Mythofiction

A short story set in the mythological Ramayana universe about two rakshas guards on top of a wall in Lanka exchanging gossip about their lives and world even as greater events unfold in the background. Music: Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com) Sound Effects: Freesound.org

One hundred years ago, the gods made a prophecy foretelling the coming of a hero who will slay the lord of the Rakshas Dominion. That day is today. It will not pass by like any other day of course. But it will probably not go the way you think it will. If you liked this episode, please leave us a review on Apple Podcasts here (https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/mythofiction/id1478181201) .

It has been six years since the birth of the chosen one. Veer Das no longer commands a Gandharva legion and now works at a desk at the Devbhumi immigration office. There, he gets some interesting visitors, and a job offer.

Veer finally gets to perform before a live audience in the Tooth, but after it ends, he gets dragged into a political discussion after it with an influential Asura.

While recovering from an accident in Asura's Tooth, Veer is visited by an intimidating presence and given a new mission.

Taking a break from our ongoing series (mostly because of my ill health), this week you are getting the answer to the question - where do characters go when they die in a story? Why, they go to their creator of course, and the afterlife is really not all that it is cracked up to be.

Veer Das goes to the inn Kripalu told him about and meets the Prajapati again. The Prajapati asks him to prove his honesty.

The podcast has been on a hiatus for a long time now. This is why.
