Maniyara, the golden kingdom was one of the wealthiest kingdom of it's time
It's wealth was not limited to economy, it was intellect and empathy
A land that almost sounds utopian
King Ariyavardhan

ep 2
Iravati
Rajkumari, you're already so grown up! When will you start acting like a woman 😭
Princess Maitreyi (FL)
I refuse to grow up! You said we lose our innocence when we grow up, if being childish is good then what's wrong with me being childish?
Iravati
You're almost in the age of marriage, who knows maybe you'll become a queen in no time!
Princess Maitreyi (FL)
I don't want to marry any man!
Ketaki
Hahaha! Then whom will you marry?
Princess Maitreyi (FL)
You!
Ketaki
Oh I wish I was a man
Iravati
Ok ok don't talk nonsense now, it's time to take bath Rajkumari
Princess Maitreyi (FL)
*sigh* let's go
Princess Maitreyi (FL)
Ketaki won't you come?
Iravati
She's always embarrassed infront of us!
Princess Maitreyi (FL)
We grew up together!
Ketaki
No, I'm good Rajkumari
Ketaki
Uh... I'll be going...
Princess Maitreyi (FL)
She acts weird sometimes
Iravati
Leave her, let me remove untie your braid
Princess Maitreyi (FL)
Oh Ira, what would I do without you! You're like my big sister
Iravati
*helped Maitreyi remove her jwellery and clothes*
Princess Maitreyi (FL)
*splashed water towards her*
Princess Maitreyi (FL)
Hahaha why not!
Woman
*whisper* there's some problem going on royal family!
Woman
Why do we care! We common people will suffer anyway, no matter what happens
Woman
Don't you think the princess is getting too old to marry
Woman
And they don't even have a son!
Woman
Only God knows what will happen in future! Who would be the king?

Clear this path, step aside everyone
They saw a man riding his dark horse towards the palace road, his whole face was covered under shining black hood, like it was challenging the mid-day sun
ep 3
Princess Maitreyi (FL)
Did you call me father?
Princess Maitreyi (FL)
What's the matter?
Princess Maitreyi (FL)
What happened? Are you hiding something from me?
Queen Angira
No dear, it's just ... You need some extra security
Princess Maitreyi (FL)
But why...
Minister Shantavir
May I come in Maharaj?
Minister Shantavir
Pranam Maharaj
Pranam Maharani
King Ariyavardhan
Where is he?
Minister Shantavir
Come inside...
The man came inside, his torso shining because of sweat, the light reflecting on his golden brown skin
And his eyes deeper than the ocean
Rudra
*took off his hood* Pranam
Princess Maitreyi (FL)
*looked at him with confusion*
Minister Shantavir
He's the man I was talking about
King Ariyavardhan
Rajkumari, He'll be guarding you from now on
Princess Maitreyi (FL)
But...
King Ariyavardhan
No buts, I don't want to hear any counter question
King Ariyavardhan
What's your name?
Minister Shantavir
Guards show him Rajkumari's room and the other parts of the palace
Princess Maitreyi (FL)
(Is this man going to look after me for 24x7 now! Who am I? A kid?)
Queen Angira
I know what you are thinking, we will talk about it later
Queen Angira
But always know that whatever we do is for your own good
Princess Maitreyi (FL)
How do you know he can be trusted?
King Ariyavardhan
We won't hire anyone without checking their background details, not for you
Princess Maitreyi (FL)
But what about my privacy?
King Ariyavardhan
Your life is more important than...
Queen Angira
Not now Maharaj
Princess Maitreyi (FL)
May I go now?
Princess Maitreyi (FL)
CAN YOU BELIEVE A MAN IS GOING TO BE WITH ME ALL THE TIME!
Princess Maitreyi (FL)
I already have enough bodyguards!
Iravati
It's ok princess, maybe they've thought of something
Iravati
They're the king and queen of this kingdom
Iravati
And most importantly, they are your parents!
Princess Maitreyi (FL)
IF THEY WERE MY PARENTS THEY WOULD NOT CAGE ME LIKE THIS!
Princess Maitreyi (FL)
They are just king and queen!
Princess Maitreyi (FL)
I DON'T WANT ANYONE!
Princess Maitreyi (FL)
I DON'T WANT TO BE PROTECTED!
Princess Maitreyi (FL)
I can take care of my own!
Iravati
Calm down Rajkumari
Princess Maitreyi (FL)
I CAN'T EVEN SCREAM NOW! BECAUSE I'M A WOMAN FROM ROYAL FAMILY!
Bhargavi
Hey calm down ok! Have you even seen him! He's so...
Princess Maitreyi (FL)
Bhargavi!
Princess Maitreyi (FL)
When did you come! Why didn't anyone tell me before!
Bhargavi
Ah I missed you so much!
Princess Maitreyi (FL)
Oh my Sakhi! I missed you too
Princess Maitreyi (FL)
*hugged her tightly*
Bhargavi
Ok ok now calm down! I'm here
Princess Maitreyi (FL)
Have you seen that man outside! Because of him I lost the last trace of my privacy
Bhargavi
That man right! Yeah he looks a bit scary but
Bhargavi
GOD! HE'S SO MUSCULAR! HAVE YOU SEEN HIS MUSCLES! HIS SKIN
Bhargavi
And his face so scalped, looks like he came from the west
Princess Maitreyi (FL)
Seriously! Now you'll talk about his appearance!
Princess Maitreyi (FL)
I just want to run away from here
Rudra
*heard her carefully*
Bhargavi
Let's go the garden! I have a lot of things to tell you!
Princess Maitreyi (FL)
Let's go
Rudra
*finally saw her fully*
Princess Maitreyi (FL)

Princess Maitreyi (FL)
*rolled her eyes*
