Chapter 1: The Invasion
The kingdom of Kshatriya was under attack by the powerful Persian army, led by the ruthless Prince Xerxes. The elderly Indian king, Raja Devadatta, stood on the frontlines of the battlefield, sword in hand, fighting tirelessly to protect his kingdom and its people. Despite his valiant efforts, the Persians were relentless and made steady progress, forcing Raja Devadatta to make a difficult decision.
In a desperate attempt to save his lineage, Raja Devadatta came up with a plan to hide his only child, his 5-year-old daughter, Princess Jahnavi. He knew that she was the only hope for the kingdom and its people, and he would do anything to protect her. The king feared that if the Persians were to capture Princess Jahnavi, they would use her as leverage against the kingdom and its people, putting them all in grave danger.

Chapter 2: The Escape
Raja Devadatta was well aware of the danger that the Persians posed to his kingdom and his daughter. He feared that the Persians would not stop until they had found and captured the princess. Therefore, he came up with a plan to hide her among the commoners, where she would be safe from the grasp of the Persians. The king placed the princess and 11 other young girls from the kingdom into 12 different families of farmers. These families were scattered across different regions of the kingdom, and the king ordered them to seek refuge in smaller kingdoms.

With the Persians closing in, Raja Devadatta put his plan into action. The
princess was placed in the family of a farmer named Pandu and his wife, Kunti. All
the 12 girls were given a singular name which would evoke confusion and anonymity.
They were told to give her a new name, Ganga, and to raise her as their own
daughter. The king hoped that this would keep the princess safe from the
Persians, and that she would be able to live a normal life, free from the
danger that the kingdom faced. The king had made the right choice in placing
the princess in the care of the farmer family, and he hoped that she would be
able to live a peaceful life, away from the danger that threatened the kingdom.
The king received messages from various part of the kingdom in his constant
battle with the Persians of his daughter’s whereabouts and her progress. This
went on for several years. Until one day, he was caught and forced in to giving
away his kingdom to the Persians. He was demoted to an advisor to the Persian chiefs and warlords.
The king's heart was heavy with the loss of his kingdom, but he was comforted by the thought of his daughter being safe with the farmer family. The 11 other farmer families who had taken in the girls from the kingdom were similarly chosen for their integrity and trustworthiness. All the girls were exposed to good learning and were raised with the same care and love as Ganga. The king kept a close watch on the progress of all the girls, and was pleased to hear about their growth and development. The girls were trained in various arts and crafts, and were taught the ways of the kingdom. They learned about their heritage and the traditions of their people, and they grew to love their kingdom and their people. The king hoped that one day they would return to their kingdom and reclaim it from the Persians. The girls, now young women, were ready to take on the challenge, and they all eagerly awaited the day when they could return to their rightful place in the kingdom.
But unaware of her true identity, Princess Jahnavi, now called as Ganga was growing up to be a warrior princess. She had a fearless spirit, quick wit, and a kind heart. Every day, she trained with the other girls in the kingdom, learning the art of sword fighting, horse riding, and archery. She was determined to be ready for the day when she would be called upon to defend her people. Her quick thinking and bravery often saved her friends from danger, and she quickly became a leader among them. The farmer families who raised her and the girls in the kingdom recognized her potential and encouraged her to continue on her journey to becoming a warrior princess. Little did she know, her true identity and her destiny to save her kingdom were closer than she had ever imagined.

Chapter 3: The Search Begins
As the Persians continued their conquest of Kshatriya, Prince Xerxes sent his trusted advisor, the General Darius, to search for the princess, knowing that this would give him an upper hand in controlling the expanded kingdom. Darius was a skilled and cunning hunter, and he quickly realized that the princess was being hidden among the commoners. He began his search for the princess, visiting villages and towns, questioning farmers, and searching for any clues that would lead him to her. The villagers were afraid of the ruthless general and they often provided false information to protect themselves. Despite the challenges, Darius was determined to find the princess and bring her back to Prince Xerxes.
Darius was a formidable opponent, and he used his military training to his advantage. He searched every nook and cranny of the kingdom, leaving no stone unturned in his pursuit of the princess. He even threatened the villagers with death and torture if they didn’t provide him with information about the princess’s whereabouts. However, no matter how much he searched, he couldn’t find any clues that would lead him to the princess. Despite the setback, Darius remained optimistic and continued his search, determined to succeed in his mission.
Chapter 4: Ganga's Life in Hiding
Years went by. Ganga lived a simple life with the farmer family, helping them with their work and studying the ancient texts of her kingdom. She was a bright and curious child, and she had a deep connection with the land and its people. Despite the threat of the Persian army, Ganga lived a contented life, surrounded by the love and care of the farmer family who raised her.
However, as General Darius’s search for the princess intensified, Ganga and her family were forced to be constantly on the move to avoid detection. They travelled from village to village, trying to remain hidden from the Persian army and the general’s relentless pursuit. Despite the difficulties, Ganga remained strong and resolute, determined to keep herself and her family safe from harm. Her bravery and strength of character earned her the respect and admiration of the villagers, who looked to her for leadership and guidance.
Chapter 5: A Warrior in Disguise
As Ganga grew older, she met a young man named Arjun who was also living in disguise among the farmers. Arjun was a warrior prince and he had been sent into hiding by his father, the king of a neighbouring kingdom, to protect him from the Persians. He did not reveal his identity as a prince and kept saying to Ganga that he is self-taught in combat by just watching many wars and battles that took place near his village. Arjun and Ganga quickly fell in love, and they spent their days training and dreaming of a future together. He constantly dreamed of holding a sword and passing it on to a true princess one day to slay all the Persian army.

He soon became known as the "Butcher of Kshatriya." His search led him to the village where Ganga was living, and he immediately recognized her as the princess.
Darius's army stormed the village, capturing Ganga and her family, who were now the only ones who knew her true identity. The general's men began to torture them for information on the whereabouts of Princess Jahnavi. But Ganga, her family, and the other villagers refused to reveal her identity, even under the most severe forms of torture.
As the situation grew more dire, Ganga knew she had to take action. She realized that she was the only one who could save her family and the other villagers. She revealed her true identity as Princess Jahnavi, much to the shock of everyone in the village.
