14th August 1660
After nearly a month of being away from the empire, Vijay finally returned to the Imperial Capital, Bengaluru. Looking at the vague silhouette on the horizon, he felt a little nostalgic. Entering the city, he received a grand welcome from his citizens, with decorative flowers and rose water constantly thrown at him as his carriage moved through the streets of Bengaluru.
Vijay opened his curtains and could see that the streets had already been decorated grandly with rangolis, new paints, colorful arches over the road, colourful decorations, banana leaves for auspiciousness, coconut leaves for coolness, flowers hanging all over the place, and many more.
