Chương 115: Deed-115: Mandara

{Jan 21st, 2003 A. Y. Yokai Realm inside Naimisha Kingdom's Palace} [After the courtroom meeting was dismissed, Ram sent his commanders to go and treat the guests with utmost hospitality while Ram went and did Sandhya Vandan as usual, and later left alone to the prison where Queen Mandara was imprisoned] [After the courtroom meeting Angel along with princes went and talked with Lotus with complete gratitude and after talking with Lotus she became an admirer of Lotus too, they both talked for hours that day, mostly about Ram, Ram's past and sometimes about themselves] [While Ram was going to the prison, he saw Sunshine and Honey approaching the prison too] [Ram shouts in the hallway] Ram: Where are you going, dears!?!

[Sunshine and Honey got surprised and turned back] Honey: Aah... we were going to meet the new queen, my lord! Sunshine: Yes, my lord! We are curious to talk with the new queen! [Ram smiles] Ram: At least make your lies believable! I never appointed my new queen as the gatekeeper of the prison! [Honey and Sunshine, with embarrassed faces, look down] [Ram goes and pats their heads] [Ram in a soothing and caring tone] Ram: I know you had no idea about anything of your mother's plan! I trust you all!

Ram: Follow me, I will show you why your mother ordered such cruel thing!!!

[Sunshine and Honey were relieved after listening to Ram's words that he trusts them, but they were still angry on their mother] [Ram leads the way while Sunshine and Honey follow him] [Ram asks his queens to wait outside the prison and listen to their conversations from a side] [Honey and Sunshine with rage and curiosity stand outside while Ram enters alone inside the prison] [Queen Mandara was sitting as a queen even in the prison, her pride didn't vanish] (Mandara) [On seeing Ram entering she greeted him with a smiling face] Mandara: You came earlier than I expected!

[Ram smiles] Ram: Why did you order to kill my son!?! [Mandara with pride] Mandara: Don't act like a child! Mandara: You know it!?! A mother always does things for her children! Mandara: If I killed your eldest son, then my grandson would become your heir and my daughter would get more loved by you, as she has the heir to the nation! Mandara: My eldest daughter never had a happy life, and that's all because of me! I wanted to make things right for her!

Mandara: Moreover, if I kill your eldest son then my grandson can become the king to 2nd, 3rd, 4th and 5th Ranking Kingdom! I wanted my grandsons to have all the things first! Mandara: I am fed up giving my daughter all 2nd hands! I want my daughters to become the real queens! [Mandara in anger and disgust] Mandara: But those morons tried to kill their own sons! I did everything for their sake but they sacrificed everything for your sake, happily!?!

[Mandara with a blissful smile on her face] Mandara: When I saw my daughter voluntarily doing so! I understood how badly and truly they love you!!! Mandara: That instant itself I understood that all my plans were going down! I understood that I would be killed by my own daughters if they get to know that what I did! Mandara: You sure are lucky, my dear! You have lovely queens! Please remember that day and no matter what, don't leave their side!

[Mandara sighs] Mandara: I have nothing in my defense to justify my actions! I am ready to get executed! Even my husband hates me now! I have no where to go, except the Narkh! Stolen content alert: this content belongs on Royal Road. Report any occurrences. [Ram in a bit interrogative tone] Ram: Are you guilty!?! [Mandara while smiling] Mandara: Yes and No!!! Mandara: Yes, I am guilty as the deeds I did result in hatred towards me by everyone whom I loved! No, I am not guilty as I have accomplished what I wanted!

My path might be wrong but at least my plan succeeded!!! [Ram smirks and smiles] Ram: Hmm, I free you!!! [Mandara shocked while Honey and Sunshine were surprised and were shaking with anger] Mandara: What!?! Mandara: Aren't you angry with me!?! I have killed your son whom you waited for 4 years with hope!!! [Ram smiles] Ram: That's fine! If I execute you now, then my sons would miss grandparents! I want my sons to have everything and grandparents are one of those requirements!!!

Ram: Moreover, you are not only mother of my queens but mine and Angel too! How can a son ever kill his own mother!?! Ram: There might be bad sons in the universe, but NARAYANA never created bad mothers! All mothers are goddess and I respect goddess! Ram: I have no grudge against you! We both need the same and that's my queens' happiness and smiles!!! Ram: How could I execute someone who has the same goals as I do or who shares my goals!!!

[Mandara with rage and anger] Mandara: Stop with all this manipulative talks! I am not your damn innocent queens! I am... [Ram smiles and in a dominating tone] Ram: You are nothing! Your husband hates you and your daughters hate you too! No one in this continent respects you!!! Ram: I know that you aren't the type who would commit suicide!!! You are a damn strong lady!!! Ram: You are nothing but my sons' grandma! Well, I never said that I won't punish you! I am absolutely going to punish you!

I am not going to execute you, that's it!!! Ram: Get free and spend your rest of the life becoming good grandma to my sons even when no one respects you! Ram: If you behave like great grandma to my sons! Then there would come a day when you might get forgiven by my yokai, until then taste the hatred, despise and disrespect of your own yokai!!! [Ram smiles] [Mandara smirks] Mandara: You sure are manipulative, toxic and abusive!!! [Ram smiles] Ram: Well, I am not NARAYANA!!! I am NARAYANA's son!

I am surely capable of evil!!! [Phasss Slassshhh] [Ram was surprised] [It was Honey who cut Mandara's neck with her fan's knife] [Ram stares Honey with anger and disgust] [Ram immediately goes and tries to stop bleeding] [Mandara while sighing and trembling with blood flowing out] Mandara: This is the reward which I got for raising you as my own daughter, haa? Mandara: I am sorry my dears! Mandara: I am sorry, my dear Ram! I suppose I am unworthy of being loved by someone ever again!

[Mandara with her last breath] Mandara: Ram! Pleaaase... Forgive her.... She didn't meaaan ttthoooo deefyy uuuu.... Pleeease love her like youuu usssse ttttooo... pleaaase dddooont ccalll miiieeyy daugggthers as moother muuurdeeers!!! Mandara: Pllleaase neeeveeer stoooppph llloooving themmmm, foorgive themmm andddd forgiiiveee meee myyy daughterrrrss for beeeing succcch aaa daaamn yokaaaieee...

[With those being her last words Mandara closes her eyes] [Sunshine goes and cleans Ram's hand with her clothes while Honey with guilt and regret falls on the ground and cries inaudibly] [Ram was speechless] Sunshine: Please forgive my sister, my lord! She can't control things like me!!!

[Sunshine and Honey fell at Ram's feet and beg for forgiveness] [Sunshine and Honey asked forgiveness for defying Ram's order, to forgive them from killing Ram's mother, to forgive them to kill someone who was under Ram's protection] [Sunshine and Honey begged for forgiveness] [Ram understood that they were not asking forgiveness for the sins but they were asking Ram not to stop loving them] [Ram pats their heads as his love towards his queens was greater than his ego and pride] Ram: Hmm, come let's go!!!

[Ram tears Sunshine's blood marks cloth and throws it away] [Ram while holding both of his queen's hands leaves the prison] [Honey with guilt and regret] Honey: Lord, I don't want our sons to be grown by such grandma! Please forgive me for my actions, my lord!!! [Ram pats her head] Ram: Hmm, let's forget all this! Let's never talk about this incident!

[Honey and Sunshine lean their heads on Ram while apologizing him all the way back to their rooms] [While Ram was leaving the prison he orders the prison guards to not let anyone else enter into the prison until a week, specifically Lord Madrid. He even ordered that no food to be sent inside!!! No one must go in for any reason] [Everyone saw their lord and queen walking the hallway, none knew what happened inside the prison] [Ram goes and makes them sleep, as he hasn't slept with any of them from past few weeks] [After making them sleep like babies, Ram leaves their room and orders Vidhur to blast the prison in a way that it must look natural and at the sometime it must all turn into dust] [Vidhur understood the task and used his brains while Ram returns to twin Queen's room] [Vidhur ordered palace yokai to go and keep the gunpowder for cannons nearby the prison and its surrounding, everyone was surprised as keeping such things out can be disastrous yet they did so as it was their commander's order] [After placing it all nearby the prison they all left silently] [Vidhur approaches Lord Madrid in secret and asked does he really wants to kill Mandara and Madrid agreed to Vidhur's proposal happily as he didn't want to forgive his wife for her sins] [Vidhur asks Madrid to shoot a thunderstorm arrow in the sky and target the thunder to fall nearby the prison] [Madrid did so, making everyone in the kingdom surprised] [After hearing such loud sound everyone in the kingdom got surprised, what was that sound, and they all saw thunderstorm falling on the new gunpowder storage room, everyone thought it was a natural disaster and even gods doesn't want to forgive a sinner] [Everyone in the kingdom became satisfied as no one defied Lord Ram and the Mandara got killed too. No one knew the whole truth except Ram] [Ram's queens woke up and hugged Ram out of fear] [Ram pats their heads and comforts them] [Ram along with Sunshine and Honey sleeps on their bed while Angel and Lotus sleep with babies in their rooms] [After the natural disaster Vidhur's eldest brother goes to Vidhur's home and talked with Vidhur for hours that night, while Lord Chand and Lord Madrid were being served by other commanders in the Naimisha's palace] ----Meet you in the next deed, Guys
