The Burning Rose  by Bree_Cloudburst

A MAHABHARATA RETELLING ~~~ All the other flowers in the garden were brought up to envy the rose. Maybe shun it even. And admire it, too. Unusual ways. Too-red petals, too-sharp thorns, too-sweet fragrance. If only each flower did not have a mind of its own. If only stories were truly what one hand wrote them to be. If only the blood on every thorn was the fault of the rose and not that of the hunter. ~~~ Her breathing had suddenly halted as her eyes had accidentally landed on a piece of paper carelessly tucked under the lampholder on the bedside table. It looked like the work of a royal servant who had accidentally come across it while cleaning the room and then picked it up and tucked it away. She had carefully sat up and reached for it. The hot metal of the lampholder - like the one she had seen Draupadi seamlessly remove from a counter - had almost seared her palm, as she had hurriedly but carefully pushed it aside and retrieved the folded piece of what seemed like pearlescent paper. Touching it had felt like a grave invasion of privacy, but the curiosity that had suddenly roared and raced within her like a great river breaking free off a cliff. She had hurriedly unfolded the paper and had been greeted by a not-so-perfect handwriting and a volley of letters. It was a letter. A letter that looked like someone had ripped their heart out and presented it to someone on a piece of pearlescent paper. ~~~ WARNINGS: Scenes of intimacy and violence, possible hints of self-harm or similar intentions

Suthanu, the cherished and only daughter of the Pandavas, is a living testament to a lineage steeped in honor, duty and sacrifice. Born from the union of Samrat Yudhishthira, the embodiment of dharma, and Samragini Draupadi, whose fire reshaped dharma come into light, Suthanu grows within the towering walls of Indraprastha.

The warmth of love and laughter is swept into a chasm of emptiness, leaving her to confront the void left by tragedy. How does one endure when the very essence of one's world collapses?

It is then that a young prince enters her world, drawn to her by an invisible thread of fate. Yet, as his path crosses hers, he carries his own secrets and struggles, bound to a destiny as uncertain and perilous as hers. Will he be her sanctuary or her undoing? Can their intertwined fates overcome the storm gathering over their world, or will they be consumed by the shadowed forces plotting in the unseen depths? In a realm where dharma clashes with desire and the forces of evil rise, what truths will emerge from the darkness? And what future lies hidden beneath fate's unrelenting veil?
