Father's Letter

One month had flown away,
Srinika adjusted to her new living conditions very well. She was loved and pampered by everyone. Her days now included helping the students practice their weapons, helping her mother with house chores, debating and studying with the rishis and Maharishis.

She had grown rather close with the princes and taught them how to do their chores on their own. She also became the media between The Princes and Luv-Kush because there had been some very bad fights and disputes.
The reason behind the fights was simple The Princes were not used to doing things on their own and made some mistakes they insulted Luv- Kush to which Luv-kush retaliated which caused a lot of trouble in the Ashram.
Only two people in the Ashram were capable of stopping these kids from ripping Each other's throats out,
Shrinika and Sita.

Apart from all this drama, srinika became very close to her mother and brothers always being around them and helping them in any way possible. She grew very close with her mother bonding on different things like their shared love for archery and cooking. She also developed a very close bond with Luv-Kush who saw her and their second mother and become very clingy like babies.

One fine morning, on the day of Karthik Krishna Paksha Pratipada. Early in the morning Srinika just completed her morning routine and was about to head towards her weaponary class which she had organised. She saw a very familiar-looking bird coming in her direction, It was an eagle and it came from Mahendragiri because it was the eagle which lord Parshuram used.

She was very excited to receive a letter from her adoptive parents, she held her hand out for the Eagle to sit upon then she gently stroked his head and took the letter which was tied upon his feet.
Then the Eagle flew away from her and sat on a tree, waiting for her to read the letter and pin the reply down.

She excitedly opened the letter and started reading its content.

Priye Putri Bhargavi,
Asha karta hun ki tum bilkul theek ho aur prasannchit Ho.
Kaise ho mere bacche?
Tumhare jaane ke bad Se To Jaise Mahendra Giri ki shobha Hi Chali Gai Ho,
Tumhari Mata ko Tumhari bahut Yad aati hai aur mujhe bhi,
Asha Karta Hun Ki shighra Hamari bhent Hogi,
Aur vah sab Kuchh Achcha hai na?
Apne bhaiyon aur Mata Se Milkar kaisa laga?
Putri main yah Patra Tumhen likh raha hun Kyunki Mujhe Tum Ek bahut avashyak Suchna deni hai,
Mahendragiri se Thode hi niche Ek Gaon tha, use Gaon Mein Kuchh Samay se asuron Ne Aatank Macha Ke Rakha Hai,
Putri Mein Dhyan Mein ja raha hun isliye Khud Kuchh Nahin kar sakta,
Isiliye shighra ATI shighra yahan aao aur is samasya ka nivaaran karo yah Tumhare Liye Ek chunauti Hai Putri.
Aur Main Jaanta hun Meri Bahadur beti Kisi chunauti Se Piche Nahin Hatti,
Shighra Milenge,
Bahut sara Prem aur Sneh aur Tumhari Ma ke Thode Se Aansu bhi,
Pitashri
