Description

In a dazzling palace that has housed a hundred kings, a fierce young princess named Yasmini commands attention. She despises pretenders, demanding respect through skill in combat rather than courtesy, and treats love as a weapon forged for necessity. The narrative follows a curious chronicler who, enchanted by her fire, records her daring exploits amid the scented halls and the vivid murals of ancient Indian deities.

The story unfolds during Yasmini’s brief political eclipse, when she retreats to a sanctum of three‑coloured gods, surrounded by incense and melancholy flutes. Here she begins her first true romance—an affair that tests her resolve and the loyalties of those around her, while her sharp wit and generous rewards keep allies close. Through the chronicler’s eyes, listeners glimpse a world of intrigue, honor, and the restless ambition of a princess determined to reshape her destiny.
