With a big apology for being late ... With great regret that I can't read the discussion at all ...
With great gratitude for your novel.
Your story is extraordinarily fascinating, colorful and voluminous. This is the real colors, smells and the taste. But even more amazing reality and psychological correctness of the characters.One special scene for me is the confrontation between Heera and Mahendra and the accusations. The behavior of Heera, as an experienced adult, as a diplomat and, at the end, faltered like the enamored 16-year-old girl. Your characters are real and alive, not cardboard supermen.
As for Shahzadeh. For me, this character is much worse than Khalil. Having given Khalil a "carte blanche" on farman and Heera, he perfectly understands that her life and death will be as terrible as her sister'. He has no royal honor and no human decency.
I understand that you already talked about.
