Nikil reads the warning letter sent by Ragini. He laughs and puts that letter in fire. "what a woman can do???" he laughs.

Just then he looks out from window and gets mesmerized looking at a woman. She is laughing and talking with one girl and boy. Nikil comes to corridor and keeps looking at her.

That boy: Samragni, however we have changed our get ups and came here. Hope no one recognizes us.

Ragini: silent Sanskar. Don't call me Samragni. Call me friend for now. we came here to know this kingdom's situations.

Swara: what is the need for us to come out like this? we could have send spy.

Ragini: I want to know everything on myself. Bcz, problem here is complicated.

From far, two other boys are observing them secretly.

Boy: o ho bhayya, what is the need of observing her secretly like this? if you keep on doing things like this when do you rule kingdom?

Laksh: chup re. samragni, my goddess has come means there might be lot of work here. Moreover, I have to give this love letter.

He says and kisses the letter. His brother beats his head.

Ragini: haa...I feel like someone is observing me...

Swara: don't feel more. Me and Sanskar will go and enquire in that shop. You go to that shop ok??

Ragini: ok...

Swara and Sanskar goes to a shop. Ragini turns her head and happens to see the palace corridor and amazes to see that Nikil is observing her from long time. He was looking lovingly at her.

Ragini: did he get doubt or what??

Ragini hurries to go near swasan, but accidentally bumps into Laksh. She raises her head and sees him.

Ragini: I'm sorry...

Laksh: why sorry? I have to say thanks for this chance...

Ragini recognizes his voice.

Ragini: you??

Laksh: yes my goddess...

Ragini: y r u following me??

Laksh: what other work will I have my empress..?

Ragini: shh...I'm in disguise here. Don't call me like that. By the way, how did you recognize me??

Laksh: your eyes....

Ragini looks into his eyes: I'm not going to fall to your words. and, I'm never going to fall in any man's love.

Suddenly, they are surrounded by some soldiers.

One soldier: maharaj has ordered to bring you to court.

Laksh: who the hell is he to order us? Do you know who is she and who am i??

Ragini stamps on his foot.

Ragini: ok, we will come.

The soldiers are taking them into court.

Laksh: what is this goddess, why we have to go??

Ragini slowly: my plan shouldn't be leaked. Moreover, I have to know about his palace also. We were thinking how to go inside. But the chance itself came...

Swara and Sanskar shocks that they were taking into court. They secretly join in those soldiers.

Ragini and Laksh are brought before Nikil. Nikil is looking at Ragini mesmerizingly.

Nikil: hey beautiful girl, who are you? I have never seen such a heavenly girl like you. I would like to marry you..!

Laksh tights his hand in anger.

Laksh: you can't marry her..! bcz, she is my wife...!!

He says and drags Ragini near him holding her shoulder. She amazingly looks at him.

Nikil looks Ragini again: is that true dear? What you will get staying with him? Marry me and you can be queen to this kingdom.

Laksh starts laughing badly to his words. all look confused at him.

Laksh: queen to this kingdom? Do you know who is she???

Ragini pinches him. He becomes silent.

Nikil: leave that monkey's words aside dear. You tell....

Laksh: hey I'm not monkey. You are only monkey prince..!!

Nikil gets angry with his words.

Nikil: tie and beat this stupid until he dies..!!

Soldiers drag Laksh and gives him on blow.

Ragini shouts: Laksh...

And she throws a flower vase on one soldier. He falls down. Everyone looks amazingly at Ragini. Nikil moves back.

Ragini takes out her sword and starts fighting with them. Laksh keeps looking at her lovingly, when his goddess is saving from those evils.

Nikil surprises, "how a normal girl can fight like this??"

Then Ragini's cloth on shoulder goes aside and he happens to see the Royal mark on her shoulder.

He amazes, "Samragni..!!"

Sanskar swara who peeps into palace sees the condition and they creates the artificial fog, Ragini understands it's Sanskar's plan.

Ragini calls Laksh.

"Prince Laksh, run..!!"

But Laksh is lost in her. then she holds his hand and starts running. Laksh keeps looking at her.

However, they step out of palace and run into forest.

Ragini swara and Sanskar start laughing.

Ragini: wow, that's a great adventure.

But, Laksh is still looking at her. she sees him. She ties a cloth to his wound.

Ragini: don't get attached because, once you helped me, and now I helped you..!

Laksh: I love you Ragini...

Ragini becomes silent. Laksh brother comes running near him.

Bro: bhayya, are you safe? I was really scared, when they took you inside.

Laksh: oh yaa... I have to give a letter to you...

He searches for the love letter he wrote. Then he reminds the letter was fell in that palace.

Laksh shouts: no... I lost it..!!!

Ragini Sanskar and Swara returns back to palace.

Ragini: conditions are very worst in that kingdom. Is this is happening only after I came to throne?

Sanskar: probably, before that there was good ruling over there.

Ragini: how can we overcome that problem? War is only way I think...

Sanskar and Swara looks at her.

Nikil is thinking: she is empress??!!! But, why did she come here??

He holds Laksh's love letter.

Nikil: samragni is impossible... she has a love story? See, what I will do now...

Next day in sabha,

Ragini is speaking: it is the woman who takes all the care of family. And I don't like she has to be just the house hold worker in my kingdom. I want to see the women empowerment. Just imagine, if even women start holding the official responsibilities, this empire will develop a lot and we can be inspiration to other kingdoms too.

Laksh who was listening her speech,

"See bro, my goddess says correct every time..!"

Bro: ofo...you plz stop your poetry.

Ragini looks at Laksh once.

Laksh: haa...see...my goddess has seen me.

Bro: she is seeing everyone. She has to see everyone.

Ragini continues: that's why, I'm going to start new schools for just girls. They will be taught with all education and even war arts.

Then they listen a laugh. All look at the person. He is Nikil.

Dp: king Nikil??

Nikil: a woman who is bent to a man can be inspiration to other women??

No one understands his words.

Dp: what nonsense you are talking? A woman who has a man is weak? Moreover, Samragni never bent to any man till now...

Nikil laughs again.

"Then what about this love letter??"

Laksh shocks looking at it, because it is his letter. Ragini looks at it confusedly.

Ragini looks at the letter confused. Nikil opens the letter.

Nikil: do you know my courtiers, this love letter to whom who wrote..

Laksh stands: king nikil, don't you have shame. Everyone will have their own personal life.

Nikil turns to Laksh: why are you so worried prince Laksh..as if you wrote that letter..

Laksh shouts: nikil..!!

Ragini orders: prince Laksh, this is court. Behave yourself.

Laksh sits silently.

Nikil: empress always loves me. That's why she wrote letter to me..!

Everyone shock with his statement. Ragini loses her temper.

Ragini: what the heck you are talking Nikil??

Nikil looks at her wittily.

"Then what is this letter my empress,

You are my love, you are my life.

Come to me, lock me in ur love..."

Ragini tights her hand. Laksh stands.

"He is lying. That letter..." he is about to tell something.

Ragini orders: Prince Laksh, get out of the court.

Laksh shocks with her words: samragni..??

Ragini: plz don't mess anything and go out.

Laksh goes out upset. She keeps looking at him.

Ragini looks angrily at Nikil. He is smirking.

Dp: how can we believe that it is really written by samragni..??

Nikil: the raaja mudrika of Ragini devi is at the end of letter.

He shows the mark. Everyone including Ragini shock. Because that ring will be near Ragini only and she is supposed to put that mark on personal letters. She is confused how the mark went to him. But the ring is to her hands only.

Dp: samragni, what you will answer to this letter now?

Ragini becomes helpless. People start taking something. Then Adarsh gets up.

Adarsh: king nikil, when did you got that letter.

Nikil: i got it evening yesterday.

Adarsh: samragni was busy in observing some palace constructions from yesterday afternoon to late evening. Me, Durga prasad ji and many heads are with her. So, there is no point that she could send letter to you then. If, you say she might have sent it to you before, the letter doesn't take less than 2 hours to reach you. So, this is not Samragni who has done it. Someone else has sent it with her name.

Now Nikil gets tensed.

Nikil: o..i see. What I would know.. I thought samragni herself has sent it...

Ragini gestures something to Sanskar with her eyes. He nods his head and goes out. No one observes them.

Nikil: I'm sorry empress, i will leave now.

Says Nikil and goes out. When he is going alone in corridor Sanskar catches him. Ragini ends the court and comes near them. Nobody observes them.

Ragini comes and slaps Nikil. He looks angrily at her.

Ragini: how dare you to throw such disgusting things on me..!! Tell me, why did you do Like this??

Nikil: a man can do anything for you Ragini....

Laksh comes and beats him.

Laksh: don't take her name..!

Nikil smirks: you will pay for your deeds samragni. You did a stupid thing by beating me like this. I thought I could trap you and marry you with that letter. But, that adarsh has saved you. But, who is gonna save this empire..??

Sanlak and Ragini shock.

Sanskar: what happened to the empire..??

Nikil laughs: Raajat is on way to attack your empire with his huge army. If you would have agreed to marry me, I would have helped you with my army.

Sanskar holds Nikil's neck.

San: how do you know that he is going to attack us..??

Nikil: because, i helped them..!!

Ragini slaps Nikil again. He falls down.

Rag: arrest this rascal.

Sanskar takes away him to jail.

Ragini soon arranges the meeting with officials.

Ragini: Raajat is going to come again. We have to be alert.

Dp: I will send spy to see the number of army he is coming with.

Adarsh: i will alert all the soldiers.

Ragini: no chote papa, senani will look about the soldiers. You prepare the plan to attack enemies by spy's given data.

Adarsh agrees.

Laksh: i will inform all the province kings.

Ragini: No prince Laksh. I guess there are some internal enemies for us just as Nikil. It can't be helped with those kings. Informing them, will lead to further lead to damage. So it's better not informing them.

Dp: then samragni, how are we going to arrange extra army? Raajat is coming with huge crowd. We need at least five kingdoms support.

Ragini: mamasri, we don't know who are enemies and who are friends. We shall take only prince laksh's help for now.

Laksh nods his head and goes away to keep his army ready. All the arrangements were begun.

Ragini sits sadly at window. No one are there. Dp comes near her.

Dp: what Samragni..why are you looking sad??

Ragini: why do wars happen mama sri? Why do people war? Everyone's life is a life. Then why don't they give value to others life? Why kings have thirst of occupying kingdoms?

Dp: samragni, but we can't change enemies right. They will come on a war because to occupy us. Make us as their slaves. Then what we have to do? Get ready and fight back..!

Ragini: but, the word 'war' is making me nervous. It's making me cold. I know i'm a warrior. But, i have never faced any wars. I'm getting scared. I'm feeling ashamed on myself for being like this.

Ragini's hands are trembling and she bent her head.

Dp: Empress, for suppose, a tiger is attacking a small boy, then what does his mother do? Will she be calm and run away??

Ragini raises her head: no mama sri, she will fight with that tiger and save that boy at any cost.

Dp: why?

Ragini: because she is his mother and nothing is important to mother than her kids.

Dp: you are also the mother to this empire samragni..!

Ragini looks amazed.

Dp: this whole empire and people are like your children. For every king his kingdom people are his children. Now tell me samragni, if your children are in trouble do you stay like this scared. Do you want to step back..!!!???

Ragini with firm voice: never...! I will fight with those dangerous enemies and save my children..!!!

Dp holds her shoulders in appreciation. "That's what the Samragni means...!"

Ragini: now, i don't have any doubts.

{{Guys, this tiger example is inspired from a telugu novel it's all about Queen Rudrama devi's story. There also queen Rudrma gets depressed in that way, then her guru and minister, siva desikulu enlightens her mind. She is a south Indian Queen who once ruled vast empire. Just wanted to share that one incident, which also inspired me a lot. }}

Nikil is in jail. He is getting angry on Ragini. Someone with a mask comes near him.

That man: what have you done..? i have sent you empress ring for the mark. But, why did you use it for love letter??

Nikil: bcz, i wanted to marry her. So, that I can rule this empire. If i say before that all court, she will be humiliated. And she will left with no choice..!

Then that man grabs his neck.

"Don't ever have the wish of becoming ruler to this empire. Bcz, it is me who has to become. Do whatever you want with Ragini. But, throne is mine..!!" he shouts.

Nikil: ok..ok... I'm sorry. Plz leave me..!

That man leaves Nikil and opens the jail door.

He: go and bring Raajat's army here. He will help us to occupy, then i can take over empire.

Nikil: why Raajat will give you empire if he occupies??

That man pushes Nikil. "Do as I say, go away..!"

Nikil goes away silently. That man's face is not shown.

Ragini is looking all the war arrangements. Sanskar is coming from the jail side.

Ragini: Sanskar, what work do you have at the jail side now???

He looks on without answering anything.
