This tale is from ancient times, a time after the end of the era of Ram and before the arrival of Krishna. It was the age between the end of Treta Yuga and beginning of Dwapar Yuga.
In human years it was a giant transition period and was full of chaos. As celestial beings restricted meddling with humankind, both Daitya's and Devata's sustained heavy losses in these years of wars in their attempts to control the ways of the children of Manu.
Treta Yuga had shown to all other beings what destructive capabilities the human kind posses and sooner or later they will overpower other races who don't realize the winds of change.
Now, an amalgam of these fears and expectations from the humankind brought about a period of change in human history that ultimately lead Humans into Dwapar Yuga with such destructive capabilities and divine boons that gave a path to the most destructive and bloody battles in the history of mankind.
This is the tale of that period which gave Humans these powers.

Destiny or Accident?
Advika, 25, recently retired from her perilous career as a spy for the Indian government. She's faced trauma that most couldn't bear in a lifetime. Now, all she craves is the one thing her life lacked-normalcy. A quiet, boring life free from the shadows of her past. But she'd never admit it, even to herself. To desire simplicity feels like weakness. Yet, deep down, that's all she wants-something real, something safe. Karna, born a suta but kshatriya by heart, is a man who defied everything society forced upon him. Humiliated, cursed, and denied his rightful place, all he ever longed for was to learn weaponry-archery, his true calling. Though denied by every royal and guru, he carved his own path, mastering the art despite them all. Now, he seeks the respect and glory he's been denied, determined to claim his place in Hastinapur, the very kingdom that rejected him. He's no longer just a man-he's an enigma, a force of sheer will. But what happens when Karna, through mysterious forces, arrives in Advika's house? In a clash of instinct and fear, she attacks first, questions later. Their worlds, separated by centuries and desires, suddenly collide. One seeking peace, the other seeking glory. Both wanting the impossible. Advika wanted a simple life after the storms of her past. But maybe it was too much to ask. Karna wanted respect and honor in the land that spurned him. But maybe that, too, was too much to ask. Though their lives are worlds apart, something powerful connects them, pulling them into a moment neither can explain. Two souls, bound by destiny, stand before each other in an era foreign to them both. And as they each seek what they desire most, one truth becomes clear-when the universe conspires to grant your deepest wishes, there's always a price. The question is: at what cost?
HARIHARESHWARI 18 : धर्मज्योति
Shri Krishna, to save his citizens, establishes the magnificent city of Dwarka. Yet, even as he leads them to safety, the seeds of Adharma are sown. The Yadavas reel from the audacious theft of the Syamantak Mani, and the subsequent false accusations against the Lord himself. Dharma itself is thrown in disarray. The marriage of Draupadi to five Pandavas, while intended to uphold righteousness, blurs the lines of morality, leaving even the wisest sages grappling with the complexities of right and wrong. Awakened from years of oblivion, Krishneshwari too, bound by a promise from a previous life to aid Karn, is thrust into a moral quandary. How does one help someone who seems determined to make the wrong choices ? The warrior she pledged to support once is now entangled in wickedness, leaving her torn between keeping her word and the greater good. The irony, ofcourse, is not lost on anyone. Amidst this turmoil, Krishneshwari rediscovers her own love, Satyashree. The world witnesses the divine union of Krishna with Rukmini, Jambavati and Satyabhama, and celebrates the rise of Yudhishthir as the righteous king of Indraprasth.Complete
Karna & Arjun - The Union of Brothers
Mahabharat is my favorite story and I believe that every character has something unique to offer. I often see people comparing Karna and Arjun and I am myself guilty of doing that. This story is my fictionalized take on the union of two brothers. What if Karna and Arjun joined forces to fight an ultimate threat to protect the universe? Explore this possibility in 'The Union of Brothers', a fictional story about the young warriors of Dwapar yug competing in an international level tournament.

How she reached from Kaliyug to Dwapar yug and why? Many more things are running through her mind and all she got from the mortal disguise of Lord Narayan, Krishna is, "Tum etihas ka hissa nahi balki etihas rachne aayi ho. Apni vaggya ka racaita tum khud ho. " (You're not part of the history. Rather you have come to create the history. You're the writer of your own destiny.) *********** Familiar with the Mahabharat? Don't worry if you're not. I've added a short description of the original Mahabharat plot in the book for those. This story will follow the original mahabharat storyline but in a vastly different way with a lot of twists and events in my style. 😉 I'm aware Mahabharat holds religious sentiments for some and I do not INTEND to offend anyone. This is for entertainment purpose only. So don't get serious or offended please. And I apologise in advance if you feel hurt by any content of the book.Complete
