Incandescents
Peace is a veneer which the powerful use to hide their own agenda and bide their time - an ephemeral dream of tired souls to be capitalized upon by the vigorous. Stability is another such thin illusion.When one of the most famous king disappears from his kingdom in the wake of treachery within his court, ripples spread out throughout the world. Be it social, political or merely concerning the psyche of the collective consciousness, changes follow in the wake of his disappearance.Trailblazing one such ripple, a young man and woman cross the ocean looking for something which they are not even sure of, meeting some brightly burning lives along the way and bit by bit beginning to understand what they had left in search of. Ripples never remain stationary, and thus new wavelets spread out and away from them, all creating their own waves.Amidst all this chaos of destruction, introspection and construction, all the rising stars share just one definite common consensus - a war is looming on the horizon. But the answers to questions like where will it strike from, what will they do - those are the answers no one is sure of. In the midst of war, they must find their own place in the world.

AMBIVALENCE: Love triumphs over Hatred
The door creaked open, and there he stood - Arjun Maheshwari, a silhouette framed by the doorway. His eyes, once the sunflowers that captivated Maham's gaze, now held a different story."Arjun, you're back sooner than expected," Maham remarked, her eyes betraying a mixture of surprise and curiosity.Arjun, meeting her gaze, carried the weight of unspoken words. "There have been developments," he replied cryptically, his eyes revealing a turbulence within. His gaze fixated on Maham, seemed to be wrestling with a revelation. The premature return hinted at an undercurrent of tension, a deviation from the anticipated timeline that set the stage for a fresh wave of challenges and discoveries.In those initial moments of reunion, neither Arjun nor Maham ventured into the tempest of conversation.As the hours passed, the room became a silent arena where glances spoke volumes and the air crackled with unspoken tensions. "I found something, Maham," Arjun finally broke the silence, his voice tinged with a mixture of pain and urgency.Maham, pausing in her actions, looked at him with a furrowed brow. "Found something? What do you mean?"Arjun hesitated, as if grappling with the weight of the truth he was about to unveil. "Proof," he said tersely. "Proof that indicates your involvement, Maham, in something much more sinister."Maham's eyes widened in disbelief, her heart pounding in her chest. "What are you talking about, Arjun? We've spent months together. You know me!" "The truth has a way of revealing itself, Maham. It hurts, but I can't ignore what I've found" said Arjun. He came forward to her and caressed her cheeks feeling her sweet breath on his lips then he moved backward the tender moment, however, took an unexpected turn as Arjun's hand, which had moments ago caressed her, now delivered a resounding *SLAP*. Stunned, she looked at Arjun, his eyes now devoid of the warmth she once knew.
