Ira looked down, thinking why this all is happening. She looked at Neisha and asked "Are you fine with grandfather going on war?"
Neisha nod with reassurance "I am. Once this war is over, he will leave all his responsibilities on Raksheet and his father and I will leave all my responsibilities on you and Avanya and we will rest. We will be able to spend more time with eachother. And this war is important too. I always wanted this enmity to end so that my family can live peacefully. But I didn't thought it will end like this. The opponent is mostly connected to your grandfather so it would be better if he participate in this war. Your grandfather know more about Bayar and Bakshi family. It will be an advantage."
Ira nod and smiled slightly, thinking how thoughtful and intelligent Neisha is. Even in the situation like this, she is thinking practically. Even if she don't want Abhiveera to go on war at this age, she is still supporting him just for her kingdom and family. Ira can feel what Neisha is going through. Ira just got married to Raksheet and now she have to let him go on war and it hurts so much then what Neisha must be feeling. She must have thought to spend the remaining life happily with her husband but her husband have to face the war with his biggest enemy.
Viraaj was sleeping on his bed, looking too weak and sick. His skin has turned pale and his cheekbones are visible. He have lost a lot of weight. Ankush looked at him and his eyes turned moist. He looked at Agastya and said.
"What do we do now? His health is deteriorating. I can't see him like this."
Agastya nod and side hugged Ankush "Me too. Veer couldn't poison him at all. I never saw him entering in his majesty's chamber since his father scolded him. I think the previous poison is still in his blood. We should summon the healer. I go talk to her highness. You stay with him. I will be back soon."
Ankush nod and kneeled down beside Viraaj's bed, looking at him worriedly. Agastya left from there and went to meet Daksha.
He found her in kitchen and said hurriedly. "Your highness, can you please come outside. I need to talk about something."
"Sure." She replied and came outside. She can feel that Agastya want to talk about something serious.
They came out of the kitchen and walked upto some distance.
"What you wanted to talk about?"
"Your highness, his majesty is looking too weak. I think we should summon the healer. His health is deteriorating." He said hurriedly in worry.
"I knew it!" Daksha said in frustration. "I told his highness that his majesty is looking more weak, we should summon the healer but he said I am overthinking." She looked at Agastya and said "Tell a soldier to summon the healer right now. I am going to see his majesty."
Agastya nod and ran away to tell the soldier to summon royal healer and Daksha left to see Viraaj.
She entered in the chamber and saw Viraaj sleeping on his bed and Ankush kneeling down beside the bed, his hands on bed and his chin resting on his hands. Tears were falling down from his eyes as he was watching Viraaj sleeping to forget the pain. He was wiping the tears repeatedly but it were flowing like river.
Daksha's eyes soften to see Ankush and she went inside the chamber. As Ankush heard someone entering in the chamber, he turned his gaze towards the door and quickly stood up after seeing Daksha. He wiped the tears with his sleeves and stood at the corner.
"G-Greetings, your h-highness." He tried to say.
Daksha went towards him and cupped his cheek with one hand. "Are you alright?"
He nod and bited his lower lip to control the urge to cry after looking at Viraaj.
"His majesty is fine. No need to cry. I told Agastya to summon the healer. Once the healer will check him, he will be fine. I know you love his majesty. But don't cry like this. It will hurt him too." She tried to console him. As she was trying to consol him, she remembered Ira. She would have reacted the same way as Ankush. She would have cried the whole day after seeing Viraaj in this state. Ira will be devastated if anything happens to Viraaj.
Daksha looked at Viraaj and went towards him. She sat down on the bed and held his hand to check the temperature. As usual, it's high.
She sighed disappointedly and looked at Ankush.
"Ankush, will you do me a favour?" She asked.
Ankush immediately nod and wiped his tears "Anything, your highness. Just order me."
She smiled at him and said "Bring some cold water and a clean cloth." She shifted her gaze towards Viraaj "We have to reduce his temparature. He is having fever."
"I will be back." He said and ran out of the chamber.
He came back after sometime and placed the tray near the bed. He wetted the cloth and gave it to Daksha. She first wiped Viraaj's hands and arms to reduce the temperature and then placed the cloth on his forehead. Soon Agastya came with the healer and he started checking Viraaj.
"Why didn't you called me before? He has lost a lots of weight." Healer said.
