<font face="Georgia, Times New Roman, Times, serif" size="2">This line stayed with me for so long... you've portrayed it so beautifully... Heera is so enthralling, that it even forces someone as toughened and impenetrable as Akbar to shed his armour - the fact that she doesn't ask for said protection, only draws one more towards her.</font>
<font face="Georgia, Times New Roman, Times, serif" size="2">As a lady alone in this world, facing a life-death scenario, protecting so many, enduring a disability and yet managing to carry on with her head held high and kindness in her lips, masking her tears from her people as she does so - she is a role model for her people! Like he is for his people.</font>
<font face="Georgia, Times New Roman, Times, serif" size="2">She has been taught to be strong, so she is! She is duty-bound to be strong, so she is. After all, she is a survivor... Having said that, she is vulnerable too! A young lady whose dreams have been shattered overnight. And that vulnerability is something she doesn't show ... not to anyone other than nature and jiji's soul!</font>
<font face="Georgia, Times New Roman, Times, serif" size="2">This 'earthy' feature of hers (neither arrogant, nor a weakling) is what would allure someone like Akbar to want to protect her... like how he is so protective of all rare breeds.. be it, his horses... or his loyal friends...</font>
<font face="Georgia, Times New Roman, Times, serif" size="2">He has/will recognise the rarity that Heera is... and will be a protector of the flame of her spirit, ensuring it continues to survive!</font>
