Fun Fact

'Have you noticed how our Ilavarasi is becoming more beautiful day by day' Said one woman
‘Yes I have noticed, but what is the use of beauty if one remains barren’ Venba said to another woman.
‘What are you talking Madhi? You know if any royals heard you say that, they will have your head’ Said Sandhya who is currently collecting flowers for the evening.
‘Why would they? I am not saying any false information, I am just pointing out the fact right?’ Madhi said and looked at Venba.
‘She is our Ilavarai and we should make sure she is happy’ Venba said calmly and shook her head at her friend and helping hand.
‘But I am worried about our Ilavarasi, As she got married way before her brother and our Ilavarasar Ponniyin Selvar, but she does not yet birthed any children nor impregnated successfully’ Madhis words made Venba think, it is true whatever her friend said and Chola Desam is yet to receive jewel from their beloved Ilavarasi.
The people of Chola desam went ecstatic when Ponniyin Selvar announced the new baby Prince who is named Rajendra Cholan born 6 moons before. A healthy baby boy was birthed by Kodambalur Princess Vaanathi. But it only made people question why Ilavarai Kundavai didn’t yet get pregnant.
Many accused Ilavarai's marriage to Commander Vallavaran Vanthiyadevan is just for political agenda and the princess is cursed to have children that's why for name sake she married but still resides in Thanjai rather than to take the Magadai kingdom. But many praised the princess for the bold move and thanked that she chose the Chola kingdom always.
As the two women vent out their thoughts it’s been heard by the one whose eyes never shed tears for many matters are now filled with salty tears. Ilavarasi of Chola desam Kundhavai Pirattiyar
Holy mother of lemons, I struggled so much with these architecture practices.
Never again with Indian/Moorish/Islamic/Arabic architecture. The details will kill me...
For those interested my references are: Alhambra Palace in Granada Spain (featuring Kalim and an imagined body of water) and Brihadeeswara Temple in Thanjavur, India (featuring Jamil from an angle that probably doesn’t actually exist in the temple)
I’ve done similar sets with Octavinelle, Ignihyde, and another with Savanaclaw

Prologue
I am going to kill my old man when I find him.
'Thatha!!' I shouted and ran through the woods to get the tracks to find my grandfather who lost his mind. Seems he is punishing me and making me do cardio at this time of the day.
'Thatha! Enga iruke? Iruta poguthu!' My throat became raspy by all the shouting. As I was about to turn right I heard some steps coming from behind me. Those don't sound like my grandpa.
I went in behind the trees to find out who or what it is. Nobody is supposed to be here, this is private property. My old man surely planning to get me killed.
I shook my head thinking I was hallucinating and turned my back to continue the search but as I was about to cut into another path a hand grabbed mine but I used my other arm to hit whoever that Mother F***er is that, cause hell that's not my Thatha!
I sure heard a crack and a figure fell down holding their nose and howling in pain. I came to my senses and saw a boy around my age with great luscious hair breathing heavily while holding his nose, his eyes shot to mine, and anger flashed through them.
I quickly grab something for self-defense, I ain't gonna let someone harm me.
'Who are you!? This is private property! Leave or I'll call the cops!' I stood straight and took out my phone to dial 100.
'என்ன உளறுகிறாய்! ' His choice of language made me look for a minute, It's Tamil but it's kinda different. But I continue to try for the emergency numbers but damn no signal nothing! He rubbed his nose and I can now see his face. Damn he is good looking
'Thatha' I shouted again, now I am getting scared.
'என் கணையாழி உன்னிடம் எப்படி வந்தது' He asked pointing to my finger. I looked at my ring and back at him. What the hell he smoked? This is my family heirloom.
Translation
Thatha! Enga iruke! Iruta poguthu! - Grandpa! Where are you? It's going to be dark soon!
என்ன உளறுகிறாய்! - What nonsense you are talking!
என் கணையாழி உன்னிடம் எப்படி வந்தது - How did you get my Finger ring?
