, some say it's not. But you know what, when god conspires to do something and to teach us something, he can go to any lengths for that. And when he wants to teach the purity of love, the essence of togetherness and the real meaning of soulmates, he will do that even at the time of war. Love is associated with pain, pleasure, seperation, then coming back together, fighting our demons together and what not. What happens when the definition of love is completely changed, when lover conquers all Time Demons Separation Sorrow Humiliation and every other pain you can count in this world. Let's embark on this journey of redefinition of lover where it's a union of souls and not body. Plagiarism is not appreciated. Strict action will be taken for the same.
