Nila Mandapam--

After the previous day's incident, people started expressing their concerns honestly. Some of them were expressing out of fear but most of them were expressing out of trust. If the prince was willing to punish the perpetrator on the spot, then their concerns would also be answered and the justice would definitely be served.

Aditha had entered the chamber early in the morning as many of the village heads were waiting to meet him.

A man in his forties entered the chamber followed by another man.

Man: Vanangugiren, Ilavarase, Nandanar Avaragale.

As he greeted them, Aditha nodded his head.

Nandanar: Amarungal ayya.. Thangal peyar, endha praandhiyathai serndhavargal endru koorungal.

Man 1: En peyar Ayilan, Ivan Salliyan. Naangal aalakkarai pagudhiyil irundhu varugirom, ayya...

Aditha: Sari mudhalil idhai sollungal. Neengal yean ithanai nadukkam kondirukkirirgal???

Salliyan: Ingu vandhu ungalidam edhuvum koora koodadhu endru Engal thalaivarai miratti anuppinar, Ilavarase..

Ayilan: Salliya... edhuvum pesadhe...

Nandanar: Ayya, edhuvum pesamal poneergal aanal ungal nilaiku enna dhaan theervu yerpadum??? Ungal kuraiyai koorungal...

After a moment of contemplation, the village head opened his mouth.

Ayilan: Ayya... En magalaiyum manaiviyaiyum uyirodu kaakka veandumaanal Ingu naan edhuvum kooramal sella veandum...

Tears rolled down his cheeks. Aditha touched Ayilan's hand.

Aditha: Neengal ennai nambi kooralam.. endha kurai iruppinum naane neril vandhu theerthu vaikiren. Idhu naan vanangum Eesan mel aanai...

Ayilan: Ilavarase, Thaangal en kaigalai thoduvadha??? Naan meenava kulathai serndhavan...

Neengal varundhamal ungal Manadhil iruppadhai koorungal...

Ayilan wiped his tears and started narrating his story. The crown prince closed his eyes.

Ayilan: Naangal vaazhvadhu kadalora pagudhi... meen pidithu virpadhe Engal thozhil...

Aanal kadandha sila maadhangalaga engaluku perum prachanaigal yerpadugiradhu, Ilavarase.

Salliyan: Naan Ingu varuvadhu theriyadhu. Illaiyendral enakum en kudumbathirkum Idhe nilai dhaan, Ilavarase.

Ayilan: Avaruku anaithu idangalilum aatkal irukkirargal... Ingu naan ungalidam kooriyadhu eppadiyum avaruku Therindhu vidum...

Aditha gritted his teeth in anger. He then opened his eyes.

Aditha: Neengal mudhalil sendru ungal manaiviyaiyum magalaiyum kaappatrungal...

Ingu engalidam Neengal edhuvum sollavillai... Naangalum edhuvum ketkavillai.. Neengal kooriya Anaithum indha araiyileiye maraindhu vidum.

Ayilan and Salliyan: Nandri Ilavarase... Nandri Ilavarase...

After they left, the crown prince turned to his commander, Veera.

Aditha: Naam indha virundhu mudindhu irandam naal Aalakkarai ku purappada veandum... athanaiyum thayar sei...

Veera: Appadiye Ilavarase...

Nandanar: Ilavarase, Arasar Vara moondru naatkalukku mel aagum Pol irukkiradhe... Eppadi irandu naatkalil selveer???

Aditha: vizha mudindhu irandam naal arasar vandhu viduvar, Nandanare... Varutham Veandom.

Nandanar: Thaangal ariyadhadhu Ondrum illai...

Aditha: Subodha... Aalakkaraiyin Sitrarasan yaar???

Subodhar: Sornapattan.. Neer vala thurai amaichar Neelagandarin Annan Magan, Ilavarase.

Aditha seemed pensive for a moment.

Aditha: Idharku oru mudivu Vara veandum...

Veera: Ilavarase ethanai per pogirom???

Aditha: Naam moovarum... Nammudan serndhu En deviyum varuvaal.

Veera: Deviya??? Matravargaluku sandegam vandhu vidadha Ilavarase???

Aditha: Naam moovar mattum ponaal dhaan sandegam varum..

Aval Vandhaal Avalai naan veliye azhaithu selvadhaga ninaippar.

Veera then nodded his head in understanding.

Veera: Nalla yosanai, Ilavarase...

They then continued with their meetings. Nandanar compiled all the information that was gathered during these meetings.

Camping ground outside the forest...

Poovarasi: Aamam. Indha Poovizhi enge kaanom???

Poovarasi: Unaku vaai neendu vittadhu... aranmanaiku ponadhum mudhalil Poovizhi pinnar nee... enna seigiren endru paar...

Sari porumaiyaga iru... Porchelvi varugiraal.

She looked at the woman approaching her. Even though Porchelvi lost her position temporarily, she didn't lose her attitude. She still walked like she owned everything and that bothered Poovarasi.

Poovarasi: Vaa Porchelvi... Eppadi irukkirai???

She stared at her.

Porchelvi: Enna irukkiradhu koora???

Poovarasi: Naam iruvarum ore veetil pirandhavargal... enna dhaan sakkalathi aanalum un meedhu enaku paasam illamal poguma???

Adhanal dhaan andru kooda naan edhuvum pesavillai... aanal andha Aaravalli unnaiye velai vaanguval endru naan edhir paarkavillai...

Porchelvi scrutinized the person in front of her.

Porchelvi: Aval unnai andru adithu thurathinaal endru ennidam Avalai kurai koorugiraiya??

Poovarasi: Ammaadi... Adhu pondra ennam illai enakku. Appadi naan pazhi vaanga veandum endraal andha Sangamithiraiyai dhaan mudhalil pazhi vaanga veandum..

She left the place in lightning speed.

Avaluku atthanai thunichal irukka koodadhu... kaalathirkum naan adithaal vaangum idathil aval irukka veandum...
