Sambhala, a land veiled from the eyes of man and god alike, breathed magic into its winds and shimmered in its rivers. Here, mountains echoed with the chants of rishis who had transcended time, trees whispered secrets to those who listened, and stars themselves descended during yajnas.
It was on the eighth night of Chaitra, when the moon bled a golden light and the seven planets aligned in a pattern last seen at Rama's birth, that the sky split open with thunder.
From the womb of Sumati, a noble woman of sage lineage, emerged a child with eyes like twin lightning strikes. As he cried, the earth trembled, and a white horse neighed from afar, echoing as if the universe answered.
His father, Vishvajit, a Yogi-warrior of immense purity, held the child and wept. Not from joy, but from the vision he saw the moment his son's skin touched his hand: a world in flames, gods imprisoned, time crumbling, and one boy standing against it all—with a sword bound to his soul.
Suddenly, the baby stopped crying.
His right palm glowed with a birthmark: a sword etched in flame. This wasn't just a sign. It was the Divine Sword Nistram, forged by Vishwakarma, blessed by Vishnu, and meant for no one else.
At the edge of the forest, the white horse, not of mortal breed but descended from Uchchaihshravas, bowed its head as if offering allegiance. It had never been trained, never been ridden.
And yet, it waited.
That night, a council of sages convened in secret. Among them were immortals, astral seers, and one very old man with a bow who called himself Parashurama.
"This is the one," he whispered. "The one foretold. The Final Flame."
