King Dhruv's POV

"How does she look?" I asked, trying to mask my impatience with a calm exterior. I was expecting some kind of portrait of Adiya. I asked my mother to show me her potrait that she had earlier shown to me. But turned out that they had thrown it away.

"Your Highness, we couldn't gather her picture. Turns out that she spends most of her time with her parents and grandparents and is present in the court only during some important discussions. She is new in the kingdom so less people have seen her even though the general public holds high regards for her." Said the spy.

"What other details do you have about her?" I asked, gritting my teeth. I was behaving like Diya now. Impatient. Not my usual demeanour.

"She was sent somewhere outside the kingdom for training when she was young and has recently returned. The Royal family hasn't disclosed the location as they were concerned about her safety" he said.

"Is there anything unique about her?" I asked, my patience wearing thin.

"Yes, she is spotted by a spy once at late night skipping the palace. He couldn't see her face clearly but she wore a blue beaded necklace. It was strange why a Princess like her could wear something so ordinary." Said the spy.

"Your highness, probably I can help." Said Anandji as he entered the court and I was filled with the ray of hope. It was decided that he would make a sketch of Princess Adiya since he knew her well.

Princess Adiya's POV

"What? I don't believe this!" I shaked with mirth, trying to control my laughter. I was scared of being seen in the pitch black night.

Anandji had dispatched a pigeon to meet him at night at the outskirts of the kingdom.

"He trusts me. I offered to draw him your sketch." He said.

"What? Why?" I was shocked.

"Don't worry. I have made them draw a wrong sketch." He smiled.

"You are a genius."

"Like I had said earlier, I would never ever betray my motherland." He said.

"By the way, what does he look like?" I asked. Curious about my rival.

"Long strong build. Wheatish skin and black hair. He has a strong jaw, a prominent Adam Apple and strong built with huge muscles. People in his kingdom hold high respect for him. He is known to be brave and visionary." He "If He would not have been our rival, I would have asked you to marry him! Very calm and collected person. Your complete opposite!" He said.

As we parted, I thought that the description completely matched with my Sahil. Then suddenly I remembered something.

Sahil used to draw the picture of a rising sun during the Gurukul day's. Very frequently. Was he anyways related to Surya Kingdom? I tried to remember his hint about his name..

"I too have a deep relation with sky...
I guide the sailors in the oceans high...
My home is where there is tremendous light..
You see up and it's close to your sight"

I was now feeling strangely suspicious. Probably Sahil seemed to be attached to Surya Kingdom. As I was returning to the palace at night by foot, I was thankful that the whole town, even though was pitch dark, there was some light due to the full moon. I looked up at the full moon and the stars.

All of them were twinkling. But one star looked mightiest of all. In midst of the constellations and thousands of the stars, only Dhruv star (North star) was identifiable. I pondered. Only moon and the Dhruv star had a prominent place in the sky. Because they both were easy to identify.

And suddenly it hit me! "I guide the sailors in the oceans high!" Which meant the north direction! "My home is where, there is tremendous light!" Did it refer to the sun? Because it showers the Earth with tremendous light!

"You see up and it's close to your sight!" He was talking about both the Dhruv star and the sun!!!!!!

Was Sahil, the King Dhruv???

I rushed to the Palace and quickly compared the handwriting of Sahil (from his letters to me) with the handwriting of the King Dhruv!

They seem to match! I had to do something. Quickly. Maybe it was just my suspicion but I know maybe I was right!

Heya friends! Sorry for the delay in the chapters. You see I am going through the back injury and it has affected my whole daily routine! I hope you all will understand! U
