Well... if his prime security officer, intelligence officer and most trusted man was out saving his life, I could imagine the Shehzaade staying awake - since his safe return benefits them BOTH! But Akbar's contribution to his life was irreplaceable... what I meant to say is that there could have been another mentor in Akbar's life to take the place of Shehzaade (even Chacha jaan himself was a great mentor) but the Shehzaade wouldn't find another Akbar!

True, no one can replace Akbar.
You have amazing clarity on your writings, Lashy.

Thank you so much, Chitti. ☺️

Before I write any scene/dialogue on a character, if at all I am in doubt, I do imagine the person/face I have in my head... and their past scenes too...

that'd give me greater clarity on how/why they would behave in a particular situation...

Not surprisingly, it is Shehzaade for whom I've had to do this exercise the most!😕

Happy Women's day to all my dearies 🤗
Back from Pittsburgh, lot of driving...but it was a good trip. Will post the pics. in the evening.

All of you were on my mind while I was inside the temple!! Being it was a weekday, there was literally no one there. So had good darshan, no rushing. Weekend is another story.

Good to know that the crowds and the weather were both co-operative and that you had a good darshan... and how sweet that you had us all in your mind while there! 🤗

Lot of HW, will catch up in the evening.

Lashy don't post answers to the QBs quiz please. I want to answer them!!

Sure dear... I shall wait for you... in fact, the qoobees are patiently waiting for Cookierani too!😉

A strong woman is one who feels deeply and loves fiercely.
Her tears flow just as abundantly as her laughter.

A strong woman is both, soft and powerful.
She is both, practical and spiritual.

A strong woman, in her essence, is a gift to the world!

Happy Women's Day, my Baisas and Sahiba!

Love,
Heera

Wow👏❤️⭐️

Hear! Hear!👏

Thank you, Heera, for this uplifting ode to women and coming from one of the strongest women we know, it makes it a treasured gift and that much more endearing.🤗

Lashy Sahiba, exceptional praises honouring the Sahibas and Baisas here. Thank you, Sahiba. Happy Women's Day to you, too. 🤗
Happy Women's Day, Baisas!😉

Paavam you 😆

Burn them down!

They used you, abused you.
They stomped over your integrity and kicked you down.
They shot at you and stabbed you behind your back.
They cursed, mocked and choked you till you were torn in half, Sahib!

There was a time, they nearly defeated you too!

But, they won't ever destroy your spirit.
You know when to be a tempest and when to be tranquil.
You know when to be a flicker and when to be a flame
When to shake the Earth and to sprout.

They may put so much energy to see you on your knees, vulnerable and weak.
But as long as you continue to
rise to your feet, they will
be blinded by the light of your glory.

Last line ufff👏

And with this HW too

When Shehzaade orders AMK to be taken to the dungeons...

Yes😃

Part 2 ? That explains it. But Nams said this round of anagrams was from Part1.😕

>>>No no part I... here...

Take him away to the dungeons!' His voice was beginning to sound tired, almost limp. And even his trusted old arrogance could not prop it up. 'I'll deal with the fallout later...'

'Huzoor... Huzoor...' a couple of guards flew up the stairs of the grandstand - their faces almost blue from breathlessness 'Huzoor...'

'Oh Lord... WHAT are you lot doing here?' He threw an angry hand to his left, pointing to the rucks 'You should be there, controlling the crowds!'
'But... but... but... our paths have been blocked'
'We have been ordered to stand down!'

'Orders? On WHOSE darned orders?'
'The Shehenshah's!'
Kuki, you truly deserve a trophy for this, dearie.👏

KUKI

A special trophy ... Thank you teacher🤗

Ufff I remember this! I loved this... had searched very long for this gif before I posted it! Had loved the visuals on TV (it was from the movie Macbeth) and instantly reminded me of AMK!

And with this HW too

Seeti maar!
