Rathantara : A Jayagatha Journey  by AnjaniManda8
8 parts Ongoing
Her hair, a cascade of raven waves, flows like the ocean's endless rhythm, each strand mirroring the ebb and flow of the sea she was born from. Her eyes, the most enchanting shade of seafoam green, hold the mystery of the deepest waters - calm yet fathomless, gentle yet fierce. When she smiles, it is as if the world itself is bathed in light, the sun rising from behind a darkened sky. Even the hardest of icebergs would melt in the warmth of her gaze. Her presence is a symphony of nature itself, a reflection of the oceans, the winds, and the skies - beautiful, powerful, and unyielding. She was Padmaja, the princess of the Trivandhya alliance, born of land and sea, the youngest of the great Trivandhya empire. She was the princess of Saurashtra, her roots deep in the soil of the sacred land, yet her heart belonged to the boundless waves. She was Mahalakshmi herself, the eternal consort of Krishna, born of the lotus and the ocean, of grace and strength. She was the one who shared his burdens, who wiped his tears and lent him a shoulder to lean on when the weight of the world became too heavy. The divine protector, the guiding hand for those who faltered, Padmaja was the mother goddess of the universe, the Sarva Swamini - the all-mother, the one who embraced all in her arms, offering love, protection, and wisdom. To the Pandavas, she was not just a figure of power but their savior, their guide, and their unwavering protector. She was the strength that bolstered their resolve and the heart that healed their wounds. She was the embodiment of compassion and power, the very force that balanced the cosmos. In her, the world found solace, in her, the divine found its purpose. She was the dawn, the moonlit night, the sun's warmth - both the protector and the protector's light. And no matter the storm, no matter the darkness that loomed, Padmaja, the princess of land and sea, would always rise - a beacon of hope, an eternal mother to all.

49 parts Complete Mature
The great war in between the two of the greatest kingdoms occurred. The Cholas and the Rajputs. She was the captive and he was the captivator. She was the princess who was committed to someone else, tied by the strong thread of marriage. She was cheated by the brother she thought of as her world and was disowned by the same husband whom she loved and trusted blindly. When the whole world went against her, only he stood by, despite not knowing who she was. ___________________________ " War destroys the landscape in which it is fought; it erodes the natural solidarity between human beings, turning people who might be friends into mortal enemies; and it robs the soldiers who fight of their capacity to speak truth to power-to resist the wars in which they give their lives. What's more, the trauma of war lingers even after the battle is over. People like you who fought this war in the name of justice robbing my brother of his life, decapitating his head from his body, trusting such a dehumanised and monstrous person, and talking to him, NEVER! You are just a violent animal who uses his sword instead of his claws to kill, if the difference is laid out. Please, just get lost from my sight, I don't even want to see your face.." She said, This was the first time she had lost her cool, and it greatly satisfied me, that even if she shouted and called me names, at least she threw out the building tension and indignation at me. I just smiled at her. ___________________________ Adiraj dev Rajput, the one addressed as the Kunwarsa. The Charakraj [THE KING OF THE SPIES] and the Vitt mantri [FINANCE MINISTER] of Jodhpur, who has hidden a lot in him. Can he get her to trust him? When he was the one who destroyed her life, can he also be the one to tape together the shattered pieces? READ SAUNDARYA ~ THE EPITOME OF SACRIFICE Follow me on instagram: watt.sorayairha
