With the first part of the curse broken through their weddings, Aja-akshar and Budhl-Padma, as well as Ananta-hara and Ashvi-Aparuja, felt a surge of hope. The joy of their unions lifted the weight of destiny from their shoulders, but the journey was far from over.
In the days following the ceremonies, the couples gathered in the garden of the palace, surrounded by blooming flowers and the fragrance of new beginnings. They sought the counsel of Karna and his eternal consorts, Vrushali, Uruvi, and Supriya. The urgency to fully break the curse pressed upon them like a shadow.
"Now that we are married, we must turn our focus to you," Budhl-Padma said, looking earnestly at Karna. "What must we do to ensure that you and your soulmates can also marry?"
Karna nodded, his expression serious. "The curse binds not only my fate but also that of my beloveds. To fully break it, we must all unite our families and gain their blessings."
Ashvi-Aparuja leaned forward, her brow furrowed in thought. "Perhaps we should write to our families, expressing our desires. They might be more receptive now that we have fulfilled our destinies."
As the conversation deepened, Karna took a deep breath and began to write a letter to his family. He poured his heart onto the parchment, detailing his wish to marry Vrushali, Uruvi, and Supriya.
Dear Family,
Today, I write with a heart full of love and hope. As you know, I am bound by the curses of our past, but now, with the blessing of the divine, I am ready to break free.
I wish to marry my soulmates, Vrushali, Uruvi, and Supriya. They have stood by me through thick and thin, and together, we can reclaim our destinies. Your support means the world to me, and I hope you will accept this union with open hearts.
With all my love,
Karna
Meanwhile, Vrushali, Uruvi, and Supriya gathered in a private corner of the palace to compose their own letters, determination etched on their faces.
"Let's express our desires clearly," Vrushali suggested. "Our families must understand that this is a matter of love and destiny."
As they wrote, their letters echoed with conviction.
Dear Family,
I hope this letter finds you well. Today, I write not just as your daughter but as a woman in love.
I wish to marry Karna, a man of great honor and strength. He has been my rock, and together we can pave a path toward a brighter future. I urge you to consider this union, for it is one written in the stars.
With love,
Vrushali
The others followed suit, each letter carrying the weight of their hearts and dreams.
Dear Family,
In this moment, I pen my deepest wishes. I long to marry Karna, a man who embodies courage and loyalty. He is my soulmate, and our love transcends the bounds of this world.
I seek your blessing in this matter of the heart. Together, we can break the chains of the past.
Yours always,
Uruvi
Dear Family,
With a heart full of hope, I reach out to you. I wish to marry Karna, a man destined for greatness. He has shown me what love truly means, and our union will bring forth a new era for us all.
Please support us in this endeavor to break free from the curses that bind us.
In love,
Supriya
Once the letters were finished, they sealed them with resolve. Karna's eyes gleamed with gratitude as he read the letters of his beloveds, feeling a rush of warmth from their unwavering support.
"Together, we will face whatever challenges arise," Karna declared, determination solidifying his voice. "Our families will understand the truth of our hearts."
As they prepared to send the letters, the sun dipped below the horizon, casting a golden hue over their gathering—a symbol of the unity that had been forged and the battles yet to come.
