"Maanvizhiyaal, you are to marry the younger Parantaka himself. The great Parantaka Chakravarthy decided this just this morning," Thirumudikaari Malayaman, the father of the Princess told her. The young woman, all of seventeen years, blushed red.
She had heard of Parantaka Chola II, who hadn't? Brave, virtuous and the epitome of beauty, he was the son of Arinjaya Chozhar and his second wife, Kalyaani Devi of the Vaidumba dynasty.
*****
Maanvizihyaal had a quiet life in the hills of Thirukovilur, among the herbs and delight that her home was known for, till she gets married to the only Prince of the Chozha dynasty.
With him comes the empire, the rivals, and three stars she bore, with life showering downs, ups, and a few calm days thrown in between like a mirage.
A story of love, sacrifice, motherhood, and the Chozha Samrajyam.
