“கிழவருக்குச் சோழ குலத்தாரிடம் எவ்வளவு அபிமானம் என்பது இன்றைக்குத்தான் எனக்குத் தெரிந்தது. இளவரசருக்கு ஆபத்து என்றதும் எப்படித் துடிதுடித்துப் போய் விட்டார்? ஐயா! இளவரசர் தப்பிப் பிழைத்திருக்கக்கூடும் அல்லவா? இறந்துதான் போயிருக்கவேண்டும் என்பது நிச்சயம் இல்லையே?" என்றாள் நந்தினி.

“நிச்சயம் இல்லை; ஆனால் அப்பேர்ப்பட்ட சுழற் காற்றில் கடலில் குதித்தவர் பிழைத்திருப்பது அசாத்தியம்! விதியின் போக்குக்கு நாம் என்ன செய்யமுடியும்?" என்றான் பல்லவன்.

“இதற்கு விதி காரணம் இல்லை; அந்தப் பழையாறை ராட்சஸியின் பேராசைதான் காரணம். தங்களுக்குத் தெரியுமா, ஐயா? குந்தவை தேவிக்குச் சோதிடத்திலும் ரேகை சாஸ்திரத்திலும் அபார நம்பிக்கை. தம்பியின் ஜாதகத்தையும், கைரேகையையும் பார்த்து வைத்துக்கொண்டு அவன் மூன்று உலகையும் ஆளும் சக்கரவர்த்தியாகப் போகிறான் என்று நம்பிக்கை வைத்திருந்தாள். ஐயோ! பாவம்! அந்த அருமைத் தம்பிக்கு இந்த கதி நேர்ந்தது என்று அறியும் போது அவள் எவ்வளவு கஷ்டம் அடைவாள்? அச்சமயம் நான் அவள்கூட இருந்து ஆறுதல் சொல்ல வேண்டும் போலிருக்கிறது!"

இவ்விதம் கூறிய நந்தினியின் குரலில் குதூகலம் தொனித்தது. பல்லவன் ஒருகணம் ஆச்சரியப்பட்டுப் போனான். பிறகு தன் செவிகளில் தான் கோளாறு என்று தீர்மானித்துக் கொண்டான்

“ராணி தாங்கள் எதற்காக ஆறுதல் சொல்லவேண்டும்? அவளுடைய பேராசையினால் நேர்ந்துவிட்ட விபரீதம்தானே இது? அதற்காக அவள் கஷ்டப்பட வேண்டியதுதான்..."

“அது எப்படி ஐயா? அவள் கண்ணில் ஒரு சொட்டுக் கண்ணீர் துளித்தால், நெஞ்சு பதறுகிறவர்கள் சோழ நாட்டில் ஆயிரம் பதினாயிரம் பேர் இருக்கிறார்கள். அவள் சக்கரவர்த்தியின் செல்வப் புதல்வி மூன்று உலகிலும் ஈடு இணையற்ற அழகி!"

“நானும் ஒரு சமயம் அவ்வாறுதான் நினைத்திருந்தேன்! அதாவது, தங்களைப் பார்ப்பதற்கு முன்னால்!"

"என்னைப் பார்த்த பிறகு என்ன நினைக்கிறீர்கள்?"

“குந்தவை தேவியின் அழகு தங்கள் பாதச் சுண்டு விரலின் அழகுக்கு இணையாகாது என்றுதான்."

“இப்போது இப்படித்தான் ��ொல்வீர்கள். நாளைக்கு அவளைப் பார்த்தால் நான் ஒருத்தி இவ்வுலகில் இருக்கிறேன் என்பதையே மறந்துவிடுவீர்கள்!”

“It is today that I realised how much devotion the old man has to the Chozha clan. How distraught is he the moment he heard that the Prince was in danger? Sir! Isn’t there a chance that the Prince might have survived? It is not certain that he is dead, is it?” asked Nandini.

“It is not certain, but it is improbable that then man who jumped into the sea in the midst of a whirlwind could have survived! What can we do against the course of Fate?” stated the Pallavan.

“Fate is not the reason for this, instead it is the greed of the demoness in Pazhayarai that is the reason. Did you know, sir? Kundavai Devi has an abundance of belief in astrology and palmistry. She believed on seeing her younger brother’s horoscope and the creases on his palms that he would be an Emperor ruling the three worlds. Alas! Poor woman! How much grief will befall her when she will come to know of the dire straits her cherished brother perished in? I feel like I should be there with her at that time to offer words of consolation!”

When Nandini pronounced thus, her voice was filled with excitement. The Pallavan was astonished for a moment. Afterwards, he decided that the fault lay in his hearing.

“My Queen! Why should you offer words of consolation? Hasn’t this dire occurrence happened because of her greed? For that, she should suffer…”

“How could that be so, sir? If a single tear splashes from her eyes, the hearts of tens and thousands of people in the Chozha country quiver. She is the Emperor’s adored daughter, a beauty with no equal in the three worlds!”

“I too thought so at a point of time! That is, before I met you!”

“What did you think after meeting me?”

“That Kundavai Devi’s beauty is not even equal to the beauty of your littlest toe.”

And so we see Parthibendran in all his creepy glory. Names truly don’t match the character of those who bear it sometimes, like in his case.

He’s also exhibiting a severe case of selective blindness and deafness, as do most men who are graced by Nandini’s presence. Is lust truly so powerful?

In another note, Nandini does seem a little surprised at the depth of Periya Pazhuvettarayar’s regard for the Chozha siblings, particularly Arulmozhi in this case. I wouldn’t blame her, what with the man calling Kundavai a demoness and such.

And Nandini, as usual, is a compelling character, who seems to almost gloat at Arulmozhi’s “death” I think that would not have been the case had she truly gotten to know him, however.

"Have I ever refused to play a hand you've dealt, Nandhini?" Her gaze falters when that name crosses his lips, rushing to seal a decade's gap and settling there as if it had been caressing his lips all this while.

"Shouldn't have dangled him in front of me in the first place."

"Hurt him - Karikalan," if his voice had been longing, hers is loath personified. "And I swear I-"

"You've sworn a lot of things, love. Don't tempt me into testing how many of these new oaths you plan to honor."

There was a dark edge to his look, one full of resentment and accusation. Misplaced, but Nandhini did not feel inclined to correct him.

"I don't care if you've taken thousand lovers and made them thousand promises. It's your life, live it as you wish. But dare not try to lay its blame on my door. That I have played you into this, made you into this. I could if I want to."

On a whim he draws her closer, watches how her lashes flutter against his exhale.

"You've just handed me your reins, out of your own free will Nandhini. You can't make me guilty for tugging on them now."

"Your hatred has blinded you!"

"Maybe. Maybe I'm seeing for the first time. I'm seeing that you are willing to remain where you are neither wanted, nor appreciated to keep your word to that dead Pandiyan - when you wouldn't, you didn't stay where you were honored and cherished despite your word given to me!"

Her nails, when they dug into his arm drew blood. Nandhini didn't care.

"Oh?" Her voice drops into a hiss.

"That's what you see? You think - what exactly do you think? Honored? Cherished? As if Tanjavur was lying at my feet!"

"I would have laid that and more at your feet! I would have -"

"And yet, this is what you think of me now." With a forceful tug Nandhini freed herself from his grasp and stepped back.

"This is where we stand. I'm a woman from a fallen city and you are its conqueror. Do not cross this line."

"No. You are a woman of the empire and I am its heir."

Despite the venom in her eyes, so stark for him to see, Aditha cannot help himself but take a step closer. The eternal night of those eyes is bottomless, simmering with an emotion that he struggled to put a finger to.

"And I swear by you, they are yet to draw a line that I would not cross for you."

“அப்படியானால் தாங்கள் கிழவரை அழைத்து கொண்டு உடனே நடையைக் கட்டுங்கள். நான் இருந்து பார்த்துக் கொண்டு வருகிறேன்."

“நாங்கள் இருந்தால் என்ன?"

"கிழவர் இருந்தால் இளவரசருக்கு இராஜ மரியாதைகள் செய்து அழைத்துக்கொண்டு போகப் பார்ப்பார், காரியமெல்லாம் கெட்டுப் போகும்."

"மந்திரவாதி! நானும்தான் கேட்கிறேன். அவர்கள் இறக்க வேண்டிய அவசியம் என்ன? மதுராந்தகனுக்குப் பட்டம் கட்டிவிட எல்லாரும் சம்மதித்து விட்டால்...”

Context: Part of the Nandini’s conversation with Ravidasan. They are discussing t he possibility that Arulmozhi might be alive.

“If that is so, you accompany the old man (Pazhuvettarayar) and depart immediately. I shall stay here and return after searching.”

“What is the issue if we stay?”

“The old man would want to extend royal respect to the Prince and depart with him. Everything would be ruined.”

“Sorcerer! I too want to ask. What is the need for them to die? If everyone agrees to crown Madhurantakan…”

Hmm. So she wants only Aditha dead? (Technically) This lady’s motivations seem kinda nebulous.
