?The King and His Crown ?

                                        

                                              
Lakshmi's heart pounded as she walked through the palace gates. She couldn't believe it  she had traveled back in time. The grandeur of the world around her was overwhelming. Guards with ornate armor, courtiers in exquisite attire, and servants bustling around.

Suddenly, a regal figure appeared. It was Duryodhan, the eldest Kaurava, his expression one of strength and resolve. His presence commanded attention, and yet, there was a deep sadness in his eyes, a weariness that only someone who had seen too many battles would know.

Lakshmi's heart skipped a beat. This was the Duryodhan she had read about, the warrior, the son of Dhritarashtra. But there was something different about him here, something raw and unspoken. She had imagined him to be cold, but there was a warmth, a vulnerability that surprised her.

As Duryodhan walked past her, their eyes met, and for a moment, she felt an odd pull.

"Who are you?" he asked, his voice deep, yet soft.

"I'm... I'm just a traveler," Lakshmi stammered, still stunned by the moment. "I-I think I've come from a different time."

He eyed her with skepticism. "A traveler from another time? How can that be?"

Before she could explain further, a vision overtook her  a scene from the future. Duryodhan's death, his final moments in the battlefield. She saw it so vividly, as if it were her own memory. She gasped, and Duryodhan stepped closer, his gaze searching for hers.

"What did you see?" His voice was urgent.

Lakshmi hesitated. She knew the pain and the anger that had consumed Duryodhan during the war, but telling him the future could be dangerous. Yet, she felt an unexplainable urge to speak.

"You are destined for great conflict, Duryodhan. The war will change everything. But there is more  there is a chance for you to rewrite your 온라인카지노게임."

His face darkened, his jaw tightening. "Rewrite my fate? Do you think I am unaware of what I have been forced to become? The world has already decided my destiny."

Lakshmi knew then that her journey wasn't just about witnessing hi온라인카지노게임. It was about changing it.
