Photo Prompt: Mondays Finish The Story

It was night & she would have to return empty-handed to the palace,
What would she answer the Queen? Not accomplishing task is a disgrace...

She had to fulfill all the tasks successfully to be considered for marriage.
It was all her fault for falling in love with the prince & the challenge.

The prince would marry the one, who completed all the tasks before dawn.
The silence was deafening & the darkness overpowering as she was a pawn...

Princess Or Witch?

The royal astrologer was being consulted about the Prince’s horoscope.

“He will have two ladies in his life shortly- a Witch & a Princess…”, he predicted confidently.

The Queen was very worried.

She inquired, “But, whom will he marry? How will he recognize the right girl for him?”

PAUSitive Choice!

Once upon a time when there were Kings & Queens, there was a Princess named Roopwati. She was very beautiful. 

When it was time for Roopwati to get married, her parents fixed up a Swayamvar* for her. 

Many eligible young Princes had gathered.

Roopwati was secretly observing them from her hiding-place.

Prince Om caught her eye at first sight.

His clean shaven look bowled her over!

Roopwati had set a screening challenge for them. Whoever cleared the initial ‘test’ would proceed to the next round that was the actual Swayamvar.

Her father, the King, was apprehensive if anyone could clear the tough test set by his daughter.

Roopwati found herself praying that may Prince Om qualify!
