The history is written by victors.in the case of the great Mahabharata, the story was written in favour of the pandavas. Boring, boring, boring... So in my version let's look at the war from duryodhan's perspective... Let's see him justify his acts *wink*

COMPLETED! PUBLISHED! Listed in the best fantasy stories in India. Listed in best romance stories in India. "What was about to happen was something I would have never imagined. I finished writing the text and held the paper up to get a better look at it. Somehow the blue ink with which I had written was purple at present. As I wondered why this happened its colour changed to red. The writing on the paper started to glow and within a matter of seconds it started to smoulder. Next it began spewing smoke and burst aflame." A young Private Investigator, Rishaan Kel has an encounter with a beautiful woman who disappears in front of his eyes. His search for her leads him into the dark and treacherous war between the Guardians and the Watchers, humans blessed with supernatural abilities to maintain balance and harmony in the world. He now has to use his deductive reasoning, on-the-fly thinking and his own newfound superpowers to protect the world from the forces of evil. (New chapters added!) (Pictures added where I found relevant ones, gifs and videos added for the poems that depict the visions that the MC gets, but I have left the poems in text along with them incase your bandwidth or data costs don't support it.)
