Chapter 39 - Storytime

Harini's eyes reflected the dancing flames of the bonfire. 

She started in a dramatic tone that rivaled Naren's, smirked in at them pitifully, and started her story. 

"Years ago, when the land was thick and green with forest cover. When the absence of smoky machines led to a green field of nature and wisdom, there existed peace and harmony. 

From the crowns in the north, to the waters in the south, knowledge was shared and prosperity was reaped inside all the growing kingdoms. It was our country…our Bharat. 

One day, we developed a genius system, unlike any other scientific technology developed in the world! However, our smart minds, our joyous well being, only invited jealousy and greed from our neighbors.

They came here, wanting to raid India's beauty, but the warriors and scholars of India used a clever method of protecting our country. 

It double-sided our protections, a shield and a sword, inspired by our charming Gods and Goddesses. A tiger ready to protect its home, and pounce on whoever tries to destroy it. 

They took their strength and turned it into their weakness. Then they hid their strongest weapon, in the very area you are right now.

Legends say that the enemies are still boiling for revenge, until today."
