DAASTAN- E- ISHQ: TALE OF LOVE AND WAR
We were never supposed to marry, and our marriage was wrong because of many reasons but it didn't take him a single second before he shouted in front of the whole village and said that I am his wife and marry me in front of them. And I was just standing there like a statue because what could I have done when my own family is in different country and the person whom I was getting married ran away leaving me to get killed by the goons. He saved me when no one was there for me, when everyone was against me and wanted to kill me. He stood there like a rock and become my shield and my husband. And this is where our story of endless love and fight begins. And all of this just because we are from different religion and society will never accept our marriage and love. All of this started because of that tremendously awful day when it was announced that our country is getting divided into two parts and that we have to leave our country, my home where I was born and brought up. The partition of 1947 changed my life for forever. I am Noor and this is my story of Love and War with those whom I used to thought were my loved ones.Complete

They were told by Adonai before he left the world in their hands long ago, that in a dire time like this, another council could be called in to help. After putting it to a vote, the New Order was to be assembled and their leader was none other than the wife of both Archangels Samael and Lucifer, the mother of all demons herself, Lilith. As she travels the world to gather the unique members of the Order, she speaks with witches, wolves, vampires, and more, and they quickly come to realize they've all been plagued by a common enemy; an organization known as the Holy Alliance whose goal is to cleanse the world of demonic creatures.
