Despite their prosperity, the couple's primary sorrow is their lack of an heir. As plot developments ensue, including a devastating war with the ambitious King Mânasâra and the subsequent birth of a son named Râjavâhana, the stage is set for a tapestry of interconnected stories. We meet a range of characters, including the king's ministers and their sons, each destined for remarkable adventures that will ultimately intertwine.
