-AUTHOR'S NOTE-

I am always up for constructive criticism but Bashing is strictly prohibited. No one can be perfect thus look at every character as Humans, instead of gods or goddesses. Any resemblances to actual person living or dead, events or place is a mere coincidence. The pictures except for the covers and aesthetics are taken from the web and all rights belong to their respective owners.

The protagonist Lakshmanaa is NOT mentioned directly in BORI Mahabharata. Her marriage to Samba alone is mentioned in Bhagavata Purana and Harivamsa. So The tale is partially fictional though I abide by the facts and the characterization as portrayed in Vyasa Bharata.

I am aware that Lakshman and Lakshmanaa are considered twins and this theory is wide-spread. But by the calculation I made, Lakshmanaa is the younger sister of Lakshman and not his twin sister.  This fits the timeline as well, given Lakshmanaa was married just before the war. I will be adapting this idea in this tale. 

The character list only has the important characters as for now. Any new characters would be introduced when they enter the tale.

Do read, vote and comment.
