'They complimented each other the way the lightning and its flash do.'
Yudhisthira had just returned to royalty after some time in the forests, where he, his brothers and their mother were all hiding from their own relatives,a sad state of affairs. This had created a void in Yudhisthira, one healed by the fire born Princess of Panchala.
Draupadi had never thought she would be the wife of the five Pandavas, despite feeling a common thread of ancient story between them and her. Despite having heard a lot about Yudhisthira, she had not completely understood the goodness embedded in him till after their marriage.
Married due to the eternity of love and truth that exists between them, Yudhisthira and Draupadi learn each other through conversations and actions. Yudhisthira discovers the complementarity the daughter of Drupada had with him, and Draupadi discovered the beacon of truth that she believed in with him. Their bond had been forming much before the Svayamvara of Draupadi, where her hand was won, and she subsequently became the common wife of the five brothers. Kalyaani and Ajatashatru work together, first at Hastinapura, then at Indraprastha, as Sachi and Indra did, ruling with love and dedication, through ups and downs.
This book is their story from right before marriage, and how they wade through the political and personal bombs that kept getting dropped in their joint life, their love a stronghold that gave them the ability to deal with everything thrown their way.
