After few days,

Amar had made the lives of stone mines workers easier by creating machines. Kumar also helped him whenever required. Ayanika had set up Gurukul to teach martial arts. Children from the age of 10 to 25 were getting taught there. Just on the opposite side she had created her own practice area. Whenever her mind became restless, she used to practice there.

Devasena was being taken well by the trio.

Ayanika was teaching her students when she noticed Kumar coming towards her running.

Kumar- (huffing) Raj... Rajmata... has sent something.

Ayanika- WHAT?! I mean what? Can you please tell more clearly.

Kumar- From the palace, she has sent two horses with Krishna idol.

Ayanika's eyes become wide. She runs towards the hut with Kumar running behind her. When she reaches the hut, she sees her horse, Som-Vayu and Amar's horse, Kal-Megh. Between them, a person was standing with Ayanika's Krishna idol. Amar sees her coming there and gestures her to come near her. She goes near him.

Amar- (gesturing the soldier holding a scroll) This soldier wants to give you the letter which Ma has written. He won't give it to anyone else other than you.

Ayanika- (trying to calm her mind down) Did she send you anything?

Amar quietly hands her a red shawl. This shawl was given to Amar on his 18th birthday. This makes Ayanika more tensed. She gestures the soldier to give her scroll. She opens it and starts reading it.

Dear Nayan,

Rahu ki dhrishti ki shakti apne asim charam par pahunch chuka hai. Ketu apne kali purush roop mein parivartit honi shuru ho chuki hai. Kuch dino mein hum shayad milenge.

Tumhari Ma,

Sivagammi

Ayanika closes the scroll, internally becomes tense but externally smiles brightly.

Ayanika- Bhaiya, she just sent her blessings for us and gave Sakhi blessings for healthy child birth. That's all.

Amar smiles and then quietly goes inside the house. Ayanika takes her Krishna idol and places it in a corner of the house. Then she guides the soldiers to place the horses in a area outside the house. She takes the thread and leaves quietly towards the shiv mandir.

At the Shiv Mandir,

She goes inside and ardh-shatang pranaam infront the shiv-ling. Then she sits in the meditation form. After sometime she opens her eyes. She goes out towards the peepal tree and starts tying the thread around the tree. After she finishes it, she does pranaam. As she is about to leave, she bumps into another person. She loses her balance and is about to fall when she feels someone holding her hand. She looks up to see Akanksh standing there in his half get-up of Panditji. He quietly helps her to stand.

Ayanika- (smiling) you look cute in this, Anant.

Akanksh- (smiles) I know Ananta, but when will you allow me to help you.

Ayanika- (becomes serious) Anant, you are required in Prayagirajyam more than me right now.

Akanksh- But...

Ayanika- (raises her hand) Anant, if you come over here, then your life will be danger which I don't want, because my heart is already in you. If something happens to you, I won't be able to survive.

Akanksh nods, understanding the situation. He just looks at her, as if asking you have some work for me.

Ayanika- (sighs) tell Renu and Aditya to come immediately to us as dressing as normal villagers. Ask them to bring their forces as normal villagers only.

Akanksh nods and goes towards Surya-jal. After sitting on it, he looks at her and then leaves. Ayanika takes a deep breathe to control her emotions. After sometime she goes back to her home.
