Prologue

Three Great Emperors had toiled hard to build the vast and flourishing legacy of the 'Mughal Empire', keeping relative peace by unifying its Mughals and Hindus. However; by mid 1600s, cracks began to appear in its solid foundations. Insecurities crept in through the gaps, widening the gulfs between the two religions once again.

With the old Emperor becoming too feeble to take charge and his jealous successors remaining preoccupied with expansion and power, the damage was never repaired. Not surprising then that new rebellions arose every day. Violence escalated, claiming many innocent lives.

Yet; in the midst of such turmoil and peril, there bloomed a beautiful story - much like a lone flower blossoming upon the steepest edges of a cliff - a story of love, of sacrifice and honour!

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

Forced to flee from her motherland, the one home she knew... forced to leave behind her people, for whom, she was their only hope...forced to grievously abandon the last rites of her loved one while the flames on the pyre were still ablaze...the orphaned heiress of 16 overcame grief and many shortcomings, as she embarked on a long dangerous path... setting out to seek help and support, for her people and her lands...

Till a chance stay with a complete stranger would change the course of those very plans forever!

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

Being the most shrewd, determined and unforgiving of the lot meant he was formidable... a force to be reckoned with... it also meant he could have owned it all - riches, power, women and fame... but, he fancied none of it...

As a recluse with simple tastes, the rich life held no real appeal... power didn't tempt him... women didn't interest him... his passion was work and his only family were a few loyal friends... he had decided that he wanted little else in life...

Till a chance visit from a complete stranger would change that decision forever!

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

Teaser for Chapter 39

'Wh...' Heera stayed silent, trying hard not to appear surprised. But the man was making it increasingly difficult to continue doing so. How did he know so much? And WHY did he know so much about them? 'What are his intentions, Ma?'

Seeing how his victim would not give away much, despite the threats, the Rajput prince spun around to face the crowds with elan - clearly drunk in the glory of their praise and support! 'In fact, I challenge the Mansabdar of Parnagarh to come fight me! A fighter's place is here in the games fields... not out there selling horses... don't you all agree?'

'Yes...' at first, a few nods came through slowly. But as it soon dawned on the thrill-thirsty spectators as to how entertaining, how immensely gratifying it would be, to watch their hero vanquish a Mughal challenger on the field, the chants grew louder.

'YES...'

'YES...'

And louder.

'YES...'

'We WANT a fight'

'God... no...' Heera could feel her face flush pink as slow heat rushed up to the skin from exasperation. This was precisely what she wanted to avoid -
