Her work takes her to the most haunted places on earth, and Qasr Al-Sahra is no exception. As she steps into the forsaken halls of the palace, she senses something far deeper than a mere haunting-a love story buried in the walls, kept alive by the spirit of Sultan Ardashir. The palace itself seems to breathe with his presence, as if holding on to a forgotten sorrow. With every dark corner she investigates and every whisper from the unseen, Miraaj feels the weight of the palace's secrets pulling her into an emotional journey she never expected.
