Rambunctious, Courageous, Defiant―Upendra is anything but what society expects from members of his lowly caste. He aspires to become a warrior, much to the displeasure of his parents, whose families have worked in slaughterhouses since immemorial times and fear that their child's attempt at perturbing the social order will cause their ruin.

                                    ⚔️

With the disintegration of the erstwhile formidable Mughal Empire and the emergence of numerous tiny kingdoms constantly at war with each other, vagrancy and banditry are the new Laws of the Land. The Devaraja finds himself amongst arrogant, esurient, and hedonistic Kshatriyas and wonders whether birth alone determines someone's worth.

                                    ⚔️

An unprecedented turn of events thrust the young Upendra into the volatile Indian political landscape. Will he unite the fragmented polities under one banner? Or will his archenemies, unwilling to serve a Chandala and wanting to seize the Lotus Throne for themselves, successfully conspire to bring him down?All Rights Reserved
