Despair , darkness , anguish and pain . They are uninvited guests who come in lives of people having less courage to face them. Clouds of distress appeared before the two souls who thought were destined to be together . After that tragic night everything changed . People hailed the king and prayed for his long life . The elders performed rituals for his good health . They had to do it since the sacrifice he made was immeasurable.
It wasn't just Alisha's meagre trust that hurt him but also the sudden epiphany that he himself lacked the necessary strength and power to defeat Shu Saura . What Rajhi and Azeelan feared eventually happened . Zen's left arm was paralysed due to the effect of poison and there was no remedy known to cure him . Efforts of every doctor failed , every herbalist failed but it didn't stop Zen from his duties . He continued to work for his kingdom . A small banquet was held to celebrate the release of people who were captured by Shu Saura . Everyone hailed him for protecting them and serving his duties well . .

The next morning a maid brought a set of clothes and some matching accessories to Alisha who just woke up after a terrible nightmare and was very disturbed .
