The women of Suratgarh were high-headed individuals. They knew what they wanted , they reached heights to get it. Even though Sudarshan Raj Pratap was the ruler of the greatest kingdom in Aryavart , he didn't have many wives. He selected only the able , talented and strong women. And, so was Maharani Chandrani , mother of the Crown Princess and Maharani of Suratgarh. 

Radhika:-

" Swarna , I've had an idea swirling in my mind for a few days. I need to form allies , don't you think? " , I asked. She made a thinking face and said " Indeed , but how? Who? Why? ". So many questions were hurled at once. She did care a load about me. " I think I should become allies with the children of the stronger queens of father. Eventually, the rest will follow". My plan was ready.

" Be ready and write what her lady dictates. Remember, no mistakes, she's the favourite daughter of the Maharaj" , Swarna warned the calligraphists. I called for them to write invitations to be sent to the other children. I started with the cards , I had to make it quick.

I invited them to come to my fun room , as I called it. They all know it , I am sure they won't decline. Afterall , I have been into court politics , especially royal politics for years now. And , being the Chief Queen's daughter taught me a lot.

It was a cool evening. Swarna informed me that everyone had arrived for the party. They were all heavily dressed. I decided to put on something glamorous. Maybe one of the saris father bought me recently.

A set of glistening diamonds was a compliment.


Krishna:-

I was feverishly praying to LaxmiNarayan for her well-being. She was hosting a party to form allies today. I hope it goes well. She sent me a word through her trusted attendants if something important happened. The queens were unpredictable.

" Jay , how're the preparations going? We must be ready for the final attack. The men have to be trained well" , my concern is evident. Radha told us that she would form allies and try giving a different course. She would ask the queens to help her convince Maharaj.

Her plan was to be on good terms with the ladies and their children. Then, she would ask them to support her in convincing her father to allow the Bahus back. She was really their Nathini . She thought for them. She completely overlooked our relationship in this matter and it hurt a bit.

Later , I came to know that all went well and guests were happy to be friends with her. I'm so proud of her! She was born to be a Queen . I promised myself in front of the divine pair that one day I would make her the Maharani of Suratgarh.
