Things I wanted to include in my comment last night but got too busy celebrating! Woopsie. ;) *munching on one of those chocolates Linnie left for us*


Contrary to the show, where Arnav expected Khushi to agree to the marriage and stick to his decision with just the love she had for her family and her sister and the sense of protection she had for them as the bait, Lord Arnav has gone one step further and made sacred rituals bind her to him. It is a complete cage, with no way out. There is no way either of them can call this forced marriage a lie.



"Tch-tch," the hermit stood apart and watched them. "Fire and Ice," he mumbled to himself, "Will the Fire melt the Ice or the Ice douse the Fire?"

The Hermit succinctly puts into words the uncertain course of their future. Will the Lord's temperament, his mistrust, his hatred melt Khushi's core, that consists of implicit faith, love and happiness for others? Or will Khushi's qualities cool the fire that pains Arnav, calm his bruised self and douse his anger? I hope and pray that Fire bows to ice.



"Against your will it will seem now, but Time will tell you otherwise."

This reminds me of Shashi Gupta's words to Khushi in the first chapter:
" "Accidents happen not because we intend to them," he said, gazing at her, "But because they are meant to serve a purpose."
"But how can this," she waved her hand at Payal's ankle, "be meant for a purpose?"
Her father stood up as he said, "Only time will show." "
Incidents that happen against our will, that hurt us, mentally or physically, they all happen for a cause, for a reason and they have their consequences, that only Time can reveal.



They found themselves staring at each other through the thin white veil for a moment.

And then, in a swift move, he brought it behind her and draped it over her head, leaving her face exposed to him, "See that it stays there...virgin."


First of all, Arnav's words - Ouch. That hurt. He actually questions her purity, based on what? The ending of a letter. Dear Goddess Mother, your ways are indeed mysterious.
Arnav's action of putting the veil on, is an act that speaks a lot. For one, it is in direct contradiction to his words. The veil is a mark of purity, of chastity.
Also, since it is an action that is to be performed by the Bride's Father, it is symbolical of the fact that by putting the veil on her head, he unconsciously assures of her of protection, of love and of security. A Father is our friend, our protector, our confidante, out support, our shield. Arnav stood in place of her Father, and in turn, of all those things that represent a Father. Only time will tell if he fulfills what seems to be a Divine Choice.

She breathed in, pressing her veiled head to the trunk and glared up at him, "Your kiss is cursed!" She was so desperate that tears began to sting in her eyes as she continued angrily, "The woman who is kissed by you shall never know love!!"

Ah, Khushi's anguish speaks. All I can say for what happens after this is -
Thank goodness there were no cell phones in those days. 😆
But, seriously, that kiss... It was great, and horrifying. Poor Khushi, to be scalded and weakened by her wedding kiss! But oh, Arnav does care for her, however detached he may try to be, however much hatred glints in his eyes - he does care for her.

But then, it is sort of confusing. Arnav's kiss pains her, but the moment he reels his hunger/desire in, he is able to revive her. Of course, it is the curse which heats him. But it seems that when he sees Khushi in distress, he is able to apply himself in the right way, push the effect of the curse away. Is this related to the cure. Maybe the urge that his hunger produces would be overcome if his loved one, a pure being is hurt by him - he would be able to break the bind of the curse for her?

Khushi, you are not mistaken, sweetheart. He does love you, deep down, truly. It's just that there are more pressing matters at hand. Such as his brother-in-law apparently professing to a secret affair with you and a sister who is oblivious to all that is completely wrong.


The locks fell at the same time! Which means the sisters and brothers completed their marriages together! Oh, goody! :)


Ah, well, wedded, they are and wedded they will remain. And may their wedded life be as awesome as their life before it (awesome to read, I mean.)
*sigh* I'm beginning to think I might actually be a tad bit touched.

Oh, btw, the chapter made me make this edit:






Love,

Lady Em

Dearest Lin.. i loved this chapter for everything it had.. have told you this a million times n will still tell you a million times..

YOU ARE A GENIUS !!👏👏👏

somehow i looked at this chapter in a different way😳.. strange way of looking at things but i can't help it *shrugs*..human mind is a complex thing..n don't even ask about mine,as its more twisted than any other..😳😳😳😳

the way you described this chapter was breath taking.. it all seemed so real.. i felt i stood right there watching over arhasia as the ''third perspective''.. the wind did feel colder n aggressive.. the night a little darker.. the forest silent like never before..the two hearts that were in pain.. their bleeding love.. n the Temple !!

yes..the Temple... the mysterious Temple..

10 years ago...

this ''abandoned'' temple came to life coz Arhasia was hit by an evil, potent enough to wake the Divine Forces that ruled it.. we saw the Goddess Mother of the temple.. i always considered her to be the Lady in the Hood (LH as souly n i have come to call her).. since then she has not rested.. coz perhaps the injustice done that night to many innocent lives.. made her spread her blessings to those who were left alone..
perhaps, that Temple n its Divinity was followed by some one else too.. may be it held n who knows, but still may have some prayers bound to the ''wish tree''..the tree of life. may be a desperate heart that fateful night called upon the Divinity to help n protect... .n she took the two orphans..arnav n khushi under her wings..n since then she has never rested n patiently watched over them n waited for the right time,for the right events to bring justice(wont go in details of it right now)..meanwhile all this time protecting them.. she became their guardian.. their Mother.. n the bells in temple kept ringing..

10 years later..

their destiny thats been bound by her.. makes them cross paths.. therefore, years later they enter the same temple,togather.. the wind blows n her white scarf finds its way to lord arnav... pointing him of what is really his.. he feels the serenity associated with it but fails to notice the message.. she finds it n runs away without realizing who had it.. after all its not time yet.. but LH's children have come togather for Her blessings in her home.. n she watches silently..
both make wishes..

his;


''Your wish, Di..''

n that wish was..


"A wish I make every year, unchanging it remains: for you, a wife, my Little One, I pray to heal you and teach you to love again."

n Hers...

''I want Jiji to get a wonderful husband who will keep her and our parents happy throughout their life.''

Tonight...

they come again to the same Temple.. it had to be this place... where it all began.. to their home.. where their Mother Goddess/LH could bind them in a sacred union for life time... she even sends her ardent follower to complete the rituals.. so that no law of man or of God can ever challenge this union.

n the bells of the temple again chime after ages... the path is wrong but the destination is right.

Khushi's plight is the predominant of the two.. her grief must have no boundaries.. from a dear friend's betrayal to the man she love's cruelty... there's only injustice done to her.. her very being toyed n reduced to nothingness.. her desperation, her helplessness, her pain...just became unbearable..n she ran.. deeper into the temple.. the house of her refuge since the days,she was left alone in this world.. i loved how she stepped into the sacred fountain water.. for refuge. n how lord arnav followed her into it.. he may not be too favorite of LH but he got just as much of Her blessings as khushi did.. he followed her into her ''beliefs''.. sealed the sacred bond right under Wish Tree, which has never failed to grant what it has been asked of..n tonight another such wish is made near it.. the wish to be bound for all eternity.. loved how when he regains his senses n walks out of the water.. she follows his very steps..following into the path he showed her.. right into his world,his heart.. n the two locks fall..
the words echoing..

''And I bind it to the heart of this lock''…."Remain here, wish, until Destiny fulfills you…."

both their wishes are fulfilled.. along with the new one..
until destiny clears the fog from their hearts n mind... they are one..they were always meant to be one.

loved how on this night that same white scarf..her symbol of purity.. was taken by lordy n put back on her n cover her.. putting it on the bride by her father may be the way it goes.. but here he put it on her.. not only saying she was pure (he does believe in it somewhere deep down..he's just not letting that feeling surface n give a chance to her).. but also signed it to be her dignity's protector.. her oak tree... i also loved how the scarf touched the holy water..as if her dignity is now blessed to be safe from all evil..

for their bond there's only one thing that came to my mind...

Dear HP... though i have also been a believer of the theory you previously made on the curses.. but there's something else too thats clouding my judgement..n i want to write it down only to explore this possibility n get a clearer view of things...

the first time it occurred to me when i read...


  • his eyes fell on the footprint in the mud.
    Not the one made by the beast in him but by another of which he was familiar...
    It was not a fresh print but he was certain the print was made quite recently.

he was still standing by the lake side.. when he spotted the foot prints.. made me think what if he came to the lake for the same purpose as the Gen did...

then the last night chp.. it blew me away... n made me think a little more over lordy's curse..

so hp.. although this thought is deficient in many ways n i haven't been able to connect all dots properly.. i wanted to suggest.. what if both the beasts are Dragons??? there are various types of dragons right?? each having their own reasons to be cursed.. their own strengths n their own reign.. n powers...

you are right that the idea of thinking about a dragon does seem far fetched..but then in greek mythology you do find their own special place.. just not that but almost every culture supports such myths..

last night's kiss was too shocking for me.. when she called it ''cursed''.. she was only angry to say so.. but it actually was cursed.. have you noticed hp... how his tongue is always scorching.. it always left marks on her skin.. his hands are always hot.. n its not to normal extent coz we always find khushi ''staggered n shocked'' to find it so.. not just that his hunger is insatiable, a vague point but it still applies.. just coz he bounded on four.. doesn't mean he can be exempted from the dragon category, coz there have been dragons having two to four legs.. remember the night of dungeon?? he could bring warmth to her against her coldness.. he's been now referred to ''fire'', though it could only mean a referral to his fiery nature.. but what if?? what if the heat he emancipates actually runs in his blood.. whenever he is enraged n in pain the beast's awake..like we have been seeing at nights,post his nightmares regarding his past memories.. but he fights to control it n the only time he can't he needs to cool it off by using water to turn back into a human.. now we also know that the ''ghost-girl'' also haunts the Gen. n may be his anger too leads to same scenario, esp on the night of shashi encounter..


  • Her consciousness was stricken blind and fire erupted in her. Tears streamed down her face, not because she was angry or hurt, but because she was in pain. Excruciating pain of a kind she had never known. His cruel tongue was so hot that she was certain it had scorched her mouth.


  • Her throat was on fire and she felt her head reeling from the power on the tongue's heat. She felt the heat seep down to her insides, numbing her heart and she gasped in an attempt to retrieve her waning breath.


it was interesting to see that this very kiss not only took away khushi's strength n put her life into danger.. it also restored her back to her normal self..

though it could be indicating how this kiss could be related to some kind of sacrifice or something (still vague)..

if really khushi is the cure for the two beasts then may be the beasts are also of the same kind.. i was thinking hp..what if the author of this tale was exploring two different aspects of the same curse??

may be she is only showing the physical strength n abilities of the beast from the General's POV.. n the pain n suffering associated with it from Lordy's POV..

so that, may be some day we can see lordy fly n be as powerful as the Gen is.. n the Gen shown to go through just as much pain as lordy does,during transformations..

no matter what it is hp..but i can't help think..

that these two may be as much of the beasts as they can..but the heart is only of the ''man''... its the sole driving force for them both.. n what if the key to curse (khushi), can only unlock what lies with in these hearts.. n the real cure only lies within their hearts.. if you know what i mean..😳

btw, i liked how khushi n lordy have been referred to ''fire n ice''..😉😛..she did soothed him n his unquenchable desire.. but at what cost?? that part was super interesting!! 😊


ps; am waiting for the white scarf decoding too.. coz i don't think i got it right..


pps; souly..giving you space n respecting your silence!! so no queries from you, though i would love to hear your voice once again..😊

Lin I had tried adding this in my previous post but then the message was not posted, saying it contained irrelevant words. So I thought i would break down the word and let you know, what I wanted to say with the Marriage chapter 174 and here it goes...
👏
Super- Cali- Fragilistic- Expiali- Docious😉👏👏

I simply want to say, your work is commendable dear.
