His Chaos : Beneath a Canopy Of Whispers

Madhuri, a child of the village yet belonging to the wild, speaks to the trees, the rivers, and to anyone who will listen-yet fate brings her to a man who will not speak at all.

He calls himself Raghav, though his name was once spoken with reverence in the halls of a kingdom now stolen from him. A prince betrayed, left for dead, and burning with the weight of vengeance. Silence is his armor, and solitude his refuge-until he collapses, wounded and fevered, at the edge of her world.

Madhuri finds him in the forest, broken and half-conscious, his past hidden behind layers of blood and grime. She should leave him there, let the jungle swallow him whole. But something in his silence calls to her, something restless, something angry, something unbearably alone.

And so, she does what she always does-she speaks. She scolds and soothes, fills the quiet with stories and questions he refuses to answer. He is an enigma, a storm held in check, but as she tends to him, she begins to wonder: has she rescued a lost man, or invited danger into her home?
