Even before the roosters crowed, the imperial hall of the Amaian palace was crowded. They were the representatives from other countries in the Mekong conference committee. They gathered there as they heard about the bat incident and were concerned or literally afraid thinking if they had angered Hiranga. King Naresh entered and the others stood in ,toasted a glass of tea in respect. He perched on his throne and all were settled. The crowned prince Yuvan stood, came to the aisle bowed and said "Long live your majesty. Yesterday a man in black precisely cobra .." People gathered there started rustling like a brook hitting pebbles; a sudden outburst from fear. Yuvan lighted his voice a little and cleared his throat; a silence was followed and he continued "Yesterday a man in black precisely speaking cobra, left a message for the majesty. Charan .."He gestured to his bodyguard and Charan  presented  the letter with petals to the majesty. His majesty received the letter and had a quick check. His face lit up "Good very good." "Yes your majesty, Hiranga has accepted our request and agreed to conduct This year's Mekong conference." He completed his words and went back to his seat. "Now it's time to end the legend of what Hiranga is and how it looks." Abhik looked at his brother with a sense of pride. "It's not yet to laugh, Abhik.  Since they decided to adjust a century old rule; then they have tricks up their sleeves. " Yuvan looked at them. Amanya was following the light that led the way in that dense forest. Slowly that light started to fade and she could sense the jasmine scent again. In the fading of light she saw a girl with long hair and white dress vanishing in the darkness. She was the source of this scent. She felt a strange sorrow overwhelming her and brought her to tears whenever she smelled it. The light completely disappeared. She closed her eyes and followed the scent. She walked a few steps and suddenly slipped and fell into a deep river. She opened her eyes in a shock and stood up on her bed. It took her some time to get herself realize that it was a dream. She looked around and felt relieved; She is in her bedroom, in her White flower mansion. She washed her face and took a walk in her garden. Her servants greeted her on the way "Princess, breakfast is ready." She went to have her breakfast and in a while was joined by Jatin and Dhruva. "Amanya you still smell jasmine" Dhruv looked at her while having his tea. "What?" She dropped her cup. "I was just joking. Don't tell me you are still thinking about it." He smiled at her . "You.."

"No. It's just that majesty wants to see you so he sent me to inform you." "ok. I will meet him after the meal. Do you want to join?" "No. Thankyou" "Aram, I just noticed you look tired. What happened yesterday.?" Amanya was looking at him and touched a hot pot near her. Aram got scared and screamed at the servants for placing it there. All three, even the servants present, were startled because Aram was known for his calmness. Jiva exclaimed "Aram are you.." "Nothing." He returned in a hurry.
