Awesome update.
And you know I guessed right. Yippe for me!
After your hint I went back and scrounged through every written update and came up with two characters - BalGovind and that man who gave Helena the Scorpion and ultimately I felt BalGovind was it. I am right!!!!!!!!!!!
And this  brings the friend angle too hopefully.
Finally Battle!
I love battles you know. Live for these scenes whenever I read history.
I enjoyed it immensely though I wish you had been more detailed. I love the more I get to read...guilty pleasure you see😳

I am waiting for the next and am the first todayπŸ˜›


Thanks for reading Niki. Characters with depth are very few in CAS. It is inexcusable for a TV show to not have developed characters. Gray characters are non-existent. So yeah Balgovind was my only option.

This was just a minor skirmish. More battles are coming. But for your sake I added a few more details in the chapter now. You can re-read it if you want to.πŸ˜›

BTW hope your update is up soon. It has been a while.

BaburπŸ‘
I am at loss of words...
BalGovind 's appearence was a real surprise...
Bt what that really attracted me was the character of Senanayak Shunga 
I dont kniw whether you used this name keeping in mind that it was the Shungha Dynasty that succeeded the Mauryan Dynasty..

The last Mauryan Emperor... Brihadratha Maurya was overthrown by Pushyamitra Shunga who was his Senapati..

Really that angle of Shunga 's vengeance against the Mauryas deserve a huge applause...⭐️

And the way you described the appearence of the Magadh Army... the description of the flag and Chandragupt Maurya 's sword... are just simply awesome...πŸ‘

I m waiting fr the next...πŸ˜ƒ

What to say, I'm overwhelmed. Amazing, crisp writing, knowledge of warfare and clarity of thought have combined to make this FF a masterpiece. 

If only our CVs had a tenth of this talent, CAS would still be worth watching. I feel enraged and betrayed by what they have done to Ashok since the arrival of the unbearable and foolish Karuwaki.

I said this in EDT, am not a fan of teen romance, nonetheless I do admire the intelligent, political spin you have given to her character.  


Thanks so much for making me want to visit the forum

Yes Shelly. You are right. The Shunga dynasty succeeded the Mauryans. I plan to illustrate a rivalry(which is probably fictional) into this story.

Thanks for reading. Glad you are enjoying it.

You are welcome Rohini. Good to know that my efforts have been of use to the old forumers here.

So glad you are enjoying the story. Couldn't be happier. Thanks for reading.

The next update will be up by Monday guys. Sorry. Will be a bit busy this week.

πŸ‘I love your writing style, your words leap off the page and I can always picture your characters/scenes so clearly.

I absolutely loved the war sequence. All those poignant Fbs were nicely put up. That bit about how he felt guilty and recollecting the pain and grief helped to understand where this Ashok was coming from.

I also liked the bit where he remembers what his father did during the siege of PP. Perhaps such sequences explains his actions which I really like.

Never expected Bal govind to turn up. I'm looking forward to see how these new characters influence the future story.

Thanks for reading Ramsha. Yeah I will expand on the reasons for his actions and his thoughts in the later chapters. The battle might give you an impression that Ashok is an impressive warrior(which he is) but there are other things that will put the reality of it into perspective.

But unfortunately I won't be able to update before Thursday. 

Have an exam on Wednesday. And I need to tutor everyone in my batch. So will have to push it back. πŸ₯±
