Congratulations Shruti for foraying into the world of a new kind of writing for you...I'm sure it won't be so difficult tho u being a marvelous storyteller!!!

And the prologue has totally proved it!! At least from me you will never read any complains of not following history or even the norms of a certain era not being very familiar with Indian history specially of the 18th century!! 😃

A gory beginning with my dear sanskaar being lashed!! But oh! He has really lost his mind??? Hope not ...at least he recognized his Ma even in this terrible state...

Pls pm me when u update the next part dear

Love Tas


Hey Tas 🤗

How are you? Thank you so much for the well wishes as ever and you have more confidence in me than I have in myself! I just hope I don't disappoint myself or others with trying this but I have always maintained that pushing boundaries is necessary to grow!

Haha- the history is so deep and varied I was getting bogged down in details and then had to just decide not to get caught up in that and focus on the story and its feel instead. It is a gory beginning indeed! You will see what Sanskaar's state of mind is quite soon in the upcoming chapters:) I'll def PM and thanks again for this.

Love S xoxo

Dearest friends and readers,
Thank you for the overwhelming response to the start of this SS! I think I have now caught up to all comments so far. I return to work tomorrow after a fairly long vacation so my day and week ahead will be somewhat crazy! If I am tardy in replying please do bear with me, I will get to all comments as soon as possible. Also, I will be working on the next update and will aim to have it up as soon as I can! Thanks for you patience and support!
Lots of love,

Shru

Very Very interesting start.. U really got is hooked up to this ss..

Seems like this Bagri is gonna create more trouble for out loved Sanskaar...

Annupurna was amazing, her attitude, her concern for Sanskaar and how you described her was fab ...

No words for our Sanskaar, even after being so physically tortured for months, he can give a proper reply when someone rmtry to mess with him, be it Bagri or someone else..

Is Sanskaar really mad, because by what I read it doesn't seems so.. May be this is all done by Annupurna to get Snakaar out of there, and protect him from all that pain..

Continue soon, can't wait to read more of this ss..
Thanks for the pm

Shruti🤗

It was a pleasant surprise to find a PM sitting in my inbox named 'Dark Knight' and that to written by you. Am I glad that you have decided to venture into this world of Short Stories? Heck yeah! You are an amazing writer and reading any of your works makes me very happy and I look forward to reading this one too.

So this story is based in 1800s and me being a fan of historic fiction plan to enjoy this one to the fullest! The idea of SwaSan in one of those stories makes me wanna -> !

The Introduction/Synopsis itself was so captivating.! You have worded everything you want to show in such an eloquent manner, one just cannot not read further. 👏

Then the prologue! It was so gripping, needless to say I am hooked! I could so clearly imagine Sanskaar tied in the dungeons being whipped. And Annapurna as a Rani does sort of make sense. She has this quiet grace and elegance with extreme patience. Not really hard to picture her as such. Wow Shru! I am really looking forward to this story. I'm not a history buff but I really love the way people were in olden times. There is this fascination with the way people acted and reacted during those times.

I love your writing style and am definitely loving this SS.
Anyways, please update soon, awaiting it with great anticipation.

-V :)

P.S.: Thank you so much for the mention at the start! 🤗❤️

Shruti wow wow wow, I totally loved your SS👏.
Am not certain if I would be able to express how intriguing the story is.Am not that good with words , hope to write what I felt.

I love to read stories of royalty, ur description was like a movie unfolding before my eyes.The dungeons, the lashes, your description of the prisoner everything.
The marwars , their bravery, their horses is a legend in itself.
As a child when I read about chetak, was amazed at how inspite of injury he takes maharana pratap to safety.
Your use of their background makes it all the more romantic.

Wounded or not a brave man is always one, they would die but can never be meek.Your dark night is one of them.
Am really curious to explore the mystery surrounding this man.

Bargi am sure is a sadist and a greater coward.People like him can only put a brave front when the lion is caged.
If Annapurna is aware of people disappearing from dungeons, then she did the right thing to bring the man home under her care.
It's a curse and a blessing to be a queen.
Curse because they cannot fail , fall weak, cannot let the regal air around them falter.You have rightly said though she is in immense pain for her son,she has to be the regal queen, showing the other man his place.
Blessing in disguise coz even after two years she could save her son from the clutches of this vile man , unlike other unfortunate ones who could not do so.
Though makes me wonder why it took two years, and what is the gravity of the act committed by the prince to face this situation.

I love it when men who are brave, are soft towards their mothers.
They can be all that others cannot be but to their mothers they are always the softies .

All the mystery of your ss is too captivating.
Eagerly waiting for your next update.😊

Between loved your quote from "ThecTale of two cities". though have read only excerpts from it as prose in school.
Truly 18th century was an era of so many historical events around the world, that you have so may literary works based on them, and your story being of same era is even more alluring.

Wow,I am intrigued with kings and Queens and this background totally suits Sanskar. Your style of writing is different from what I've read in this forum. SO excited to read it. I have a request to you , can you write something on the settings just like " Wuthering Heights " was written. I love Bronte sister's works. I know that Sanskar is Heathcliff, in his own way. Best wishes 👍🏼.

Shruuu this was absolutely brilliant... I was actually waiting for you to write an SS... The way you describe a certain event actually makes me feel that I am present there...
When you described the scene where Sanskaar was being whiplashed I literally cringed at the pain he might be feeling...

By the way I am supposed to imagine an alternate reality but I think in the 18th century there were more of healers rather than doctors... *sorry I am sooo into 18th century highlander romance*

By the will be waiting for the next update
