Yes Bond time is of the essence in this update.. .so along with a very heart-wrenching part of it (Everyone coming to know of what happened to their Sahib) they had to start being quick on their feet - so it had to be a mix of grief, planning, thrill - along with that came emotion in all forms... some of it light-hearted moments too!

Made it quite difficult to write because trying to write about the shifting emotions of 20 people without it sounding random made this a very difficult chapter to write!😆

ETA- Lavanya mentioned a point which hadn't struck me - that other than loyalty and gratitude, guilt was also a binding factor in bringing them all together...
Azeez, the bannas, Ratan kaka, Dhani & Bindiya - all of them suffer guilt and hope to atone for their sins!

Yes,I never gave much thought to her character😳 Kudos to you for never deviating from the original character of any one and involving everyone in the plot, wisely!👏


Paavam she's also always been in the shadows of Gauri and Bindiya like Sayyid...
But, I always had this scene in mind from the very first time I wrote about her!
Awww thank you 🤗


Oh you forgot to mention another favourite MB of yours - Mohan Banna...
Mahesh Babu and Mirza bhaijaan you wrote!😆

Congratulations on the new home baisas!

Lashy - thank you for c53. Did i tell you, you are a ⭐️
An exciting chapter with a positive vibe after so long. Though it started on a sadder note with Heera being ill, refusing to eat and guilt ridden for Khan sahib's condition; it picked up the pace later and ended with adrenaline rush.

Rose jaan must be happy that IM sahib was the star here, decoding the clues; level headed. It is amazing how both AMKs men and Heera's people from Parnagarh, especially Heera's side, came out of comfort zone to help their Mansabdar and Sahiba. All of them displayed their talents to the best to help AMK and Heera.

Dhani and Bindiya trained well by AMKs men, explaining all possible knacks to keep them exposed to minimal danger. Gauri spontaneous to suggest the idea of throwing out through the window and she planned it well - bribing to get the best room to get the bazaar view n the time too 👏 It reminded me of Pawan Kalyan's movie dialouge- "Nenu na time ni kaadu timing ni nammutha ( i dont believe in my time but my timing) 😆😆
Azeez's experience, Ratan kaka coming out of his shyness to help them vth scrolls, chachajaan's hearty banter about his smile 👍🏼👏

Now that you left us at a high point, please give us the next chapter sooner. 😊

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!

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

Yes they did da... they want their leaders to be safe... they owe them a lot!😳

Dhani and Bindiya trained well by AMKs men, explaining all possible knacks to keep them exposed to minimal danger.
👍🏼 Exactly!

Gauri spontaneous to suggest the idea of throwing out through the window and she planned it well - bribing to get the best room to get the bazaar view n the time too 👏 It reminded me of Pawan Kalyan's movie dialouge- "Nenu na time ni kaadu timing ni nammutha ( i dont believe in my time but my timing) 😆😆

Azeez's experience, Ratan kaka coming out of his shyness to help them vth scrolls, chachajaan's hearty banter about his smile 👍🏼👏
