It all started when they humiliated the one sired by Fire itself. When one is blinded by an insane lust of an infernal nature, particularly one pertaining to power, all his merits stand nullified, and emasculated in such vicious intoxication. This the story of one such intoxication, and the cumulative of consequences, and causes that led to such a carnage which stood to define mankind and its nature through generations.

***

The Mahabharata is one of the two chiefest epics in Indian Mythology. With its assimilation of a variety of storylines resulting in one common consequence, which is the battle of Kurukshetra, it mainly derives the chief cause of its consequence from the vicious rivalry between the Kuru cousins, The Pandavas, and The Kauravas.  This story begins after the eldest Pandava, Yudhishthir, who had been given a piece of land, that was supposedly pestilent, gains his suzerainty over the Land of Bharata (thence also called, Aryavarta), owing to the combined labour, and perseverance of the Pandavas, and their common wife, Draupadi. Their eldest cousin, Duryodhan, infuriated by their prosperity, causes himself to be put in a state of humiliation at Yudhishthir's coronation. Angered further, he vows revenge, by humiliation in an equal measure. As events unfold, towards their ultimate fate, this story revolves around the backdrop of the relationship between the eldest Kaurava, and his wife Bhanumati, who remains a sufferer and spectator, despite being faultless.

Destiny or Accident? by Shivi_Kohli
108 parts Ongoing Mature
Advika, 25, recently retired from her perilous career as a spy for the Indian government. She's faced trauma that most couldn't bear in a lifetime. Now, all she craves is the one thing her life lacked-normalcy. A quiet, boring life free from the shadows of her past. But she'd never admit it, even to herself. To desire simplicity feels like weakness. Yet, deep down, that's all she wants-something real, something safe. Karna, born a suta but kshatriya by heart, is a man who defied everything society forced upon him. Humiliated, cursed, and denied his rightful place, all he ever longed for was to learn weaponry-archery, his true calling. Though denied by every royal and guru, he carved his own path, mastering the art despite them all. Now, he seeks the respect and glory he's been denied, determined to claim his place in Hastinapur, the very kingdom that rejected him. He's no longer just a man-he's an enigma, a force of sheer will. But what happens when Karna, through mysterious forces, arrives in Advika's house? In a clash of instinct and fear, she attacks first, questions later. Their worlds, separated by centuries and desires, suddenly collide. One seeking peace, the other seeking glory. Both wanting the impossible. Advika wanted a simple life after the storms of her past. But maybe it was too much to ask. Karna wanted respect and honor in the land that spurned him. But maybe that, too, was too much to ask. Though their lives are worlds apart, something powerful connects them, pulling them into a moment neither can explain. Two souls, bound by destiny, stand before each other in an era foreign to them both. And as they each seek what they desire most, one truth becomes clear-when the universe conspires to grant your deepest wishes, there's always a price. The question is: at what cost?

Cover credit-stxrrynxghts_ The great war had ravaged everything in its wake. Children had lost their parents, wives had lost their husbands, and mothers had lost their sons. Among them was the Princess of Dwarka herself, a mother whose heart had been torn apart. The child she had cradled in her arms, the son she had raised on her own-gone, never to return. Forever lost to the horrors of war. But could she, a woman of such strength, afford to wallow in grief? No, she could not. For beyond her sorrow, there was a greater responsibility. She had a grandson to guide, the future heir to the mighty Kuruvansha. The legacy of her family, of Dwarka, depended on her. She was a force to be reckoned with, the pride of Dwarka, the jewel of the Vrishnis-Yadavakumari Subhadra. From the days of her childhood, she had been shielded by her brothers, innocent and unaware of the world's cruelty. But life had transformed her into the formidable Rajmata of Aryavarta. The woman who stood tall, even when fate cruelly shattered her world, taking away her son, her Dwarka, her family. Yet, despite all the pain, no force could steal her strength. When hope had almost been lost, she rose-unyielding. She was a daughter, so nurturing. A sister, playful and mischievous. A princess, carefree and full of joy. A wife, gentle and loving. A mother, strong and responsible. And finally, a Rajmata, indomitable and fierce. No matter how cruel the game of destiny, she would never bend.
