Treachery of Mangalore [3]

Mangalore, Vijayanagara Empire.

The second day of the battle was about to start. The morning warmth was settling in, and the soldiers were marching back to the bloody battlefield to fight. The cooled cannons were being hauled to battle.

Parvathi donned her specially made armor. She took a look at Asokan waving at her from the other flank and smiled.

She ordered her commanders to set up the defensive line as they marched. This morning Asokan had asked some of the cannons to be positioned to his side as well.

Some of the crew and cannons were transferred to the side of Asokan.

The army morale was high from the destruction of their enemies yesterday. The cannons were doing a good job. Battlefield was about to witness something deadly today. 

The day had finally dawned upon Parvathi to take off her mask. She looked at the imperial army approaching from a distance. 

'Asokan. Your death will mark the new era of our master's.'
