The Princess Who Ran Away - eBook

<p>The land of Saagaradatthi is a strange and idyllic place. Hidden away like a jewel in the Indian Ocean, it was famed for being only an abode of snakes and sandalwood trees till humans came to inhabit it.</p><p>The country followed a system of monarchy which allowed the women of the royal family to rule, but on a condition - no princess of the land could be viewed by the people till either her coronation or her marriage; whichever came first. Neither could the princess see the land or her people that she was to rule till the conditions were met.</p><p>This tradition went on for centuries till the day Princess Kairavi ran away...</p><p>For a group of people who were unfazed by no technology, tsunamis and snake poison, the princess running away was catastrophic. No one however, was more affected than Dhruva Kayath, a member of the Cabinet and a royal hopeful. His dreams of becoming the King of Saagaradatthi vanished with the princess. From plotting to change the constitution, to finding unlikely allies in a country opposed to change, Dhruva tried everything. But a sudden encounter with a beautiful commoner sets him on an adventure that alters not just his destiny but also the destiny of Saagaradatthi.</p>
