Chapter I — The Bhagavad-Gita

Sanjaya, the king’s trusted charioteer and seer, begins painting a vivid picture of the battlefield, where warriors from both sides stand ready, armed with conviction and duty.

Bribed
Bribed begins not with shame, but with an honest, loving surrender. The narrator admits they are no match for the soft, persuasive power of a grandchild’s hug or pleading glance. Rules are remembered, but only briefly, before they are softened by laughter or quiet tears. The battle is gentle and always lost with a smile. A slice of cake is given too close to dinner. A second helping of watermelon is allowed, even though it’s already led to stomach pain once before. It isn’t forgetfulness. It’s a…-

Ballad: Bob Polter
Bob Polter stood as a familiar figure among the English working class—strong in stature, calloused from labor, and unrefined but honest in his dealings. His life moved in rhythm with pickaxes and pub nights, where smoke curled above battered tables and laughter echoed after long hours of toil. Though no stranger to ale and the occasional brawl, Bob wasn’t a man adrift in vice—his habits never fully consumed his character. He wasn’t perfect, but his choices, even flawed, were human and relatable.…-

Ballad: Lieutenant-Colonel Flare
Lieutenant-Colonel Flare inspires a reimagining of leadership, far removed from the noise of battle and the glitter of medals. His command is not marked by discipline through fear, but by nurturing through kindness. Among his ranks, soldiers live more like poets than warriors, exchanging drills for delicate crafts, and treating every task—no matter how domestic—with gentle pride. This softness, however, is not weakness. It reflects a conscious rejection of violence, where strength is measured in mercy…-

The Promise of Helen
The Promise of Helen opens with the soft echo of a vow reaching beyond time, as a voice calls out not only to a woman once lost but to an entire era of romance thought buried. It speaks not just to Helen, the individual, but to a spirit once believed gone—of love unbound by death, of memory refusing silence. In this vision, the beloved rises again, not from the grave in sorrow, but in radiance, drawn back by the sheer strength of devotion. The passage is less concerned with realism than with the deep…-

Chapter XIV — The Bhagavad-Gita
Chapter XIV begins with Krishna offering a teaching he declares as the highest form of wisdom—knowledge that frees the soul from the cycle of birth and death. He uses the image of a cosmic womb, describing nature as the mother that holds all creation. Into this vast maternal force, Krishna sows the seed of all living beings, identifying himself as the eternal father. This union of divine force and material nature is what gives life its many forms.

When Mother Sleeps
When Mother Sleeps evokes a quiet reverence for a role so instinctive yet so often overlooked. It begins by painting an image of deep maternal rest, a sleep earned through endless hours of giving and tending. The world may continue to rumble with all its noise—storms outside or clattering indoors—but it does not touch her slumber. In that moment, she is sheltered, perhaps not by walls, but by the peace of knowing her child is safe. Her rest, though, is never complete. It exists only in the space…-
