Bio:
In the deep lands, there lies a city at the edge of the abyss, a darkness so deep that even the sea dragons tremble when staring into its depths. The city of Dwarak, many stories waft through the seas, stories for glory, beauty, wisdom and strength. This story like all that are rise from Dwarak, follows the same pattern. It is the story of Prince Yada, the jewel of the sea…
We begin the story with the song of whales, the sign of royal birth. The three sons of King Garou have finally hatched, Bheema, Maara and of course Yada. The king holds a magnificent feast in the city in celebration of this happy occasion. A feast rages for seven days and seven nights.
The kings son grow, they grow wonderfully. Each son begins to show greatness in his own way and it pleases the king so. Bheema, he is the strongest and has the strongest will, the first born and next king. Yet he is cursed with naiveté. Maara, he has the fastest mind and a strong affinity with the arcane. Yet he suffers from a raging ambition. Finally, we have beautiful Yada, mischievous and wise. He is adored but no one cares or his words.
As the brothers grow, they begin to thirst for adventure, much to the agony of the royal guard. It is often they escape from the palace and explore the coral forest at the mouth of the abyss. On one such day, we begin the next act of our story…
The three brothers walk casually through the corals of the Gaola forest, they chatter amongst themselves.
“The forest doesn’t offer us any challenge these days, I am already bored” says Bheema.
“Perhaps it is not the forest but only that we have grown stronger,” says Maara with a chuckle.
“Ha ha that may be so, but I’d like you to tell father that” says Yada, but then the spark of mischief strikes his mind.
“But there is one thing we haven’t yet done in the forest, something that is often forbidden to us. The mouth of the abyss. I for one have always
wanted to see what this abyss is” says Yada.
His brothers frown, at his suggestion. The abyss is something of a taboo subject among the denizens of Dwarak. But Yada has cunningly chosen his words, touching upon Bheema’s bravery and Maara’s curiosity.
“It is rare, but it seems that little brother has come up with good idea,” said Bheema.
“Well although I would usually refuse, even I am curious about this thing,” grumbled Maara
“Good then, onwards brothers” says Yada
They do not tarry and make way towards the abyss, it is a fair distance away and they must evade the royal guard. By the time the boys make it to the edge, their sea horses are flat on the ground from exhaustion.
The mouth of the abyss, it is a huge thing, and the abyss, the Patala, even more so. All of Dwarak is merely a cliff along its edge. A darkness expands out everywhere overwhelming ones field of vision.
However, that is not all, as the brothers peer over its edge, the see something in the darkness. They begin to notice that it is not uniform, like silhouette of ink, the see shapes move within it. Then they begin to fear, fear of the dark, of the unknown. They then notice something moving a dot of light, rising, moving, and pulling the shadows with it. They quickly pull back, their hearts trembling, their legs quaking
For a moment, they are silent.
“I..I think it is time w..we went back” says Maara. Both his brothers nod in unison. As they gather themselves and finally stand, all of a sudden everything goes red. A blood red light bathes across the area, blinding them for a moment. Then it is gone, in its place is a red gem. A perfect sphere the width of a thumbnail.
The gem gently floats down in front of the brothers. While Bheema and Yada feel a sense of revulsion towards the gem, Maara feels wonder. He edges forward and picks it up. The gem reacts to his touch, and then with another flash of red light it attaches itself to his forehead. Maara immediately falls unconscious.
Afraid, Bheema and Yada take their brother back to the castle. They call the royal doctor, explaining to him that their brother suddenly fell unconscious. They fear that if they say the truth, their brother may suffer the wrath of the king.
“Uuu… What happened?” says Maara as he wakes up from his slumber. His brothers only sigh with relief.
“Hah, well there is that saying about too much curiosity and catfish,” says Yada, a smile back on his face.
With this, the brothers return to their daily lives. However, this day’s even will come to haunt them in the future. As the brothers grow older, they begin separating, each beginning to walk his own path. Bheema begins to train diligently as a warrior and for his position as future king. Maar starts to study hard and deep into the arcane. Yada, is as always a free spirit moving from one thing to another based on his whims.
However not all is well, as the brother’s reach their sixteenth birthday, Maara and Bheema begin to get into more and more fights. Slowly anger turns into hatred, and soon they are at each other’s throat. Near their sixteenth birthday, Maara begins to change. Becoming darker, more brooding, he is heard talking with himself.
Then on their sixteenth birthday the worst happens, what should have been the day when Bheema was presented as the prince regent, ended in a blood bath. Maara, stormed the castle with an army, one made from shady dealings from the lesser lords. Within three days he slaughtered the palace guards and the king.
With but a word of power he encased Bheema in a blood red crystal. With a mad cackle he threw Yada out of the country, and with a dark smile he sat upon the golden throne. The light of Dwarak was snuffed that day.
Now Yada roams about as a vagrant, he has only one goal, and it is not revenge. For Yada is wise, he knows that it is his duty as the last of son of Iza to bring the light back to Dwarak. For this he needs strength, strength he does not have but will soon get.
