After 30 mins everyone arrived at the temple. There was a lot of hustle and bustle, large crowds of people were eagerly waiting to catch one fleeting glimpse of their future kings. The atmosphere was charged with anticipation, the air buzzing with excitement as the onlookers exchanged whispers and excited murmurs. The occasion marked a significant moment in the kingdom's history, a day when the transition of power was not just a formal ceremony but a spectacle that captivated hearts and minds. Families had gathered, children perched on their parents' shoulders, all eager to witness the historic event unfolding before their eyes.
The anticipation grew as the appointed time drew near. Security personnel maintained a vigilant watch, ensuring order amid the swelling crowd. Cameras clicked, capturing the essence of the moment, and reporters eagerly awaited the chance to document the reactions of the people as they caught sight of the future rulers.
All the family members got out of their cars and were immediately surrounded by bouncers who were making way for them towards the temple. Suddenly, a hush fell over the crowd as the doors swung open and all them entered the temple which was completely decorated with flowers of every colour and variety imaginable. Vibrant blossoms hang in garlands from the ceiling, forming intricate patterns that cascade down like floral waterfalls. Marigolds, roses, lotus flowers, and jasmine blooms adorn every available surface, creating a riot of colour and fragrance. The air is filled with the sweet, heady scent of the blooms, which adds to the temple's sense of serenity and reverence. The fragrance of the flowers mingles with the soft hum of prayers and the gentle rustling of leaves in the temple garden, making it a truly enchanting and tranquil space. Fragrant incense fills the air, creating a serene and sacred atmosphere. The soft glow of the candles and the gentle flicker of oil lamps add to the temple's enchanting ambiance.
All of them moved closer to the main shrine and bowed reverentially towards the goddess praying for wellness and the smooth flow of events. The Rajpurohit asked Ekansh, Vihaan, Aarav and Ansh to step ahead and take a seat Infront of the goddess and were asked to perform a few rituals, at the end the Rajpurohit handed each of them their swords which symbolized honour, duty, and the solemn responsibility they were about to undertake. The clinking of the swords echoed through the air, cutting through the excited murmurs of the crowd. As they held the gleaming blades in their hands, a profound stillness settled around them, emphasizing the gravity of the moment.
The swords, carefully crafted and adorned with intricate designs, symbolized more than just the royal lineage. They were a representation of the kingdom's history, the battles fought, and the challenges overcome. Each swing of those blades would carry the weight of tradition, a legacy to be upheld with unwavering dedication.
The Rajpurohit, standing beside them, spoke solemn words, emphasizing the significance of the swords they now possessed. He reminded them that these were not merely weapons but tools to protect, to lead with justice, and to defend the realm. The crowd listened in respectful silence, the air filled with a sense of reverence for the age-old customs being observed.
Ekansh, Vihaan, Aarav and Ansh exchanged a meaningful glance, a silent understanding passing between them. The weight of the swords in their hands was both a privilege and a burden, a tangible connection to the past and a commitment to shaping the future. As the Rajpurohit stepped back, the crowd erupted into cheers once again, acknowledging the gravity of the moment they had just witnessed.
After which they took the blessings of the Rajpurohit and the goddess and moved towards the stage set up in the garden of the temple.
All of them arrived at the stage and Ekansh, Vihaan, Aarav and Ansh stood near their respective thrones, the present kings and queens that is their parents stepped ahead to handover the crown and other official duties. They applied kumkum once again on their forehead, the guys bent down and took their blessings, following which Abhimanyu and Aawanya were to place the crown on Ekansh, Vineet and Avni on Vihaan, Anand and Ananditha on Aarav and Abhijeet and Geetha on their grandson, Ansh. As they placed the crown they spoke words of blessing, invoking the divine, and affirming the sacred right of succession. The crown, as it descended onto the heads of the future kings, seemed to carry with it an invisible mantle of authority. It symbolized not just the opulence of the monarchy but also the sacred trust bestowed upon them who wore it.
The crowns were adorned with glittering gemstones and precious metals, catching the light and casting a dazzling shimmer across the entire ceremony and it held not only material value but carried the weight of centuries of regal heritage. The weight of gold and jewels was surpassed by the weight of responsibility, a responsibility to govern with wisdom, justice, and compassion.
The placing of the crown signified the divine blessing and the rightful succession to the throne. It also marked the official commencement of their reign. As the elders stepped back, the newly crowned monarchs stood tall, their regal bearing now enhanced by the gleaming crown atop their heads. The crowd, which had been holding its breath, erupted into jubilant cheers, signifying their happiness and acceptance of their new kings.
Amid the cheers and applause, the new kings exchanged a glance, understanding the gravity of the duty now bestowed upon them. The crown, a symbol of continuity and legitimacy, sparkled in the sunlight, a beacon of hope for the kingdom's future. Moving close to the main shrine of the goddess once again , Ekansh, Vihaan, Aarav and Ansh embarked on a sacred ritual, a tradition that bridged the mortal and divine realms. With solemn reverence, they unsheathed their swords, the same swords symbolizing honour and duty, and approached the ornate altar where the statue of the goddess stood.
As they stood before the divine presence, a hallowed stillness enveloped the sacred space. The flickering flames of ceremonial candles cast dancing shadows on the grand walls adorned with tapestries depicting the goddess's legendary deeds. The air was thick with the scent of incense, and the only sound that pierced was the soft echo of footsteps against the stone floor.
With a deliberate and measured gesture, the monarchs glided their fingers along the sharp edges of their swords. A tiny rivulet of blood emerged, bearing witness to their commitment and sacrifice. The drops of royal blood fell onto the altar, mingling with the sacred symbols adorning it. The act was a covenant, a tangible connection between the mortal rulers and the divine entity they served.
By doing this they vowed to take care of the safety and well being of their people and that they would never back down from their responsibilities and would be a king who would provide justice in every situation and side with dharma (righteousness) at all times.
As the monarchs stepped back, their swords now sheathed once more, a sense of sanctity lingered in the air. The onlookers, having witnessed this intimate communion between royalty and deity, bowed their heads in silent acknowledgment of the sacred bond forged in that hallowed moment.
The ritual complete, the monarchs, now marked by both earthly crowns and divine consecration, exited the shrine, the echoes of the ceremonial proceedings reverberating through the sacred halls. The kingdom's fate now intricately woven with the threads of tradition, blood, and the divine blessing bestowed upon its rulers.
Immediately Ekansh, Vihaan, Aarav and Ansh made their way to the outside of the temple where people were waiting. They waved to everyone present there, the gleam of royalty in their eyes matched by the genuine warmth of their gestures.
Meanwhile, Isha, Meera, Saanvi and Ara were watching every movement of theirs keenly. They felt a sense of pride and their eyes sparkled with a mixture of awe and confidence, as if they held an unwavering belief that these kings, with their noble bearing and sincere demeanour, were destined to outshine any predecessors. They knew that their rule was marked by unmatched wisdom and benevolence and had an unwavering belief that their reign was a golden era, and history would remember them as the epitome of kingly excellence.
Right after the ceremony and meeting with the gathered crowd concluded Ekansh, Vihaan, Aarav and Ansh along with their families left for their respective kingdoms to make their appearance there while, the guests were escorted back to their rooms to relax and it was decided that lunch would be served in their rooms itself.
Ekansh, Vihaan, Aarav and Ansh arrived in their respective kingdoms and made their appearance, addressed the crowd waiting for them and spent sometime there. After a while, they returned back to Udaigarh as one last grand dinner was arranged before the guests were to leave.
Once they arrived in Udaigarh, everyone retired to their rooms to change.
At around 8, all the guests started arriving at the garden, which was lavishly decorated with an abundance of vibrant flowers, twinkling fairy lights, and elegant drapery. The air was filled with the sweet fragrance of blossoms, creating a magical atmosphere. Tables adorned with exquisite centrepieces and candles awaited the attendees, offering an inviting space for conversations to bloom. A huge table was laid out at the centre, adorned with an opulent display of fine linens and adorned with exquisite tableware. The air was filled with the irresistible aroma of culinary delights, as the table was covered with scrumptious-looking, luxurious dishes that promised a feast for the senses. From decadent appetizers to indulgent main courses, each dish was a masterpiece, skilfully crafted to delight both the eyes and the palate. Soft music played in the background, adding a melodic touch to the enchanting scene. Servers were moving around with trays which contained glasses filled with exquisite drinks. As laughter and greetings echoed through the meticulously arranged space, it became clear that this garden had transformed into a haven of beauty and festivity.
Ekansh, Vihaan, Aarav and Ansh along with their family members also arrived there.
While the elders and Ekansh, Vihaan, Aarav and Ansh were engaged in talks with the guests, the youngsters decide to slip away and have some fun so they dragged Isha, Meera, Saanvi and Ara to a table which was at the farthest corner. They started chit chatting and cracking jokes when
Ishan said " arey yaar mujhe lagta hain main bhuk se mar jaunga , subha se kuch nahi kaya hain, let's go get some food"
(Translation - I think I'll die with hunger, we haven't eaten anything from morning let's go get some food)
All of them agreed and Dhruv continued " Di aap log idar hi beto, aap log tak gaye honge hum ap keliye khaana late hain "
(Translation - di you guys sit here, you must be tired we'll get food for you)
All of them went away to get some food and the girls stood at their table talking. Suddenly they felt like someone was constantly looking at them, it was disturbing them and making them feel uncomfortable. They just decided to ignore it and got back to their conversation when four guys came near their table and stood very close to the girls. They looked at the girls with eyes filled with lust which made the girls feel very uneasy.
One of them said " Aap log kitne sundar ho, kaash aap hamare hote"
(Translation - you guys are so beautiful, wish you were ours)
The other said "hamaare paas aao ham tumhen jo chaahen denge"
(Translation - come to us we'll give you whatever you want)
The girls, feeling uncomfortable and anxious, decided it was best to distance themselves from the approaching group of guys. They had a gut feeling that this situation might escalate into something they wanted no part of. However, as they tried to make a quick exit, the guys, fuelled by misplaced confidence and misguided intentions, reached out to grab their hands.
In an unexpected turn of events, the air crackled with tension, and before anyone could react, hard punches found their way to the faces of the guys. The swift, unexpected counterattack left them bewildered and disoriented. The punches were powerful and were self-defence reaction from the girls, who had sensed danger and acted decisively to protect themselves.
The guys, now nursing their aching faces, began to understand the gravity of their actions. The situation had taken a sudden and violent turn, teaching them a valuable lesson about boundaries and consent. As they regrouped and retreated. This incident served as a stark reminder that respecting others' boundaries is a fundamental aspect of healthy and respectful interactions.
Ekansh, Vihaan, Aarav, Ansh, Jay and Reyansh were watching the entire situation and were about to step in but, seeing the manner in which the girls handled the situation, a smirk appeared on their faces.
As the youngsters were returning with plates filled with food, they saw Isha, Meera, Saanvi and Ara walking towards them. They asked the girls what had happened but, the girls just replied saying they wanted to look around. The youngsters just nodded and handed them their plates. All of them quickly finished their dinner, the guests also started leaving one by one after bidding goodbye to the family members. After everyone left, all the family members also retired to their rooms to get some much needed sleep but, even if they were exhausted they were contended and filled with happiness.
