"This is Shreyansh. He will take care of father from now on." Dhishva said, introducing Shreyansh to Daksha.
Shreyansh joined his hands and greeted Daksha "Greetings your highness. I am Shreyansh. I will be his majesty's care taker."
Daksha just nod in response and looked at the door where Ankush was standing, trying to look inside the chamber to see Viraaj.
"Ankush, come inside." She said, making Ankush flinch in surprise.
Dhishva looked at him and sighed tiredly. "Didn't I told you to stay away from father's chamber? What are you doing here?"
Ankush came inside. He looked down and joined his hand "Forgive me your highness. But I just wanted to see his majesty. I didn't had any intention to enter in his chamber. I will never enter in his chamber ever again."
"It's good that you came here." Daksha said. She then turned to Shreyansh and said "He is Ankush. He was taking care of his majesty till now. He will tell you everything about his food, medicine and other things. If you need help, you can ask him."
Shreyansh nod and Dhishva said to Ankush "Tell him everything and leave fast."
Ankush nod, still looking down and feeling low. In his entire life, he never felt so weak and helpless. Viraaj's health is affecting him alot and thought of losing him making him feel even more weak. He have the fear that this man infront of him may try to harm Viraaj but he can't do anything except relying on Ajit, the guard outside Viraaj's chamber. He is the only one who can stay near Viraaj and keep an eye on him.
Ankush instructed Shreyansh about Viraaj's food and medicine. He glanced at Viraaj one last time with his helpless eyes and left from there.
Once Ankush left, Shreyansh looked at Viraaj and said in his mind.
'i am sorry, your majesty. But it's an order from the king himself. I can't disobey him.'
He then peeked outside to see if Ajit is looking inside. Once he made sure that everything is clear, he took out a packet of medicine and replaced Viraaj's medicine.
"When should I leave for Aaro?" Ira asked, combing her hair, looking at herself in mirror.
"We! I am going with you." Raksheet replied "Do you want to go soon? To meet your grandfather?"
Ira nod and looked at him. "I want to see how he is." Remembering her grandfather, her eyes teared up. "I shouldn't have let him go. If he had stayed with me, I would have taken good care of him. He doesn't have fall sick again."
Raksheet came near her and placed his hand on her shoulder and looked at her through the mirror. "We can't do anything about it. He has to return to his kingdom. We thought he will recover soon if he stays in his kingdom but things took such a big turn that his health deteriorated so badly."
The tears fell down from her eyes and she burst out crying, accepting the fact that may be she have to let her grandfather go, so that he don't have to bear the pain more.
Raksheet kneeled down behind her and hugged her. He looked at her face in the mirror and said gently. "Stay strong princess. He had suffered alot. We should not force him to stay. Let's spend time with him as much we can. He will be happy to see his granddaughter with him."
Ira nod and tried to calm down. She don't want her grandfather to leave her but she can't see him suffering more. She is feeling as if someone is pulling her soul out of her body and she can't do anything. She can only pray that the pain subsides.
She turned around and looked at him, wiping her tears. "Can we leave tomorrow?"
He nod and cupped her face "I will wrap my work today and prepare for departure. And...I have a request to make to your father."
"What?" She asked confused.
"I need his help in war. Bayar have a big army and I think we can't fight him alone. If your father helps us, we will surely win the war."
"But, do you think he will help us?" She asked, knowing that her father will never do anything for her. And something like this, where he have to participate in a war which is not directly connected to him, he won't agree to help them.
"I know he will not help us. But Aaro has signed alliance contract with Jwalana. They have to help us." Raksheet was sure that even if Dhishva don't want to, he have to help them because of the contract.
"Fine." Ira replied "What about the war? Bayar didn't declared it yet."
Raksheet nod "Yes. But they will soon. They will attack on Jwalana anytime. May be they will attack directly without announcing. Bayar have the history of breaking all the rule. Doesn't matter if it's on the battlefield or outside."
Ira held his hand and said "Please Raksheet, take care of yourself and everyone on battlefield. I am already losing my grandfather...." Her eyes turned moist in the fear of losing her husband too "I don't want to lose you."
Hearing her painful request, Raksheet's eyes soften and he hugged her gently. "I will. I will not let anything happen to anyone. We will come back safe and win the war."
"Send the message to emperor. Inform him as well as Jwalana that we are going to rage a war against Jwalana. " Abel said to Pavan who was deciding the war strategy.
"When will we attack?" Pavan asked.
"In three days." Abel replied "Princess Ira and Raksheet will leave for Aaro tomorrow. And day after that, the majesty of Aaro will be declared dead."
Pavan looked at his father in shock and Abel continued.
"We will let them do the last rituals and when everyone will be mourning his death, then....then we will attack them. They should also know what it feels like to lose someone so badly that you can't even mourn their death.
And after winning Jwalana and bringing Ira to Bayar, we will tell the world what Dhishva and Veer did to Viraaj. Ira will be broken to lose her grandfather and husband and upon that, she will get to know that her father and brother are murders of her grandfather. Then..."
He turned towards Pavan and continued "You have to give her support and win her trust. When a person is broken, he trust anyone who stay close to him. You just have to show your love and care for her and she will be yours."
A slight smile appeared on Pavan face just by thinking that Ira will come to Bayar and live with him. She will love him.
"How is Seya?" Abel asked.
