As some of you may have already guessed, Volume 2 will follow Mahabharatha more closely compared to Volume 1 in which we barely grazed past Ramayana. To that end everyone may have some expectations about Kratos squaring off against characters from the epic.
I want to reiterate that this fanfic...
Let us not forget that Kratos has Brahma and Ravana's head with him. So any supplementary knowledge his student may need will come from them.
I won't talk about the three others you brought up because it may spoil crucial plot points in the next volume.
According to the epic, he was trained in warfare by Parashurama. Since in my fanfic Parashurama has liberated himself, Ganga approaches Kratos instead.
The influence Kratos will have in Devavrata's life may just be limited to the field of war. His other values remain the same. So there's a high...
Volume 1 ends here. There will be a short hiatus till the start of Volume 2 as I am still mapping out the story arcs and fleshing out the characters.
In the meantime, I am open to holding a Q&A or any sort of open discussion in this forum. Don't hesitate to hit me up!
Threadmarks: Chapter 41 - Winding Down & Epilogue [End of Volume 1]
The head's jaws creaked, and a loud wheeze escaped it as the head came to life. Its paleness lessened and gained a lively hue. Its eyes blinked and dilated visibly as they grew accustomed to the darkness. They swerved around before latching onto Kratos. The head smiled, "We meet again, my Lord."...
Kratos' return to Kailasha was without pomp or vigour. Once he exited the portal, which closed behind him, he found himself in front of his accommodations in this realm.
"Well," Brahma said. "That sure was… an adventure."
Kratos grunted in agreement. He put aside the spoils from the...
His repertoire is almost complete. BTW the conch shell Hanuman gives him is the in-story mechanism for fast travelling. He calls Hanuman and he flies him wherever he wants.
There was much Ram wanted to know about the enigma of a man seated in front of him. Who was he? Where was he from? And most importantly, how did he manage to leave Lanka intact and alive after slaughtering their Crown Prince?
Ram surmised that the ashen man, who had introduced himself as...
Ganesh opened his eyes and sat up immediately. His expression didn't change.
Today was the day.
Years of groundwork and planning were about to culminate right now.
He walked to his desk and picked up the roll of parchment. He gave the music score a final look. Every note was intentional, and...
The planning for Volume 2 is taking a bit more effort than anticipated. If I wait for completing a chapter of V2 before releasing one from V1 I don't think you guys will be able to finish V1 within the next 3 months.
So Im going to release 1 chapter till end of V1 weekly. So that we can close...
I actually didn't know that the Thai had a version of Ramayana until I went there and visited Ayuthaya. I talked a little with our guide and she told me some differences between the Indian version and Thai version.
For one Sita is apparently Ravana's daughter in the Thai Version. She is...
You're making me more and more interested in learning more about this particular interpretation of Ramayana. Which country is this from? Because ive read about the Thai version but its a bit different.
I was looking through the key points of Ramayana a few times and realized that the kidnapping of Sita is what triggers the crucial confrontation between Ram and Ravana. Sita is also an incarnation of Laxmi. So some interpretations suggest that Sita was also incarnated with the express purpose of...
In many ways, combat was like dancing. Sure, your partner was now your opponent, but that was often the only difference. Both were expressions of emotion through physicality. While dance allowed for a wide spectrum of feelings, battle was almost always steeped in rage. In particular, just like...
A/N:
Volume 1 will be 41 Chapters long. I am currently finishing up the 41st chapter.
I am contemplating whether I should create a Discord server for this Fanfic. I don't usually get a lot of engagements in the thread, so I don't know how useful a Discord might be. If you guys are interested...
